We could not have asked for a more perfect wedding - it was seriously a dream come true & that is all thanks to Calla Catering!
My husband & I both loved to eat delicious, well made food, & we wanted that to be a huge factor in our wedding day.... It was no question that we had to have Calla Catering for this reason! We love that they focus on fresh & seasonal, & our menu absolutely reflected that! Guests could not stop raving about the entire menu the whole night!
Before our Ceremony, Calla Catering made an incredible hot mulled apple cider (our guests loved it since it was a bit chilly, & we had an outdoor ceremony!). Cocktail Hour, we had a plentiful charcuterie display & hand passed appetizers: Buffalo Chicken Wontons (a MUST HAVE!), Seared Beef Tenderloin Crostini, Three Cheese & Walnut Stuffed Mushrooms (incredible!!!), Arancini, & Sweet & Sour Fried Cauliflower (crowd favorite!). When guests came in for dinner, we started with bread & the Roasted Butternut Squash Salad. It was almost too pretty to eat & it tasted amazing, too! We offered our guests Slow Braised Short Ribs (it was SO delicious & definitely a comfort food!), Roasted Salmon with a Maple Apple Cider Glaze (yum!), & Vegan Stuffed Peppers, all served with mashed potatoes & a root vegetable medley. I swear, every single plate was cleared! We had so many guests complimenting the food & they all mentioned how impressed they were that the food came out HOT on the plate!
With everything that was going on that day - pictures, visiting with family and friends, soaking in the day - I loved that the team made sure we ate. We had a platter of our appetizers brought to us during formal photos & during dinner, the team constantly checked in on us to make sure we were enjoying ourselves & even boxed up the rest of my meal for me to enjoy when I got back to my hotel! They also made sure to box up some of our desserts for us, too!
Outside of the food, Calla Catering played a huge part in our day! They helped us coordinate our rental items, came to a site visit at our venue since they had never been there before (our venue had a lot of rules & documents they required from the caterer in order to work there - NO PROBLEM, Calla helped guide us & made sure everything was submitted!). They arrived the day of, set up everything exactly how I had envisioned it, & they really made sure that I didn’t have to worry about a thing! Even my vendors raved about the dinner they enjoyed from Calla Catering! They all mentioned how much they loved working with the team!
During the night, I kept looking around seeing how full guests waters were, how clean the tables looked, how the staff just never stopped moving! I really felt like my goal was accomplished: to make our friends and family feel TREATED!
At the end of the night, they stayed at the venue after my husband & I left and cleaned up everything! After being up since 7am to get hair & make up done, it was such a relief to know that they were tying up all of the loose ends & making sure that everything at the venue was squared away! That was such a huge help & relief off of my shoulders!
Calla Catering made a HUGE impact on our wedding! We are so, so glad we had them be a part of our day! I know we will never forget how special it was because of their hard work & delicious food. If you want to have your wedding be a stand-out event, there is no contest - Calla Catering has to be there!
