They answered all of our questions and were so accommodating to last minute changes and updates. Their attention to detail and work ethic made our day run so smoothly and really allowed us to enjoy the day with our friends and family. The entire catering team for our wedding day was phenomenal and provided such an elevated experience. Also people RAVED about the food. We got compliments on it all weekend! Thank you Butler’s Pantry team for making our day incredible!

Butler's Pantry catered our Wedding at The Coronado and did a WONDERFUL job. Tasha and Lindsey were fantastic to work with pre-wedding and helped ensure the food (and decorations) we selected were perfect for everyone. Because of their intentionality, we got so, SO many compliments on our hors d'eoeurves and dinner options. More importantly, we heard time and time again at how kind and patient the service staff were. One bartender went out of his way to ensure my Wife and I had our favorite drink in our hand at all times which was both a funny and much-needed touch. Simply put, they were absolutely fantastic and we are so grateful for them!

Dream come true! After 2 years of postponement due to Covid we finally got to have our big party at the Caramel Room, by Butler’s Pantry. Beautiful venue and amazing staff. The food was incredible and so delicious. I had many people coming up to me during the reception to tell me how this was, hands down, the best dinner they ever had at a wedding. They are professional, helpful, and very coordinated. I would have never known if there was an issue, they took care of everything. I highly recommend them, they are worth every penny.

We had our wedding reception at the Caramel Room / Butler's Pantry.
We worked with Kaitlyn and Caroline leading up to the wedding day and they were AMAZING to work with. They paid attention to our "wants" and gave honest feedback when we needed it the most. They answered all my questions very timely and for that I am so grateful.
My one and only complaint was that we ran out of food at the reception. We had a guest list of 275 people and they had prepared food for 300. While that should have been plenty, I think since it was 100% self-serve people took portions that were larger than they should have been. My only regret is not thinking this through ahead of time. Looking back, I would have rather paid for extra food / servers to dish out the food to avoid this issue since it was a little embarrassing that certain guests were only able to have veggies / salad.
At the end of the day, everything else went PERFECT and we are so grateful.

The Coronado and Caroline with Lindsey from Butler's Pantry did an AMAZING job with our wedding! Everything was perfection from the food, the up-lighting, the entry way decor, and the ballroom. They are easy to work with and very professional. Any questions I had, Caroline or Lindsey always responded back to my email within 24 hours if not sooner. I would recommend the Coronado for anyone looking for a BEAUTIFUL wedding venue and Butler's Pantry for DELICIOUS wedding food!
Love, Kalee & Andrew❤️

After our first caterer pulled out (long story, but in short, he decided right before our tasting that he was unable to accommodate our dietary restrictions after previously saying it wouldn’t be an issue), we went with Butler’s Pantry, and it was one of the best decisions for our wedding.
For a Jewish wedding, we required some dietary restrictions, namely that no pork or shellfish be used, and that dairy and meat not be served in the same course. Butler’s was amazing with this, even going so far as to substitute a vegan cream cheese for one of the hor d’oeuvres we liked. They were also able to provide sealed kosher meals for our Orthodox guests, and vegan meals for our vegan/vegetarian guests that were just as good as the meat main courses.
Everybody loved the food, and the service and professionalism was impeccable. They even set out a plate of hor d’oeuvres and two glasses of champagne for my husband and I in a private area after the ceremony so that we could eat something early and spend more time greeting our guests during the meal. They also *always* made sure my wine glass was filled at the reception without me having to ask (dangerous, but appreciated!)
The options we were given for linens and chargers were stunning and really pulled everything together visually as well.
They are 100% worth the price. My husband even said that they reminded him of Kristen Bell’s catering company from Party Down (NOT Adam Scott’s).

People are STILL talking about the food/bar/hors d'oeuvres from our wedding months later. The process of choosing our menu, taste testing, and finalizing all the details was such an easy ordeal with Butler's Pantry. The service during the reception was absolutely top notch and they kept the party going smoothly all night. We didn't have to worry about a single thing and it all looked beautiful, tasted amazing, and was perfectly poured lol. Colleen especially was such an amazing resource and helped us so so much. Definitely worth it!!

We got married a few weeks ago and we are still hearing from our guests about how much they loved the catering from Butler's Pantry at our wedding. Absolutely everything was amazing from them; we especially loved the Cape Cod salad and the beef Wellington we had for dinner. They were so easy to work with and were very accommodating for anything we asked of them. They sent home plenty of leftovers and they were even sweet enough to save appetizers from cocktail hour for my husband and I while we were doing photos! They were the best caterers we could have possibly had and I highly recommend working with them! Paton and Chelsea were a delight to work with and I cannot thank you two enough!

Our daughter got married last Saturday, 1/30/2021 at Silver Oaks Chateau and Butler’s Pantry did the catering. The food was outstanding! We had passed appetizers that were so good and enjoyed by all of the guests as well as a plated dinner that was incredible! Definitely not your typical wedding food. Plus, Butler’s Pantry took excellent care of our guests with different needs...vegetarians, gluten free, etc. They have an extensive menu including bar packages to choose from. When we attended the menu tasting to finalize our selections, I was so pleased to see it set up in a private, beautifully decorated room that made it feel like a “moment” for the Bride & Groom. All dishes were portioned well and the presentation was lovely. Our package also included the Bride & Groom’ s specialty cocktails as well as a “late night” snack (we chose waffles). Butler’s Pantry also provided the table linens, napkins and chargers and had a large selection from which to choose. Our wedding contact was Paton Nix and she was amazing to work with. Both professional, kind and caring! I highly recommend Butler’s Pantry to all!

Butler’s Pantry was amazing to work with. They exceeded our expectations for a wedding caterer. As the primary vendor in planning a wedding reception, Butler’s Pantry gave us confidence that our reception would perfect, and it was. They have a dedicated contact that works with you throughout the planning and pricing, and a dedicated coordinator onsite, both of which were extremely responsive and professional. Their entire staff was extremely professional and kind throughout the reception.
Being a leader in the catering industry of Saint Louis, they provided great input for us and were flexible in changing and modifying their standard practices and policies in order to not only abide by the ever changing social gathering requirements of 2020 but also to ensure we were as safe as possible. We had our reception at the World’s Fair Pavilion, and highly recommend Butler’s Pantry for this venue. They are familiar with the venue, and with the Parks department and their requirements. They may seem more expensive, however, when you take into account all the rentals, tables, and other Parks Department requirements, they are just as competitive as their competitors at this venue. The value they bring in coordinating, planning and executing the catering, set up, rentals, other vendor coordination and clean up, far exceeds any additional coordination, time and effort, we would have had to do ourselves if chosen another caterer. Their onsite catering coordinator seamlessly collaborated with our wedding coordinator, and DJ, allowing for an incredibly smooth reception.
We are so thankful to have worked with Butler’s Pantry in planning and executing our wedding reception at the World’s Fair Pavilion. You will not be disappointed with this caterer. If Butler’s Pantry is a caterer at a venue you like, you must hire them! They are absolutely incredible! THE BEST CATERER in St. Louis!

Butler’s Pantry-how do we say thank you?! We are 3 out of 4 weddings with you now. Each one different and each one a total success. I will NEVER have a party or reception without using your amazing company! You can customize any requests, you always say yes and then figure it out so as not to upset the client. Your staff is professional, friendly, always positive and perfect. Our New Years Eve wedding could not have happened without you all and we are forever grateful! Thank you Tasha for taking the lead and everyone who worked, cooked , tended bar and helped in any way. We love you all!!

Shocked. That’s all I have to say. But honestly, this was the best wedding food I ever had!!! The staff was sooooo friendly and so quick! All of our guests were complementing us all night about the food and service. The bartenders. WOW. They were so quick with serving our guests and ever single person was so attentive and friendly. The event managers were amazing. They really helped us customize our menu and drink package. If you are foodies like us - book them now!! They are worth every single penny and will make sure you have the most amazing night and all of your guests will be treated like guests of honor.

The team of Chef Vince, Tasha, Caroline, Bridget and everyone else who helped plan our reception menu were so incredible. Five stars is not enough! From the initial planning phases, to the tastings and final event, everything was executed flawlessly. We wanted high-end, yet fun foods for our guests to eat. We didn't want a typical sit down dinner and BP made that happen in the most incredible way. We had the most elevated, tasty station-style dinner and I could not have been more please with the outcome. Our guests could not stop raving about all the creations Chef Vince had come up with, especially the Nashville hot sliders bites!! Tasha, Caroline and Bridget brought so much creativity to the table when it came to menu planning and we could not have pulled off something this amazing without them. The whole evening was a dream and was made possible by BP. I plan to use them for all my catering needs moving forward!

We used Butler's Pantry for our wedding at the Barnett on Washington, and they were amazing! We had served hors d'oeuvres during a cocktail hour, and guests loved our choices. My husband and I didn't have a chance to eat during the cocktail hour, but to our surprise and delight they'd made a plate of hors d'oeuvres just for us, so when we sat down we got to eat them too! We had a served dinner, and the food was delicious. We had so many compliments from our guests! If you want to have tasty food served by incredible professionals I highly recommend Butler's Pantry!

We booked our wedding reception with Palladium Saint Louis, and their exclusive caterer is Butler's Pantry. The food they create is beautiful and delicious! They use unique flavors, they have seasonal menus, and they allow you a generous tasting to plan out the menu for your event. There were a variety of tiered options we could choose for our menu. We chose a menu that had three different passed hors d'oeuvre and a buffet with a salad, pasta, meat, a vegetable, and bread. If you so choose, you can have a sit down dinner. The staff was so great about making their way through the large venue space to pass out the appetizers during our cocktail hour to all of the guests. We received multiple compliments regarding the food at our wedding reception, and we could not agree more! There are many things you can stress and worry about on your wedding day, but food should not be one of them! Do yourself a favor, and book Butler's Pantry as your caterer!!

Butlers pantry catered our wedding reception at The Palladium and their food was mind-blowing good! Everything from the hors d'oeuvres to the main course to the friendly staff who served and bartended was absolutely incredible. Ourselves and our parents are still receiving glowing compliments from guests on how delicious the food was. If you have any event, these are your people for food. You won’t be disappointed. -Andy & Stephanie (wedding 10/10/19).

Coleen, Chelsea, and the Butler's Pantry team are so much more than 5 stars. They are a local catering company that exceeds all expectations. Our wedding was not the run of the mill wedding meal. We decided on four food stations in theme with "Meet me in St. Louis". They delivered perfectly. My guests are still talking about our food and the exceptional bar service.

Butler's Pantry was perfect! Our daughter's wedding/reception was at the Piper Palm House and BP is the only caterer they will use. For good reason! Everything went like clockwork. Their staff was very friendly and professional and knew precisely what should be done. Jessica was very easy to work with and a great help. She responded to all my emails promptly. No stress!
I would highly recommend Butler's Pantry for your event.

We are so thankful that we chose Butler's Pantry to cater our wedding at Laumeier Sculpture Park. From beginning to end Jessica & Ciara were amazing to work with. Our family has many dietary needs - gluten free, vegan, vegetarian, kid plates and meat eaters - and they were able to accommodate ALL these needs and the food was exceptional! Our guests are still commenting on it. Truly a wonderful experience....

We made a mid-course change with our catering company, for my daughter' wedding, and selected Butler's Pantry. While I thought we were behind the eight ball with getting started with a new company, for a large scale wedding that was less than three months away, Jessica and Ciara, of Butler's Pantry, handled everything with aplomb and kept our minds at ease.
We had over 200 people to the wedding, had to work around thunderstorms during the day, and luckily, beautiful weather in the evening, which meant their staff had to adjust accordingly.
As the Mother of the Bride, I was completely confident that everything from the cocktail hour to the end of the night snacks, would go off without a hitch, and it did. They even arrived promptly the next morning to handle all of our Brunch needs. I literally didn't have to do a thing.
I can not state enough how professional their entire team was as well as a joy to work with.

I didn't have a choice in using Butler's Pantry as they are the only caterer that the Piper Palm House allows, that being said I am so happy they were a part of my wedding! They are pricey but you get what you pay for, and I feel that the service was impeccable. Jessica was my sales manager and she was on point! All of the bartenders and kitchen staff were friendly and accommodating, not to mention the food was delicious! If you have the budget and you don't want to have to worry about your caterer, I could not recommend Butler's Pantry more, 10/10.

Butler's Pantry went above and beyond our expectations!
Not only was the food absolutely delicious, it was one of the top items our guests talked about that night and the next day. It was 90 degrees at our outdoor venue and the minute our bridal party arrived after taking photos we were met with at least 2 staff members who kept giving us water. The staff checked in with us multiple times during the evening and even went out of their way to give kids meals to kids that we hadn't signed up for kids meals. They also were very easy to accommodate food allergies for some of our guests. Corespondance with Coleen and Chelsea with our wedding planner was seamless. They responded quickly and professionally. Butler's Pantry was one of the best decisions that we made for our wedding!

There is a reason why Butler’s Pantry is consistently rated the top catering company in St. Louis. There food is absolutely delicious. Several guests told me that their meal at my wedding was one of the best they’d ever eaten or what they would get at a 5-star restaurant. We were able to give our guests the choice of beef, chicken, or vegetarian with delicious sides, and I could barely pick a favorite. Our appetizers were diverse and flavorful. The whole process of working with our coordinator, Nicole, and the chef on the menu was enjoyable. We got to pick and sample all of our favorites for the big day, and even make adjustments where needed. Due to an E. coli outbreak in romaine lettuce days before our event, we were able to seamlessly change our salad option with no muss or fuss. At our reception, there was a plate of the passed hoeur douvres at our place because we barely got a chance to grab them doing all of our mingling! I wish I could eat Butler’s food every day!

Butlers Pantry catered my wedding. The food was absolutely delicious and the team was very professional and courteous. My only issue was that we began working with Jacqueline and then later started working with Paton. It was really frustrating at first bc it didn’t seem like all of the previous decisions/information about my day was passed along, however Paton immediately got to work correcting things from the previous person and communicating with me or my planner every step of the way. Thanks Paton for being a part of my special day! I was so happy to see you when you checked on me at the reception!

We talk about my vision (from Pinterest!!) lol! And, advised what she could and I what I could do to save cost. For a year a collected flowers from various stores (on sale) and vases from the Salvation Army. And, Becky arranged the flowers and offered color choices for paints of the vases. It all came together very beautifully! It was vintage and romantic feel at The Piper Palm House. I would recommend Butler Pantry.

Our Wedding Celebration party was wonderful orchestrated beginning with the detailed planning and design, to the elegant table settings and service in the Sheldon Ballroom. The food was exquisite from the taste hors d'oeuvres to the magnificent beef tenderloin & seabass dinner service. The serving staff were all pros. We have had countless guests tell us how much they enjoyed the evening and that it was the best Wedding Reception they have ever attended. Wow.... Dave and I fell so blessed. We thank you so very much for the ongoing communication and worry-free attention to all the details. The evening was simply magnificent and the service made all the difference.

We recently got married at Palladium Saint Louis and Butler's Pantry catered our big day. We were so impressed with the quality and presentation of the food. So many of our guests told us that it was not only the best wedding food they've ever had, but one of the best meals they've had in general. The food was presented and tasted exactly like it was in our tasting (my husband said it was actually better at the wedding!). Their staff added the perfect element to the evening and were extremely wonderful. Our decor was done by Becky with Butler's Pantry Design Studio and we couldn't have been happier with our choice. Looking back on our day, we wouldn't change a thing. Thank you!

We cannot say enough amazing things about Butler's Pantry, and Coleen, whom we worked with from day one. As a bride, I was on top of every little detail, and was in constant contact with Coleen. She was very responsive to every question, concern, change, and requests I had. Always in a timely matter. Even on her days off, she would communicate with me! She had amazing ideas when I was stuck with planning our reception. Our reception took place in the Missouri History Museum, and it was stunning and magical. The food, oh my goodness, the food. The best catered food I have ever tasted! We been to many many weddings and have never had anything better. Coleen coordinated the most wonderful food tasting. We felt like we were in our own private dining space in an upscale restaurant. The Butler's Pantry headquaters are so cutting edge and handsome. Every request we had for our special day, Coleen delivered. We contributed some personal items to use at the venue, items that were special to us, and Coleen made sure they were put away and saved safely for us after the day ended. The night went so smoothly, every minute was planned and executed. At the end of the night Coleen gave me the biggest hug, and said she had the best time coordinating our night, and thought it was one of her favorite weddings she had done. She had become a friend throughout the process, we had talked so much through it! Every bride needs a team of BFF's on her big day, because that's was makes it special, knowing everything will be flawless, and not having a worry, so you can enjoy your day with your new husband. We couldn't have been happier with Butler's Pantry!

Butler's Pantry catered my daughters wedding last evening. The food was incredible! My daughter decided on food stations (which initially was not my first choice).. Butler's Pantry was extremely accommodating in what they were willing to prepare for us. I have to say that their Tenderloin Sliders on a Pretzel Bun were amazing, as were the Lobster Bisque sippers. It is hard for me to imagine being any more pleased with our caterer selection.

My wedding was almost a year ago and our guests still tell us when they see us how much they enjoyed the food from Butler's Pantry at our wedding. BP was amazing to work with and they were all so professional and accommodating. We invited our parents to the tasting and it was one of the most fun afternoons ever. BP helped us go through all of the choices and options until we were able to narrow it down to our ideal meal. The night of the wedding went so perfectly. The service was great-courteous and efficient, and every bit of the food was prepared to perfection. BP even helped us serve up the wonderful St. Louis themed late night snack, and our guests stayed until the very end because they were full of great food and so happy! I recommend BP to all of my friends and cannot rave about them enough. I also used the BP Design Studio to make all of our arrangements and they were incredible. They really matched the flowers to my theme and the season and they look so beautiful in every photo. Butler's Pantry really helped make our wedding reception so perfect! :)

Kayla worked with us from the very first call I made until the end, a week after our event. We rented oak knoll park which is a Unique, beautiful, interesting venue and they made it easy. They helped us have an outdoor/indoor/outdoor comfortable, fun reception which is exactly what we wanted. They truly take care of you and the details and Kayla was there the night of the event including for clean up.

A Beautiful, private, and unique venue! Each room in the home is unique and has modern updates yet gorgeous original architecture as well. The staircase is amazing! The terrace in the back is huge! We put a tent over the entire thing and had our second bar, band, photo booth, dance floor, and several tables out there. I heard the food was great- I didn't get a chance to see it or eat it being the busy bride. Fan favorite seemed to be the Mac and Cheese bar. Bridget at Butler's Pantry was so open to all the ideas my fiance and I had to make our wedding truly ours. The staff was kind and professional. No question was left unanswered for more than 24 hours which made the planning process go very smoothly. The house is nestled in a gorgeous park which had almost no foot traffic. It truly felt like we had our wedding in our our private estate. So cool! I would highly recommend it! And invite me!! I want to go back!

Butler's Pantry went above and beyond as the caterer for our wedding.
From the beginning, I was impressed by Elisa, our Catering Manager. She was extremely responsive and anticipated our needs before we could even think of them! Elisa kept us right on track with timelines and was flexible when we suggested new ideas to her. She even worked to order donuts from our favorite donut shop for our dessert and helped me connect with a rental company for my decor needs. Whenever I got stuck on a planning question, I just sent a note to Elisa. She would respond immediately with an answer or a suggestion for whom to contact. Then, on the day of our wedding, Elisa and her team worked seamlessly and silently to present our appetizers, dinner, and dessert. I would have forgotten they were there if delicious food didn't keep appearing!
Beyond Elisa, our food from Butler's was a big hit with our guests. People raved about the short rib taco appetizer and the beef tenderloin entree - one of our guests cleaned his plate and the plates of two other guests! I would definitely recommend Butler's if you want great service, expertise, and amazing food.

Butler’s Pantry catered our wedding last fall, and it was absolutely delicious. We went buffet-style, and got tons of compliments on how tasty everything was. The food wasn’t cheap, but it was worth every penny. We loved that our parents and a few members of the wedding party got to sample the cooking at the regular Sunday brunch at Café Madelaine in Tower Grove Park, which BP caters. Marie Corragio, my staff contact, was amazing. She always responded promptly to emails and telephone calls. Her staff was in charge of table setup and teardown for my venue, in addition to food service, and on the big day, everything came off without a hitch!

After working with Butler's Pantry, we would immediately recommend them to anyone looking to hire a caterer for their wedding. From the outset, they were professional, courteous, accommodating, and helpful. They guided us through every step of the planning process and did an amazing job on the day of our wedding. The services they provide are extremely comprehensive and that truly helps to alleviate a lot of the stress that comes along with planning a wedding. We received a TON of compliments on the food and many of our guests said it was the best wedding food they'd ever had. The day-of staff was not only professional, dependable, and attentive, but they remained positive and upbeat even though our wedding was outside in 97 degree heat. Everything from the food tasting to the service during the wedding was top of the line and we were blown away.
Our specific point of contact at Butler's Pantry was Bridget and we certainly couldn't have had the wedding of our dreams if it wasn't for her. She was always there when we needed her and supported our decisions throughout the process. She remained in constant communication with us throughout the planning process and she always provided us with prompt and detailed answers to our questions. Additionally, she was a huge help during our rehearsal in that she was able to keep the bridal party organized while effectively communicating to everyone their role. On top of that, she made sure we had everything we needed and more during the ceremony and reception and quite honestly, she went above and beyond our expectations. Bridget was a total joy to work with and a great reflection of Butler's Pantry as a whole.

I got married in March and used Butler's Pantry for my reception. Let me just say that everything was phenomenal! From the food, to the bar, to the service- everything was perfect across the board. I couldn't have asked for a better caterer for our big day. I am one of the first of my friends to get married, so I will definitely be recommending Butler's Pantry to them all. Thank you for everything!

I worked with Butler's Pantry to plan my June 2015 wedding at the Missouri History Museum and couldn't have asked for a better partner throughout the entire planning process. Liz Beaty, the Sales and Catering Manager, was absolutely amazing, answering my MANY questions in a very timely manner, continuously tweaking our contract to get everything just right, offering great advice on layout/decor/food selection/vendors/etc., and executing all of the day-off setup perfectly. There were absolutely no issues with the reception the day of the wedding, and I really do attribute it to the foresight and organization of the Butler's Pantry staff. I was most nervous about feeding 190 people quickly, even with a buffet, but they set up two double-sided buffet lines and made sure everyone had food as quickly as possible. A couple weeks before the wedding, I realized that I had more people RSVP that they could attend than originally expected. No worries - Butler's Pantry added four additional tables to the overlook balcony, as well as an additional bar to accommodate. Everyone was able to fit and had a lot of fun! Butler's Pantry made the planning process so easy and fun! Last but not least, the food was great! We had some much fun at the tasting and everything turned out very well. We kept getting compliments on the food even a couple weeks after the wedding. I would highly recommend Butler's Pantry to anyone.

Our food, was absolutely flippin awesome. We had so many compliments on it, and I think it was hands-down the best wedding food I have ever had. Liz Beaty, our contact, is AMAZING. She was so helpful, responded to calls and emails immediately, was friendly and personable, and never acted annoyed about my thousands of questions! I wish I could eat this food all the time. It was not the cheapest caterer, but the quality was definitely there, and I liked that the alcohol is included in the food so you don't have to worry about how much people are drinking/the cost on the day-of. The only teensy little problem we had was that we had 2 different kinds of cake and the servers were supposed to ask guests which kind they preferred. Instead, they just randomly passed out the plated pieces. But all in all, it was wonderful, food was great, and Liz Beaty was spectacular!
