Amazing team, service and food!

Wow! We can't say enough good things about Fords Fluent N' Food. They are so professional and they make sure every detail you're looking for on your wedding day comes true! And of course, their food is incredible! We found them at a local wedding show and it was the best thing we ever did was hiring their team for such an important day in our lives. They were always one time, ready to help, and put their heart and soul into their business, you can feel it!

I would highly recommend this company for your wedding or next big catering event! And they also have their own wedding venue in Cary, NC! We already had our venue booked when we booked them for catering, but I know they run both businesses well and they truly care about the couples and making their dreams come true! Thank you so much Natasha and John for everything you did for us to make our day so special!

Fabulous food

John is an amazing chef and catered exactly to what our wants and needs were for our wedding. The cheese and fruit display during cocktail hour was a huge hit. The sliders and fries bar toward the end of the evening was beautiful and delicious. Could not have asked for better food!

Cannot say enough good things about Fords Fluent N' Food! Not only did I trust them with my own wedding, but I highly recommend them to all others seeking catering for any occasion! People are still raving about the food at my wedding (and rehearsal dinner) 4 months later! Their attention to detail, kindness, care, and concern are second to none! I have no doubt this power couple will continue to take the industry by storm!

Let me tell you a story - I didn't like sushi. I hated it. Wouldn't eat it - and was one of those people that always ordered the hibachi choice on the menu - but I worked one event with Fords Fluent N' Food where they served sushi and now I have a sushi date once a week. When I say these two should own a restaurant I'm not lying. Everything Chef John makes is mouthwatering and delicious. I always recommend them to my clients and love working events where they are there because I know I'm going to be fed and fed well. They are the best!
