Meredith Sent on 10/16/2017We chose Glidden House for our venue and thankfully Marigold is their caterer. The food was amazing and they were very accommodating. Our contact happened to be on maternity leave up until a week before our wedding. That made for some tight squeezing in of finalizing the wedding and put preparations back. Thankfully the tasting and arrangements had been made earlier in the year, so we only needed to settle on final information and choices. Make sure you, the caterer contact, and the venue are on all on the same page when it comes to timing of the evening. We had a last minute surprise when our venue told us they only offer 5 hours and we had scheduled 6 with Marigold! The staff and chefs made our reception dinner a truly great experience and we could not have asked for more (or better!). -
User2310543 Sent on 09/10/2015We were fortunate to have Marigold Catering as the exclusive caterer offered by Severance Hall, which we were informed of on our initial site visit. In reviewing the materials provided, we were quite impressed with what Marigold had to offer and looked forward to working with them to plan the menu for our wedding.
If I could give Vicki Hlousek (Severance Hall is her venue) TEN stars I would - she was AWESOME! Dealing with a stressed out, stretched thin, relatively indifferent bride must be quite difficult, but Vicki always made me feel like I wasn't a pain in the rear (although I'm sure I was). She was professional from our first conversation and when we finally met her for our tasting, we knew that we had a great person to work with. She managed expectations up front and worked with the chefs to accommodate our requests for a multi-ethnic cuisine. Vicki also served as our day-of coordinator and it was a huge help to have someone who knows the venue so well.
The food from Marigold is hands down some of the best reception food I've ever eaten. I love that they use locally sourced, seasonal items and they plan ahead to give you an idea of what to expect for when your event is scheduled. Everything we tasted was delicious and we actually had a difficult time narrowing down our choices for both cocktail hour and the reception. After the ceremony, our pictures took a little long, which led to the cocktail hour being extended, which led to dinner being served later than anticipated...so some guests received cold salmon. But overall, the guests really enjoyed their food and were very complimentary of their apps, salads and entrees.
If you have the opportunity to book Marigold on your own, definitely consider them. They work with all budgets and were very open being creative/flexible with menu planning. If the venue that you select uses Marigold exclusively, that's just an added bonus for you. -
User1113579 Sent on 03/19/2013Marigold is a little more expensive but worth every penny. The food was amazing, hot, and tasty. The staff worked closely with me to get every detail perfect. None of my guests left hungry even those with special diets and religious restrictions. Several guests asked me for their name after the wedding for their up coming events.

Angela Sent on 09/26/2011We utilized Marigold for catering our wedding. Our wedding was vintage carnival themed - during cocktail hour we had mini funnel cake sticks and mini grilled cheese sandwiches with tomato soup as appetizers! For dinner, we had stations including sliders, french fries, nachos, fried chicken, and more! Dessert included a massive brownie bar. Everyone said the food was amazing and it definitely helped make our theme come together! The staff of Marigold were extremely professional and helpful. They even guarded my water while I hit the dance floor! I couldn't have asked for better service. -

Gwen Sent on 07/17/2009Everything was going smoothly until about halfway through dinner service. We had a buffet setup and people seemed like they were getting enough food. However my mom informed me that the roasted vegetable platter was empty and they were running out of the chicken. Not good. They assured us that there would be plenty of food.
Also, at the tasting we tried the chicken Florentine, a chicken breast stuffed with spinach and cheese. It was delicious. Our event planner told us they would cut the breasts in half so it will go further. However, at the reception the chicken turned out to be small chunks of chicken floating in a soupy green sauce. We were not happy that they changed this without informing us.
Because of this they agreed to take a little off the final bill.
