Thank you for such kind words Taylor! We put so much into making sure things go well for you and your fiancée on your wedding day so this makes us so happy! Congratulations again and let us know if we can do anything for you in the future.

e in contact before our wedding. I would have them cater our wedding 1000X over again and could not recommend them enough! So affordable and truly the best catered food I’ve ever had!
I could not rave more about Matthew's Catering! Not only in the food incredible, but everyone from Matt, Jeni, and their event staff were so so awesome! From the custom menus, to the speedy and diligent communication through the whole process, ...
to even being calm, cool, and collected when timelines adjusted the day before, everything was amazing!
Matt and Jeni were a joy to chat with at our tasting, and Jeni was truly next level with any questions/requests/random thoughts we had. Anytime I had a question, she had a speedy answer and assured me that no question was a dumb question (which I so appreciated). They made sure that all our guests, even our vegan friends, had plenty of yummy options! The staff they provided to work our wedding buffet were amazing, kind, and so professional. They even offered to grab my partner and I's plates first so we didn't have to leave our sweethearts table. They were so on top of everything, we truly couldn't have asked for a better catering team. I would recommend Matthew's Catering 100% to anyone looking for a caterer!

From the tasting experience with customized menu options based on what we were looking for, to making our actual wedding day a seamless and wonderful time for all of our guests, we truly thank Matthew and Jeni for being part of our journey! The...
ir salad dressings are all homemade and choosing which ones to serve our guests was one of the hardest decisions we made during wedding planning (just kidding... but really they are all so good). Matthew was very open to our feedback and suggestions & Jeni was responsive throughout the entire process, and proactively reached out two weeks before the wedding to confirm all the final details. I hope they're available for your day and you get a chance to work with them!

ld eat this food once a week!! It was so good!
One thing that I my husband and I were sad about was our promised leftovers, that we never ended up taking to our hotel. This wasn't a huge issue, we just were looking forward to this perk from our caterer. (this wasn't there fault, just a bummer)
All in all, We would highly recommend Matthews catering!!!

Thank you for this review Emily! We greatly appreciate the chance to serve you on your wedding day.
I highly recommend Matthew’s Catering. Jeni was so helpful in answering all my questions. She also took it on herself to contact the venue to set up arrival time, etc. Also, the food was delicious.
Response from the Vendor on 07/22/2022
Thank you so much Teresa!
From the very beginning, working with Jeni and Chef Matt was great. We wanted to do a more unusual menu and Chef Matt created a meal to exceed our expectations (a combination of greek salad, mediterranean rice, grilled veggies, pita and hummus,...
and his own take on shawarma chicken). Our guests couldn't stop talking about it! I mean, to get compliments that it was the best wedding food and just food in general that they ever had was outstanding and made us feel like we were able to really treat our guests!
Working with Jeni was so refreshing! She is professional and caring, and brought up so many details that I hadn't even thought of that elevated the service we received. She even cut our cake for the guests!
We also had our rehearsal dinner catered by Matthew's Catering and were so impressed with his KC BBQ. The brisket was melt in your mouth tender and the sides were delicious.
The price is very reasonable and the quality and value can't be beat.
This team is truly an asset to an event they serve. Just wonderful. We were so incredibly lucky to find them.
I will be recommending them for any and all occasions. They are THAT good. Give them a call or email them, they will exceed your expectations!
