I cannot say enough amazing things about Let's Pretend Catering! They were one of the first wedding vendors that we booked for our September 2023 wedding a couple of years back and was a fantastic decision. Firstly, the level of professionalism of this catering company was top-notch. From initial consultation and communication to our menu tasting to on the day, the team was exceptional. It's a great feeling when you feel like your vendors have everything under control and with Let's Pretend I knew that they always did. They would coordinate directly with Vermont Tent ensuring that they had everything they needed and matched the aesthetic and our vision for our wedding day. They listened and applied all changes to be exactly what we envisioned for our wedding day menu from small garnishes to the dishes or how things were served. On the day, they were constantly checking in with me to see if I needed anything, making sure I was eating enough, they even made me a mini cheese board to make sure I was able to enjoy the cocktail hour food or that my dinner was still hot after we snuck away for sunset photos. Overall, they made sure that everything was running smoothly. I truly felt that myself, my husband, and our guests were so well taken care of by the Let's Pretend team. Lastly, the guests seriously could not stop RAVING about the food at our wedding. Saying that it was the best wedding food they've ever had and was absolutely incredible. We've received several requests for recipes for some of the items served at our wedding because, even a month later, people are still talking about how good the food was. Food is such an important aspect of your wedding celebration. We opted for family-style dining because we wanted it to feel like a dinner party with the people who matter the most to us in our lives and it was absolutely perfect. Let's Pretend Catering delivered on all fronts and we could not be happier with our experience with them.Let's Pretend Catering's reply:
Olivia, thank you for such a beautiful review and for sharing your experience with our company. One of the best aspects of this field is seeing concepts become reality. I enjoyed meeting you and working with you to plan such a beautiful day. -

The food at our wedding could not have been more perfect. Let’s Pretend Catering is the best wedding food I have ever eaten, hands down. They were also amazing to work with. My husband and I had a wonderful tasting with them at their location in South Hero. All of our selections were perfectly executed on our wedding day. Their staff was delightful and attentive, even going so far as to bring my husband and I our own appetizer plates while we were taking photos during cocktail hour. I highly recommend Let’s Pretend Catering for your wedding or event – I promise it will be the best decision you make! -

We had to replan our whole wedding to downsize due to COVID - which, ultimately is a decision we do not regret. As a result, we had to find new vendors, and catering was a big one to shift. Luckily, we found Let's Pretend and had them cater our new, smaller wedding. We did not get to do a tasting due to timing.
Let's Pretend was incredible. Before even getting to the food and service, Brandi and Liane were communicative, informative, and answered any and all questions I had. The options presented looked delicious, and we quickly decided on LP for our wedding day food. It was a decision we do not regret in the least. Everything we got was absolutely delicious - the hors d'oeuvres, the meal, the late night snacks we decided to get. Our guests raved about everything to us after. The service was incredible as well - our day did not go exactly according to plan, but everyone was so wonderful, and accommodating, and we actually had a tray of apps brought over to us during our photos without us having to say a word, which was so thoughtful. Everyone was constantly making sure myself and my husband had everything we needed. They took precautions to make sure their servers were safe during all this as well.
Overall, I do not have a single complaint about Let's Pretend and the service on our wedding day. Without hesitation, I would recommend them if you're looking for delicious, seasonal food that everyone would like! -

Im so happy I hired Let's Pretend Catering for our special day. They were so easy to work with and really helped tie all the final pieces together.
The food was DELICIOUS! They source everything from local farms and vendors which was really important to me. Our friends and family were raving about how good it was for weeks. They even did our wedding cake! I can't recommend them enough! -

Christine Sent on 02/12/2017We had the most amazing experience with Let’s Pretend! As an out-of-state couple, planning out catering appointments and finding out everything we needed to take care of could have been very hectic, but the team at Let’s Pretend worked with our schedule, scheduled a tasting and walk through during wedding season to accommodate us, and helped us stay organized on on-top of our deadlines. The day-of coordination was more than we could have hoped for. The team set up all of our items (guestbook, centerpieces, flowers, everything!). They ensured we were fed and got drinks during cocktail hour, and had specific staff check in on us throughout the night. Our manager worked with the other vendors to ensure our day stayed on schedule and we could relax. It rained on our wedding day, and the folks from Let’s Pretend made quick changes to keep all of our guests comfortable, warm, and fed. Above all of that, the food was AMAZING and our guests couldn’t stop talking about it, especially during cocktail hour. We could not recommend these guys more! -
User2491257 Sent on 01/02/2016The unique dishes, quality of food and the beautiful presentation is enough to make Let's Pretend my caterer of choice for every catering event I have. However, to top it off, Daniel and Liane are so easy to work with, and go above and beyond to help coordinate the look and feel of the entire evening with attention to detail that is second to none. As a perfectionist myself, I hold the bar pretty high and Let's Pretend always surpasses my expectations! -
User2361866 Sent on 10/12/2015Liane and the rest of the team at Let's Pretend were absolutely incredible! They were organized, attentive, prompt, and most importantly their food was wonderful! We enjoyed every part of the process with Let's Pretend - from creating our personalized menu to executing our wedding day. Our cocktail hour (and a half) was delicious and the food was hot, yummy, and beautifully presented. Then dinner was just outstanding. Everything looked magical and creative and just how we had wanted. We felt so well-cared for and listened to and Liane really made sure to make all things food within the scope of our vision. Thank you Liane, Daniel, Brandi, and the rest of the team for the most special day! We unequivocally recommend Let's Pretend! -
User2341806 Sent on 09/29/2015Liane and the team at Let's Pretend are just absolutely stunning -- MUST be the world's best caterers, and can't say enough good things about them. (1) They're all the nicest, most patient, and most helpful people you will ever meet. (2) Their food is AMAZING. Essentially very guest at our wedding told us that it was the best wedding food (or maybe food in general!) that they'd ever had.
LP catered our rehearsal dinner and wedding reception, and went FAR above and beyond the call of duty in coordinating so many additional logistics, from cocktail hour/reception timing and flow to helping set things up before the event. They were helpful in generating ideas, incredibly responsive to questions and concerns, and flexible in every detail of the event -- including coordinating multiple special dishes for people with dietary concerns.
I owe them truly from the bottom of my heart for making our wedding day so special (and delicious)!. I guarantee they would make any event just the best. -
User2264443 Sent on 08/10/2015What can I say about Let's Pretend ... they are AWESOME! We didnt have a wedding planner, and we didn't need them with all of their help from the venue, to the catering, to band recommendations, cake baker, florists, drinks, set up, processions, you name it and they helped us with it. They are masters of their craft. We consider them family at this point. The food was amazing. Ever since our first taste testing we were so excited for food at our rehearsal dinner and wedding. Daniel & LeAnn even helped us with custom ideas from a giant donut stand to table settings. He took our vision and helped execute to it to beyond our imagination. We love them and wish we could get married all over again to enjoy the experience again! -
User1535443 Sent on 02/15/2014We are not local to Vermont, but when we decided to get married at Shelburne Farms and we were looking at several options for catering, Let's Pretend came highly recommended by friends in the area. We could not have been happier with our decision to go with them! My husband and I were dreading many parts of the planning process, but when we met with Liane and Daniel for our tasting they were so friendly and enthusiastic about the whole experience that they gave us the boost we needed and we actually started to get excited about the event!
Throughout the whole planning process they were flexible and brought great ideas to us. When we couldn't decide between a sit down meal or a buffet style, they listened to our vision for the day and suggested a family style meal, which proved to be a glorious fit to the long tables we had our guests seated at. The presentations of the food were so beautiful that they became the centerpieces of our tables, which saved us money and worry, but also felt warm and festive.
Not only were they brilliant on the food end, but Daniel helped to create the most beautiful ambience. We had some big ideas, but weren't quite sure how to put it all together. Daniel just let us leave all the elements with him (and I completely trusted him) and he and his crew made the whole space warm and magical - more beautiful than we could have imagined.
Back to the food. Oh, the food! We had dozens of guests telling us it was one of the best meals they had ever had and was by far the best food at a wedding they had ever eaten. They source their ingredients from what is local and sustainable so the meal truly felt unique to the day and season and the place.
We were so happy to have found Let's Pretend and if we ever find ourselves in the area planning an event again, they will be the first ones we think of!
