Choosing Harvest Catering for our January wedding was a no brainer. Prior to selecting a food vendor, we had heard nothing but wonderful things about Harvest and trusted those people who had recommended them to us.
The team there is incredibly professional and helpful. There is so much that goes on behind the scenes on wedding day, and I wasn't at all concerned with Harvest's ability to implement exactly what we wanted. Their team patiently answered questions for us, tweaked quote after quote without hesitation, and ultimately helped us land on food that our wedding guests loved. Serving well loved food was high on our priority list and Harvest delivered and exceeded every expectation we had. 10/10 recommend.

It was such an honor to be trusted with your day, Karissa!
Harvest Catering was a great choice for our wedding’s welcome party! Everything was delivered quickly and with no issues! Food was great! We had several people rave about their arugula salad! They were easy to work with and so kind!
Thank you! :-)

We loved working with you, Maria!
Any questions?
Harvest was wonderful to work with. I hosted a corporate dinner at my home for 20 and the crew at Harvest created a custom menu for the event. The ease of having someone else cook a delicious meal freed me up to be engaged with my guest.

Harvest catered an event for our Wine Club. The food was delicious and presented beautifully. Could not have been happier. Highly recommend them

Thank you so much for trusting us with you event, Kathie!
Short version: Harvest Catering was amazing. The food was delicious, they were excellent communicators, priced fairly for the high quality, and overall were really nice people to work with. I would highly recommend.
Longer version: We were hosting a small wedding (30ish people) and originally planned to have dinner at a restaurant in the small town where our ceremony was taking place. 10 days before the date, the restaurant fell through, and we needed to pivot FAST! We are so grateful that Brittany from Harvest Catering responded to our call for help. Despite little time before the event, the team was able to prepare a delicious meal for our family. Brittany communicated clearly, was extremely positive and helpful, and made great recommendations. They were able to drop the catering off at the venue ahead of time, and the food was delicious! It was the cherry on top of a really beautiful day. Thank you Brittany, Myles, and the Harvest Catering team for making our big day so special.

We are so thankful you trusted us with your special day!
Harvest Catering was the BEST company to work with!! Great menu selection, great communication, great service at the wedding & the food was AMAZING! We had so many compliments of how amazing the food was. The appetizers were a huge hit at cocktail hour. Our guests & coordinators were so amazed that they were able to get 220 people through the buffet line in a very timely manner! I would highly recommend Harvest Catering to anybody looking for a great catering service. We are so grateful that we had them with us on our big day!

Thank you so much, Morgan! We loved being a part of such a special day!
Our theatre troupe recently had the pleasure of being catered by Harvest Catering, and we couldn’t be more thrilled with the experience. From start to finish, everything was top-notch.
Harvest Catering exceeded our expectations in every way possible. If you’re looking for delectable food and outstanding service for your event, look no further than Harvest Catering.

Thank you so much! It was such an honor serving your school!
Harvest Catering exceeded our expectations for our daughter's wedding. The food was fresh and fun and delicious. We were absolutely delighted to find the chef was actually cooking some of the food onsight on an outdoor grill! They were so helpful while planning the menu. They responded quickly and precisely to all our questions and were highly adaptable to our requests. I highly recommend them!
Response from the Vendor on 03/24/2024
Thank you for trusting us with your daughter's special day, Catherine!
We catered Harvest for our rehearsal dinner and it was amazing! We had brunch for dinner, complete with cinnamon rolls, sausage fruit, and more. My husbands parents went to pick up the food and bring it back to the venue. They said that as soon as they arrived everything was packed up and ready to go! It was so easy. Harvest was also an amazing communicator. I felt at ease when planning and coordinating with them. I recommend Harvest for any event!! You are sure to be at ease when booking them!
Response from the Vendor on 11/29/2023
Such a fun brunch menu! Thank you for trusting us with your day, Sofie.
I have had numerous catering experiences with Harvest and have complete confidence in their abilities to deliver! Super easy to work with — including going out of their way to make an event fun and creative. They recently catered a 70’s theme reception and really took on the challenge to make it unique and memorable. Excellent food and presentation. Very willing to work with you on the smallest detail!
Response from the Vendor on 10/31/2023
It was such a fun event, Tracy! Thank you for trusting our team with your vision.
Julia, Miles, and the whole Harvest catering team were absolutely fantastic. As big supporters of local food, we knew we wanted to incorporate local farmers and their products into our wedding menu. Julia and Miles worked with us on creating a custom menu that featured local beef and produce for a very reasonable price. But most importantly, the food was absolutely delicious. We had (and continue to have!) rave reviews from so many of our guests - from the custom biscuit bar to the short ribs and Mac and cheese, every single menu item was just perfect. Finally, the Harvest team were so friendly and professional on our wedding day. Don’t hesitate to hire them for your big day or any event!
Response from the Vendor on 10/31/2023
Thank you so much for trusting us with your big day, Constance!
Absolute professionals! Communication was always clear and Julia responded quickly & courteously to every question I had. The night of our event, the Harvest Team was on time and ready to go just as we had agreed. I don't know what you will want on your menu, but I HIGHLY recommend the mac 'n cheese! We were so happy with the outcome at our dinner. Guests enjoyed themselves, and Harvest delivered everything promised. They exceeded my expectations & I would definitely hire them again!
Response from the Vendor on 10/31/2023
You can never go wrong with the mac 'n cheese! Thanks so much, Anita!
My wedding in Jefferson GA was June 3 and Harvest was AWESOME. Most weddings have typical food no one really talks about when they go home. My guests are still talking about the food 1 month later. The flavors were popping and I know one guest put cornbread muffins in her purse to take home. LOL! We had buffet BBQ with several sides for vegans and non-vegans. Julie was super helpful and the level of professionalism was incredibly appreciated.
Response from the Vendor on 09/05/2023
Cornbread in the purse is a sure sign of a happy quest! We loved celebrating with you, Megan!
Highly recommend Harvest Catering! Julia is extremely easy to work with. The food is delicious and very reasonably priced. Incredibly professional, kind and friendly staff. If I could give 10 stars on this review I would!!! Again, I highly recommend Harvest Catering!
Response from the Vendor on 06/07/2023

We are so thankful you trusted us with your big day, Jamee!
Harvest Catering is a TOP NOTCH catering service. They served close to 700 people in 20 minutes. They were professional, they were able to make last minute tweaks, able to make suggestions to stay within my budget and the food was phenomenal! Others now want "my caterer". Love them and already have them lined up for next years event.
Response from the Vendor on 05/30/2023
It was such a honor to be a part of your event! Thank you so much for us, Lynn!
They were very kind, seemed genuinely excited for our wedding, and were very intentional with communication so everything was stress free! Food was great! We went with the brunch option, and all of our guests were very happy. We got so many compliments!
Response from the Vendor on 05/30/2023
You can never go wrong with the brunch menu. Thank you for trusting us with your big day, Emmaline!
I used Harvest to cater a wedding shower - the food was fantastic, but these ladies were incredibly helpful and easy to work with on every detail. They were on time, did everything they said they would do and set up everything up including transferring some food items to my trays and dishes. I will use them again in a heartbeat.
Response from the Vendor on 03/03/2023
We couldn't do what we do without our amazing team! Thanks for the review, Toni!
We used Harvest Catering for an upscale corporate event at the Atlanta Botanical Gardens in Gainesville. Harvest was one of their recommended caterers and we were not disappointed. Julia truly listened to our vision for the evening. We certainly appreciated her attention to detail. Even though they did not have the specific serving selections we desired, she helped us search rental resources to secure just the right items to display our menu offerings. The food was delicious and enjoyed by our guests. Julia and her team did a fantastic job from beginning to end.
Response from the Vendor on 03/03/2023
Thank you for trusting us with your event!
Harvest Catering had quality side dishes for the pig roast at our wedding! They were very accommodating, easy to communicate, organized, and professional. They provided us with options of sides/food menu and could also cater towards specific recipes we found online! (We wanted a vegetarian options for guests and went with a pasta recipe that wasn’t on their menu!)
Response from the Vendor on 01/31/2023
Thank you so much for the review, Michaela! We loved being a part of your big day.
We hired Harvest Kitchen to cater the after rehearsal dinner for our son’s wedding. We were extremely pleased. The food was wonderful and the service was very professional. Julia was very helpful to us throughout the planning process. We would certainly use Harvest for any future event, and we highly recommend them.
Response from the Vendor on 01/13/2023
We had so much fun planning the rehearsal dinner with you, John! We can't wait to be a part of future events.
I hired Harvest Kitchen for my rehearsal dinner. They were so accommodating and so helpful. They made sure to keep everything in budget and will even customize packages for you. They were so nice and responsive. I even changed my mind a couple of times and they updated everything with no problem. We went with the taco bar and charcuterie and everything was so good! There are so many options which makes it fun to personalize for your event. Highly recommend!!
Response from the Vendor on 01/13/2023
You can never go wrong with the taco bar! It was such a blast creating your menu, Katie.
We had Harvest Kitchen cater our wedding in Blairsville, GA in May. They were super flexible with us on our menu options and helped us come up with a menu that we liked that also had options to accommodate gluten free and vegan guests. The food was AMAZING!!!! Our venue was 2 hours away from their kitchen, but everything tasted fresh and they were able to prepare some of it on site. I can’t recommend their “Really Good Chicken” and Pecan crusted salmon enough!! I am so thrilled with their service and good quality and am so happy we found them for our perfect day :)

We worked with Harvest Kitchen Catering for hors d'oeuvres at our Wedding on March 20th, 2022. Julia was amazing to communicate with! I had a distinct vision for my Sunday afternoon garden themed affair and my guests raved about the tea sandwiches, bacon wrapped dates, crudité and charcuterie displays! Thank you guys for a great wedding day!
Response from the Vendor on 04/12/2022
It was such a beautiful garden celebration, Margaret!
Harvest kitchen did an incredible job with our wedding! From our passed appetizers featuring mini lobster pot pies to our amazing caprese salad, roast pork- and everything in between, was amazing! They also provided a great tasting, bar tenders to pour our beer, wine and cocktails, and excellent customer service! Chef and Julia are the perfect pair and I look forward to using them again for other special occasions!
Response from the Vendor on 04/12/2022
We can't wait for future occasions with you, Daphaney!
We took a group of adults with disabilities there for our Holiday Celebration and it couldn't have been more perfect. They catered for our food allergies and rearranged the restaurant so it would accommodate our wheelchairs. Everyone loved the food and service. They couldn't have made us feel more welcomed.
Response from the Vendor on 04/12/2022
We had a blast working with you for your event, Connie!
Julia and the team did a great job for our wedding! The food was a hit, so many guests told us how good the sweet potatoes were. The servers stayed late for us and made sure that everything was clean and tidy for our guests.
Definitely recommend Harvest Kitchen for your next event or even a dinner if your in the area!

We look forward to more celebrations with you, Angela!
Working with Julia and her team was a real pleasure. They were very prompt and did a great job setting up. I myself and the guests state that the presentation and the food was FANTASTIC!!.
I will definitely be back in touch for Daughter # 2 wedding when the time arrives as well as any other future catering needs. If you hire Harvest Kitchen you will not be disappointed. Thanks again Harvest Kitchen!

We can’t wait to keep celebrating your family, Chris!
Harvest Kitchen was such a great addition to our wedding! Their roasted potatoes and green beans were delicious. The overall taste of the chicken in parmesan cream was wonderful, but the chicken was a little tough. Their set up was neat and presentable. They did a great job keeping in contact and answering any questions. Their overall price and customer satisfaction is a 10/10!
Response from the Vendor on 07/10/2021
We loved being a part of your big day, Mary! We’ll pass your feedback along to the chef!
Harvest is exactly what North Georgia needed. Great food and great people make for a great caterer. As venue owners a lot of our couples use harvest as their cater (they’re one of our preferred caterers), it’s one thing to find great food, but the awesome experience is what really takes them to the top! You can’t go wrong with using Harvest!
Response from the Vendor on 06/03/2021
We absolutely love working with your venue and staff, Karson! It’s always a great experience for us as caterers!
Would highly recommend! The Harvest team was so nice and accommodating through the entire process! My husband and I had to reschedule our wedding several times due to Covid and Harvest was so easy to work with. We really felt taken care of and like they had our best interests at heart! The food was delicious! Would recommend a dessert table for your guests - the key lime pie was our favorite!
Response from the Vendor on 04/29/2021
We had such a fun time celebrating your big day! Your dessert table was a blast to put together!
We had harvest catering for our elopement. The food was incredible!!
The staff worked with me on the menu, they worked with us on dietary needs and they delivered the meal right to our Airbnb.
Over all worth every penny.

Thank you for choosing us to be a part of your big day, Stephen!
My husband and I chose Harvest Catering for our wedding, and no exaggeration they were the best fajitas I ever had. Almost everyone we talked to after the wedding brought up their food and how good it was.
They were super helpful with working with our budget. Set up, tear down, and service were very warm and professional!
Response from the Vendor on 03/01/2021
We had so much fun catering your gorgeous vineyard wedding, Tara!
Seriously, Harvest Catering was the best vendor we hired for our wedding! They worked with in our budget and provided amazing food. They also provided special options for my and my husbands private meal after the ceremony & it was delicious!
Everyone on this staff is kind, patient and so fun to work with. I recommend Harvest to every newly engaged couple!
Response from the Vendor on 02/24/2021
Your taco bar was a hit, Schuylar! We loved working with you and your husband!
Harvest Kitchen is fantastic! They catered our wedding Oct. 10, 2020 and did an awesome job. We live in Texas, found them on-line, so we were nervous about hiring "site unseen" but wow we were pleasantly surprised!! The food was great and all of our guests loved it. Julia Still was so fun to work with. She knows what she is doing and has such great personality. She was on time and took care of everything. Thank you Julia!
Response from the Vendor on 02/20/2021
We’re so glad you trusted us with your big day, Alena! We loved working with you!
Harvest is incredible. For the big day you want vendors who aren’t easily stressed and can deliver better service then you expected. Harvest does just that. Plus the food is INCREDIBLE! We are still hearing stories (over a year later) from our guests about the Tiramisu from Harvest.
(Which is funny because we were so busy at our wedding we totally did get to have any. But evidently it was AMAZING)
Tacos are our favorite meal. Plus it is easy for guests and who doesn’t love tacos.
Harvest nailed it with chicken and steak tacos. Complete with a Nacho bar and some very hot sauces!
Myles and Julia were extremely responsive, welcoming, and knowledgeable. They made everything easy.
11/10 would recommend

Harvest catered my wedding and I was beyond pleased with their service and quality of food. They were professional and prompt day of & communication leading up to the wedding was easy. They were affordable without sacrificing quality, and the food (chips, guac, salsa, queso for cocktail hour & pulled pork, mac-n-cheese, rolls, and potatoes for dinner) was delicious!
