Events Catering Company

his team carefully curated our menu based off our requests. Everything from the passed hors d'oeuvres, the stationary antipasto display and homemade crab dip, to our beautiful salads, and our main course including beef tenderloin and crab cakes, it was all DELICIOUS! Our guests have been telling us since that they had the best crab cakes ever at our wedding and it was the best wedding food. Our food was hot, fresh, and beautifully displayed. Brian and his team are extremely professional, efficient, and attentive. I can't say enough good things of the Events Catering Team! I would recommend them to anyone for any type of wedding or event. I've also used Events Catering Company for a work luncheon that included pit beef, turkey, and a variety of homemade sides including potato salad, mac and cheese, and salad. His pricing is extremely reasonable given the quality of food and service they provide. I wish I had more photos to share, but I was too busy eating all of their amazing food... Thank you for everything, Events Catering Company!!

f. The guidance he offered to us from his many years of experience was invaluable. We had a seated dinner for 130+ guests and served filet mignon and grilled salmon as our main courses. Our guests were served promptly and the food was delicious. The highlight for me was the passed hors d'oeuvre's which ranged from crab balls to lamb lollipops. Everything came out hot and there was plenty for everyone. Looking back, I cannot imagine pulling our wedding off without Brian and his team. He not only helped us with the food but, also facilitated our bar service. His staff was attentive and unobtrusive all at once. They are all skilled in customer service and were able to accommodate every obscure request we had (even keeping a canoe stocked with ice and beers throughout the day/night). The value that Events Catering Company brings to the table is unbeatable for what you get. Highly recommend, 10/10, book them ASAP before someone else beats you to it. Thank you for everything, Brian!!

od came from! I will ALWAYS refer events catering to anyone that asks me. I can’t thank them enough for being a part of my special day! ❤️

s and what we wanted was priceless, and most importantly Brian was willing to work with us on every request we made. The presentation was perfect as well, they matched the theme of the wedding perfectly. We couldn’t have asked for anything more, everything really exceeded our expectations. Thank you so much for everything and for making it all possible!

ute changes that we made. All the food was delicious, and I loved the fact that I could use my two sides as a late night snack during the reception. I can't recommend Brian and Events Catering enough. You will not be disappointed!

sive, had answers to all of our questions, and was super helpful with getting all of the linens, plates, glasses, and silverware. We were so happy that we chose Events Catering for our wedding and would highly recommend them to anyone planning their wedding!

aterer and would take care of everything.

that can be however classy or simple of a menu that you want. As for Brian, he has been amazing through this whole process. He went through every possible option and gave his professional opinion based on what we brought up we were wanting which is crucial for someone who has never planned a wedding, because choosing a menu can be super intimidating! He has made me feel very secure and confident through out this whole process and I know that my wedding is going to be amazing thanks to Brian and his staff. I would highly recommend putting your trust into Brian and this company, they are the best of the best and I know they will have my guests talking about his menu and service for a long time!

daughters catering, and would get no response. It went so far as me calling the venue to try and get in touch with him. The only way to get him to respond, was to tell him I wanted a refund. Which then, he told me that he would not refund my money and then threatened to tell the venue I was looking for another place to hold the wedding. Totally unprofessional, and what is supposed to be a very important day for my daughter, he was turning into a back and forth banter. Please do not waste your time or your money with this business. You will be unhappy, and if you disagree with him, he will try to belittle you, to make you think he’s right and you are wrong. If I could show the responses I received from this man, you would be shocked.

cious food provided by their in house catering company, Events Catering. The day of staff was very easy to work with and made sure to get the bridal party to the ceremony and reception on time. The grounds and ceremony sites are also beautiful and will look amazing in your pictures.

o use Brian to make their special day a memorable one. THANK YOU!!

ly delicious – we received many compliments about the menu from our guests! But the best part about working with Brian and Events Catering Company was the service. During our site visit, Brian took the time to get to know both my husband and I – this allowed him to better understand our vision for the reception. He then customized a menu and service package that not only exceeded our expectations but was also well within our budget. On the day of the event, Brian and his staff timely displayed and restocked the buffet, discreetly cleaned tables, and monitored trash bins. Brian’s daughter also bar-tended for our reception – she did an amazing job (especially catering to our college friends’ many requests for shots). I highly recommend Events Catering Company!

for, and was very flexible with payment installments. The week leading up to the wedding he came to our farm and dropped things off, walked through the property and explained how everything would go. He put my mind at ease and the day of the wedding everyone raved about how good the food was. His staff kept everything neat and clean- and even helped set up my chairs for the reception. I was unaware of this until after the wedding was over, but when they were moving chairs from the reception to the barn during the cocktail hour, they were running behind so Bryan and his staff jumped in to help. I couldn't have asked for a better caterer and highly recommend!! Our wedding was 10/20/18 in Darlington, MD

d mom said the staff did an excellent job packing up everything while my husband and I made our sparkler exit. My husband and I both enjoyed that everything was included with Geneva Farms. It made wedding planning much easier with everything included. The bakery, food, DJ and staff were all wonderful! I highly recommend Geneva Farms! BONUS: There is a silo with spiral stairs that produces some beautiful wedding photos.

's best food. We had a hard time getting the guests seated for dinner because everyone was huddled around the crab dip we had for an appetizer, everyone would have been happy if that was the only food we served it was so good. Not only was the food great, but his staff was amazing. Our wedding was very DIY, but his team didn't hesitate to pitch in and help us carry our desserts in and get everything set up, they really went the extra mile during the entire wedding, from set up, through dinner, and packing up. PRior to the big day, Brian made planning a breeze, he was super responsive, never pushy, but offered great suggestions when we didn't have a clue on how to plan this thing. Our venue had some very strict rules about setting up, when vendors could arrive, they were not the easiest to deal with but Brian was great communicating with them, we had to schedule a walkthrough at the venue with short notice (less than 24 hours), but he more than happy to meet us there so he could plan the table setup with us. I can't recommend his team enough.

ing but he always did get back to us. I would highly recommend them!

fair with pit beef, pulled pork, turkey, potato salad, and mixed veggies. Everything was a hit! While Brian was our main point of contact and great to work with, we would be remiss if we didn’t also applaud his staff that worked the event that day. They were incredibly accommodating and very pleasant as they went about serving our guests. Even with small things like holding the doors open while the wedding party was being introduced, it was clear that they were there to help make the day successful rather than just do their job and go home. For the prospective brides- and grooms-to- be reading this, you can be confident that while your guests are being well tended, you, too, will be receiving the royal treatment. One of the greatest concerns and regrets you hear from couples is that they never got to eat the food and drinks that they just spent months meticulously arranging. Thanks to the catering staff, that was not an issue for us. A dedicated staff member ensured that we had appetizers set aside for us and the wedding party and that we always had a drink in hand if we wanted it (For your HIMYM stalwarts, think Linus and the Kennedy package). Regardless of the event you’re planning, Events Catering has our unreserved endorsement. If you are simply having a backyard party, you can expect the food to be spot-on and Brian to be pleasant to work with. If you are having a full-blown wedding bonanza with multiple vendors and countless moving pieces, you can expect the above along with a caterer committed to making the event a success, from the first days of planning right up to the last dance. *Caprese Shooters – Brought to you by the tried-and-and true caprese on a toothpick, the caprese shooter brings some new flare to a classic oldie. Skewered on a pipette filled with balsamic vinegar, the mozz and tomato slide into your mouth just as you squirt the balsamic into the mix for a coalescence of flavor unrivaled by more conventional methods of ingestion.

first rodeo and he did not hesitate to share insight gained from his many years of being in the business. Importantly, he approached our first meeting as a consultation rather than a sales pitch. Confident in the product he offered, he walked us through the various options that were available, constantly reiterating that there was always the choice of choosing from off the book if we had something else in mind. I suspect this occurs with most couples planning their wedding, but as the discussion progressed, Brian laid out the long list of different considerations that go into hosting a successful event and we watched as our hypothetical budget grabbed its hat and started walking out the door. Thankfully, Brian was able to point out what items are critical and which ones are just nice to have. This let us move forward with confidence that we would have what we needed on the day of our wedding and to pick and choose the things we personally viewed as important from that “nice to have” list. He was ready and willing to work with the budget we had in mind, which went a long way in setting us at ease even as we were engaging numerous other vendors and getting ready to put our checkbook through an Olympic-caliber training regimen. Before we signed on the dotted line, we were given an opportunity to visit Brian at his kitchen to review a combination of dishes that he recommended along with a couple that we requested. He prepared enough of each dish to give us a very good sense of what we could expect on the day of the event. During our first meeting, Brian assured us that the food he made was top notch and, when we left the kitchen that day, we were not disappointed. Once the contract was signed and the menu was agreed upon in principle, Brian remained responsive and was proactive about engaging our other vendors to ensure that they were operating on a coordinated front on the day of the wedding. We were fortunate enough to work with a number of great vendors but Brian stood out for his willingness to take the lead and ensure that the points in which his service was handing off to another vendor were seamless. When you are planning a wedding from scratch with a multitude of moving pieces, this is an invaluable attribute to have in your caterer.

eating crackers and crab dip while serving my guest and eating over the food. Complained to Mr Pieper the owner and he has dimissal me for over 2 months since the wedding. Big embarrassment and made the wrong choice. I learned you get what you pay for!

oing person in general and very flexible. The food was delicious and the price, you couldn't beat for all that you were getting. It almost seemed a little too good to be true...here's the catch. Ron Piper was absolutely the nicest most accommodating man AT OUR FIRST MEETING. Once you signed that contract it all went downhill. He showed his true colors which were RUDE, unorganized, and downright nasty. I have never met anyone who treats their clients who are paying thousands of dollars for a service in the way they he did. On multiple occasions he has snapped at my parents and myself and has made me cry (the bride) on many occasions including the day before my wedding! The way he talks to people is absolutely inappropriate. On multiple occasions he scheduled meetings with us and when we would be waiting for him his response to seeing us would be "Who are you and what do you want?" (when he was the one who asked us to come in the first place!) . No "hello" or friendly greeting ever. The night before my wedding he heard me make the statement that I wish I never had my wedding there and that I could change it because he was yelling at my family. Rather than apologize or ask what was wrong he proceeded to tell my parents how rude it was that I said that. I am not one to take the time to write reviews but this really bothered me and I simply don't want other brides to be blindsided like I was! And this was not a fluke thing either, I talked to many brides (after the wedding unfortunately) who has their weddings there, up to 20 years ago and said he has always been as rude and nasty as he is now. For this reason and this reason only I would NEVER recommend Harford Caterers to anyone who is getting married, it's not worth the stress!

and service was top notch and I had quite a few guests raving about "the awesome crab balls" for weeks after. I highly recommend choosing them for your big day, you will not be disappointed.

ighly recommend their business and will be certain to work with them again in the future!
