I had my wedding catered by Mama D's and it was fantastic! My guests raved about the food and the service. The presentation of the food was also amazing. Dana came through for me...
last minute with bottle service that I did not think about (planned my wedding on my own) and she handled everything so quickly, I was so thankful. The whole staff was very nice and professional. Being able to taste the food beforehand was also great. Would highly recommend Dana and Mama D's catering to anyone!
Mama D's Catering did an oustanding job, we could not have asked for a better experience. Dana worked out all the details up front for us and made the experience seamless. We have ...
several gluten-free family members and friends, and she was able to alter the menu to fit everyone's needs. The lemon rosemary chicken was out of this world delicious! The bourbon glazed carrots are still being talked about two weeks later... (I need that recipe!) The staff was very professional, so helpful and polite. The buffet matched our wedding colors and blended in beautifully. This company offers many add-ons to make this a one-stop-shop. We opted in for the coffee bar, grazing table (which we got so many compliments on) and extra clean-up staff. (They were able to make a separate gluten free grazing board as well.) I can't express enough how friendly the staff was, and treating the kids so nice as to help them with their plates through the buffet line! All the little extras really make a big difference. Thank you so much for making our wedding special! My family highly recommends Mama D's Catering if you want great service and delicious food!
