We had the absolute pleasure of working with Lib’s Catering for our wedding on April 12, 2025, at Comus Farm, and we cannot say enough wonderful things about the entire experience!
From the moment we met the Lib’s team at a bridal fair, we were instantly drawn in by their warmth, professionalism, and—of course—the delicious food we sampled. My husband is a man of few words, and doesn't often get too excited outwardly. But after talking to Lib's team at the bridal fair that day it was one of his few nonnegotiable that they had to cater the wedding. He said, first, they actually had delicious food, and second, the conversation with them was easy, honest, and relatable, and that made him feel like he could trust them with our special day. That first impression carried through every step of the planning process. Our tasting was not only enjoyable but also gave us complete confidence that we were making one of the best decisions of our wedding planning journey.
A very special shoutout to Chele Thompson, our catering event manager, who went above and beyond to ensure everything was flawless. From helping us craft the perfect menu to coordinating every last detail, Chele was a joy to work with. Her and the team for our wedding executed flawlessly. Her attentiveness, calm demeanor, and can-do spirit were exactly what we needed. She and her staff were amazing! Many of my guests kept saying how kind, attentive, and funny the team was (at one point, one of my admittedly drunk guests, was demanding I bring out the chef so he could give him a hug.)
We opted for family style service, and it was a hit! Guests were thrilled to be served simultaneously while still having a variety of options—something a plated dinner would not have allowed. The food was not only beautifully presented but absolutely delicious— we heard compliments all night long.
And just when we thought the night couldn’t get any better, the late night French-fry bar was rolled out—complete with every topping imaginable! It was such a fun and unexpected surprise that capped the evening perfectly.
Everything ran smoothly, was timed beautifully, and showed the care and thought that Lib’s puts into each event. Their team helped make our celebration elegant, seamless, and unforgettable.
Kudos to Lib’s Catering —we highly recommend them for any event where food, service, presentation, and attention to detail matters.
My husband and I initially chose Lib’s Catering for our wedding because their food was amazing and their staff were extremely accommodating. They really allowed us to curate our menu until it reflected the vibe we were going for. On our actual wedding day, the staff went above and beyond expectations. The food was so good our guests are still talking about it even today. I could not recommend them more. Having them as our wedding caterer was one of the best investments we could have made. Our wedding was PERFECT thanks to their efforts and professionalism.
Lib's was an incredibly professional and dedicated catering company to work with for our October 2024 wedding. They provided a staff member who took care of my husband and I specifically all throughout our wedding night, making sure that we had a drink in our hands and any snacks as requested. They were able to provide us a private newlywed dinner, which was a special memory of the night. Their service was impeccable on the day of and they even helped with setting up some of the decor for us. We got so many compliments from our guests about the food, and it was absolutely delicious - from the entrees to the sides to the cocktail hour. It was really nice that they allowed us to provide our own alcohol and linens, and this was a great money saver within our wedding budget. They were very accommodating and flexible on this. We had custom cocktails that we made for the cocktail hour, which they were able to mix in advance and our guests loved them.
The only negatives I would have to say about our experience with them were we did receive some feedback from guests that the custom cocktails were not mixed correctly at first, and also the white wines were not put out at the beginning of cocktail hour. However, this is possibly due to our fault for not providing them with the wine at the right time, and the custom cocktails were a bit complex to make, so they get a pass on that. The other issue we had was that they were trying to help by putting our flowers on our cake for us- which was them going above and beyond to be helpful- however they did put florist tape all over the cake for some reason, which honestly kind of ruined the look unfortunately. However, they were just trying to help, and when they did cut and serve the cake they did a great job with the service.
We looked at a lot of different caterers, and had extensive interviews with all of them. Lib's made the cut due to their customizability, price point, quality, and service, and we would absolutely recommend them to anyone wanting to deliver their guests at high-end, delicious experience, at a very reasonable price point, with excellent service throughout the planning process and on the wedding day itself.
Lib's Grill was the caterer for our wedding and we could not be happier with the food, service, and experience they provided. They were helping us with the planning process every step of the way..,Chele', Kristin and the team were amazing! We highly recommend choosing the Sea Bass as one of your entree's. Thank you for making the day so special!!
Every person we worked with at Lib's was beyond amazing! Their staff the day of was very respectful and we got so many compliments on the beef and salmon meals!
Libs was the best! Kristin and her team were amazing start to finish. I remember specifically sitting at our sweetheart table just thinking how great the staff was. They came up to us and pretty much told us whatever we need, they got us. And they meant it. I can't really remember food from most weddings - as it's just eh, ok? Ours was phenomenal - and our guests made sure to tell us so! The apps were mouth watering. And order the pork chop, please. I promise, its the best pork chop you will ever have. Not that we were surprised, the tasting was SO GOOD. We got married at Rosewood Farms - Libs Grill is a preferred vendor. And for good reason. We eat at Libs in White Marsh pretty religiously - so it was a no brainer for us that we were going to use Libs as our catering. Book Libs, you wont be disappointed!
We were very impressed with the service provided by Lib's Grill for our wedding. All of our guests kept raving about how good the food was. Also, the dinner was served in such a timely manner that even the DJ commented on the good service. The Lib's grill team was so easy to work with during the wedding planning process with their quick communication. Also, we had a family member pass away the week of the wedding so we had to make some changes to the table arrangements, which they were very flexible with. Their team also sent us a card with their condolences. This proved to us that they were personable with their clients as well as professional.
We were so blown away by the quality of the food, the friendliness of the staff, our amazing food tasting… every single person we spoke to at our wedding talked to us about how amazing the food was. We have always been skeptical to do a buffet, however, we are so glad we did! We had so much support from Kristin to help us find the perfect menu with the right price for us. We were so pleasantly surprised and we would highly recommend them to all of our friends.
I am so glad we chose Lib's Grill for our wedding! The food and desserts were amazing. They were so easy and wonderful to work with from day 1. Their team is quick to respond and were always willing to help. The day went so smoothly. Everyone we worked with was so kind, and it is obvious they love what they do. I would recommend them to anyone!!
Kelly and her team made my wedding day perfect! The food was presented in a lovely display, the staff was super accommodating, the food was hot and delicious, and the tiramisu was out of this world. The little cheese boards were a huge hit and the appetizers were gone VERY quickly. I can’t thank the Libs Grill crew enough for all of their planning, hard work, and making our day such a breeze.
Lib’s was really great to work with for our wedding. They were responsive & created a fabulous menu for us. All of the staff that worked the event were lovely & did an amazing job making sure us and our guests were taken care of. The food cost was pricey, but that was due to the type of food we selected. If you want your food to be restaurant quality & have an elevated dining experience at your wedding or event, Lib’s is the way to go. They had worked many events at our venue, so it was really a seamless process from start to finish.
Libs was the best! We had 215 guests for a seated dinner and the service they provided went above and beyond my expectations. Kelly was so great to work with and accommodated all of my requests (adding table side wine service to our contract one week prior, providing natural light beer at our wedding even though it was not one of their typical beer offerings) they even ran out to get more beer when it was running low and a chocolate bar for my mom who is gluten free and could not eat our wedding cake/desserts. The food was amazing, we had an oyster bar and and signature orange and grape fruit crushes done expertly by Libs!
Libs was the absolute best! The best food and the best service on our wedding day! They always made sure we had what we needed throughout the night.
Kelly, the Catering Director, was so helpful and flexible through our entire experience. Her staff was friendly and the food was as good as when we had it at our original tasting which is what we were so hoping for. All of our guests RAVED about the food (roughly 140 people). They did a tremendous job!
We had a tasting at Lib’s Grill and everything was absolutely wonderful. The pan roasted chicken is one of my favorites which I frequently get at the restaurant so we knew we had to have it at our wedding. The second entree we chose was the short rib pasta which at the tasting had a lot of sauce and short rib pieces. The wedding day our meals were nothing like the tasting. The Caesar salad croutons look like they came out of a bag vs their homemade crostini croutons. The pasta didn’t have sauce on it and barely any short rib (maybe the sauce dried out in the serving pans?) The chicken was plain and didn’t have any mushroom sauce or spinach on top. I’m not sure who the head chefs were, but this meal did not meet the expectations of what this restaurant is known for. The service and our catering lead manager was top notch. Everything was set up and taken down with no issues at all, just missed out on the incredible food we had during our tasting.
Lib's Grill catered a 75th Birthday Party for me at the Cellar 2 in Parkville. I had never planned an event like this before. Not only was Lib's Grill's execution flawless and delivered as promised, they advised me on details as I planned. The food was excellent and plentiful. The catering staff were professional and friendly, but came to work and take care of my guests. Wish I had used Lib's Grill for my wedding.
Kelly, Steven and the entire Lib's Grill catering team went above and beyond to make our dream wedding a reality. We decided to have a family-style dinner and they executed it perfectly. Even with a last-minute push back of our reception start time Kelly and her team made sure our dinner came out great. We still have friends talking about the pasta and chicken! Delicious food and great staff! Highly recommend!
Lib’s Grill was amazing throughout the entire planning process! They were on top of everything and helped me stay within my budget. They were very responsive and answered every question that came up. The food was amazing on my wedding day! The service was also great. The food and drinks were a hit with my guests. They even accommodated my dairy allergy. Thank you so much for everything Lib’s Grill!
Lib’s did such a great job making us and our guests happy! The food was so delicious (highly recommend the short rib pasta) & the staff was really nice! Catering in general is expensive but once I gave the catering director our budget she did a phenomenal job coming up with a menu that we were happy with and felt it was reasonable.
We hired Lib's Grill for our wedding and their food is amazing!! They did such a great job catering our event and Kelly and Kristin were a dream to work with, especially from 5 hours away. They made everything so easy for us! The bartenders they provided were wonderful as well; they were so nice and professional the entire evening!
We hired Libs Grill to cater our wedding and it was absolutely delicious! They were so easy to work with, organized, and communicative. When we sat down for our tasting they worked with us to customize the perfect meal and drink plan that we envisioned for our big day. Their team is incredibly friendly and made our big day extra special. Highly recommend hiring them for your next event. We can't thank them enough!
Libs Grill was absolutely AMAZING! We worked with Kelly through our whole wedding process and I was absolutely blown away by her. Kelly was organized, diligent, and on top of everything. Leading up to the wedding my venue had a change of staff and information about our wedding day got lost. Kelly was able to fix the situation and help the new venue coordinator get my wedding going in under an hour! My husband and I had a small wedding so we opted for heavy hors d'oeuvres. Kelly and her staff were quick to make a plate for my husband and I after photos finished and bring us drinks so we could spend time with our quests. The food was AMAZING. Our friends and family are still talking about every item and how good the food was. The fan favorite was the lobster mac and cheese and the brownie cheesecake desert. 10/10 recommend Lib's Grill for all of your catering needs! We can't wait to eat at their restaurant for our 1 year anniversary!
Libs went the extra mile for my wife and I. They were on point, friendly, and completely accountable. Hire Them!!!
Lib's Grill catered our wedding in Elkton MD on 6/5 and they were amazing! They let us customize our menu and were very flexible with all of our requests. During the event the staff was professional, catered to our guests, and always made sure everyone had an ice cold drink in their hand (despite the fact it was 92 degrees out!!!). We also got a lot of compliments on how good the food was! I would recommend Kristin Kelly and the rest of the Lib's Grill team to anyone having an upcoming wedding.
We are huge fans of the Lib’s Grill restaurant, so for us to book them for our wedding was a no brainer. What I didn’t expect was the incredible level of service we received from every single member of the catering staff. I couldn’t recommend this company more for your event!! The food was absolutely incredible, and the team went above and beyond to make sure everything was perfect.
Lib’s grill did a phenomenal job! They went above an beyond treating our guests like family. The food was delicious and they made sure my husband and I were fed. Our guests raved about the food, how nice and helpful the staff was. My now husband and I will continue to visit Lib’s grill on special occasions! - K. Soltanuk
I could not have been happier with our experience with Lib’s Grill! We started the process of booking in the beginning of COVID, so we had to do a virtual tasting. It was so easy and fun, and the food was so good that we knew we HAD to book them for our wedding. Both Kristin and Kelly were so amazing and the staff was outstanding the day of our wedding. The food was amazing (crabcakes and beef) and we got so many compliments on it!
We were planning to use Lib's as our caterer for our October 2020 wedding, but COVID changed that. We worked with Kristin to figure out our package and menu and had a wonderful time doing the tasting back in February. When we had to downscale our wedding, Lib's was so flexible about letting us change plans. We only had immediate family present for our ceremony, and then arranged for take-out from Lib's for everyone to pick up. When we're able to have a large celebration again with all of our out-of-town guests, we'll definitely plan on using Lib's!
Lib’s Grill is the best. So happy they catered our wedding. Everything was perfect.
I am so glad that we found Lib's Grill to cater our wedding. We got so many compliments about the food and the team really went above and beyond what we expected to help ensure everything ran smoothly the day of. Leading up to the wedding Kristin was extremely helpful and really listened to us to make sure everything was perfect. I highly recommend Lib's Grill to anyone looking for a caterer and can't wait until our next big event when we can use them again!
We can not say enough good things about Lib's Grill Catering. They truly knocked our wedding out of the park. Lib's Grill went above and beyond. From start to finish, working with them was absolutely amazing. Despite our wedding being in a remote location and hours from the restaurant, the food was served hot and fresh. The staff catered to our specific requests, and were willing to make items that were not even on the catering menu. Even 6 months after our wedding, our guests still rave about the food. If you want amazing food and an enjoyable experience, you will book Lib's Grill now! I would without hesitation book them again.
I've worked with a lot of vendors and this place had by far the best customer service. Kristin, the catering director, was so great to work with. She was so positive and offered great suggestions and creative options to make my event better and more affordable. Her and the manager both were so accomodating to all my requests. The servers were also so sweet and even played with the children at the end. After my event so many of my guests inquired about the restaurant. Though it's only been a couple of months since my event...many of guests have since gone back to host their own event here or at least have dinner...because not only was the service great...their food was ON POINT.
Lib's Grill does an amazing job from start to finish when using them for events. Whether it be a catered event or dining in their restaurant you get amazing tasting food and top line service! All the staff are friendly and are attentive to your every need. Kristin manages the catering piece and does and amazing job giving you options and making everything simple and clear.
The best experience ever! Lib's Grill provided us with excellent food and outstanding service. They were willing to accommodate all of our requests. Our guests are still complimenting our wedding day menu even months after the event. I would highly recommend Lib's Grill for your next catering event.
I had Libs cater my wedding and they did an outstanding job. The food was fantastic, really exceeded my expectations. The catering director, Kristin, was so amazing and great to work with. She answered any questions I had. I will definitely be using them for future events!
Lib’s Grill Catering Team for our wedding was amazing. They made sure everything was perfect. The food was amazing and got compliments from everyone in attendance. They made sure my wife and I were fed, which was something we were worried about initially. The professionalism and service they provided far exceeded our expectations. They used our decorative ideas and made our reception area absolutely gorgeous. The bartender made sure our guests always had exactly what they needed. They made sure our guests were always taken care of and honestly made our entire day come together. I couldn’t have imagined our day with anyone else! Thank you Lib's Grill for helping us have the most amazing day!
