Gourmet Galley Catering

food at a very reasonable price.

d cannot recommend Gina, Denise, and the whole team highly enough. Gina met with us a few times throughout the process, from contracting where we talked through potential options and possibilities, our group tasting (which still make me drool when I think about it), setting our menu and starting to lay out our day, and then final meetings to discuss details and confirm everything. Each time she was the consummate professional, organized and prepared, and ready with innovative and creative ideas and suggestions to help make our day truly ‘ours.’ This doesn’t even begin to touch on the countless emails we exchanged, and she was nothing but patient with our questions and concerns. I also want to commend her for pushing back on ideas I had that were, quite frankly, not good – she was kind and polite but her expertise shown through as she explained her recommendations and guided us towards a better option. She helped us design a schedule and flow that would work for us and our guests and arranged the details of the day to create our vision and a great guest experience. And then she handed us off to Denise for our rehearsal and day-of organization… I want Denise to run every aspect of my life. It’s that simple – she was beyond incredible. She was as buttoned up as they come, ready with answers before I could ask questions, and despite being at weddings almost every weekend, was genuinely excited for us and our day. Our bridal party and parents even noticed how much she loves her job – and just how good at is she is. She held our hands through the rehearsal, dealt with day-of delays and hiccups like they were nothing, and met us after the ceremony with drinks and apps in hand and a smile on her face. She ran the day and managed our vendors and details to create the most amazing day and experience, and we couldn’t be more grateful to have had her there with us. That doesn’t even touch on the food. Everything we had was great. Everything out guests had was great. Salmon was perfectly cooked, short ribs fell off the bones, and apps were talked about for days. The signature drinks were unique and delicious, and the staff was quick, courteous, and very much on their game. We have no regrets except that we couldn’t order 3 of each main course each!

sant and accommodating. i highly recommend gourmet galley!

ey truly blew me away. They have an expansive menu and you can tell the chef takes such pride in the food. We got so many amazing compliments on the food from the wedding after and the staff was so friendly! Highly recommend using them as our wedding caterer! And check out their store with really fun home meals that taste so amazing!

o worry about anything, everything was taken care of. The food was amazing - thank you chefs!

ience. The food was fabulous and we were happy with all the service on that day.

e were in great hands and special thanks to Tanya and Kyle for making that happen! Great team!

caterers we reached out to. We were so happy to be working with them from the very beginning! Then covid hit... Gina was nothing but comforting and amazing to work with while navigating these difficult times. After postponing, and changing our venue, we always felt comfortable knowing our day would eventually be perfect while working with them. Fast forward to the day of the wedding, and wow, our expectations were far exceeded from the food, professionalism of the staff and quick service! Our guests had nothing by raving reviews and we are still getting calls a week later complimenting the evening and how it was the best wedding food they'd ever had. THANK YOU again Gina & team, we couldn't have planned this wedding without you!

& it all came out hot!! We couldn’t be happier with how everything looked, tasted, & the staff was amazing!! Seriously such a great job!!

imagined! My husband and I could not be more thankful for all of the long phone calls, the constant emails and the pure determination from Marissa to make this day one we will never forget and the whole team knocked it out of the park from the food(which is absolutely PHENOMENAL) to the decor to the attendants and wait staff. I will never be able to thank them enough! RUN don't walk to book them for your wedding or event. You will not regret it!

reply to us after reaching out for more information. We read many reviews on how amazing the food was....I am so happy to be able to add another one of those reviews. The food was incredible. Our guests were amazed. Multiple times we heard best food at a wedding they ever had. Filet can be a hard order to fill for large events and everyone's was a perfect medium rare. The salmon was like butter and the butternut squash ravioli tasted like Fall. We even got compliments on the jasmine rice served with the salmon! We didn't hire a wedding planner but our event coordinator Jen handled a lot of those details for us. From the very beginning we had amazing service. We scheduled multiple tastings to get our menu just right and the day of went so smoothly. It all came together better than I could have ever imagined. Jen was there to ease our minds and handle all our concerns with planning a wedding during COVID. It sure was stressful but because of Jen's attention to detail and professionalism it could not have gone better. The catering staff who worked our wedding went above and beyond to make sure the day was perfect and attend to everyone in a timely manner. We are so grateful for everyone dedication to the best day of our lives! Choose Gourmet Galley Catering, you will not be disappointed!

t was postponed to 8/21. Danielle made every step of the way as stress free as possible for us. She was SO helpful and kind the entire way. She made sure that every detail on our wedding day was absolutely perfect—and she truly made our wedding day that much more magical. The Gourmet Galley staff were all so kind and tentative to our guests while still being mindful to maintain social distancing. And the food...THE BEST! We are so thankful to have chosen The Meadows and Gourmet Galley for our wedding. But seriously if you can request Danielle as your wedding coordinator, DO IT! You will not regret it! :)

ing seamless even despite COVID. Everyone is still raving about the delicious food options we had, highly suggest the honey thyme chicken YUM!! All the staff was so helpful and easy to work with, I will forever recommend gourmet galley, but am sad that my wedding is over and I won’t be conversing with Danielle anymore :(

nforeseen weather, the logistics were very challenging and had changed at the last minute. Their team was amazing at navigating the changes. The food was truly gourmet. I have never received so many compliments for food....“the best appetizers I’ve ever had”!

xceptionally easy, and the service on our wedding day was flawless. Thank you for making our wedding so perfect!!

They thought of every detail and made the whole experience stress free. The pricing was very reasonable and staff was professional and a pleasure to work with! Will absolutely use them again in the future!!

Guilford Yacht club was beautifully decorated as I had requested and Kyle made sure I had no worries only fun on our wedding day. It was the best day ever!

k with the cake because my husband told the staff I need milk with my sweets! The food was perfection; everyone is still talking about it! From the mini lobster rolls to the raw bar to the filet mignon. Perfection.

d your needs so that she is always thinking 5 steps ahead of you in what needs to be done to execute the perfect event exactly how you envision it. We cannot wait to come up with another event to work with them again in the future.

rior to current global events, Marissa exceeded our expectations by taking the time to listen to all of our ideas and fun touches for a brunch wedding and making our vision and dreams a reality. My fiancé, myself, and our families were so very impressed by the food and service at our tasting and the other events we have attended by GG catering. We knew Gourmet Galley was extraordinary prior to the current events of the world but this has really put it all into perspective and we are forever grateful for the unwavering support of Marissa and Gourmet Galley during these times. Marissa has kept us very well informed and eased all of our worries as we all navigate scenarios that have never really been something we had to think about before. Cheers to all the brighter days ahead and the exquisite meals we can't wait for from Gourmet Galley Catering!

entals and be flexible with my boho ideas and plan. Marissa, from Gourmet Galley, was awesome from start to finish. She was totally supportive of my vision, had great advice and was flexible to help us stay within our budget. And of course, the best part, the food was incredible and so many people from our wedding have gone out of their way to say so! It was everything we wanted: local, seasonal and inspired by our lives. The day of, our team was amazing, Nancy and Leigh-Ann were outstanding and made us feel so well taken care of and supported. They truly went above and beyond and we could not have imagined our day without them!

absolutely true - Jen worked with us from day one to not only plan our menu, but also manage all of our rentals (with two other vendors), create our wedding day timeline, design our floor plan, and generally ensure every detail was perfect. She is extremely responsive and was more than happy to work through numerous changes to rentals, floor plan, etc. All of our guests said the food at our wedding was delicious, above and beyond standard wedding food, and the service was fantastic! No one had to wait in line for drinks at the bars and there was plenty of passed apps during the cocktail hour so there wasn't any swarming the wait staff as they entered with food - two things my husband and I really cared about. GG also provides a "couples' attendant", a server dedicated exclusively to the bride and groom, which we really appreciated. Most importantly, the entire day went seamlessly (seriously!), which was largely because of Jen and her team. GG is truly one of the best in the area!

ning process. Met with us at the venue to go over all of the details several weeks prior. They had a really great program in which they designed the layout and table seating to make everything seamless which also included a rain plan in the event our ceremony had to be under the tent at the Geer Tree farm. The staff really took care of us that day as they were very attentive to my husband and I as well as overseeing all of the smaller details. The food was amazing as our guest were raving about their dinner!

o meet several dietary restrictions and worked with us to generate a menu that was just right. We received so many compliments from our guests about how great the food and staff were. As someone who has worked in catering, I understand how difficult it is to please everyone. However, the team at Gourmet Galley managed to accomplish this and more.
