Molly (. Sent on 04/16/2024Stop Shopping Around—JDK is IT.
Picture it: January 20th, 2024. I stumble my way out if the cold and into the King Mansion in Harriaburg, PA, with a chill in my bones and a wild request. Due to a very happy but very unexpected chain of events, my (now) husband (!!!) had to relocate for a job and our wedding planning timeline was reduced to 3.5 MONTHS.
But, for JDK, this was no problem. Abby LaBar, Brooke Maier, and the entire team executed our day with nothing but professionalism, kindness, and a level of panache that is, frankly, unmatched. The food? Incredible. The bar? Spectacular. When gusts of wind threatened to rip the veil from my head and send it sailing over the Susquehanna, I had no fewer than FOUR people blocking me from the wind and making sure I didn't get Dorothy Gale'd into the stratosphere and become a tragic (but funny) story on the 6 o'clock news.
Over all, I cannot say enough good about my experience working with JDK, and my wedding day was absolutely wonderful because of their hard work! -

JDK was incredible to work with, and not only that but the food was incredible. We decided to go with a dual entrée, Beef Tenderloin and the Fried Chicken... yes you heard that right! Both were INCREDIBLE! All our guests made it known to us that it was one of the best wedding dinners they have had. The staff was great on our day, my husband and I did not go a minute without food or drinks being offered to us. Which was super helpful running around!
What really stood out about JDK was my main contact, Lexi Leech. I was in contact with JDK a long time since I booked my wedding early so I had so many questions and my mind changed about 100 times before my actual wedding. Lexi Leech was there for it all, she was prompt, kind and flexible. She showed me numerous options, and truly seemed to care about making my day what I hoped for. My day would not have been as beautiful and perfect without her help.
Highly recommend JDK for your day or event! -

My wife and I booked The JDK Group to cater our wedding and it was such an amazing decision! We worked with Ashley and she helped us with EVERYTHING! Ashley helped us pick out some of the best food we've ever had. From first contact, to the tasting event, to picking our wedding food and place settings, and most importantly, the big day: Ashley made sure everything was PERFECT. The entire experience was absolutely perfect and we couldn't have asked for a better catering company, and catering specialist, for our wedding. Ashley was such an amazing and kind person who helped in any way she could, even for things not related to catering. If you are on the fence about JDK, book them! You will not regret it. -

Brooke and the JDK team are outstanding! From start to finish, they delivered exceptional service and top-quality flowers.

The floral and design aspects were breathtaking and better than I could've imagined. The whole team made our day truly special. We highly recommend them! Thank you for making our wedding unforgettable! -

Colton was wonderful!!
Colton and his team did an amazing job with our wedding florals! Colton was very easy to work with, flexible and personable. He was patient with my ever-changing mind and really saw my vision and ran with it. The florals were absolutely stunning and better than I could have ever envisioned! JDK took care of the entirety of our guest table centerpieces which took a huge load off our plate. Their beautiful designs added the perfect touch to our wedding day. Thank you, Colton and the JDK team! -

Jessica R. Sent on 11/20/2022Our Food was Amazing
We chose a JDK wedding venue, so they were our caterers. We chose to have dinner stations and ended up with a chef assisted pasta station, make-your-own taco station, make-your-own cheesesteak station, and a salad station. Everything was so good. Our guests enjoyed going to eat whatever food they wanted (and could get seconds and thirds of) everyone told me they loved everything they tried. I definitely recommend JDK. -

We had nothing short of an amazing experience with Lexi and the JDK group/decorative group. Our guest are still raving about the 5 star quality of food: everything was cooked to perfection, along with the beautiful decor and attentiveness to details and designs.
We ordered the short ribs and salmon as the main dish and the Beef melted in your mouth with the blue cheese accompaniment that was to die for!. Salmon was spot on!.
The decor was beyond how we envisioned it: simple, eloquent and the attention to detail with design was sport on.
Lexi (head coordinator of JDK) was very flexible, accommodating and a simple joy to work with through out our whole process. The entire JDK crew went above and beyond expectations. Special shout out the the Head of the JDK catering crew at our wedding at The Booking House 10/1/22: We learned afterwards you discovered one of our guest had allergies we were not aware of, and you went out of your way to help them with having staff specifically accommodate them with there food choices. We can't say how much we were touched by that attentiveness.
Thank you everyone who played a part of our special day and going above and beyond. You really made our wedding day beyond special and everything we could of dreamed of.
Thank you
Annie and Kelly -

JDK was such a pleasure to work with. We could feel that Abby and her staff truly cared about our event and did everything they could to ensure it went off without a hitch! We had so many guests come up to us & say how much they enjoyed the food, how easy it was to get a drink & how accommodating the staff was. From the bottom of our hearts we couldn’t be more appreciative or recommend them more 💗 -

Catering and Florals
We could not speak more highly of JDK. JDK catered our wedding reception at the Historic King Mansion. We had a bit of an unusual request- instead of a seated dinner, we had passed and stationed hors d’oeuvres and food stations for dinner. Julianna was amazing in helping us realize our not-so-traditional vision. She was with us every step of the way, was prompt about responding to calls and emails, and kept all the trains running on time day of the wedding. We love Julianna! The food was amazing and our guests raved about everything! The favorites were the chicken and waffle cone appetizer and the flank steak, which was part of the carving station. We also cannot speak more highly of the entire staff. When we arrived at the reception, my husband and I asked for a few minutes alone before we greeted guests. JDK had a plate of appetizers and glasses of champagne waiting for us in the bridal suite. We had servers making sure we were taken care of throughout the night. Highly recommend JDK!
JDK also did our floral designs for both the church and our reception space at the King Mansion. Colton was amazing to communicate with leading up to the wedding. He responded almost immediately to every email that I sent to him. He also reviewed all of the pictures I sent in preparing and adjusting our quote. The day of, Stephanie did a fantastic job! Our vision came to life, both at the church for our ceremony and at the reception space. The bouquets and boutonnières were exactly what I wanted and definitely enhanced our photos. The centerpieces were stunning and we received so many compliments on everything. -

High Quality Food & Florals
Colton and his team did an AMAZING job with our wedding florals at The Bond in York, PA - the pops of color and touches of boho, all within a moody and romantic palette, was executed perfectly. I definitely wanted some color brought to the gray industrial space, with but with a relaxed elegance. We really couldn't be happier with the tone the florals set in the reception space. Our ceremony florals were equally as gorgeous, delivered to St. Joseph's in York, PA. I planned my wedding from afar, and Colton was so easy to work with - spot on, very professional, and the florals/design was affordable. Our JDK venue coordinator, Lexi, was incredibly helpful after a staffing transition - she swooped in about two months before the wedding and helped place the finishing touches on our design, including finalizing our linen colors, ordering chargers and velvet napkins. It was so helpful to have JDK handle those rentals instead of outsourcing another vendor myself. Lexi was thorough and made sure our personal decor was set up perfectly at the venue. Our ceremony was offsite, so it was such a relief to arrive at The Bond and have everything set up and looking gorgeous. I finally want to note that the food is fantastic - our guests are still raving about the brussel sprout lollipop butlered hors d'oeuvres, the handmade guacamole station at cocktail hour, and our margarita signature cocktail. The venue, food and esthetic did not disappoint! Highly recommend JDK Catering and Weddings by JDK for your wedding at The Bond or elsewhere! -

Weddings by JDK designed and produced the wedding of our dreams. From start to finish we could NOT recommend Weddings by JDK, Colton or his team more. They will take your vision and make it a reality! In fact, they took our vision and made our wedding more dreamy and boho and perfect than we could have ever imagined. This is one extremely talented, creative team, that's easy and a pleasure to work with. They're responsive and imaginative and we can't recommend you hire them more! -

Extremely impressed
Wow! From the start I knew I didn’t have to look any further for our wedding caterer. Lexi kept in touch with me every step of the way and answered my million questions in a very timely manner during the planning process. We were drawn to them because they offer a Raclette station (hard to find). When we tasted the food, we were blown away. It was the best tenderloin I’ve EVER eaten. During our event, we were extremely pleased with how efficient the staff were. The staff members ensured we had anything we needed. The bartender was very kind. They offered to bring decor for their tables, and even worked to help the other vendors! Would 10/10 recommend -

We were extremely satisfied with the service of Weddings by JDK for our wedding at the Farm at Eagles Ridge in Lancaster PA. Molly in particular was just so great and she was truly so easy to work and communicate with. She helped custom-tailored our menu to fit our vision perfectly. Our guests raved about the food for both cocktail hour and reception. The staff was wonderful on the day of the wedding and always kept us fed.
We would highly recommend JDK!! -

Colton and his team are ANGELS! You can really tell this is a passion not a paycheck for them- the time and love they put into the flower- the decor the smallest details…. I couldn’t have done what they did… this is truly the decision that made our wedding complete. -

Jdk is the best!
Molly and her team at JDK are simply the best! We are so happy we chose them for our wedding day. Throughout our entire wedding planning process they were responsive and literally catered to all of our needs. Everything the day of our wedding was exactly as planned thanks to Molly orchestrating everything. She went above and beyond her role, even adding extra decor to enhance displays. The food was absolutely delicious!! Our wedding guests couldn’t stop talking about the appetizers long after cocktail hour was over and almost everyone cleaned their dinner plates. Everything was fabulous thanks to JDK -
