Adam and Liz exceeded all expectations for our catering- we couldn’t have been more thrilled with their entire team! From the moment we started working with them, Adam and Liz demo...

nstrated both a strong command of the job to be done with the right amount of flexibility to personalize it for what we were looking for. We had a logistically complex wedding - 180 people at an outdoor, at-home venue. Their team never flinched at the task. They were our partners from the start - brainstorming alongside us to create the best guest experience. And they delivered (cooking out back behind the house, serving food on a beach, and navigating unique venue dynamics). The food was delicious (guests have repeatedly told us it the best wedding food!) and the run of show was seamless. They even navigated a crazy thunderstorm - never once allowing it to impact the party. Our wedding was absolutely perfect and I give By Hand the credit. We would recommend Adam and Liz 10/10!!

Our guests just can’t stop talking about the food created by By Hand Catering. Adam and Liz are phenomenal to work with, offering the opportunity to work with you to create a menu ...

and event that fits your style. We had a backyard wedding with 150+ people that required an endless-cocktail style reception and the use of unique spaces for our bars. Adam adapted to all of it and we would not have had the event we had without the teamwork between him, his colleague Liz, and Rita from Rita Ellis Events. Most importantly, Adam and Liz worked with their chef to help recreate Chilean empanadas that are so important to my husband’s side of the family. Those empanadas were AMAZING and were the main hit amongst all of our guests. If you want excellent food and need excellent logistical support for a complex event, look no further than By Hand.
