Chef Jessica and her team did an outstanding job with catering our wedding. She was incredibly easy going and super responsive, and with her depth of experience she helped us effortlessly plan a full menu of appetizers, a family-style dinner, and an amazing dessert table (the utmost compliments to her sister who is also her pastry chef!). Jessica is a seriously talented chef and we had no shortage of guests remarking on how good the food was! Her and her team prepared an incredible spread for the appetizer and desserts tables and they provided amazing dinner service for around 100 guests on the day. Let’s be honest - what your guests care about is the food and we highly recommend Humble Bumble Catering to make your event delicious and unforgettable!

Chef Jessica was absolutely wonderful to work with! We really appreciated her communication and transparency. She was so helpful throughout the entire process, helping us curate our dinner menu and really helped us think through the logistics of set up (we were so thankful to hire her team of staff to help get all our tables set up for the day, and it looked absolutely perfect)! She also created beautiful grazing tables that we used during our cocktail hour, and all the guests commented on how delicious the food was (and her focaccia was incredible)! Her entire staff was wonderful to work with, and we couldn’t have asked for a better team to work with for our wedding! Can’t recommend Jessica and her team enough! Thank you!

Humble Bumble provides the freshest and most delicious food for your event. Jessica is incredibly kind and easy to work with. She is quick to respond to questions and food requests. We have utilized Jessica and her team for two events at our school and have already booked her for the 2025 event. You won't be disappointed.

Wow, Humble bumble was magnificent. They catered our wedding, including appetizers and dinner, and our guests were raving about the food. The chicken was moist and delicious, when was the last time someone got up for seconds of chicken at a wedding? The food amount was ample. Our guests raved about the hors d’oeuvres at cocktail hour, and the charcuterie spread was a hit. They provided water service and everyone’s glasses were always filled. Could not recommend them enough, definitely hire Jessica and her team!
