Plantation Catering of Newport, Inc

Kim and Amanda were fantastic. They worked to help us create the intimate dinner party we wanted for our wedding, and were really flexible in helping us stay within a reasonable budget. We had Amanda's complete attention leading up to and during the day of the wedding. We really enjoyed working with Plantation, and our guests had great things to say about our raw bar, all the apps, and our meals. Thank you, Kim and Amanda!

Look no further! Kim and her staff at Plantation are truly the best. They were extraordinarily helpful throughout the entire process; going above and beyond the call of duty and providing the best wedding food we have ever had! Kim not only helped us put together a perfect menu (which our guests are still raving about months later!), but also helped coordinate with our florist, the rental company and the venue to ensure everything had the look we wished for and went off without a hitch! She patiently answered my many questions very quickly throughout our year of planning together. Day of she was on site herself for the entire time to make sure everything was perfect. She was constantly checking in with my husband and I to see if we needed anything, and she had a member of her staff dedicated to the wedding party to bring us appetizers and beverages wherever we were. She helped us keep track of timing, with helpful gentle reminders to make sure things stayed on track. I was able to be completely calm and relaxed on the big day because of her. Somehow she managed to both guide her staff and our wedding party with gentle and helpful tips to make everything picture perfect.

Everything was perfect from beginning to end! The food was delicious, the decorations, the service - everything!! We were thrilled! I definitely recommend and will use in the future for other events. We loved that the menu was unique and we were able to really make it our own. Very, very happy!

Kim and her staff at Plantation are simply wonderful. They were more than accommodating with every request, suggestion and change that my fiancé and I made during our planning process. They were always professional, and very quick to respond to our (many) calls and emails (thank you Amanda!!). On the day of our wedding, Kim made sure that everything went smoothly and effortlessly throughout the evening. She was constantly checking in with my husband and I to see if we needed anything, and she had a member of her staff dedicated to the wedding party to bring us appetizers and beverages wherever we were. The waitress even hiked down a huge rocky hill with a full tray of food down to where my husband and I were taking pictures! The food was delicious, and we received many compliments from our guests. I really can't say enough good things about Plantation. They are worth every penny!

The staff at Plantation was very helpful and accomodating throughout the entire planning process. We were able to do a tasting at our first meeting which was very important to us. I sent many emails and I was answered promptly every time. There were a few issues the day of the wedding though that I wasnt happy about. One, I asked that my guests be served coffee at their tables but they had to go up to a table and get it themselves which I have never heard of before. We paid a lot of money and weren't too happy that our guests had to serve themselves. The bartender didn't ID anyone so underage people were drinking which caused a problem. That isn't something my husband and I should have had to worry about on our wedding day but unfortunately it was.

Good to work with overall. Few small things I wish had gone differently 1) groom and I barely got any hors d'oeuvres --wish they had given us a small plate 2) we asked for the kids' meal to be hamburgers and it was cheeseburgers. Other than that -- food was great, cake was delicious, staff was good.

We were very happy with Plantation. Our catering manager was great to work with, and everything ran smoothly at our reception. There were a few details that we requested that were overlooked, so my only recommendation is to remind your manager of all special requests. Overall, a huge hit. We got lots of compliments on our food!

Plantation Catering of Newport exceeded all of my expectations for food and service. Their staff was more than accomodating and helpful throughout the entire planning process. The quality of the food and the presentation was outstanding! To every bride out there I would highly recomend Plantation.
