Tayla Sent on 11/14/2024Best catering service and food on the Northshore!
Vinwood simply has the best food, and the service is top notch. We worked directly with Harmony, who was patient, understanding and accommodating to our needs. From allergies to every detail that goes into planning a wedding, she made it easy for us to sit back and know that everything would be taken care of. Exactly what you need when planning a wedding! My husband and I are dying to have the same meal again that we had at our wedding! We dream of the short ribs and baked haddock… Just know you will be in wonderful hands with Vinwood hosting your next event! -

Courtney Sent on 09/08/2024Amazing food and experience!
Harmony and the Vinwood team did an amazing job during and leading up to our July 2024 wedding at Glen Magna Farms. I was a bit hesitant that the venue only worked with one caterer, but Vinwood was the best there is. We attended a tasting event at the venue, which was a perfect way to visualize the space and the different food options (e.g., stationary cheese table) in the space. We had a super easy time picking our meals for our guests after that event. The food from Vinwood on our wedding day was amazing. Our guests could not stop complimenting the dinner and especially the signature drinks. They were a hit! I was especially appreciative of the Vinwood team making sure me and my husband had everything we needed. After the ceremony, we were greeted with signature drinks and a sampler of all of our cocktail hour hors d'oeuvres. They were also able to give us a side portion of the vegetarian meal (which we LOVED). They really made sure we were well taken care of and had a beverage when we needed one all night. Working with Harmony was also very easy - she is super friendly and organized, and was on top of all the communication and planning for our day. We had a few questions about special meals and allergies, and Harmony made sure that everything was exactly as it needed to be! She even looked into whether we could bring in a favorite beverage, and although they weren't able to do it, Harmony gave us some great recommendations for other options. I would recommend Vinwood to anyone looking for a caterer! -

My wife and I were so impressed with the food, service, and communication from Vinwood, which was the exclusive caterer for our venue (the equally amazing Peirce Farm at Witch Hill). Their team was responsive and helpful during the planning, making great suggestions and helping us out with several special accommodations along the way.
At our wedding itself, the Vinwood team ran like a well-oiled machine. Everything looked great in the cocktail and reception areas, our guests loved the hors d'oeuvres, and all the dinner choices (we had a buffet) were delicious. We would highly recommend! -

Jessica Sent on 04/21/2024Amazing Quality with Upfront Pricing
The food was absolutely delicious, especially the lobster ravioli, dumplings, and beef tenderloin, which were standout dishes. Samantha is very knowledgeable about all of the menu options. She helped us come up with a delicious cocktail hour and dinner. They provided incredible value for the money, with upfront pricing that made budgeting straightforward.
Liz went above and beyond to accommodate dietary restrictions and allergies, ensuring every guest had options. Their assistance with all aspects of the day was so helpful that no additional day-of coordinator was needed.
We received numerous compliments from guests on the quality of the food and the overall experience. Overall, I highly recommend Vinwood for any event; you won't be disappointed!" -

We loved working Harmony and the whole team at Vinwood Caterers at Glen Magna Farms! They were stellar from the start and were so helpful, organized and thoughtful throughout the entire process. They went above and beyond during the planning process which made everything so easy and stress-free. On the day-of everything was perfect! The food was top-notch - from the beautiful hors d’oeuvres at cocktail hour, to the delicious plated meal - everyone was complimenting the food and service, and many guests have told us it was the best wedding food they had ever had! -

Ryan Sent on 12/17/2023Best Wedding Food Ever!!!
We used Vinwood for our wedding, so we are biased, but it was by far the best food we have ever had at a wedding. Their team is awesome (thank you Emily) every step of the way. We had a lot of special requests, and they accommodated them all with no issues. Their menu is extensive, and at the tasting we were able to try a great deal of it, and it was all incredible. Their vegan, vegetarian, and gluten free options were all amazing, and our guests were extremely happy. Everyone at the wedding complimented the food. From the apps and entrees, to the dessert we had instead of cake, Vinwood was the perfect choice! -

Vinwood was the BEST catering company to work with in making our wedding day the perfect day. We were married on November 26, 2022 and our guests still rave about the food months later. Stephanie was amazing. She was attentive, responded in a timely manner and worked with us to customize a few dishes due to diet restrictions. Truly the best catering company out there! -

Robyn Sent on 12/23/2022Truly a phenomenal, above-and-beyond experience
Gary and his team did such a phenomenal job catering my wedding that I honestly cannot adequately describe it. He was joyous to work with in the months, weeks, and days leading up to the date--he was responsive and flexible with all of our myriad concerns. The lead-up alone would lead to me leaving a five star review...and then my wedding happened.
They knocked it out of the park. The wedding was well staffed with an absurdly professional group--everyone was friendly, effective, and frankly delightful. My husband and I had a personal server the entire night (which we didn't know was the plan!)--they made sure we ate by providing us with a gorgeous platter of appetizers during the cocktail hour, and timed our dinner specifically so that we could eat. Gary's coordinator, Barbara, was absolutely wonderful, and basically acted as my wedding coordinator, as I foolishly determined that I could do it all myself. The room flip of ceremony to reception went flawlessly, and they executed my DIY centerpieces absolutely perfectly--the room was a dream. My wedding was running so smoothly due to their professionalism...and then we hit the cake fiasco.
My wedding cake never arrived from the bakery. We said we could make do with the berries and cream that was part of our catering package, but they insisted--they ran out to BJs, got an assortment of cakes to echo the assortment of cakes we'd ordered from the wedding cake bakery, and even decorated a small cutting cake for us so that we would have a nice photo opportunity. Not a single guest knew what was going wrong--the people I told the next day were floored. Gary, who was supposed to leave after the room flip, insisted on staying the whole night to make sure nothing else went wrong.
I honestly cannot say enough wonderful things about Vinwood. They embody everything you would want from a wedding caterer--their food is utterly delicious, the staff is professional and delightful, and it is so obvious how much they care. Gary honestly feels like family, and I wish I could invite Gary, Barbara, and everyone else who worked my wedding over for a thank you dinner. Use Vinwood; I can promise you will not be disappointed. -

Lizzy Sent on 11/18/2022Best Wedding Food!
My husband and I did a brunch menu for a variety of reasons. Vinwood was one of the five caterers recommended by our venue, but we choose them due to the variety of menu choices for our brunch wedding.
The day of the staff was phenomenal, the manager in charge made sure to find me and introduce herself to me so my husband and I could request anything from her. The staff assisted my husband and I in our meals, but also the guests, carrying plates and cups from the buffet to their tables.
When walking around to the tables, many guests told me that it was the best wedding food they have ever had, not only did they love the brunch idea but the food itself was the best. -

Natalie Sent on 09/10/2022Top-notch catering
We got married at Glen Magna Farms, and Vinwood Caterers is the exclusive caterer for their events. We had an excellent experience working with Vinwood, and the quality of their food and service on our wedding day was outstanding.
Since they do their tastings in a group format with a pre-set menu, the majority of the hors d’oeuvres and entrées that we selected were ones that we had not tried at our tasting. Luckily, our menu selections worked out well and were tastier than we had been expecting for a large-scale catering event.
We appreciated that Vinwood was happy to help us personalize our menu options (swapping the vegetable/starch selections for our main courses and helping us customize a vegan/vegetarian option), and was also very reasonable about accommodating a few changes to our bar menu. Vinwood provided transparent pricing throughout the process, and that pricing (at least for our venue) was inclusive of things like linens, china, glassware, etc.
On our wedding day, Vinwood provided excellent service with attentive servers and efficient bartenders. We were grateful for a seamless catering experience with Vinwood!

We used Vinwood for our July 2022 wedding and it was the best decision EVER! Everyone we communicated with was super friendly and knowledgeable, answering my many many questions over the year of planning. Harmony was our main coordinator and she was just honestly such a breath of fresh air. We had multiple meetings discussing all the details leading up to the big day, and then on our wedding day she was so calm and collected and organized. Multiple guests commented on how seamless the day was, how the food was delicious and the drinks were flowing. It was the perfect day, thanks to Harmony and Vinwood :) -

Vinwood catered my June 2022 wedding at Misselwood and everything was absolutely amazing. From the earliest planning stages Gary was wonderful to work with and gave us some really excellent planning tips that I never would have even thought of! On the day of Gary, Barbara, and the rest of the Vinwood team were fantastic, and most importantly all of the food was amazing! Our guests could not stop talking about how it was some of the best wedding food they have ever had. I have Celiac and everyone on the Vinwood team was so attentive in making sure I got plenty of delicious gluten free food during cocktail hour and dinner. Immediately after the ceremony the team brought some of all of the h'ors douvres out especially for our family and wedding party so that we could all have a moment to enjoy each other's company and our food, which was so appreciated! A huge portion of their menu is naturally gluten free so I didn't feel like I was missing out on anything! I would recommend Vinwood to any couple planning a Massachusetts wedding, you will not regret it! -

Jeanmarie Sent on 03/01/2022Truly the best in every way!
Our experience with Vinwood was truly amazing! Our wedding is in June, however we have a family member who is sick so we decided to get married early and have a small ceremony/reception last Saturday. We contacted Vinwood not knowing if the short notice would be possible (we contacted them three weeks before the wedding). From the minute we contacted them they went out their way to help us and ensure that this day was going to be the most special for us and our family. They were very attentive and responsive. Their pricing and services included were also very reasonable and actually better than two other caterers we looked at. The food was absolutely delicious!! We had so many compliments on how good the food was and how attentive the bar staff (Boris) was. He went out of his way to go around to each table and make sure there were no empty glasses or to top off anyone who wished it!
Barbara (the manager) was also such a huge a help to my husband and I throughout the entire reception. She greeted us when we came in from pictures and said “You both must be freezing! Can I get you some Coffee? Tea? Wine?” She then led us over to one of the radiators that she said gave off some good heat so we could warm up before we entered the room. She then helped keep us on track for the remainder of the night. She made sure we had our food first and then notified us when to cut the cake so that we could stay on time.
The staff helped make this day so special for all of our family and friends and we are forever grateful. We know the company is very busy, so to take the time to make this happen in such a short notice is truly amazing. If you need caterer for an event, Vinwood is the best! -

Wendy Sent on 11/28/2021Best caterer out there
Hands down the best food I have ever had at a wedding. Food was very important to us for our big day, and Vinwood was simply the best. The food was tasty, Gary was wonderful to work with as he was flexible and super responsive. I wish I could go back and eat my wedding food again and again because it was that good. Everything from the raw bar to the bread to the meals was INCREDIBLE. They made the entire process so easy and accommodated all my guests with ease. Book them now, a better wedding caterer does not exist, trust me. -

Besides marrying my husband, using Vinwood caterers was the best decision I made for the wedding. They were so easy to work with, the food and cocktails were amazing, and I loved that they came with a day of coordinator because our venue didn’t have one! They made sure the bride and groom got plenty of apps during cocktail hour and we got so many compliments on everything from the apps, dinner, and drinks! Special shout-out to Stephanie for being an amazing coordinator she handled the ceremony and reception and made sure we had enough to eat and drink! I would highly recommend working with them! -

Stephanie Sent on 10/12/2021So thankful for Vinwood!
We chose Vinwood catering after attending a wedding in October 2019….and boy am I glad we picked this caterer! We originally had our wedding scheduled for 11.07.20, but due to COVID, we weren’t able to have it on that date. I reached out to Gary, our event manager, in May of 2020 and expressed my concern about our wedding not being able to happen. He completely understood and let me know that we would absolutely be able to change our wedding date and move our deposit to a new date, the following year. There were no questions asked and never made me question my decision! This caterer made my stress significantly less because of how accommodating they were throughout the entire process! I didn’t have to worry about paying extra for moving my date (I heard horror stories from other brides about other vendors), but I never once had to worry about anything! Their food is delicious and the communication with the staff is amazing! 10/10 would recommend Vinwood for your catering! The staff was great! Make sure you choose their butternut squash raviolis! Gary…THANK YOU! Sincerely, a COVID pandemic bride who appreciates everything you did !! -

Vinwood Catering COMPLETELY blew all my catering expectations out of the water! From the very start, Ashley was an absolute delight to work with. She was so informative and very responsive. The Vinwood staff was absolutely incredible at keeping up with the demand for passed appetizers during cocktail hour, so much so that my guests had trouble deciding which appetizer to go for! I continue to get remarks about how the food was the best wedding food anyone has ever tasted, and how accommodating the staff was! Everything from the passed appetizers to the plated meals were cooked to perfection, hot, fresh and delicious. (This is coming from a family of foodies who are a tough crowd to please). The real MVP of the show was the Catering Manager, Kristen. She was an absolute sweetheart was a dream to work with. She was continuously looking out for me, and even helped fix my dress before walking down the aisle! I am over the moon with choosing Vinwood as a vendor, and would HIGHLY recommend to anyone getting married who wants delicious food served by kind/thoughtful people.
