Savannah Event Catering

actly what we wanted. They didn't say no to any of our requests. I would recommend them to anyone we know in our area!

ating and completely understood our vision. The food was INCREDIBLE - our guests are still raving about it! They truly overdelivered and exceeded any and all expectations. If you're looking for outstanding food and service, look no further. We will be lifelong customers and will sing their praises every chance we get!

l buffet and two stations from them and our wedding guest absolutely loved it. The beef risotto was fan favorite with our guests.

nication was prompt and thorough. Our questions were answered, we were provided detailed food plans, and we were greeted with appreciation for inquiring about their services. Let us now brag on the day-of service- WOW! We have been contacted by numerous guests about how delicious the food was, how organized and clean the tables were, and how professional the entire staff was throughout our wedding day! I asked the chef for a custom menu for my (bride's) dinner that was not on the dinner buffet line and to my delight they delivered with no hesitation. The food was properly handled, beautifully displayed, and service was excellent. We HIGHLY recommend SEC and the shrimp 'n' grits!! I cannot rave more about our experience and how grateful our entire family and guest list was with the company!"

d it! We did the flaming donuts, and they were an amazing final touch to the evening!

went above and beyond to ensure that every culinary detail was perfect, making our special day even more memorable. One of the highlights of the evening was the pupusa station. He went and above to create this for us. This delightful touch honored the groom’s Latin heritage and was an absolute hit with our guests. The pupusas were made fresh on-site and were nothing short of spectacular. The ceviche was another standout. It was fresh, vibrant, and perfectly seasoned, leaving our guests raving about it all night. The brie raspberry cups were a delicious surprise, offering a sweet and savory bite that everyone loved. Knowing the groom’s love for tacos, Chef Mark created a gourmet taco station that was both elegant and reminiscent of street food flair. It was a perfect blend of sophistication and comfort, and the guests couldn’t get enough. For the bride’s Indian heritage, the team presented an array of Indian dishes that were authentic, flavorful, and beautifully presented. Our Indian guests felt right at home with these delicious offerings, and it added a wonderful cultural touch to the celebration. The seafood options were a massive hit as well, with every bite showcasing the freshness and quality of the ingredients. Every station, every dish was crafted with care and attention to detail. Overall, Chef Mark Savannah Event Catering exceeded our expectations in every way. Their ability to blend different culinary traditions seamlessly and their commitment to quality and service was truly impressive. We couldn’t recommend them more highly. Nothing but 5 stars! Thank you, Chef Mark and team, for making our wedding day unforgettable!

flaming donut station! We are so happy with how everything went and couldn't recommend Savannah Event Catering more!

nah!

with, and they gave excellent suggestions. All of our guests commented on how tasty the food was.

those shrimp and grits, and those donuts! People are still texting us talking about how yummy the food was. Thanks to Mark, Julia and the team at SEC!

and drinks throughout of photos. Definitely worth every penny!! 10/10 recommend!!

looking for. My daughter's wedding was held at a venue that was outdoors. We had a rain plan. Well... all the best plans can take a turn. The plan had to change from being under a tent to under a different covered area due to possible lightening. SEC quickly shifted with the plan, moved all the set up within the cocktail hour, and made no complaints. The cocktails hour food was particularly good - shrimp and grits, charcutier table (all kinds of items), passed items. The dinner was tasty too with blackened chicken and red snapper. I really appreciate how they accommodated my daughter's requests and adapted to a challenging weather situation. AND the food was great! thank you.

us. We heard compliments all night long about the shrimp and grits and the beef and risotto. The staff was so king and efficient all night long. Thank you SEC for all your hard work!

ding just raving about the food! Everything was just as it was for our tasting - even the hors d'oeuvres. I cannot thank them enough for all the hard work they put into our wedding and how just amazing the service staff was. Savannah Event Catering is THE BEST and I am so happy we got to share our Wedding with them!

y email and made endless tweaks to our menu. When I accidentally miscounted our final guest count, they adjusted and refunded me even though I was a day late in changing the number. For our tasting, they prepared a vegan meal for us to sample for a few guests who had a high number of dietary restrictions. Despite never preparing something like that before, they did a great job and we really appreciated the extra effort. They also worked well with us to maximize our budget and to fit the vibe of our reception. We did not have a cocktail hour or seated dinner and really wanted the reception to be a big party full of mingling and dancing. SEC's stations were perfect for this as people were able to grab small portions one at a time and get right back to the dance floor. The food was also very savory and filling so that it soaked up all the drinking people also did during our reception. When in doubt, you can't go wrong with shrimp and grits, beef and risotto, and a pasta station. Service was incredible and our guests could not stop commenting on how kind and efficient the service staff was. Used plates and napkins never sat longer than a minute at any table. It was really impressive!

my!!! (Our daughter and son-in-law don't live here) Chef Mark was extremely helpful with the choices. They changed our appetizers on the fly due to the possibility of Hurricane Ian and they were perfect. The SEC staff and service was top notch. They put out all of our chargers for us and the place settings looked amazing. My husband and I were very impressed with the food, tasted exactly like our tasting. We had compliment after compliment that it was the best wedding food that people had ever had. People still are talking about it. Service was upscale!!! We had the pecan crusted salmon, chicken picatta, and a roast beef station. The sides were also very good (asiago Mac and Cheese Yum). The flaming donuts were definitely a hit and a must have--yummy and very entertaining.

ust!

still raving about the food. Chef Mark and his team were so easy to work with! We went with 2 passed apps (pork potstickers, bacon wrapped shrimp) and a cheese/fruit display for cocktail hour. The display was massive and a huge hit. The staff was fantastic as well! They brought us apps in between pictures so we could also enjoy them and checked on us several times during dinner service. For dinner we ended up doing a buffet with a craving station. We had several guests go back for seconds and one went back for a third round 😂 We also had the amazing flaming doughnuts! You cannot go wrong with any of the options! Everything was delicious and presentation just beautiful! Thank you so much SEC!!

re that we had exactly what we wanted for our wedding day. The food was amazing! Everyone loved all of the stations and were able to get exactly what they wanted for dinner. The passed appetizers during cocktail hour were also amazing and they made sure to come and make sure my husband and I had enough food.

mazing. She was able to answer all of my crazy questions. I would definitely use them for another event and recommend them.

l and the suggested that we bring our families with us which was a huge help too. The captains at our event were wonderful and made sure that the layout was exactly how we wanted it and the food... THE FOOD. So so good and we still have people telling us how good the food was. The donuts were a no brainer for us, and the guests ate them up! 100/10 experience throughout. Cannot say enough good things about Chef Mark and the entire Savannah Event Catering team.

adjustments needed to be made to the menu throughout the planning process. The tasting was also SUCH a treat! Chef Mark was seriously such a nice person and was very patient with me, my husband, my parents, and my mother in law and helped with any questions we had about our menu. I'm so thankful Savannah Event Catering got to be a part of our day and appreciate all of their hard work for our event!

s, and their food (one of things that ALL of your guests notice) is mind-blowingly delicious. No generic, rubber-chicken dinners here. After a week, our guests are still talking about how much they enjoyed the food!

them to anyone looking for professional, reliable and delicious catering. My wedding guests are still raving about the food they ate at our wedding! *Chefs kiss*

nd his passion for food during the initial tasting. The main event was even better! Our guests commented that this was the best food they had ever had at a wedding, and we wholeheartedly agree! We highly recommend Chef Mark and his staff for any event you may consider. He is fabulous!

ing was fun (and filling), Chef Mark suggested items we wouldn’t have originally chosen, but ended up having on the menu. Julia, office administrator for SEC, is awesome! She was so helpful and patient with questions and rescheduling when Covid changed our plans, and throughout the entire process. SEC brought their A game and provided quality food, but also sent a staff who treated our guests with such courtesy and professionalism – the servers received many compliments from our friends and family. Don’t miss out on the best Shrimp and Grits (and I don’t even like grits)! SEC -10 stars.

ssert. It was a crowd favorite.

ving to postpone our 2020 wedding and with that change we switched venues. As the final preparation for our big day was finally approaching, our planner was coordinating with our vendors for finalizations and Chef Mark recognized one change we forgot to implement. We were originally doing stations, but our new venue had a space in the back for food, which was better suited for buffet style. Chef Mark, noticing the change in the final days leading up, quickly drafted a new menu to accommodate a more structured and swift dinner hour. We ended up having a call with my planner and Chef Mark to create the perfect revised menu for a well-structured and smooth dinner hour. The highlight of the wedding were the flaming donuts served for dessert, that our guests continue to rave about. Our late night snack of grilled cheese was also a fan favorite at our wedding. Although we missed out on this treat, I have been told by a guest “ I will never look at grilled cheese the same. Life changing”. Thank you Savannah Event Catering for making my day extra special and eventful with the wonderful food. Highly recommend.

think I was going to get my guy out of there!!! The two main dishes that were THE HITS of the whole Wedding where the Shrimp and Grits and the FLAMING DOUGHNUTS!! People are still talking about it a week later!!! I couldn't be happier with choosing SEC. The staff at the venue were polite, respectful, fun and amazing!!! I definitely recommmend Mark and his team!!!!

ut bar - there wasn’t any food left over!! Chef Mark personally came to find my husband and I while taking photos to make sure we got a plate of the appetizers. We were also served our meals first so we could eat before making our rounds to guests. Schedule a tasting with SEC right away to taste their delicious menu and get your hands on one of their donuts!

dinner. The staff is very friendly and easy to work with, as well. Chef Mark, Julia, and everyone that we communicated with was kind, professional and knowledgable about food pairings and best wedding practices. I am convinced that SEC is the best caterer in the Savannah area.

. Our tasting blew us out of the water and we knew we had to book them! We followed their Instagram page and with every delicious post grew more and more excited for our wedding. Julia in the office was always so helpful with what were probably a lot of last minute COVID related changes to our guest list. Our wedding day came and all of the staff were so sweet and helpful. Some of the guys even helped us moved some heavy boxes without us even asking for help, because they were just so sweet. Now, THE FOOD. I honestly think every single guest raved about every single course. The amount of compliments we got on the salad alone--no one knew a salad could be so amazing. Mark made sure to save my groom and I some appetizers so we could try them--such a thoughtful touch. We did the beef tenderloin with demi-glace, the chicken beaumont and one person with a veggie meal--EVERY single person RAVED!!! We finished with the key lime tarts and I actually ordered extra so I could take some home--best decision I have ever made! But the real showstopper were the flaming donuts. Not only were they delicious but it was such a fun and unusual way to end the night. PLEASE do yourself the best favor you could ever do and book Mark and team for your wedding !!! A million thank yous!

as good, even better at the wedding. Our guests enjoyed it and they took care of everything they said they would. I highly recommend Savannah Event Catering.

The food was flavorful, fresh and hot. All our friends and family kept mentioning how delicious the passed hor d'oeuvres, plated salad and main meal were, and they were all blown away by the flaming donuts and ice cream! I would recommend anyone having a wedding in the Savannah area to hire Savannah Event Catering.

ional, and the food was absolutely delicious. It rained on the day of our event, which had little impact on catering staff. They made every effort to make our day special.

after your tasting you will have a hard time deciding on which goodies, you’ll want your guests eating on the big day. We had a carving station, shrimp and grits, several delicious appetizers and Flaming Donuts! All of our food was a hit! I highly recommend Chef Mark and his team.

we knew exactly what we were getting. The staff was super professional and really adaptable with the current situation going on. The flaming donut station was to die for and a hit with our guests. I’m still getting messages a week later about how amazing all the food was!

ry dish we wanted to have at our wedding, preparing us for how to serve things during COVID, suggesting dishes we wouldn't have thought of. So many of our guests told us it was the best wedding food they've ever had. Book them now!

working with him and his staff before and at the wedding, especially Mandy. Mandy was very responsive during the planning process. Mark also blew our guests away with his food. We heard all wonderful things about the food at our wedding and we couldn’t have agreed more! The shrimp and grits were a hit. We would recommend Savannah Event Catering to everyone getting married in the Savannah area. Thank you, Mark and the Savannah Events Catering Team!

e ordered 3 different appetizers and low country boil for dinner! It was SO GOOD and the service was absolutely phenomenal. Everyone was super nice and professional and made sure our guests had everything they needed! They also boxed up appetizers & food for us to take home which was PERFECT because we barely had time to eat at the reception and were starving by the time we got home!
