We Take The Stress Off Your Plate
Catered Roots was the perfect catering company for my wedding! Weddings are notorious for overcooked cold food, but Catered Roots was a highlight of the night! Guests, especially my father (who is very particular about his steak!), raved about the food and cleaned their plates.
Amy was also extremely helpful and flexible during the planning process. A week before the wedding I found out the bar wouldn't be providing the champagne glasses and Amy added them to our package with no extra charge! She was also able to add an extra last minute guest.
We highly recommend considering Catered Roots for your big day!

We had the pleasure of having Catered Roots cater our wedding and we can’t recommend them enough! Their delicious food and outstanding service led to many compliments from our guests. After the fun taste test, the booking process was extremely simple and smooth! From the cocktail hour hors d’oeuvre, to the crowd-favorite mac & cheese, to the phenomenal chicken & flank steak entrees, we were extremely satisfied with everything Catered Roots did for us! Highly recommend!

As hosts of our daughter and son-in-law’s wedding our goal was to create a beautiful and memorable occasion for them and their guests. One of the most important vendors is the cate...
rer, who will feed the wedding party and all the family and friends who have taken the time and traveled to celebrate this special occasion. We searched through several catering companies, and ultimately chose one that we had discovered at an open house at our venue, the French Farmhouse, because of their creativity, flexible meal plans and value. Amy, Amanda and Andre of Catered Roots stood out with their unique and delicious dishes that they served. We followed up with a tasting. We were so impressed with their beautiful presentation as well as the delicious meal plan that they created from our choices. When the wedding day arrived they were prompt and their menu did not disappoint! The Mediterranean Vine Buffet-style meal plan we chose was delicious. Additionally the hors d’oeuvres, late night snack, and sides were wonderful. They also provided vegan meals to a few of our guests as requested. Everyone was well fed and happy throughout the evening. Catered roots is a wonderful company to work with! They provide flexibility for clients to create the perfect and delicious meal plan for any event.

ts team was responsive to our questions in the months leading up to the wedding. On wedding day, their staff was top-notch. The service staff and bartenders were friendly and so very helpful. The food was exceptional. We had so many compliments from our guests about the food and the common theme was that this wasn't your 'typical wedding food'. Catered Roots was also very accommodating to our guests with dietary restrictions and allergies. Catered Roots is an exceptional vendor and I highly recommend them!

get from any other caterer! They were always quick to respond, kind, and so helpful! Second, the food. Just wow! I have never been so impressed by wedding food! Delicious, fresh, and left our guests wanting more! We received so many compliments. I absolutely love that they send the bride and groom home with a to-go box so we could enjoy our wedding dinner all over again the next day, and it was just as tasty! Catered Roots truly cares about you, not just the food. We are SO glad Catered Roots was apart of our special day and hope to work with them again soon!

reception, which we really really appreciated. Everyone RAVED about our brunch buffet, which was delicious. They were so accommodating, patient, and are very reasonably priced. Their beaded chargers for rent are really pretty too! We were sold on them at our tasting... They made us feel welcomed and appreciated, and they didn't try to "sell" us, but they did really impress us with the scale of the tasting. Thank you, Amy, for all of your help to make our day so special!!!
