Above and Beyond!!
First and foremost, the food was delicious!! I never expect food at a wedding to be really good, but LJ and Umphrey proved me wrong! My guests are still complimenting us on our wedding reception dinner and by far the BEST coconut cake I've ever had. The service was perfect and it felt like we working with friends we've known for years. Thank you LJ and Umphrey!!First and foremost, the food was delicious!!

They were great!
Umphrey and his team were so great for everything. He was so easy to get ahold of and plan with and flexible until very close to the day of the wedding with headcount and menu. All of our guests loved the food and his staff was so fun! The bartender made sure me and my husband were taken care of and friends commented on how he went above and beyond to help them get the right drinks. Our groomsmen were even able to convince some of the catering staff to join in dancing on the dance floor and they were great sports! I definitely recommend them for your wedding!Umphrey and his team were so great for everything.

Food, fun, in the sun
This catering team is amazing. I am from Illinois and had a wedding in Key Largo Florida. With this team, I never had to worry about the food. We had a three day event, and they catered it all. Friday’s theme was cheeseburger in paradise. We had burgers and ribs, all amazing. Saturday was our wedding, and the food was spectacular. The bartenders took care of my guests. Sunday, we had a full brunch. What started out as a vendor ended up as family. They took care of everything! I even had a few guests with dietary concerns, and this team provided my guests with great alternatives. My guest normally can’t eat at weddings, and our wedding they left happy and satisfied. This team is the best.This catering team is amazing. I am from Illinois and had a wedding in Key Largo Florida. With this team, I never had to worry about the food.

Ljs is amazing!
We used LJs for our wedding and rehearsal a few weeks back and honestly I have nothing but amazing things to say about these folks and their food! People are still talking about how amazing the tacos were from our rehearsal dinner. Lisa and Umphrey felt like family to us- they even brought in table linens when we found out ours were way too small. They even passed out our desserts brought in by others. You guys were so sweet and amazing! I wish we lived in the keys and could see you and eat your food way more often! Many many hugs to you and your fam- The best- do not hesitate to go with LJs!We used LJs for our wedding and rehearsal a few weeks back and honestly I have nothing but amazing things to say about these folks and their food!

Way beyond expectations
Lisa and Umphrey and their staff were absolutely amazing! They went above and beyond for our rehearsal, wedding and day after brunch. All of our guests came up to us telling us how great the food was and many guests got second helpings. We went with the key West dinner option and Their red snapper is out of this world. They were always available to speak with me via text or email and allowed us to personalize our items. I also used them for table settings and linens and Lisa made each table look very beautiful. I would highly recommend using them! Thanks again L&J!Lisa and Umphrey and their staff were absolutely amazing! They went above and beyond for our rehearsal, wedding and day after brunch.

11.11.23 Key Largo Wedding
The night couldn’t have gone more smoothly, Lisa and Umphrey are amazing at what they do. They decorated the place so nicely, and the food was soooo delicious! From the appetizers, to the oyster bar, to the paella, everything came out so good. I couldn’t be happier with how the evening went and it all because of them!The night couldn’t have gone more smoothly, Lisa and Umphrey are amazing at what they do.

Absolutely Top Notch
From our initial meeting, to the pre-event taste test, through the entire wedding reception, LJ's Events was absolutely fantastic! There is nothing they cannot do - they brought chairs for the wedding, tables, linens, cutlery and helped us decorate. The staff are all polite and personable. The paella being prepared on the patio during cocktail hour stimulated the senses and anticipation of what was an excellent dinner. The cost for everything they do is very reasonable. You absolutely cannot go wrong with LJ's Events!From our initial meeting, to the pre-event taste test, through the entire wedding reception, LJ's Events was absolutely fantastic!

Excellent experience - 10/10 !!
LJ's catered for our wedding reception. I had a wonderful experience with them from start to finish. The owners are very friendly and responsive. Our food was absolutely amazing! The bartenders also did an excellent job - they were happy to make our chosen his/her signature cocktails, which were a big hit. The owners made sure to stop by to congratulate my husband and I, gave us a hug along with well-wishes, and we all took a photo together at the end of the night - they are so sweet! I loved working with this team and could not recommend them enough! Thank you again for all of your help. :)LJ's catered for our wedding reception.

The Perfect Wedding
LJs catered our daughter's wedding in June 2023. Lisa offered great suggestions and was very responsive to anything we requested. The food was fabulous, the decor was beautiful, and the attention to detail was amazing. This allowed us to relax and enjoy the day. At the end of the evening, the bride & groom said "we wouldn't have changed a thing". LJs cared for us like family and I highly recommend them. The price was very reasonable.LJs catered our daughter's wedding in June 2023. Lisa offered great suggestions and was very responsive to anything we requested.

We hired LJ's for our July 4th wedding at Key Largo Lighthouse Beach. LJ's offers so many flexible packages. We went with a taco bar, and it was delicious.

New years eve wedding
We had no idea the services we were going to receive for our wedding as we picked everything site unseen and based on reviews for our destination wedding. From the moment I contacted LJs catering service they were great. Umphrey responded within the hour to all of my texts and emails and answered all of my questions. When I needed to upgrade to have linen service as well, Lisa was on it making sure it was everything I had in mind. The day of our wedding everything was set up and ready and it was wonderful. Working with LJs Catering is like being taken care of by close family. I would recommend them.We had no idea the services we were going to receive for our wedding as we picked everything site unseen and based on reviews for our destination wedding.

Lisa, Ump, and their team did an amazing job at our wedding in September 2019. They answered all of our questions right up until the week before the wedding. They were very flexible with creating our menu. The night of our wedding we heard all great things from our guests!! They loved the dinner and desserts served at our reception. The bartender provided through LJ's was the hit of the night!! He was so personable and kept the drinks flowing all night.
