Seed Sprout Spoon

ing some of the most delicious pickled vegetables I've ever eaten, and the dinner itself was show-stopping. We opted for family-style service which lent an intimate dinner-party feel to our reception and allowed people to pick-and-choose what they ate without having to stand in line at a buffet table. Our food selections included salad of mixed greens with crispy quinoa, roasted chicken with garlic au jus, wild mushrooms over rice pilaf, grilled farmer's market veggies, and sesame green bean salad. No less than half of our guests told me that the rice pilaf was the best thing they had ever eaten, and I would have to agree with them! Our coordinator, Dani, worked with us to create a menu that met the (numerous!) dietary restrictions of our guests, around one third of whom were vegetarian or vegan with several gluten-free individuals, and allowed everyone to enjoy their dinner. Throughout the whole process, Dani answered each and every question I sent her way quickly and thoroughly. She made the planning process actually feel like fun! Day-of staff were exceedingly friendly and efficient. Additionally, Seed Sprout Spoon's vintage dinnerware collection was gorgeous and made for absolutely beautiful table settings. Seed Sprout Spoon made our wedding dreams come true! What a truly perfect experience!

! Dani was amazing to work with and did a fantastic job helping to make our day perfect!

d Sprout Spoon, because they exceeded all of our expectations. Erin was excellent to work with. Their vintage china, glassware, and linens were gorgeous. And our guests couldn't stop talking about how delicious our buffet and the vegetarian options(!!) were. It's a good feeling when the best wedding food you've ever had is at your own wedding. I would not hesitate to recommend Seed Sprout Spoon to anyone planning a wedding in the St. Louis region!

cake. The way they set up their buffets and stations is so beautiful with eclectic decor that really matched our vibe. But the real star is the food itself -- truly everything was beyond delicious, and our guests were raving about it throughout the night. We are still hearing from guests that it was the best food they'd ever had at a wedding! Erin was great to work with and helped us coordinate our place settings and linens as well, which made for a seamless experience. I will say that sometimes communications were a little slow (there was a management change and SSS opened their own venue during our planning period) but don't let that deter you -- they were absolutely incredible day-of and extremely responsive in the month leading up to our wedding, when it really matters. We're so glad we picked SSS to help us execute a memorable food experience!!

t that some would need something vegan -- so the venue provided a vegan entree for these guests at no extra cost! The presentation is of course beautiful. Erin understood my vision perfectly and even set up and bussed tableware that was rented from a different company. Erin was very easy to work with and helped me understand the ins-and-outs of menu planning and how they would help coordinate everything on the day of. Highly recommend!

just phenomenal! Plus all the food tasted amazing! The smashed sweet potatoes were a huge hit! Our photographer and venue coordinator both came up to us and raved that it was the best wedding food they had ever had! They also got us pre made plates of the apps and dinner for our table so we didnt have to go through the buffet line! They were amazing, the food was amazing, everything was just amazing!

reat to work with and everyone who worked the day of our wedding was so kind and excellent. We had delicious chicken and brisket, salad, vegetables and EVERYTHING was good. Promise. Everyone raved about the food. They put LOVE in their catering and it shows!

d our apps (pretzels and meat and cheese boards) late night (sliders duo) and desert bites through them. Only regret is not taking time to try more during the wedding because we were so busy!

ven made a custom station of Chicago style foods, since that's where my now husband is from! We did desserts and our cake through them as well, all were absolutely incredible! Communication was a little difficult at times (they had a huge management change and then opened their own venue) but despite that everything turned out incredible!

o the top for having vegetarian options that were not just an afterthought. We had so much fun choosing our menu and our guests loved the food—it really felt like EVERYONE commented that our wedding food was the best they had ever had! To be able to make vegetarians and major meat eaters happy with the same family-style menu seems like quite a feat, and SSS achieved it. We also had them make a food favor for us of Gooey Butter Cake and Chex Mix and we heard from guests that it was the best Gooey Butter Cake they'd had! I would absolutely recommend them! We also ordered our cake through them too and my only regret is that we didn't order double what we needed so people could take some home for breakfast the next day, because that was a delicious cake.

about the food. We opted for the basic place settings, and everything on the tables still looked amazing. Seed Sprout Spoon was also very easy to work with on accommodating dietary restrictions, and the guests who needed special meals still got delicious food. We were also pleased with the price: our per-person cost was substantially lower than some of the other caterers we considered. They were also a great complement to our venue, Wild Carrot: they are a preferred caterer there, which makes everything seamless and low-stress.

eatly about the ethical and sustainable sourcing of food, this was an easy choice--only SSS offers the quality and ethics we wanted for such a large event. Their food is, of course, also delicious--we had a brunch wedding and had breakfast burritos, sweet and savory waffles, yogurt/granola parfaits, bagels and lox, various baked goods--so many tasty things! Plus they did a beautiful job with the decor, producing beautiful table arrangements throughout our venue. Booking Seed Sprout Spoon not only guarantees a delicious meal for your guests, but also ensures that your event is produced in a sustainable, environmentally- and animal- friendly way.

e the St. Louis area. While we were originally planning on having our dinner plated, Erin encouraged us to try family style and we ended up loving it! Our wedding guests can't stop raving about the delicious food and fun of family style. It really helped our guests start conversation with one another and gave our wedding a special feel. We did have some difficulty communicating with Seed Sprout Spoon throughout the planning process (had to follow up to unanswered emails a few times), as they were opening their own venue this year, and our contact changed a few times. We would still recommend, as the food and day-of service were fantastic.

drawn to the locally-sourced food as well as the beautiful displays, and they delivered. Our charcuterie board for our cocktail hour was so beautifully displayed - it looked like art. I specifically requested a salmon dish (being from Oregon) and Erin and her staff went above and beyond to support that. We requested wine servers during our event and Erin made this easily happen. The staff was plentiful, pleasant and worked hard (plates were cleared quickly, wine glasses filled frequently, etc). Erin fully coordinated an outside rental company to get the specific kind of gold-rimmed plates and goblets I requested. Erin's communication was excellent from start to finish - our phone calls never felt rushed and I felt like I always had my questions answered. We added on late-night food a week before the wedding - and Erin and her staff delivered without issue. I could not say enough good things about SSS. The food was top-notch, the displays were breathtaking and the service was that of an elite restaurant. Hire them immediately.

entation of the food and incorporating personality and beauty into it, which was important to my husband and I. We were able to have a meeting at their (beautiful) offices and hand select certain styling pieces, tableware, and other accessories we wanted to be sure they would include on the big day. The food itself was incredible. They offer a group tasting with a few guests to be able to try many of their dishes which was such a special thing. Their brisket was to die for as well as their general attention to detail on local ingredients and unique combinations. They were very flexible and open with us on customizing our salad choice and desserts. Loved having them as our caterer.

food stations. It was a hit! We definitely recommend using them for your wedding or event!

t our venue and what options would work best, along with what sounded good to us and the feel of our day. They also took care of all of our desserts, cake, yummy pre-ceremony drinks, and a late-night snack! So happy we went with them for our day.

ed and thankful!

e the billionth time, meeting with Erin was the first thing that had felt good or progressive in many months. Not only did this incredible team prepare an absolutely delicious reception meal and dessert for us, they designed the space to match our centerpieces and decor SO PERFECTLY that I had to accept compliments on their behalf all night. And not only did they do that, but they created one of the most unique layouts of a wedding space that I had ever seen to solve for a timing issue we were really stressed about. They were communicative, open to ideas and suggestions and super laid back about everything, which helped a lot because I was an absolute mess in the weeks leading up to our event. Erin and everyone on site for the day were so wonderful and kind to us and our guests. Did I mention that the food was dynamite? From accommodating our menu needs to accommodating our vegetarian guests with a delicious alternative plate, Seed Sprout Spoon effortlessly supported our vision with the kind of coolness you hope for as a bride. I say once again, HIRE THIS TEAM if you want a feast for the senses and a balm on your nerves. We could not have been any happier with this crew.

ocally harvested food. SSS went above and beyond our expectations. Not only did they provide a sustainable catering service, they were extremely affordable, very responsive and friendly, and made the food look like a work of art on wedding day. In fact, Erin was in charge of decorating our cake for the wedding, and we were supposed to provide her with dried lavender to paste onto the cake. However, somehow the lavender never got to her on wedding day -- instead, she freehanded the design with frosting, and it was BEAUTIFUL! Our guests said the cake looked like a sculpture. We highly, highly recommend SSS!

ing process, which began with sharing ideas for a casual reception that we tried to reschedule and adapt multiple times, and ended up being a dinner for just my husband and I. Our celebration meal from Seed Sprout Spoon was beautiful, thoughtful and delicious, with custom menus, multiple Mediterranean inspired courses, a custom cocktail, and a beautifully decorated (and so tasty) sweetheart cake. I had been so worried would fall flat after all the disappointments of COVID planning, but the level of care and thoughtfulness made elevated our whole day to feel special and intimate. The only disappointment was that we couldn't share such delicious food with our friends and family. But we know we'll be able to turn to Seed Sprout Spoon for our next celebration.

ting up our daughter's rehearsal dinner and the food was absolutely delicious. We were accommodating several special dietary needs and had options to choose from. The food was hot and so tasty and the salads were fresh with a delicious dressing. The cookies and macaroons topped off a great evening. Thanks so helping us celebrate a very special event!

during COVID-19 in only a few weeks. She helped us make a custom menu to suit our vision, and even adjusted the entire timing and menu from brunch to dinner only 5 DAYS (!!) before the wedding when the AC went out at the venue. Truly, we could not have asked for a more accommodating, communicative, and supportive, and professional team. Since we had a small party size and budget, we ordered drop-off catering and Erin even helped make suggestions on hiring a party helper to make things run smoothly without the expense of a fully staffed event. The food arrived right on time and was beautifully presented and prepared. Our families raved that it was the most delicious meal they've had (seriously, the spanakopita hand pies went in .5 seconds!) and we even enjoyed some leftovers. Thank you, Erin and team, for everything!

dding! I love how she uses a lot of local products, vegetables, meats, cheeses. She is also conscious of minimizing waste which is another reason we chose Seed Sprout Spoon. The table decorations that they added on to the buffet fit perfectly with my wedding decor and it made the space look even more beautiful. Thank you guys so much it was delicious and I want to eat it again!

edding to share with all of our friends and families. Erin and her team were very accommodating to our needs and went above and beyond to make our wedding vision come to life. We were sold the second Erin mentioned family style dinner, we knew thats the shared experience we wanted for our wedding dinner. In addition to the most delicious food, Erin was able to create the most lovely table settings, the mix of vintage pieces really matched our vibe. Truly a full service experience which really made our wedding planning so easy. We are so grateful to Erin and her team, they were so accommodating and offered a fair price and excellent service. Thank you so much Seed Sprout Spoon! We loved working with you and our wedding was so perfect. We could not have done it without you! THANK YOU!

3 different food stations for our dinner (which I would highly recommend). While I was super busy and didn't get to enjoy all of the food, what I did have was absolutely amazing. The food stations were all decorated SO beautifully. I still can't get over how amazing it was. Erin also did all the decor and I am still blown away by her talents. A guest commented on our wedding the following day saying how much she loves details, and that the details of our wedding were perfect, which is all because of Erin. My friend told me one of her biggest life regrets was only taking 2 of the mini cupcakes, and not the entire tray. I could go on and on, but if you are looking for a caterer for your wedding, use Seed Sprout Spoon.

coordinator. She replied to so many emails, answered so many questions, and coordinated tastings of delicious dishes for us to try. She was great. The entire wait staff (we had the same wait staff Friday night for the rehearsal and on Saturday at the wedding) was also awesome - fun, funny, professional, and really sweet. Just overall wonderful people to work with. The food itself is insane. Just so good. We did stations at the wedding - a Mexican station, a mediterranean station, a pasta station, and an appetizer station. It was all like unbelievable. I've had people coming up to me (now 3 weeks later!) to tell me about which foods were their favorites and how good the food was. We also had an all vegan wedding, which SSS was perfect for, and even my most meat-centric friends are like "omg I need that queso dip again... give me more of those meatballs". SSS was amazing and I would recommend them to EVERYONE!!!

that they had never had better chicken- and Erin was incredibly gracious about the special requests we had, even managing to create a couple vegan, gluten-free meals (for guests whose dietary restrictions we had gotten wrong) TWO days before our wedding. The bar service was flawless, and the "signature cocktail" that was created for us was delicious. Additionally, the decorations that Seed Sprout Spoon provided added so much to the ambience of the reception- the space felt elegant and formal, but simultaneously rustic and cozy. Lastly, Erin and the other staff who were on location during our wedding were just a joy to be around. They performed admirably in what I would think would be a very stressful environment for caterers- a small space with kids and multiple dogs- and were so friendly and wonderful while still managing to give us space for our intimate event. We will absolutely be hiring them again for any other events we have in Saint Louis!

ked with us to create an eclectic menu that served the needs of our large and diverse wedding party. Our guests were raving about the food afterwards. Additionally, Erin and her team created a beautiful table-scape for us with vintage plates, goblets, linens, and greenery. We appreciated their willingness to work with us to make the day very special. Thank you Seed Sprout Spoon for being awesome! We now like to visit for Sunday brunch to remember how good the food is. C+P

but they styled their food stations so perfectly and it very much fit our venue/vision. Their attention to detail is unmatched. Their professionalism and ease to work with is such a welcomed characteristic in the crazy stressful wedding planning moments. Also, Erin's passion and kindness tops it all off to make it very much worth it all.

he SSS staff were great to work with, and were very thoughtful as we designed the menu to ensure that we were only serving food that would travel well to our wedding venue, which was about 1 hour away. Their catering space hosts a brunch on Sundays, which is a great way to get to know their style, and taste first-hand how talented their chefs are!

Delicious. My guests raved about it! Locally sourced and fresh and presented beautifully. Our cake was insanely good. We could go on and on... The decor: Seed Sprout Spoon turns an appetizer station and a buffet into artwork. Seriously everything has the most beautiful touches. Our reception venue was transformed into an eclectic fairy tale. We’ll never get over how beautiful it was. Additionally, the table decor is reasonably priced. The coordination: Erin was so responsive and so flexible. She took our rather complicated vision and made it work seamlessly. We were worry free the day of our wedding because we knew Erin had everything under control. We could rave on forever about Seed Sprout Spoon. We definitely will continue to recommend this caterer and are forever grateful we stumbled upon them.

tal in helping me put together a great menu that was able to cater to all of our guests (we had a few vegans and celiacs). The menu was very successful: our guests raved about the food, specifically the chocolate-beet cupcakes, and almost everyone went back for seconds. Seed Sprout Spoon had no problem working with the non-traditional space and the spread ended up being absolutely beautiful. We didn’t have to worry about anything, and they were able to clean up and leave the venue without any input from us. I would definitely choose them again to cater any event.

the first and only call I made! Her food is mouthwatering and unbelievable, her space is eclectic and intimate; it was the perfect place for our rehearsal dinner. Their space is perfect for small gatherings and their food is perfection for any event. I can’t say enough good things about Erin and Seed Sprout Spoon, but I recommend EVERYONE to go, visit, and eat some amazing local STL food.

our expectations. Their set-up is stunning and added to our overall decor, and their service and quality is superior to even that! Our guests are still talking about the food, which is exactly what we hoped for. Erin and her staff are incredibly responsive and will do everything they can to meet budgets and vision! We also had Seed Sprout Spoon cater a rehearsal brunch in Tower Grove Park, and that was also incredible. I can't recommend them highly enough!

now you are getting the best ingredients. We loved the variety of flavors and tastes that were offered to us and moreover, having a wedding meal that reflected our values of locally sourced products and creative presentations. The food was incredibly delicious and plentiful for the eyes and mouth! We could not have asked for anything better to help make our wedding day extremely special, thank you. I highly recommend them for any event!

ns and helped take our vision and turn it into a reality (and at a really reasonable cost too, for 150 guests). We knew Seed Sprout Spoon was going to be our pick as soon as we had our consultation meeting with a couple drinks and, like, a really nice charcuterie plate at their brick and mortar location. They're super detailed oriented, from the vintage china to the linen recommendations, and Erin is so chill and accommodating, which is exactly what I needed as an anxious bride. HIGHLY recommend!

ll of the details we didn't even think of - i.e. timing of the meal (vegetables, meats that would be in-season), color coordination for linens, and suggestions for creating a casual seating arrangement suited for elderly guests. Seed Sprout Spoon's wide variety of entrees and appetizers also made it easy to customize to our own menu to our liking. We chose an Italian-theme custom pasta line since we love making our own pasta and got engaged in Italy. Our guests raved about the food and the stunning - yet elegant and simple - arrangements Seed Sprout Spoon created. Their expertise and personal relationship with our venue made for a spectacular, unforgettable event. Thank you Seed Sprout Spoon for catering our wedding reception! Our guests were very happy, as were we :)

s and glassware for the table settings and it gave our rehearsal that perfectly chic, mismatched stylish vintagey dinner party feel. SO happy we went with Seed Sprout Spoon!!

so easy to work with and created a fabulous menu for the evening, which satisfied my goal to have an upscale event. In addition to her amazing appetizers, Erin rounded out the dinner menu with a gorgeous salad, mac and cheese and corn muffins. It turned simple barbecue into a glamorous evening and I was so pleased with how everything came out. She even made lovely signature cocktails to complete the bar. The food was delicious, the styling was perfect, and the cakes were gorgeous! Seed Sprout & Spoon was such a great choice for our event. A million thank you’s to Erin and her team!

and the Seed Sprout Spoon team were absolutely a delight to work with- from consultation, to tasting, to realization they listened and "got" what we wanted to accomplish. We had wanted a fun, vintage, whimsical, but elegant affair and they delivered effortlessly, even including rose gold dinosaurs in their bar decor (a design element I had mentioned early on!) which fit in perfectly with the rest of the event. Everyone raved about the food and the bar service - and when it turned out that I was coming down from my nerves too much to be able to eat much of anything, staff boxed up my food so that I could enjoy it later that night. Staff were professional and kind and we would absolutely recommend Seed Sprout Spoon to everyone!

notch! Everyone spoke about how great the food was. The place is quaint and pretty. The food is inventive and different enough to stand out without compromising great flavors and tastes. Thank you Erin and staff for helping our rehearsal dinner for my son and new daughter-in-law a memorable experience!

nd I felt went above and beyond to make our guests feel at home at our reception. One server even observed that one of the children looked sad after her ice cream had accidentally been cleaned up and proceeded to get all of the ice cream bar toppings back out for her to make a new one after it had been put away. We highly recommend Seed Sprout Spoon.

ients and environmentally sustainable products like compostable bamboo plates. We decided to use SSS for our rehearsal dinner, which we held at my dad's house. Our whole wedding was invited to the event, so we had about 100 people. Erin met me at my dad's house and helped me create a custom menu for our event. We chose the Grand South Grand station with a few other salads and appetizers added. On the night of the event, the staff from SSS were friendly, helpful, efficient, and left the place cleaner than when they got there. We opted to provide our own beverages, but the staff cleared glasses and bottles throughout the evening. The set up was beautiful, and they brought many of their own decorative dishes and plants to match the decor in our home. Most importantly, the food was amazing. We had vegans, vegetarians, gluten-free, and meat-lovers, and everyone was raving about how good the food was. I highly recommend Erin and her team!
