All in all, the food was delicious and the company itself was very easy to work with. Cory was our point of contact and responded in a very timely manner. Payment schedule was clea...
rly communicated to us and people were very kind. Service was overall a very positive experience, and a few specific details we requested were taken care of swiftly.
Much of this review is about how outrageously priced everything in involving this catering company was. The baseline price of each dish is already much higher than the finest dining restaurant we have been to, and the tax and service charges on top lead to even the most basic dishes costing over $100 per person, literally doubling the price. Every single thing that was added on costed more as well. For example, to have mugs for the coffee instead of paper cups, it was an added $500 cost. Catering dessert through the company was extremely expensive, and even using them just to cut the cake would’ve costed thousands of dollars. We had to completely outsourced desserts and work with a different caterer after dinner as a result.
In addition, food that was unfinished, including for the bride and groom, was taken away well before much of it was eaten.
The tasting was very important for us as the gap between the good dishes, and the very poor tasting and poor quality dishes was wide. After tasting the wine options with Hitch and Sip, we completely cut wine out of our menu.
Our venue required that we choose from one of two catering options, so we were stuck paying these insane prices. Otherwise, we would’ve gone with another more affordable catering company. The outcome was very positive, but it came at a great price point, costing over half of our entire wedding cost.

k was very positive from our guests! All of the food was hot and fresh and not overcooked! I want to find an excuse to have them cater for us again so we can have more of the squash ravioli! The day of, they also made sure to set aside appetizers for my husband and I so we wouldn't have to fight the crowd to get to them!

We loved the food and all our guests enjoyed the food too! Our only suggestion would be to get heavier duty silverware instead of plastic silverware for the pork/chicken dishes. We...
had some guests who were not able to cut into the meat easily. The prices seemed pretty steep for the food as well. Otherwise, we loved how the food turned out and how smooth the buffet style serving was. We recommend the pork, stuffed chicken, Gouda potatoes and the buttered rolls.

We booked Apples2Apples because we liked that it was a little bit fancier than the BBQ option. The food was great and we got lots of compliments on the butternut squash ravioli! It...
was a bit expensive, but it was the only option we had through our venue. All of the service we received was great, both during the wedding and the planning process. We had one slight problem with the bar but the bartenders were flexible. The representative we worked with recommended 50 seltzers for our 100 guest wedding. Well, they were gone before cocktail hour was over. We found out from guests that they were being charged for seltzers and my mom had to work it out with the bartenders and pay for more because we wanted to host most of the drinks. We just wish we were informed when the seltzers ran out and given the opportunity to fix it before guests started paying.

We really enjoyed our experience working with Apples 2 Apples! They were responsive and communicative and always willing to answer questions and provide recommendations/insight. We...
and all our guests thoroughly enjoyed the food (both the taste and the quality) and were very thankful to have lots of options for gluten-free and vegetarian meals. Our primary con with Apples 2 Apples was the price. Although the food was delicious, we felt the price was a bit steep and were very caught off guard with our initial quote. We would have appreciated a bit more flexibility and transparency in pricing. Overall, the food was a hit and we were very satisfied with our experience!

The simplest praise I can give is that we universally heard from our guests that this was perhaps the best meal they’d ever had at a wedding. In particular, the butternut squash ra...
violi was a huge hit among both vegetarians who were happy we didn’t phone in their meal option, and non-vegetarians (like the bride) who considered it their favorite option. Everyone was so lovely to work with, allowing us to send some family members to an initial tasting (as we live out-of-state), and hosted a final tasting for us to confirm our menu choices later on. They were flexible with managing allergies, and extremely professional with their table service. The food was absolutely top-notch, and this was at our own family home where they were relegated to the garage to prepare in. We made an excellent choice.

James, the Vice President of Operations & Corporate Sales doesn’t even follow the contract that customers sign. He interprets it in his own way and becomes an immovable force threa...
tening clients who are having an issue or needing to cancel for whatever reason and making it as difficult as possible to get anything resolved. He will do everything he can to steal your money.
We were supposed to have an event with them in November of 2022 after having to reschedule due to COVID. After many issues with family members continuing to be concerned about COVID we decided to fully cancel our big wedding and just elope instead. We reached out to A’britin well over the 90 days that they require to let them know of this unfortunate circumstance. We asked them to refund us money that was not stated in our contract as non refundable. We did not ask for The Retainer back (which is stated as non refundable a couple times in the contract) we asked for the Additional Retainer (which is not stated as non refundable) back. We had been told by the consultant we were working with when we were originally thinking of cancelling that we would be getting the Additional Retainer back if we canceled before the 90 day point.
James immediately became incredibly hostile, he did not seem to understand what we were asking for, even though we attempted to tell him numerous times. He insisted that we were simply not agreeing even though the statement in their contract is incredibly clear. He threatened us with lawyers numerous times stating that they would not be refunding us anything even though the contract he kept sending pieces of was very clear that the Additional Retainer we were asking for was not stated as non refundable.
Since they believe they have resolved this issue, we are free to post this review. Please do yourself a favor and DO NOT work with them. They seem friendly and helpful until you have an issue and then you are put in touch with James, who’s email signature is honestly laughable.
His signature states: “We listen to our clients and treat them like family to provide a meaningful, trusting and lasting relationship.”
If this company believes in that statement then the way James is conducting business on their behalf is not representative of their core values. I would not recommend this company to ANYONE, in fact I will be contacting all the vendors who have this company listed on their preferred vendors list and letting them know of this incident and advising them and anyone planning their wedding to steer clear of A’britin Catering and their affiliates.
