Affordable Catering Inc

They were well priced and the meal was wonderful. They even loaded the leftover food in the car for us following the reception. Only thing I would fault for is I was told a few of the champagne glasses didn't look very clean and a few guests mentioned they asked for them to be washed. Otherwise a perfect experience, communication with our catering coordinator was seamless.

g the food tasted. And they lived up to their name by providing a super affordable meal and liquor package within our budget. The bartenders and servers were super professional and efficient. Additionally, Maria helped us customize our menu and responded to all our questions in a timely manner. I would definitely choose them again for another event.

icest. they gave us paper plates without a head up notice, and while i get less work a heads up would be nice. the food was if anything OK, could have been better, but for the bang for your $$ this place is worth it.

out-of-town bride have exactly what she wants. She was very accommodating to my schedule and even had her staff do a special tasting for me. On my wedding day everyone was pleasantly full and the buffet was hot. My only "complaint" is the staff could have double checked the bride/groom's plate, as it was more room temperature-- this is me being nitpicky. Also, don't let the name fool you into thinking affordable = cheap; they are reasonably priced and all quality professionals and selections. I highly recommend!

d and I ate, which can be difficult for the newlyweds. The food was also so delicious, all my guests loved it!

amazing!!

nen napkins, table linens, and a day-of coordinator. We also used their bartending service as well. We are very happy with our decision to choose Affordable Catering and their inclusive package. Having a large portion of the reception covered by one company made the coordination very convenient. We worked with Eric from the tasting all the way to the week before the wedding. They were very accommodating with changes that we had to make due to COVID. They were always on top of communication, the food was delicious, and the service was excellent. The line for the bar did get a little long at some points, so I would recommend asking if they could do a line for cocktails and a line for beer since we had a couple specialty cocktails that took a little while to make. We cannot recommend them enough, you surely cannot beat the price and the personalized service! Tera was our day-of coordinator through our catering package with Affordable Catering. We cannot recommend her enough – she truly went above and beyond what you would expect for a day-of coordinator. We had a couple phone calls with her prior to the wedding to go over our layout and the best way to organize our DIY decorations. With those phone calls, we could immediately tell that she was extremely professional and knew what we wanted. She arrived early to the venue and had everything set-up exactly as we envisioned! During our photos, she made sure we had a drink and some appetizers since we didn’t get to attend cocktail hour. She made sure that the reception flowed smoothly and checked in with us multiple times to make sure we were happy. She even made me a “toss bouquet” on the spot because I had just assumed that you throw the real one! After the wedding she had everything packed and loaded into the cars. Our wedding was perfect and Tera very much helped that happen.

so willing to help us stay within budget. I'd recommend them to anyone.

hen we had to make a last-minute addition of vegetarian dishes (no thanks to COVID)! We worked primarily with Eric and he was just the best!

the wedding in my parent's backyard - there were about 250 people and they all had plates loaded with food (a few dishes were provided from my family but the majority was from Affordable Catering). The team was amazing, funny, courteous and just a great time.

great! They honestly helped to keep our reception moving and were very organized. If I lived in Florida, I would definitely use them for more events!

h the amount of money paid. I wouldn’t recommend this company.

y moist and delicious, the rice was amazing, and the salads were great! Everyone raved at how delicious everything was. I really appreciate all the effort that the staff went to. We used our own glassware for stemware and plates, and they even helped us box it up afterward, going above and beyond. Truly 5-star service. Don't hesitate to book them!

n mind for future events. I highly recommend them.

tephanie was awesome to work with. She answered all our questions and was very organized whenever we made changes to our menu. The food was amazing and the servers were friendly and efficient.

ond to make sure everything was perfect.

am ended up designing a whole list of options for my husband and I to choose from. On top of all this, the food turned out incredible!

ith Parmesan crusted chicken, herb crusted pork loin with raspberry glaze, grilled veggies, sour cream dill potatoes, and Caesar salad. All the food was fantastic! Thank you Stephanie and affordable catering for the delicious food!

asking my husband and I if we needed anything and they were super quick to set up and break down. I highly recommend them!

t it on hold but had a deposit. Affordable Catering honored our deposit. Their food was so good, we had passed appetizers and chicken for dinner. Everything was delicious and the presentation of the plates, beverage station and fruit and cheese display was very classy! The chicken was moist, the staff was great and they were super easy to work with especially from being out of state! I also hired a day of event coordinator and what a good choice that was!! Tera was a gem and made sure my husband and I along with our wedding party were taken care of with food and beverage! Everything was placed as I pictured and then some!! We highly recommend Affordable Catering for your event! Thank you Stephanie, Tera and team for a great presentation and a wonderful event!

. Also, it was in out contract that we would be able to take the leftover food that we paid for and the servers packed everything up and took it away before the reception ended so we did not receive any of it. Also, the top layer of our wedding cake was thrown into a huge box without care, and became smashed, which may be an issue if you are planning on freezing the top layer. Overall, the food was delicious but the staff members who worked the day of our wedding were not the best and we did not receive everything we paid for.

rdable Catering unfortunately which made me hesitant to book with them. Boy am I glad I did! After great reviews from other vendors I was able to meet with, we decided to work with Affordable Catering! Stephanie was so helpful and was so patient with the changes that I had to make. The food was FANTASTIC and we were so happy with it (including our guests as well!) They were a joy to work with and you won't go wrong if you book them as your caterer!

food ready for us as soon as everyone was seated. We are probably one of the few couples who get to eat at their own weddings and it was outstanding! The stuffed mushrooms were to die for and my husband goes on and on about how great the prime rib was. Absolutely go with this caterer!

the extra time they spent answering my questions, helping me figure out how to lay out the space, etc. I knew we were in great hands with this company, and I am excited to sing their praises to anyone who may be looking for a catering vendor in the future.

know they simply didn’t bring them without giving us the choice to add them and pay for them, we don’t get another wedding day!

how great the service and the food was!!! Definitely recommend them to any bride in the Tampa area!

t up beautifully. My coordinator did a great job setting things up EXACTLY like I instructed. The price was very reasonable and I am, overall, extremely happy with Affordable Catering and our decision to go with them.

od was delicious. The bartender and servers were completely engaging and delightful. Terra , the event manager, ran the operation seamlessly and invisibly. Total professionals. Thank you Terra, Ice, Debra, Nick, and Mark for adding so much to our evening.

ator and they were a great help setting up our reception area as well as coordinating throughout the reception. Hope was our coordinator and she was awesome! Everyone at Affordable Catering was great with answering my questions and setting up our event. They made our day wonderful and they are definitely affordable!

erything from a different state, but the staff made me feel so at ease the days leading up to the big day, as well as the day itself. I emailed back and forth with Stephanie A LOT in the beginning, and she was so understanding and patient with me and all of my questions. Georgie got involved closer to the wedding date, and I had multiple phone conversations with her via telephone and through email which made everything to simple. Georgie was my day of coordinator and as far and I know, things ran flawlessly! My husband and I couldn’t have been happier. Our guests have since told us they thoroughly enjoyed the food (we chose the Chef’s Special Preferred menu), and leftovers were even packaged up for my mother in law to take home (she was housing a lot of wedding guests!!). Overall I had an amazing experience with Affordable Catering and I highly recommend them.

food, Stephanie, the day-of coordinator was excellent. She was very responsive to emails and any questions I had. She made the whole process easy. We highly recommend having the day-of coordinator.

d helpful with anything we needed!

ements from the guest. The price was also very affordable as their name.

super easy to communicate, my now husband and I went to try the food and it was delicious. The day of the wedding were super professional and everyone loved the food!!! Thank you for such great service Maria

his caterer.

s yummy. I ate my whole plate, it was great! They set up beautifully and had a holiday themed menu for our St Patrick’s day wedding! The pricing was great and we got everything we wanted!

well, answered our million questions throughout the year, and helped problem-solve every step of the way. Stephanie was always on-point and was ten steps ahead of us. The catering itself was top-notch and guests couldn't stop talking about how delicious the food was. Hands down, we would definitely recommend to any future customers! Five out of five stars!

azing and made sure everything ran smoothly. Overall the food and service we're great and I would highly recommend them to anyone getting married!
