Best part of our wedding, easy
The number one thing we've heard from our guests is how good the food was. Abigale, Michael, and their whole staff were total pros. They flexibly worked around venue requirements, easily managed dietary restrictions, and delivered the most incredible service and plates. They even brought us our own tray of appetizers to ensure we got to try everything. We trusted them so much. Can't recommend enough! -

Unbelievable food, drinks & service!
We used Trillium Catering for our wedding at French's Point in Stockton Springs, Maine in September 2024. Our guests are still raving about how it was the best wedding food they have ever had! The oysters, charcuterie spread and all of apps were incredible. The seated dinner was perfect. And the desserts!! It was too good to be true. The drinks were great as well - we loved our cucumber & rosemary gin & tonic and blueberry peach whisky sour signature drinks.
Not only is the food amazing, but Mike & team at Trillium are so easy to work and the service the day of was fantastic. Thank you for being part of our special day!-

Trillium is the best wedding caterer you could ask for--hands down!
If you are planning a wedding in Maine, do yourself a favor and book Trillium as your caterer! Our wedding was elevated to a whole new level of excellence thanks to their outstanding service and culinary expertise. We had the pleasure of getting the Trillium experience at another wedding and literally planned our wedding date around their availability--they are just that good.
From the moment we had our tasting (which was the highlight of the wedding planning experience), we knew we were in for something special. The food wasn’t just good—it was extraordinary. Every bite, from the appetizers (lobster rolls!!) to the desserts, left our guests raving.
The service provided by Michael, Abigale and their team was impeccable. They ensured every detail was flawlessly executed, and we never had to worry about a thing. During the cocktail hour, they made sure the we (bride and groom) were always taken care of, keeping our drinks full and our plates loaded with the most delicious appetizers. They even went above and beyond by sourcing a cider from Washington DC, where we first met—a truly personal and thoughtful touch.
We were genuinely sad when we finished our doggie bag containers of the wedding food; it was that memorable. We can’t recommend Trillium highly enough for anyone planning a wedding in Maine. Their exceptional food, attention to detail, and remarkable service made our day unforgettable. -

Hire Trillium!!!
Trillium catered our June 2024 wedding and did an amazing job. For 150 guests, the food, appetizers and cocktails were all delicious. Guests raved that the food was better than most restaurants. The service was warm and attentive. Michael personally checked on us and our families during the cocktail reception and dinner to ask if we needed anything. I cannot recommend Trillium highly enough! -

Trillium delivered a masterpiece at our wedding
Trillium delivered a masterpiece at our wedding. There’s no other to describe it. We are a couple that values quality food as a convener and a celebration of a community. We wanted to ensure that food - and drinks - were front and center at our wedding, so we chose Trillium and couldn’t have been happier about it.
Abigale & Michael were as professional and creative as they were kind and dedicated to us. We were wowed by the entire process - building a menu that reflected championed local ingredients on paper, workshopping and indulging at the pre-event tasting, and basking in the glory of it all on our big day. The experience felt like dining at a restaurant that swayed and adapted to the energy of the event. We can’t count the number of guests who came up to us and said “this is the best food at a wedding I’ve ever had.” We agree with them.
In addition to the seamless execution and delicious food, we can’t stress enough how kind and generous the team was to us (bride and groom) throughout, and especially on wedding day itself. Michael constantly controlled for quality and guest experience; Michael was the first person to welcome us to the reception, freshly prepared cocktails in hand. He also checked in on us, and our parents throughout the evening, bringing us all the food we may have missed. For our guests with dietary restrictions, he made of a point of personally personally delivering vegan entrees or gluten-free cake. The experience, the food, and the people are 10/10. We couldn’t recommend them higher. -

Worked with Trillium on a vendor team, summer 2023
Trillium Caterers, Abigale and Michael, are excellent communicators, produce the highest quality product, and do it all with a smile!! As wedding farmer-florists here in Maine, we work with dozens of catering companies every season. In the last five years, Trillium has stood out as the best communicators, and very easy to work with! They were thrilled to receive a bucket of food-safe and edible blooms from our fields for a joint wedding we were both vendors on, and Abigale and I emailed back and forth about colors, shapes, etc. until she got just the right mix to use at the wedding. It's that kind of attention to detail that ALL couples want! Don't think twice; hire Trillium for your wedding catering!! -

You will not be disappointed
We used Trillium catering for our wedding and I was absolutely blown away. I know I am biased, but I have been to 10 weddings this year and I think they are by far one of the best wedding caterers around. We were sadly unable to do a tasting so had no clue what to expect, but everything and I mean everything was delicious! All our guests were raving about all the hors d'oeuvres and how many options there were, especially the lobster rolls and oyster bar. The Burrata salad was the best starter, the beef was so perfectly cooked, and they even planned an extra butternut squash lasagna for me and my husband to try since we thought it sounded amazing.
The service and attention to detail was phenomenal. My mother was especially pleased when a server came up any time her drink was empty and refilled her glass with her stash of Pinot Grigio. Everyone at the bar was lovely to chat with and I don't think we waited long for a drink all night, and the drinks were very well crafted. All around the Trillium team provided amazing service for the whole event.
I was also not big on having a wedding cake but Trillium not only made a delicious two tier cake they also did bite size desserts that were delicious and the perfect treat for people to grab while taking a break from dancing.
I don't think a single person left our wedding hungry, but if they did there were pretzels and banh mi for people to grab on the way out. I just cannot say enough good things about all the food and drink Trillium prepared.-

Trillium is Amazing!
Working Trillium was truly one of the best parts of our wedding day. They provided catering and bar services for our August 2023 wedding, and the service was phenomenal. Abigale and Michael were so wonderful to work with throughout the process; they were extremely communicative and transparent when we reviewed the initial quote and contract, they were super responsive to our (many) questions throughout the planning process, and they were incredibly accommodating in helping us include a lot of really special details. Their attention to detail is amazing – every plate of food (for our wedding of 180!) was immaculate and tasted phenomenal. I had my heart set on an oyster raw bar during our cocktail hour, and the team delivered the most incredible set up - It was one of the highlights of our wedding! During the wedding day, Michael was so attentive to us, and personally delivered plates of cocktail hour snacks while we were doing family photos. We received so many compliments on the food, cocktails, and service. We cannot recommend Trillium highly enough! -

Absolute Perfection
Trillium brought absolute magic to our wedding day. From the presentation, to the service, to the quality of the meals, everything was done flawlessly. On top of the day of execution, the entire experience working with them was such a pleasure and so easy. The tasting was truly collaborative and they worked with us to design the exact right menu that met our wants and needs, but preserved the integrity of the meals and their expertise. I could not be more happy with how everything turned out. I want to relive our wedding day for many reasons and Trillium is high up on that list. We received (and honestly still receive months later) SO many compliments about the food.
So, in summary, you will be in the absolute BEST of hands if you choose Trillium as your wedding caterer and I may try to crash your wedding to experience it all over again! -

Trillium is the absolute best!
From the wedding ceremony, where the welcome drinks were delicious; to the cocktail hour, where the mouth watering specialty cocktails, appetizers, raw bar, and charcuterie board each deserve their own separate thank you note; to the incredible feast for dinner… WOW the dinner. Everything was beautifully presented, perfectly proportioned, and DELICIOUS. As a very food-centered family, we still haven’t stopped talking about it. The blueberry crumb bars were the best blueberry bar I have ever had and I am pretty sure I will be dreaming about the steak for months, if not years, to come. All our guests made a point to say how amazing the food was and how much they loved the family style food service.
Their attention to both myself and my groom's comfort, ensuring we had all the beverages and bites we could ask for, did not go unnoticed. I was so happy to get all the tasty samplers and to break the hungry bride stereotype! -

Best caterer ever, without a doubt
I can’t say enough great things about Trillium. Having great food was the #1 priority for our wedding, and they exceeded even our wildest expectations.
They catered both our rehearsal dinner and the wedding itself, and I couldn’t be happier with how everything turned out. All of our guests told us it was the best food they’ve ever had at a wedding, hands down. Their presentation was stunning, too — they thought through every detail, down to the flowers on the serving platters. They’re working at a level of excellence that’s higher than any other caterer I’ve come across (and I’ve worked for over a decade in food).
Now, about Abigale and Michael — the two of them were an absolute dream to work with. We had some special requests that they executed flawlessly, and they worked with us to come up with menus for the two nights that felt unique. They also took special care to make sure we were well-fed on our wedding night; they were bringing us snacks and leaving plates at our seats so that we could enjoy everything along with our guests. They even braved the masses on the dance floor to bring us dessert.
If you see this review, I’m telling you: go with Trillium! And invite me to your tasting! ;) -

Incredible - hire them ASAP
Trillium is the absolute best caterer we could have asked for. Their food is delicious and creative. We left our tasting thinking that not only was this the best catered food we'd ever had, but it was like the best restaurant we had ever been to. They were incredibly accommodating, adding an off-menu dessert item to honor my husband's culture. Their team executed the day perfectly - there were not any bar lines and there were not significant wait times between different tables were served. They even packaged up leftovers for us and stored them for us to enjoy the next day! We can't recommend Trillium enough! -

Above and beyond
Abigale and Michael and their INCREDIBLE team went above and beyond for us. They stuck with us for an (almost) 4 year engagement and through a covid rescheduling of the wedding. Every detail was beyond what we could have expected. The food and drinks were spectacular and it was obvious that SO much love and attention went into all of it. The energy from everyone at Trillium was incredible. We feel honored to have worked with this amazing crew of passionate humans and we will remember them as one of the highlights of our wedding day. Love Love Love. -

Delicious, attentive, & caring
Trillium was the BEST option to cater our wedding! Michael and Abby are not only two of the kindest and funniest people but they offer professional, timely, thoughtful, and DELICIOUS service, drinks, and food. The most common feedback from wedding guests was: “that was the best wedding food I’ve ever had!” Our friends are still raving about the spicy paloma cocktail, pork bun appetizers, and butternut squash lasagne. We had a large number of guests, but Trillium’s service made it feel intimate as everyone was thoughtfully attended to and well fed!
As the bride, they repeatedly came to check in on my needs for water, delicious appetizers, and to see how I was doing. We absolutely love them, their food, and their incredible service. If you’re looking for not only a seamless but also a delicious show-stopping catering service, Trillium is the way to go.-

Stole the show!
We’re a little late to write this review, but Trillium catered our wedding back in May of 2022 and we don’t have enough good things to say. First and foremost, the food was exceptional. It was important to us to have good food at our wedding, and they exceeded our expectations. We couldn’t even count the number of people who told us that it was the best wedding food they’d ever had. A full 7 months later, people are still telling us how amazing the food was. Everything from passed apps to main courses were beautiful, delicious, and served well. Almost as impressive as the food quality, were their operations. Our guests were served on time, at the same time, and nothing was cold (unless it was supposed to be). The bar program was also fantastic with inventive, seasonal cocktails, local beer, and great wine selections.
Beyond the food, Abigale and Michael were wonderful to work with. Our original wedding, was in June of 2020 and we had to reschedule 3 times. They were understanding and accommodating. We seriously can’t recommend them enough. We’ve been to a ton of weddings and you’re unlikely to find a better caterer anywhere. -

Wish I had a reason to hire them again
Not only is the food some of the best you'll ever eat, but the staff is equally as spectacular. We wish we would have done a first look so that we could have enjoyed more of our cocktail hour, but Trillium staff made sure to find us taking pictures so we could enjoy the appetizers. I wish there were enough words to describe the delicious food and kind staff. They really are the best -

Trillium Caterers: You'll want to have a second wedding just to work with them again
With Michael and Abigale around, you know your wedding is in good hands. Hiring Trillium was the first, and best, decision we made about our wedding. From day one, Michael asked all the right questions and answered all our nitpicky questions quickly, clearly, and completely. He managed our rentals in a way that made those decisions very easy for us. We told him what we were going for generally and he set up an amazing, mostly vegetarian, menu for us. About that vegetarian menu: we were a bit worried that the meat-eaters might not feel satiated, but au contraire -- reviews came in from all segments of our raw vegan to mostly carnivorous guestlist raving that the food was outstanding, and not just in the "wedding" food category, but in the "high-end restaurant food" category. In the last weeks before the wedding, Michael answered all my emails within minutes. He was flexible as guest numbers fell with the rise in Delta variant infections. He developed a rain plan. On day of, when a fast-moving thunderstorm 30 minutes before the ceremony threatened all the beautiful cocktail and hors d'oeuvres tables they had put together, Michael's team saved the day, and the mezze bar. And about that team: they were all extremely hardworking and professional, smiling under their masks the whole night and making everything right for all our guests. Michael took special care of us and our parents, getting us apps and cocktails as we took pictures and looking out for us during dinner to make sure we were fed. Of course, we would have loved more Trillium food...if only weddings didn't go by in the blink of an eye! Luckily, their tasting in advance of the wedding at their prep facility in Belfast gave us a chance to slow down and enjoy all the amazing food ourselves in a lovely setting with the accompanying explanations and good humor of Abigale and Michael. I've no doubt this has been a crazy summer for Trillium, trying to fit in all the delayed weddings of 2020. Nonetheless, they made us feel special and at ease throughout our entire experience working with them. If you are having a wedding in Maine, you can make no easier or better choice than to hire Trillium. -

We'd Get Married Again Just to Eat More of Trillium's Food
While a review about a caterer should probably start with the food, you cannot talk about Trillium without first talking about the people behind Trillium: Abigale and Michael are two of the most incredible people ever, and their team is amazing. We were fortunate to meet them for a tasting (we ultimately compared 3 highly rated caterers with whom we did tastings) and were immediately struck by their genuine passion for food and drink, getting to know their clients, and their in-depth expertise in all aspects of events. Throughout the multiple months of planning a destination wedding in Maine, we frequently talked to and emailed Abigale and Michael about anything related to food during our weekend, and every moment was met with kindness, fun, extremely helpful guidance, and even coordination with other vendors and venues. Their amazing qualities as people are only matched by their talents with gastronomy and mixology.
We worked with Trillium for 4 events / 5 menus across 3 days at 2 different venues -- a Rehearsal Dinner, a Welcome Reception at a different venue (which Trillium simultaneously set up while serving the rehearsal dinner), the post-ceremony Cocktail Hour with passed hors d’ouevres, the Reception Dinner, and a Farewell Brunch. We affectionately (and excitedly) referred to our wedding weekend as "Exploring Trillium's Entire Repertoire while Amanda and Phil Get Married in the Background," and among the first comments we received (and continue to receive) from guests is how great the food was.
The food created by Trillium is absolutely delicious. The flavors, textures, and ingredients they use are thoughtfully selected, and the presentation is always beautiful, whether plated, passed, or at a station. The same can be said for their cocktails. Abigale and Michael took time to learn about our interests, preferences, and the food theme we hoped to achieve, and happily developed and presented creative (and delicious) ideas or modifications to dishes. They further went above and beyond by working with us to create hors d’oeuvres based on foods special to us: a fun spin on a bulgogi dish using my mom’s recipe, and a clever take on my wife’s favorite from home, beef wellington. Their flexibility and ability to let their talents shine while collaborating with us really helped make our wedding feel even more special.
Beyond the food, their support and passion for making an event special are unmatched, and we’ve provided just a few examples here. Michael coordinated with different beer and cider distributors to help ensure we could serve our favorite New England craft brews and a D.C. cider special to us. In addition to the delicious cake made by their pastry chef, Kiwi Rae, they gladly served donuts we brought from The Holy Donut *and* worked with my wife to secretly prepare a surprise brown butter rice krispie treat cake. They often went out of their way to liaise with vendors on rentals and services beyond catering and helped us coordinate and strategically consolidate rentals for the weekend’s events. At one point before the ceremony, the mother of the bride’s corsage was damaged from hugging someone -- one of the Trillium team members quickly rushed off to find materials to repair the corsage (with success!).
In short, we cannot imagine any part of our wedding weekend without Trillium, because they were so much more than perfect catering -- they helped make the overall experience amazing. We hope we have another reason to work with them in the future, and we wholeheartedly recommend them. -

Delicious, High Quality Food and Excellent Service
I will probably just echo what others have said below, but I Trillium deserves each of these good reviews! Food was my (bride) most important wedding decision, and I am SO happy that we went with Trillium. We were completely sold at the tasting, and the food lived up to those high expectations at the wedding. We received so many compliment on the food from our guests, and my parents who have very high standards loved the food as well. They were accommodating of dietary restrictions - including gluten free guests and vegans. I just can’t say enough great things about the food!
In addition, their service was impeccable from start to finish. They were prompt in responding to emails, professional and really cared about getting things right for us. Michael even chased down a specific Scotch my husband wanted for his specialty cocktail! Of all the things you may worry about in planning your wedding, anything Trillium handles will never be on that list. They did all of our rental coordination which was huge, it made our lives so much easier! They have relationships with other vendors in Maine, which goes a long way in the tight wedding vendor community.
I really could go on and on, but if you are wondering if Trillium is right for you, I can honestly say you will be so glad to have Michael and Abigale as your catering team! -

Best of the best
As someone who works in the wedding industry, I have had many boring wedding meals. When my wife and I got engaged and we were prioritizing our vendors, the caterers were at the top of our lists. Being out of state, it was difficult to pick someone when you haven’t tasted their food but after looking at Trillium’s instagram and website, it was clear that they were the winners. Abigale and Michael are amazing and it’s apparent that they really enjoy what they do. They are so friendly which made communicating with them a breeze.
On our wedding day, Abigale and her team were so unbelievably attentive. There was never a server far from me or my wife and they even put together a little tray of all our hors d’oeuvres to make sure we could try them all. When we sat for dinner, the service was so beautifully choreographed and the food was so delicious. Never in my life have I heard so many people get excited about carrots (make sure you have them on your menu)!!
We loved working with them and would recommend them to everyone and anyone getting married in Maine. -

Best of the best
My husband and I live in the midwest but decided to get married in Maine this year. We planned our wedding from afar WITHOUT taking a trip ahead of our wedding weekend (meaning we also did not do any food tastings ahead of time...). We come from food-centered families, and the food for our wedding weekend was very important to us. In fact, this was the single vendor I was most concerned with booking.
We found Trillium based on recommendations and reviews, and booking them was the BEST decision we could have made. Prior to the wedding, the were helpful, courteous, understanding, thoughtful, and professional. During our wedding weekend, they truly went above and beyond. The food, drinks, staff, and service exceeded all of our expectations. Everyone was friendly, smiling, personable, and helpful. Staff (including Michael and Abigale) went out of their way to make sure my husband and I had anything we needed or wanted- walking well out of their way while we were taking pictures to check in with us and offer some small bites. The food was absolutely stellar. Words don't do justice. Trillium catered our rehearsal dinner, cocktail hour/reception, and brunch, and we couldn't get enough. Our guests RAVED endlessly about the food, with everyone saying this was easily the best catered meal they had ever experienced and would order any item at a restaurant.
I could go on and on, but the simple fact is, Trillium was excellent in every sense of the word. They made our celebration what we hoped for and accounted for every detail in an incredibly organized manner. We COULD NOT have asked for a better experience. -

Five star experience from start to finish
We were completely blown away by the quality of the food and service at our wedding! The communication with Michael and Abigale from the day we booked was clear, organized and timely. When we had our tasting a few months before our wedding, we left saying, "if the food is even half as good, we will be thrilled." But Michael and Abigale don't operate at anything below 100% and the food at our wedding was just as spectacular as the tasting. It is hard to cook steak "the right way" for a large group, but they did it to perfection. They also made sure my husband and I were taken care of the entire time. While we took pictures, Michael's team stood nearby to give us appetizers in between shots. Trillium is a class act all the way around, and by choosing them, we were able to elevate our wedding without much work on our end. Thank you to the whole Trillium team! You are an incredible bunch to work with. -

Beyond amazing!!
Words cannot even describe how amazing our experience with Trillium was! Everyone was in awe not only over the food itself, but the presentation of everything!
Michael and the staff came up to us throughout the day/ night and offered a plate of all the apps and always made sure we had a drink when we wanted one.
Abigale and Michael were so professional and responsive every step of the way during our planning process. We truly cannot thank them enough for how amazing they made our special day! -

The absolute best!
There are not enough good things to say about Trillium. After hearing rave reviews, they were the first vendor we booked and we couldn't be happier that we did.
From the start, Michael and Abigail, understood what we were looking for and provided really helpful tips along the way. They were responsive and fun to work with. We had so much fun with them during the planning process and during the tasting, that it helped us get even more excited for the big day.
On the wedding day itself, their team went above and beyond and impressed not only us, but all of our guests. They were attentive, friendly, and went out of their way to make sure my husband and I were given food, drinks, etc. They did the same for our immediate family. It is rare to have a full team be so invested and wonderful, but Trillium makes it happen.
To this day, our guests still comment on how amazing the food was and many say it was the best wedding food they have ever had. -

They are the best. The food is REALLY good, but also beautiful. This was really important to me -- I wanted the day to feel fun and beautiful for the guests, and they took such great care of everyone. Loved working with them from day 1. -

Great people! Great food! Great service!
We couldn't have been happier with Trillium. Abigale and Michael were terrific in the months/weeks/days leading up to the wedding, and they (and their team) were out of this world on the event day itself. The food was spectacular . . . guests commented that it was the best catered food they had ever had.
And the staff was wonderful . . . friendly and engaged and (appropriately) a part of the event, while not being in the way of the event. Ours was a barn wedding, and Trillium's service was as classy and professional as you'd find in the most elite venue/city, while not being stuffy or pretentious . . . the waiters and bartenders were friendly and likeable. They were quick to address "special requests" (getting water to elderly guests before the service, finding that one appetizer the bride had missed in the commotion so she could try it, etc.).
And in the end, your caterer may not be one of your lifelong friends or relatives, but their team is in the middle of everything going on during your big day, so you want to be surrounded by good people with whom you would want to (peripherally, at least) share your day, and Abigale and Michael totally fit that description, as did the staff they brought to the event.
I'm the Father of the Bride, and so I am justifiably relieved to have all of the event planning over, but I have to admit I am saddened that I don't (yet) have another excuse to see (and taste) Trillium in action! -

Trillium was beyond amazing to work with in every way. I will say that choosing a caterer was certainly the most difficult decision we faced when planning the wedding as it can be incredibly daunting to compare companies when you haven't tasted their food, and it is so challenging to compare quotes from one vendor to another because they are never apples to apples. Trillium really was an excellent value we found because for their quality of service and food, they also managed all the rentals and truly gave an "all inclusive" sort of quote. When we tried their food however, I knew for a fact we had made the best decision imaginable. Michael and Abigale are so wonderful to work with, truly kind and responsive, imaginative, thorough, and best of all they make out of this world you will totally dream about it forever kinds of food. It is elegant and beautiful without ever being overdone or stuffy, it is delicious and approachable while still being creative and unique. It was the highlight of our wedding. Everybody warned us that we wouldn't eat at our own wedding, but we insisted that wouldn't be the case because we were so excited for our food! But Michael also assured we ate! He was always present with our passed apps and cocktails while we were taking photos and missing the cocktail hour. During dinner our glasses were never empty and he was consistently checking to make sure our needs and that of every one of our guests were expertly attended to. When 3 extra kids we didn't know were coming showed up, a table and 3 children's meals appeared seconds after I mentioned it to Michael. I simply can't think of anything they didn't excel at. Service, taste, presentation, communication. All flawless. So much of a wedding is about the sharing of food and drink with your loved ones over laughter and stories and Trillium made that experience the star of the wedding. They were worth every penny, and then some! -

Abigale and Michael were absolutely amazing and we credit them with creating the wedding we had imagined. The food was incredibly important to us. We were immediately impressed with the sample menus they prepared and were very happy after we had the tasting. What they delivered the day of was exceptional! People loved the cocktail hour and all the apps. And we're still hearing about how amazing the burrata salad was. Five months later our friends and family are still talking about how amazing the food was, with one friend saying "It wasn't just good wedding food - that was a good high-end restaurant-quality meal."
And on top of that, Michael helped us with all our rentals for our outdoor tented wedding. The day of, he made a point of making sure we had food and drinks and made us feel very cared for. It was a beautiful day that went off without a hitch and we cannot recommend Abigale and Michael enough!-

Trillium catered our wedding last summer, and it can't be stated enough--they are INCREDIBLE, all around, hands down.
My wife and I got married in August of 2017, and lucked out getting to have them for our wedding. They came highly recommended by numerous other vendors we interviewed, and we were sad to hear they were already booked for our date. However, when a cancellation came up, we booked them right away--one of the best parts of our wedding!
Throughout the whole process, Michael and Abigale could not have been more wonderful and professional. Our tasting with them was delicious; having a number of vegetarian and gluten-free guests, they were accommodating and inventive with tasty menu options; through the planning stages they were responsive and knowledgeable; and on the day, despite some unforeseen spotty rain, they pulled everything off seamlessly, and with their typical flourish.
To serve food to 200 guests, to get it to all of them while it's all hot, and to have it taste and look as incredible as it does is no small feat. Trillium makes it all look so easy, while you're left to enjoy your special day, leaving you with the best of memories.
We recommend their services fully and without reservation--we'd hire them again in a heartbeat! -

I don't even know how to put into words how great this experience was. My new husband and I are both vegetarian and wanted to make the dinner during the wedding vegetarian as well, when we told Trillium this Michael said that their Butternut Squash Lasagna would have meat eaters not even missing the meat. My mom was skeptical and wouldn't let us only have the lasagna and no other protein - we agreed on a fish and the lasagna to make my mom happy. After our wedding we took a road trip and saw lots of friends along the way. We have been asking people their favorite part about the wedding. Most people cannot answer with just one thing but the food and in particular the butternut squash lasagna always comes up as one of their favorite parts. My mom was also hoarding the leftovers of the squash and made me email Trillium to ask for the recipe! :) Not only was the food phenomenal but the service was wonderful as well! Abigale and Michael responded to emails quickly and were always a phone call away should we need more discussion then an email. They made the experience of planning a wedding so easy that I thought I was missing out on not doing something, they are great!! I want to have another wedding just to hire them again and eat their food! Hire them, just do it, you won't regret it!! -

Trillium’s service, staff and food are nothing short of stellar. From the beginning Michael and Abigale are knowledgeable, responsive and lovely to work with. They are clearly experienced food masters and shine on the wedding day. They enhance the day in ways that you did even know were possible. Every single thing they create is delicious, fresh, and beautifully presented. All of our guests complimented the food, even the toughest food critics. Aside from perfect food, the service was incredible, they provided a tasting hors d'oeuvre platter for my husband and I, made up a dinner plate for us while we took pictures and checked in at just the right times. The staff was so kind, efficient, fun and helpful to all of our guests. By the time the wedding was over, our guests were raving about Trillium. I could gush on and on, just book them, you won’t regret it. -

Simply put, Trillium is amazing. Abigale and Michael are truly rockstars, and in addition to their fantastic food, they were consistently one step ahead of us throughout the planning process.
Having decided on a tented backyard wedding, we knew we would need a killer catering team to pull it off. From the menu planning to the coordinating of the rentals, Michael was able to give us solid advice on what we needed (and didn't need), and was truly able to help make my vision for the day come to life!
As expected, the food was beyond amazing. The passed appetizers and charcuterie station were fantastic -- from the fried chicken bites to the ahi tuna on crispy rice, everything was spot on (and thanks to Michael for making sure we were able to taste it all!)
Our family style meal (which was exactly the vibe we were looking for) started off with a heirloom tomato and buratta salad, moving into flank steak with chimichurri, swordfish with mango salsa, and the BEST potato salad we've ever tasted. Multiple guests told us it was the best wedding food they had ever had, and we definitely agree.
The entire Trillium team was so friendly and helpful on the day of the wedding, as well - if you're looking for the total package, definitely choose Trillium for your big day. -

We simply can not say enough about the professionalism and true artistry of Trillium Caterers ! On August 12th, 2017, they performed their magic for our daughter's cocktail hour and wedding at our family property on Branch Lake in Ellsworth, Maine. Their presentation was absolutely exquisite! The food was extraordinary! The staff was personable, and delightful. Our guests are still talking about what an amazing meal and experience they had. Thank you, Trillium, for your seamless professionalism, and for your contributions to making a truly exquisite, magical evening. We heartily endorse and recommend your business!

I don't even know where to start in praising this company. My daughter was married on Saturday in Wiscasset. Trillium catered the event, and the food is pretty much all that people are talking about.
We visited Abigale and Michael on snowy day in March and had our tasting. It was fabulous, and so were they. But you never really know how the food from a tasting will translate to a large group. Well, no worries there. Every. Single. Bite. Was delicious. We had lobster rolls, and oysters, and crispy naan, cheese selection, a salad that was hands down the BEST salad I have ever eaten. Vegetable lasagne, salmon, chicken and desserts. Everything was fabulous. And everything was beautiful! The plates and stations were simple gorgeous.
Then there was the staff. They marched in like a highly choreographed team, each with plate in hand so that everyone was served their meal at the exact same time. It was amazing. How they did that so flawlessly I don't know, but it was impressive.
They were super attentive, smiling and so very nice. Everyone is still talking about the food.
We live in New Jersey, and the bride and groom live in NY, so we planned this from a distance. Every vendor we spoke with was thrilled that we had chosen Trillium as our caterers, and some, who were going to be on site, were really excited because they knew how well they would be eating.
I want to thank Abigale and Michael for making our only child's biggest day absolutely perfect. You two are wonderful. I only wish I could eat your food all the time.
Best wishes for a successful future. As my daughter Anna just texted me, "[Trillium] are the best!". And you are! Xo -

I wish I could give Trillium more than 5 stars. They are INCREDIBLE! There is no way I can fully express how delicious, kind, professional, attentive, and thorough their staff and services are. First of all, Abigail and Michael are so easy to work with and they respond to emails with alacrity and clarity. Their staff is kind, professional and fun to be around. Finally, and probably most importantly their food is mind blowing. All of our guests were RAVING about the food and continue to talk about it. From the appetizers to the salad, to dinner and dessert every single bite was a treat. My (new!) husband and I then had a long drive home the following day and we were exhausted after our wedding - imagine our surprise when we realized Trillium had packed up all of the leftovers for us!! The desserts made the drive less painful and eating our yummy wedding dinner two nights in a row was the best present ever. One more thing, they also pay such attention to detail so every plate was a work of art and their bar/appetizer table/dessert table and even coffee table were all beautifully decorated. 100% FANTASTIC! I will be recommending Trillium to anyone who will listen and I'm sure all of our guests will be too. Thank you thank you thank you! The price also includes all rentals as Trillium coordinates that too - again, they made everything so seamless! -

Abigale and Michael were amazing to work with for our wedding. From start to finish they really were so responsive and helpful through the whole process. On our wedding day, Greg and I were beyond amazed with how everything turned out thanks to Trillium! The fact that Michael found us wherever we were with an assortment of passed apps while we were taking photos during cocktail hour alone just shows how dedicated and amazing they are. The aesthics of the food, table settings, dessert, and welcome table were breathtaking. Our guests cannot stop raving about how beautiful, delicious, and unique the food was. Also, we want to thank all of Trillium staff and bar service. They were so friendly and professional. Everyone worked so well together and made it seamless. We would highly recommend Trillium to anyone who is looking for a team of amazing talented people who will truly make your event an unforgettable day. Thank you Abigale and Michael!!! We seriously can't thank you enough!!!

Abigale and Michael are simply the best. Our food was PERFECT, and guests continue to rave about every. single. thing they ate. From the passed hors d'oeuvres to our plated dinner and amazing spread of dessert, Trillium brought something for everyone – and did it with the grace, kindness, and humor only their entire (!) staff could bring to our wedding. Knowing a crowd from LA and New York could be hard to please, my fiancé and I knew we had a challenge on our hands. Into food ourselves, we wanted it to be memorable and delicious. Trillium delivered across the board, and was extremely attentive and responsive every step of the process. Nothing is too big or too small for them to handle. Birthday pies? Check. Anticipating a tented wedding weekend washout? Check. We wholeheartedly recommend them, and are so grateful for the joy they brought to both us and our guests on our wedding day. But, more than that, I would go out of my way to work with them again – times 10. I’m even dreaming of scenarios now, that is just how wonderful Abigale and Michael are as people and professionals. -

Michael and Abigale at Trillium Caterers are a dream team! Seriously, book them right now! People are still commenting on how great the food was six months after our wedding! Michael and Abigale are the most supportive vendors. They helped us build an incredible menu (working around many picky eaters and special food needs), determine all our rental needs, and create a flow and atmosphere of an intimate, shared meal. They were so easy to communicate with and answered my many questions in a timely manner. They went above and beyond the call of duty and ordered patio heaters a couple of days before our July wedding when the temperature unexpectedly dipped down into the 60s - they knew this was necessary without us even asking! They are wonderful vendors and amazing people!
We will be dreaming about the key lime pie and mac n' cheese for years to come... -

My daughter's wedding was perfect - in no small part because of Michael and Abigale of Trillium Catering. Aside from what a joy they are to work with, the food was superb. Guests have been calling and emailing all week to say it was the best wedding food they've ever had. From the raw oyster bar, to the lobster rolls, to the family style dinner with swordfish, cous- cous, roasted vegetables, and the great signature cocktails - we all felt like we were at the best restaurant in Camden. Everthing was perfectly cooked and piping hot. We liked Mike, Abigale and their team so much that we felt sorry to say goodbye to them. They are delightful, professional and made the wedding a tremendous success. -

We can not begin to articulate how thankful we are that we chose to use Trillium for our catering and to arrange our rentals for us. If you care about food, use Trillium. We asked them to follow a non-traditional reception format and to create a four course menu for us which they did graciously. Every detail supporting the delicious food was perfect from the paper straws and appetizers served on slates with flower accents to the hand service. We have received endless feedback from our guests about the food and the incredibly professional staff at Trillium. -

My wife and I are coming off of our wonderful wedding weekend and a huge part of it being such a success is due to Trillium. I'll start with the food but that isn't the only thing that makes them so great.
As expected, our food tasted exactly as good as it looked. The h'ordeuvres were phenomenal: from the Arancini balls with tomato caper relish (seriously good) to the mini lobster rolls to the corn fritters...they had the crowd buzzing. One guest told us: "You guys pumped up the h'ordeuvres so much and yet still, incredibly, they exceeded expectations. Our family style meal (which was the perfect logistical method for the dinner) was started off with possibly the best salad we've ever tasted (Arugula with grilled peaches and ricotta salata) before we moved on to the mains and sides, which were also fantastic. Abigale and Michael also accommodated our off-book request for late-night chipwiches which were delicious! Multiple guests told us it was the best wedding food they had ever had.
The food alone would earn Abigale and Michael five stars, but their communication and helpfulness during the entire planning process put them over the top. They were are *incredibly* organized and were so pleasant straight from that first phone call through the final minute of the wedding. They offered logistical suggestions and were flexible to our needs. When we ran into a momentary snag in the planning process that was unrelated to catering, Abigale was my first call and she was happy to offer advice.
Naturally, the staff on the day of the wedding were delightful and our guests raved about how friendly everyone was.
We offer a resounding recommendation for Trillium, and would urge anyone who can to book them for their wedding or major event to do so!

Trillium – WOW!!! Michael and Abigale are an absolute dream team! Having started their career at some of the trendiest hot spots in NYC, they bring city sophistication, trend setting and business efficiency to every aspect of the wedding! We gave them quite a challenge with our “non-wedding / wedding” concept, which included “action stations” (servers at stations offering constant turn of hot plates as if at a cocktail bar / party) instead of a formal sit-down meal. Boy did they run with the concept - and it was so utterly awesome, cocktail hour / tapas style all-night – all the guests loved the menu, both in the amazing presentation and taste, yummm! Trillium worked with our creative bar concept and their staff was great as well. We could probably speak for pages about the endless small details and helpful tasks that they handled on our behalf throughout the process (last minute brunch help, leftovers for the after-party, delivering a sampling of all the appetizer’s to our room in between events, the list goes on-and-on). As two business people, we weren’t shy to negotiate the contract either, and negotiating with them was a joy, we always felt like we were on the same team from contract negotiations through the wedding day. They made our non-wedding-standard concept an amazing reality and perfected our understated luxury with New England charm vision! We trusted Michael and Abigale completely and couldn’t be happier with the décor and absolutely delectable multitude of options on the menu!! -

Abigale and Michael were fantastic to work with and we couldn’t be happier with how everything came together. You can really tell how much love and passion they put into their business and food. They worked very closely with us and our planner to make sure rentals, and other small details were taken care of.
We really appreciated how attentive the Trillium staff was throughout the wedding day. We were constantly getting food and drinks brought to us and felt incredibly well taken care of. The staff was also so friendly and warm to all of our guests and we have gotten rave reviews about the service and the food.
The food was incredible. I would love to eat it all the time and really wish they would open a restaurant so that we could keep going back again and again. I have never seen my husband eat a meal faster than when we went for our Trillium tasting. Their meals are creative and beautifully presented and the family style service was exactly what we were looking for and created a great community feel.
Thank you both for a magical meal, vibe, and delicious drinks!!! Would 100% recommend to others :-)

If exceptional food and service that matches is important to you Trillium will not disappoint. Michael and Abigail are consummate professionals with a very warm sense of service. We wanted food that was fresh and inspired that our guests would enjoy and remember. We were not let down and the presentation was also immaculate. Having rentals, staff and other odds and ends taken care of was also a huge relief. On the night we didn't have to worry about a thing, as the service staff, food and arrangements were all taken care of and in very good hands. We cannot praise Trillium highly enough. -

I can't say enough good things about Trillium! Michael and Abigale were a joy to work with, from beginning to end. My husband and I wanted the food and drinks to be memorable at our wedding, and they truly were. Nearly every guest commented on the wonderful food, not just the day of the wedding but the day after too. The food was creative, varied and definitely delicious. Everything was seasonal and fresh and plated beautifully. Michael even made custom cocktails that matched the idea in our head.
Trillium was flexible with our changing requests and made the whole process or choosing a menu, picking dishes and linens, and coordinating rentals very easy. Their staff was friendly and professional. Michael and Abigale were fabulous on the day of the wedding too, setting food aside for us and making sure we were totally taken care of.
For what it's worth, nearly every vendor we worked with made comments about Trillium being the best caterer in the area when they found out who we were using. They said we were lucky to get them and we couldn't agree more! -

From our first phone conversation to the tasting in darling Belfast, ME to our wedding, every interaction we had with Abigale & Michael and the entire Trillium staff was wonderful. Their positive, collaborative attitudes, creativity and professionalism made working with them a dream - and working with kind, capable people during the sometimes-stressful process of planning a wedding can go a long way. All that said, though, the food that Trillium puts out is what truly makes this team such a stand-out team. Every morsel was absolutely delicious and beautifully presented - the pork was divine (absolutely perfectly cooked!) and the late-night shakes & fries were a huge hit. So many of our wedding guests have commented that it was the best food they've ever had at a wedding! We can't recommend Trillium highly enough! -

Food was the most important part of our wedding and it was important to find a caterer whose food was creative, beautiful, and yummy.
As many reviews have mentioned the ease of working with Abigale and Michael, we too had a great experience. They were responsive to our requests and seamlessly planned our rentals, menu, and coordination with our planner... but the food was the star. The food was creative - they used ingredients from all different cuisines, things I had not heard of or tried like freekeh, and old standbys like grilled cheese and tomato soup shooters. The food was beautiful - they adorned the plates of appetizers with flowers and herbs like it is a work of art. And most importantly, the food was delicious - so many people said it was the best wedding food they have ever had and even more said it was better than any restaurant in Portland. Oh, and the cocktails they created were SO GOOD! They were a dream to work with and would certainly recommend them. -

Trillium's food was unreal. Aside from the flavors, they were a joy to work with. They understood the relaxed vibe we wanted to achieve and executed it to perfection. Working with Trillium is like working with old friends. I wish they could cater my life! -

We used Trillium to cater our August wedding in Wiscasset, ME. Our venue did not include catering or bartending options (a reason we chose it), so the catering vendor was one of the biggest decisions to make. We reached out to almost every caterer who serviced the area, and could not have been happier with our decision to choose Trillium. We hired them as a full service vendor, and they were amazing all-around:
- Communication: Their turn-around time for communication is very quick. For the most part, we took care of a lot of planning over email, which they were very quick to respond (within a day), and on a few occasions where I needed to call, Michael always make himself available to answer questions.
- Food: The food was AMAZING. Our guests still talk about the food at our wedding, and tell us it's the best wedding food they've ever had. Everything was fresh, delicious, and beautifully plated. They were happy to serve family style at our request, and helped to build the menu around our tastes, as well as what would work with our table settings.
- Service: The service team was very professional and nice to work with. The food and drinks were served on schedule, and the service team was happy to take care of any extra requests. We used Trillium as our bartending service as well. They worked with us to create out bride and groom drinks, and helped us to coordinate local beers we wanted to serve.
- "Above and Beyond" Factor: My mom especially loved Trillium, as she had small requests throughout the day that they were happy to help with. They also send a survey following the wedding, which I appreciate, as they want feedback to keep getting better.
Overall, our experience them was amazing. It's clear they are passionate and have a lot of pride for their business, and they treat their clients very well. We were very happy with our experience working with them before and during the wedding. -

We selected a beautiful location for our wedding. The next priority on our list was to have exceptionally good food. Abigail and Mike provided this for us! They had good ideas, and were able to modify the menu based on our food preferences as well as price point. They use local ingredients when they can, present the food beautifully, and it comes out nothing like your usual wedding food garbage. Our guests still talk about how delicious our food was. It was nice to use Trillium as well because most of our wedding was DIY (and a ton of work) but they took care of the tent and rentals. It was nice not to have to worry about these things. -

We booked Trillium for our autumn wedding in Maine. We really wanted our reception to feel like a rustic yet elegant dinner. Everything was absolutely prefect!! Trillium's passion for food became apparent in every little detail. The food was beyond our expectation, delicious and beautifully presented. The staff was professional and attentive and made everyone feel well taken care of. Trillium is a true gem and if you are someone that appreciates artisanal cuisine, hire Trillium for your next event!! -

Trillium absolutely blew us away with their incredible food, gracious service and all-around professionalism. My husband and I knew we wanted a family-style meal that included as much locally-produced food as possible for our 100 guest wedding. Michael and Abigale helped us design a beautiful menu that was within our budget. They were quick to answer any and all of my queries over email and phone and had zero problem working around our various "needs" (dietary restrictions, wanting to bring in our own alcohol, needing a bartender for our rehearsal dinner at the last minute). We had no fewer than 15 people come up and tell us it was "the best food they've ever had at a wedding." As foodies and farmers, we were impressed by Trillium's efforts to work with so many Maine producers and beyond happy with the delicious meal they prepared (the cucumber-mango relish on swordfish?!?! yum.) The best part was how completely seamless Abigale and her staff made our wedding day, from cocktail hour to dinnertime wine service to cleanup. We would recommend Trillium in a heartbeat. -

My (now) husband and I got married at my parent's house, so we were responsible for sourcing every single vendor. Catering was one of our biggest decisions, and we considered many caterers before we finally met Michael and Abigale. From the moment we left their cheery test kitchen in Belfast, we knew we had found, at long-last, the folks who understood our "upscale comfort food" vision--and were the kindest, loveliest people in addition to this! We actually stepped out the door after our tasting, got into the car, and then said, "What are we doing?!" and went immediately back in to put down a deposit. My fiance was so visibly relieved that Michael gave him a big hug, which totally embodies Trillium's service. On the actual day of our wedding, Michael was so attentive specifically to my fiance and I--making sure we had apps, drinks, etc. Their entire crew is so professional and fun, and the service on the actual day was impeccable. And this is not to mention, of course, the food! So many of our guests said that it was by far the best food they've ever had at a wedding and were still talking about it long afterward. Michael also handled the coordination of our rentals, which was initially something we thought we'd handle ourselves, but I am seriously so grateful that we didn't have to do so. Michael cheerfully dealt with my requests for crazy things like pink chairs from a separate vendor and handled every tiny detail completely, putting my mind at ease. We are SO grateful to Trillium and would wholeheartedly recommend them! -

We have a lot of foodie family and friends, and so the wedding meal was very important to us - we wanted local, fresh ingredients, beautiful presentation and a tasty menu. At the same time we had a strict budget. Trillium more than exceeded our expectations on all fronts, especially given that we lived outside of Maine and so had to do a lot of corresponding via email and phone. From the first call, they worked with us to craft a menu that was delicious and different, including vegetarian options for some of our friends. We wanted a "family style" meal, which other caterers had been resistant to, but not Trillium - and it worked really well, providing a cozier/friendlier setting, which is what we wanted. One of the biggest perks is that the Trillium staff were really relaxed and flexible and went beyond merely catering the event - for example, they helped move chairs from the ceremony into the wedding tent, set up arrangements, etc. The extra hands were really appreciated and they have exceptional taste, which made for lovely table settings/arrangements in keeping with our rustic-chic theme. Finally, rather than a wedding cake, we had a pie table with a variety of pies, and they went down really well with no leftovers. If you want modern but delicious food made with fresh ingredients and the most stunning presentation with close attention to detail, you cannot go wrong with Trillium. They also provided a full bar service, which was more reasonable than many of the independent bartenders we contacted. This review might sound over the top but almost every guest commented on the quality of the food and said it was one of our wedding highlights, so I can't recommend them highly enough. -

From the outset we knew that we would be in good hands with Michael and Abigail. They were referred to us by foodies in NY and ME, and being spoiled by the farm-to-food available to us where we live in the Hamptons, we were delighted to be able to bring that experience to our guests with Trilliums help. The planning was easy, we pretty much left the choices up to them, with minimal input. The raw bar was a HUGE hit, with bottomless shucking both entertaining and delicious. The main dinner was superb, and especially the vegan option, butternut squash lasagna. OMG can we PLEASE have the recipe? I would love to get married every year if we can throw a party as fabulous as this one. Trillium, was an exceptional choice. -

Abigale and Michael of Trillium Caterers created the most phenomenal culinary experience we've ever encountered at a wedding, or any event for that matter. We had 120 guests and every single person commented that the dinner was excellent and beyond their expectations. The food was unique, sustainable, locally sourced and crafted with care and passion. From a guest arrival Basil Lemonade to unique Blueberry Shortcake dessert at the close, everything was tremendous. The service and attitude of their staff was beyond compare. I can't say enough good things or recommend Trillium highly enough. Choose Trillium, you will be very happy you did. -

Trillium catered our wedding of 140 in August. From the beginning stages of planning Abigale and Michael were hands on--they were helpful with everything from the timeline to the food and drink. The food service was beautiful and delicious. Our guests raved that it was the best wedding food they had ever had--and we agree! -

Michael & Abigale were amazing to work with! Trillium catered our rehearsal dinner as well as our wedding. Our guests are still talking about how amazing their food was! Several our friends have been married since our event but neither the food nor the service at those events can compare to what Trillium brought to the table! They truly made our special weekend one we and our guests will never forget!!! Book them today, you don't be disappointed :) -

You’re silly to not hire
I have worked in fine dining restaurants for over 20 years and I can count on one hand how many times I’ve seen a chef sweep up the floor at the end of service. The end of my wedding night was one of them and that speaks loudly about who someone is as a leader to me. Trillium was the best and only option in my opinion who would be able execute our vision, and folks, they crushed it. I am not an easy person to please when it comes to food, service and everything in between. Michael had food set aside for my wife and I. Constantly making sure we were fed and libated. Chef Abigail nailed everything. We multiple food stations that we had open and close and change throughout the evening (no seated dinner, nor buffet) to the chipwich sandwiches and pizza bagels (had to satisfy my 13yr old self) being passed around the dance floor late night. Everything was beyond perfect. The only downside is you have to wait to be invited to another wedding w Trillium catering to have their food and service again. - Jared aka Groomzilla -

Michelin-star food and service!!!
Selecting Trillium as our caterer was the BEST decision we could have made. My husband is in the hospitality industry (and many of our guests work in management at Michelin starred-restaurants), so we knew we had to meet a pretty high standard for food. Trillium EXCEEDED expectations - not only did they meet my terrible list of *actual* food allergies (my food restrictions would just make you cry, they are so frustrating - and Michael was just like, "We got this, here's what we can make!" as if it were no big deal! I was so stressed about this and Michael's response just took a huge weight off my shoulders!), the food was so great that people asked for the recipes after AND Michael shared the recipes with us (for real - I just made the soup on Tuesday)!!! People can't stop talking about our food, it makes me so happy :-) Also, a very key point: Unlike every other bride I have ever talked to, I ate one of everything at my wedding. Michael personally assigned himself to making sure I got allergy-safe food and brought me trays of everything like every 15 minutes, during photos and cocktail hour - I had pork lollipops and corn soup and just everything I could need, before I even realized I needed it. THEN, they brought us special plates during the reception (which was otherwise family style), so that we had all the food (allergen-free for me!), and still got to walk around and talk to everyone else while they were eating. The team even brought us cocktails regularly. We have high standards and this service FAR exceeded our expectations. They were so helpful in so many other ways, I can't even think of everything else: They helped us find an oyster vendor when ours cancelled at the last minute. They helped us find wine carafes and plan for serving a giant bottle of wine (we uncorked at 12-liter bottle of wine as our version of a cake-cutting - but that bottle is like 100 lbs, not easy to pour from, so they got us decanters to pour it into and bring to each table). Honestly, if you care about food and drinks and service at your wedding, Trillium is 100% worth every penny, they really are amazing - amazing food, amazing people, just exactly who you want to work with on your wedding day. -
