    Vibrant Occasions is amazing!!

    AMAZING!! Vibrant Occasions took on so much more than they even had to on my wedding day. Anything that came up that they could take care of they did. The team was incredible and so nice. If there was ever a single hang up I had NO idea. The food was INCREDIBLE. We utilized their bartenders and I can't say I ever saw a line waiting for drinks. Vibrant Occasions even cut my wedding cake. This place knows what they're doing and their team from top to bottom through my entire experience made this stressful time so much more enjoyable. So thankful to have had them part of our big day.

    Excellent!

    Vibrant Occasions was great to work with! From the beginning of wedding planning, to after the big day, Mary and her team were extremely responsive and helpful in all ways possible. They made suggestions to reduce cost, inserted a professional opinion on areas needed and were each extremely well versed with wedding catering. We are still getting compliments on the food and service! Would do it all over again with Vibrant Occasions!

    Best Meal Ever on the Best Day Ever!

    If you want to have the BEST meal of your life on the BEST day of your life (or any day lol), this is who you need to book! Serge, Mary, Leah, and the entire VO team are all very professional, easy to work with, and very kind! It's obvious that they truly care and have a passion for what they do... that goes a long way! Everything we chose was customizable, although our food was SO GOOD at the tasting that nothing had to be changed! We had SO MANY compliments on the food from our wedding. Even my Pastor preached about it from the pulpit the next day! lol

    P.S. I HIGHLY recommend the Banana Foster Action Station... it was a HUGE HIT with the guests!

    The BEST catering in Arkansas!!

    Oh my goodness, I can not say ENOUGH wonderful things about Vibrant Occasions. They were the most amazing people to work with. Even through planning a pandemic, they made the whole process so easy and stress free, from the first meeting, to tastings, to the actual event. And don't even get me started on the actual food!! It was some of the best food I have ever eaten. I am still getting calls a month after our wedding with comments on how amazing the food was. I also so appreciated the fact that they gave us a cooler with containers filled with all of the food from our wedding from the appetizers to the cake. Oh, and they wrapped our top tier up for us to freeze. Mary and Serge are so great, and Leah is absolutely amazing! If you need a caterer, this is the ONLY place to go!!!

    Vibrant Occasions and Vibrant Flavors!

    Oh my stars - this food! Leah and Serge are AMAZING! We ordered the parmesan panko chicken and the pale ale braised brisket, which were both delicious! They topped it off with their Yukon gold potatoes and fresh vegetables. It was our wedding day and yes, I had people to go talk to, but I was definitely going to eat my food! They even made charcuterie boards, fruit tarts, and yummy salads! Not only that, but they even made us a to-go back for my husband and I to take when we left the wedding, complete with everything down to the utensils, plates, and napkins. They were so accommodating, too! Not only did they accommodate us when we had to move our wedding date up due to the threat of the COVID-19 virus but they also made sure to have dishes for our guests with dietary restrictions! We 10/10 highly recommend!

    Vibrant Occasions is Awesome!

    Leah made it so easy to order everything we needed for our wedding. She was so helpful, answered and stayed in communication right up to delivery.

    The food was great and made for an awesome breakfast the next day too!

    If we had to do it all again, I would definitely go with Vibrant Occasions again!

    Spectacular Reception Experience

    We planned a destination wedding in Hot Springs taking place on August 31, 2019. We looked at many caterers to provide the reception dinner, ultimately selecting Vibrant Occasions.
    Owner Mary Krikorian was an absolute joy to work with. Her suggestions and flexibility were invaluable. There is a wide array of dining options and other services.
    The reception dinner presentation was beautiful and the dinner wonderful! The staff performed well above my expectations. Very friendly and attentive!
    I would recommend Mary to anyone whose is planning a special event
    Her business is aptly named, as Mary made sure that our "Occasion" was truly "Vibrant"!

    This was, hands down, the BEST food I've ever had at a wedding. Maybe ever. It was so good, while I was trying to sneak a plate one of my guests tapped me on the shoulder and said, "you're really going to enjoy that!" Everyone is still talking about the food! We had a black angus tenderloin station where they cut the steak to order and it was so tender! It came with a couple of different sauces and they were both divine! We also had a pasta station with tons of toppings and add ins; you got to choose everything you wanted in your pasta and they cooked it to order right in front of you. It was incredible and so good! We also had bananas foster as a supplement to our wedding cake and they cooked it to order, the guests loved when they added the liquor and the flames shot up. It was an excellent experience.! Serge and Mary Krikorian and their entire staff were so fun and happy at the wedding and they were also very easy to correspond with prior to the wedding. We are four hours away, so did everything via email and it was a very simple and easy process. Highly recommend them!

    My husband and I had the pleasure of working with Dinner's Ready for our wedding. The staff was an absolute joy to work with. They were very professional and truly cared about making our experience the best. The food was delicious! Our guests were raving about the food for days. I would definitely recommend using Dinner's Ready for your big day.

    I did notice we ran out of food by the time the groom and I were able to go through the line. But I also think some of the guys piled their plates on. I think some people thought it was a meal when it was just supposed to be snacks. I loved the food tables they looked beautiful!

    Caribbean Feast

    I cannot recommend Vibrant Occasions enough! I had a vision of a Caribbean fusion meal for my wedding because my husband is from the Caribbean and wanted something familiar for his family. Most of the vendors I spoke with didn’t reply or even have anything to recommend from their menu as an option but Mary reached out quickly to set up a call to bring my vision to life. She was responsive, flexible, and the quality was terrific. Major kudos and thanks to Vibrant Occasions!

    What a wonderful experience!

    As the couple's wedding coordinator for their destination wedding in Hot Springs, Arkansas, I worked with Vibrant Occasions for almost a year to create the perfect menu and experience for this special wedding! Leah and her team went above and beyond throughout the proposal process as we had a ton of questions and changes throughout our time working together. The day-off execution was flawless and Leah, Michelle and their team were so fun and great to work with! The food was wonderful and bar service was superb. I really hope I get the chance to work with them again someday and highly recommend them to anyone looking for a caterer.

    Fabulous food and service

    Vibrant Occasions is far and away the best caterer I’ve ever worked with! Their food is wonderful and creative, beautifully presented, and served professionally and courteously. Every aspect of their work is excellent and we couldn’t be happier with hiring them for our daughter’s wedding reception!

    We love Vibrant Occassions

    My daughter recently got married at the Grandeur House. We choose Vibrant Occassions to cater her wedding. My daughter and her fiance choose grilled chicken fettuccine alfredo and bacon wrapped pork loin. They were both wonderful, we received so many compliments from our guest. Mary and Serg were wonderful and kept within our budget. They were present at my daughters wedding and made sure everything ran smoothly. We had a friend who was vegan and Mary made sure he had a meal prepared for him as well. The serving staff was excellent and efficient and very professional. One of the best decisions we made for my daughters wedding.

    Beyond what I expected!

    I would definitely recommend Vibrant Occasions for any catering service in central AR! We had to do some vendor changes last minute due to COVID-19 and Mary and her staff were so amazing to work with!!

    The catering staff worked hard to make our food look presentable but still following all of the current CDC guidelines. The staff was friendly and helpful with so many things plus our wedding guests raved about how good the food was!

    I can't say enough nice things about Vibrant Occasions and would definitely recommend booking for your wedding catering!
