Amazing and Showstopping Experience with Ovy Catering May 2024 Wedding
If you are someone that desires your wedding guests to exclaim “I have never had wedding food this amazing” or “I have been dreaming about the short rib ever since we had it at your wedding” Ovy Signature Catering is for you! Coming from big foodie families and working in the food industries ourselves, my husband and I were in awe of the love, care, thoughtfulness and talent the entire team at OSC brings.
Ovy Catering came recommended from our wedding venue, Stan Mansion, and the moment we made contact with the team, we knew the attention to detail and experience would enhance our wedding for us and our guests alike. Ati, their Director and chef Ovy took our feedback and dreams of the perfect meal and made it reality. Their attention to thoughtfulness on our feedback and desires made the experience working with them effortless.
Duck confit bites, Ovy bruschetta ( with whipped smoked eggplant), Brie bites were our passed hor d'oeuvre and were perfect delicious bites! Truly if you are looking for a restaurant quality food at your wedding, look no further!
We had A Specialty soup and salad course and our mains were show stoppers; short rib with chive butter mashed potatoes, with grilled veggies, roasted chicken thigh with couscous and vegetables and a garlic mushroom medley with couscous and vegetables. Dessert table of mousses, opera cake, chocolate tarts and cream puffs were perfect little sweet bites in between dancing. We were so happy to bring home leftovers to enjoy the night before we left from our honeymoon too!
Service was friendly and attentive and worked in a seamless and non distracting manner during the wedding.
We cannot say enough good things about Ovy Signature Catering and the delicious memories they provided us. -

Ovy’s staff did an amazing job helping us curate a menu between Filipino & Italian food. They made gave a great variety of choices of food to curate the perfect menu. They went above and beyond by offering advice on anything wedding related just to ease our stress, even if it did not pertain directly with food. They also worked great with an outside caterer because we wanted lechon for our wedding. The food was delicious and the staff was very attentive. Wish we could get married again just to hire them again! -

Ovy Signature Catering was the best catering vendor we could have asked for. From start to finish, Ovy & Ati have been outstanding.
Having family style food served at our wedding was very important to us - plus my husband (Justin) and I wanted some different & unique foods for our wedding. We had a wonderful consultation with Ati at the beginning of the wedding planning process and we immediately knew we wanted Ovy to cater for us. We were invited to have a tasting with our friends & family and this experience put Ovy over the top; having a tasting with some of our most important friends and family, was so unique and special to us. Ati was an excellent host & Ovy whipped up some delicious dishes for us! One of their signature hors d'oeuvres was smoked eggplant w/ puff pastry, feta, cherry tomatoes & chives; I was not a fan of eggplant, but they assured me I would like this bite. Sure enough, this was one of our favorite hors d'oeuvres of the night! Absolutely delicious and our guests had never tasted anything like it - which was exactly the experience we wanted! We also had grilled cheese dippers with tomato soup - which our families have asked for the recipe. The Thai chicken skewers were also delicious.
Throughout the planning process, Ati was a pillar of support for anything we needed. Since we were interested in bringing in full bar setup, Ovy & Ati helped facilitate getting the furniture and equipment needed for the bar setup - and this ended up being such a great feature at out wedding. On the day of the wedding the catering staff played such a key roll in making sure our day played out smoothly. We had designated staff serving the head table and they made sure we had enough food, water and beverages throughout the meal and never hesitated to ask if we needed anything. We got so many compliments from our guests about how kind and thoughtful the staff were - and typically this isn't something you notice at a wedding. But with Ovy Signature Catering, they bring 5 star, world class service, and it really goes a long way 😊
For our dinner we had a caesar salad w/ grilled lettuce. Most of our guests mentioned they had never tried this, but they thought it was the most delicious caesar salad they had ever tried! Plus, we had the most delicious short rib you can imagine + potatoes au gratin that made every guest speechless + perfectly cooked salmon with a beautiful couscous salad + our favorite dish: the Thai green coconut curry (V)! This dish was our vegan dish and was the most unique part of our menu and it was definitely a crowd pleaser. It was so great to be able to offer all our guests a little taste of something we love and the vegan guests at our wedding also loved it! Ovy/Ati even offered to individually plate the course for vegan/vegetarian guests which was so thoughtful.
The dessert table was exactly what we dreamed of; something simple but tasty. The little dessert bites were the perfect cap to a beautiful menu!
From start to finish - Ovy & Ati knocked it out of the park for our wedding and we hope to have another excuse to host a party with them some day in the future! Cheers to you and the team! 🥂 👏 -

We got married in December of 2023, and we don't have enough words to express the level of professionalism, thoughtfulness and absolute DELICIOUSNESS that Ovy and his team brought to our magical day. From the beginning of our planning process to the wedding day, Ovy Catering was amazing to work with.
As two people who care deeply about food and embracing our cultures, we wanted specific dishes that reflected our families traditions. Our tasting dinner was an unforgettable experience, and we knew right away we found the right fit. Ovy and his team worked with us to create a beautiful menu that left our guests wanting more, and our wedding meals are still being spoken about amongst our friends and family to this day.
Ovy Signature Catering is more than a catering company. They truly listen to your vision, make adjustments as you wish and communicate efficiently along the way, and ensure that your wedding day is just as you envisioned. Ovy and Ati are not only two amazing vendors, they are two amazing people who care about their couples!
We would recommend them (and already have numerous times) to any couple who cares highly about the dining experience their guests receive on their special day! -

We had the pleasure of choosing Ovy Signature Catering for our wedding, and it turned out to be one of the best decisions we made. Initially recommended by Stan Mansion, our wedding venue, we couldn't be more thrilled with the outstanding service and culinary delights provided by Chef Ovy, Ati, and their team.
Right from the beginning, Ati and his team exhibited an exceptional level of accommodation. Beginning our planning process 18 months in advance, they demonstrated diligence in getting to know us both as individuals and as a couple. This was especially crucial for us as we had several serious food allergies to consider. Ovy Signature Catering didn't just see themselves as caterers; they recognized the pivotal role that food plays in shaping the overall wedding experience.
The personalized approach continued with a delightful tasting session where Ati and his team not only showcased their culinary expertise but also generously provided wine, allowing us and our friends to savor the full spectrum of their excellent offerings.
Ati's hands-on involvement was evident throughout the planning process. His willingness to address every question without judgment created a comfortable and transparent atmosphere. Pricing details were laid out clearly, and any concerns we had were patiently addressed, ensuring that we felt confident and informed every step of the way.
On the big day, Chef Ovy and his team delivered a performance that surpassed our expectations. Their professionalism, efficiency, and attentiveness to our guests were remarkable. They not only took exceptional care of us but also left a lasting impression on our guests. The food, crafted with skill and passion, was an absolute highlight, and people are still raving about it.
Ovy Signature Catering not only met but exceeded our expectations. Chef Ovy, Ati, and their team's commitment to excellence, personalized service, and exceptional culinary creations made our wedding day an unforgettable experience. We wholeheartedly recommend Ovy Signature Catering to anyone seeking not just a caterer but a team dedicated to enhancing the overall joy of their special day.

I cannot emphasize enough how Ovy, Ati and team made our wedding spectacular. We had a very specific (and somewhat unusual) vision with cocktails, food and dancing starting before the ceremony (which occurred midway through the wedding).
We explained to Ovy and Ati that we wanted it to feel like a party (no formal sit-down dinner), but still have a full selection of dinner stations that would satisfy the entire crowd.
People ate whenever they wanted and spent the rest of the time mingling or on the dance floor. Everyone raved about the food and many went back for seconds (and thirds!). We chose to do an "around the world" concept with three stations: Middle Eastern, Mexican and Italian. This provided people with a plethora of choices and also gave many options to people with various dietary restrictions.
Taking a non-traditional approach to a wedding can be risky, but this team made it a huge success!

The best caterers EVER!
Ovy and Ati did an AMAZING job catering our wedding, and we could not have asked for a better catering service. From our initial inquiry, to our wonderful tasting, and finally to our wedding day everything was above our expectations. We asked them to help create a menu that both my husband’s Lebanese family and my Wisconsin family would both love, and they absolutely delivered. Everyone was raving about our food all night, and they even special made Lebanese style Shawarma and Wisconsin style deep-fried cheese curds as our late night snack. The dessert table was also to die for, and was set up beautifully. The staff at our event was also extremely attentive. Ovy and Ati had never been to our reception site either, The Bridge Lemont, but despite being to a new site, everything ran incredibly smoothly. We could not recommend Ovy and Ati enough for anyone looking to impress their guests with amazing food! -

When I tell you this was the best food I could have ever imagined at my wedding…I am not joking. Months later people are still raving about the food and the service and I could not agree more. The food is nice restaurant quality. People loved the menu we came up with and working with Ati and Ovy is awesome as well. I could not recommend Ovy Signature Catering enough! -

My husband and I are vegetarian and Ovy worked with us to plan some outstanding options for our wedding. Everything was customizable on the menu and this is a boutique business so we got a lot of personal attention from the coordinator and chef. For us it was an easy choice to book Ovy as their experience and talent were unmatched! -

The team at Ovy Signature Catering were exceptional. We had so many guests tell us how much they enjoyed the meal. Ovy provided us with a late night hot dog stand that was a huge hit with our guests as well. They were easy to work with and responded to our questions quickly each time. Would recommend for anyone looking for a caterer.
