Hiring Seed Sprout Spoon to cater our wedding was one of the best decisions we made. We got married almost 6 months ago and people are still talking about the food. We've heard how it was "the best food I've ever had at a wedding" countless times. Additionally, Erin was a delight to work with. She's the type of person who would do anything to make your wedding magical. We had a few guests with health and dietary issues, including alpha-gal which is very complicated, and they made these guests their own plates at no extra charge. They work with small, local farmers and food vendors to provide the best quality ingredients. In my opinion, good food is the best thank-you that you can give to your guests.

Our biggest priority for our wedding was for people to eat WELL, and WOW did Seed Sprout Spoon deliver! The charcuterie station during happy hour was an absolute work of art featuring 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!

When looking for a caterer for our wedding, we wanted three things: delicious food, memorable decor, and an excellent planning experience. Thank goodness, then, that we picked Seed 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!

Seed Sprout Spoon catered our wedding at Wild Carrot and did an AMAZING job!! We chose a buffet with two entrees, a salad, and two sides. We also got a dessert station in lieu of a 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!!

The food was super tasty. They can accommodate all types of dietary restrictions. I went with the buffet which comes with two entree choices. I knew most of my guest wanted meat but 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!

Everything was amazing! They style of the tables (we did buffet) were beautiful. We rented old plates and pink goblets from them and it fit perfectly in our theme. Presentation was 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!

Hands down the best wedding food I've ever had and the best set-up for a buffet that I've ever seen. Everything was so unique and personalized based on my "vision." Erin was so great 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!

Our family and friends could not stop talking about the food! We did three stations, Pasta (the hill), tacos (Cherokee), barbecue (Morganford) and they were all amazing. We also did 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!

Our venue highly recommended SSS and they did not disappoint! The food was amazing and our guests had so many compliments. We went with food stations, which out guests loved. SSS even 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!

We had chosen Seed Sprout Spoon very early in the process of wedding planning based on a strong desire to have a vegetarian friendly menu. They were one of the caterers that rose to 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.

Working with Seed Sprout Spoon was a treat, and the food was DELICIOUS! We had vegetarian passed hors d'oeuvres and a family-style vegetarian meal at our wedding. Our guests raved 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.

We chose our wedding date based on when Seed Sprout Spoon was available to cater, and our venue based on where they were on the list of approved caterers. As a couple that cares greatly 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.

Seed Sprout Spoon was recommended to us by our reception venue and had a variety of locally-sourced options, which was attractive to us, as we really wanted our wedding to celebrate 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.

From start to finish, Erin & SSS was an absolute dream of a company to hire to cater our wedding. They were punctual, professional and most importantly, NAILED the execution. I was 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.

Wow what a spread! We absolutely loved the finished product that Erin and her team delivered. The style of SSS is wholly unique and beautiful. They put so much effort into the presentation 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.

Seed Sprout Spoon did a wonderful job at our 9/5/2021 wedding at Lost Hill Lake Events. The food was delicious; their staff was outstanding. They took the time to talk with us about 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.

Hire this team.
From the moment we met Erin and began discussing our wedding, we felt so taken care of. In fact, because we were a COVID couple replanning things for what felt like 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.

What an AMAZING company, and Erin was absolutely wonderful to work with. My husband and I wanted to choose a vendor that was environmentally-conscious and provided farm-to-table, locally 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!

Erin and Brendan made our wedding, which ended up being a stripped down elopement, incredibly special and memorable. Erin was considerate and understanding through our entire planning 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.

If you are looking for someone to cater hot, boxed meals during this time of COVID19, I can highly recommend Seed Sprout Spoon. Erin Wiles was fantastic in her communication in setting 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!

Erin and the Seed Sprout Spoon team are amazing and the food is SO delicious! Erin was truly was a steady source of support and comfort as we navigated planning a intimate wedding 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!

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!

Seed Sprout Spoon was the absolute perfect fit for my husband and I for our wedding! We are both from a culinary background and wanted to create a shared dining experience at our wedding 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!

I had been waiting to write this review about Erin and Seed Sprout Spoon until we received our photos, because I wanted to be reminded JUST how absolutely beautiful it was. We did 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.

Seed Sprout Spoon catered our wedding at they also hosted our rehearsal dinner. First of all, I have to say that Erin is incredible. She is so responsive and the ultimate chef and 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!!!

We hired Erin and the staff at Seed Sprout Spoon to cater our wedding, and we could not have been happier with how things turned out. The food was incredible- multiple guests said 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!

Seed Sprout Spoon did an amazing job preparing the food for our wedding. They made adjustments for us following our tasting and executed the day of the wedding flawlessly. They worked 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.

I can't thank Erin and Seed Sprout Spoon enough for catering our wedding at Wild Carrot. Their food was so delicious and all of our guests were just raving about it. Not only that, 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.

We used Seed Sprout Spoon for our wedding in May 2019 and recommend them enthusiastically! The food was truly delicious, perfectly prepared, and absolutely beautifully displayed. The 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!

Erin and the Seed Sprout Spoon staff were the catering team of our DREAMS. Erin not only provided food but supplied decorations and event coordination for our reception.
The food: 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.

We hired Seed Sprout Spoon to cater our welcome dinner at Side Project and they did an excellent job. Erin was extremely communicative during the planning process and was instrumental 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.

My Mother-In-Law put me in charge of the rehearsal dinner and Erin was 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.

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!

Seed, Sprout, & Spoon did a wonderful job at catering our elopement and customizing a menu to fit our vision of the day! The Seed, Sprout, & Spoon concept is farm to table so you know 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.

Erin at Seed Sprout Spoon was such a pleasure to work with! She catered our March wedding, and was so easy to reach out to with questions and updates. She made some great suggestions 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!

Seed Sprout Spoon did a wonderful job catering our wedding reception at Third Degree Glass factory. Erin was especially helpful during the planning process and guided us through all 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 :)

My daughter had her heart set on serving BBQ as the main course for her wedding and agreed to hire Seed Sprout Spoon to fill in with appetizers and prepare the desserts. Erin was 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!

We initially chose Seed Sprout Spoon because their business model aligns with our values - sustainable, local, and zero-waste were all important factors in choosing a caterer. Erin 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!

I cannot say more about how wonderful Erin and her crew are to work with! Not only did they ensure our large group rehearsal dinner went smoothly, but the service and food was top 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!

Erin fantastic at helping us put together a menu for tasting stations at our wedding. The food was amazing and we received countless compliments. The staff was incredibly helpful and 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.

Seed Sprout Spoon came recommended to us after my husband and I were blown away by her food at another wedding. We were also drawn to her commitment to using local, seasonal ingredients 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!

We knew we wanted to work with Erin as soon as we met her in her quirky little restaurant on Morganford for Sunday brunch. Food and presentation were spot on. My husband who spent two decades in the restaurant business was delighted with her inventiveness, creativity, and professionalism. All of our wedding guests raved about the food. She managed to make vegans and non-vegans happy. We would hire her again in a heartbeat! We look forward to eat brunch in her restaurant every time we visit family in STL.

Seed Sprout Spoon was so so so good! Erin was a breeze to work with, from picking out the menu to tastings to decor, she knew exactly how to best tackle what we needed and was so helpful guiding us through it and staying flexible with any changes. Everything tasted and looked great in the end! We loved all the unique options and vintage decor too!

My wife and I were so happy to have Seed Sprout Spoon cater our wedding. Erin was incredibly kind and professional throughout the process. She set up a lovely sampling while we were deciding between caterers and a great evening with our families to taste everything we had selected. The menu options are unique, perfect for a couple that wants something a bit more personalized and local. And there were a lot of vegetarian/vegan options.
The food was excellent—everyone said so. I only wish my wife and I had had more time to eat it all! And what's more, Erin and her team set up everything beautifully on the day-of with great decorations and platings. I recommend Seed Sprout Spoon 1000%.

Erin and her team were absolutely incredible. They were able to serve a plated meal in a venue that had no kitchen and minimal prep space. Working with Seed Sprout Spoon was completely stress free. It was a truly incredible feeling to arrive at our reception and be able to relax knowing they had everything under control. We contacted several catering companies early in our planning process and we knew as soon as we met Erin that Seed Sprout Spoon was absolutely perfect for us.

Working with Seed Sprout Spoon throughout the wedding planning process was one of my husband and I's favorite things. It was so easy and everything they did from the trial, to the tasting, to the wedding day was beautifully done and seriously so, so delicious. We had family style brunch for dinner (french toast, eggs, bacon etc.), scones and muffins for apps, and cookies for dessert and I have never heard so many people talk about how much they loved the food at a wedding! Erin and their staff made the event so beautiful and worked hard to make the day of the wedding run smoothly! Picking Seed Sprout Spoon was such an easy decision, they genuinely are the best!

Seed Sprout Spoon and Erin are absolutely amazing, creative, and complete professionals. We were married at the Butterfly House and Seed Sprout Spoon is one of the approved caterers, but honestly we would have chosen them no matter the venue. They have not only impeccable style but more importantly impeccable food. We knew from the tasting that this would be the best wedding food anyone has experienced, and we were right. Everyone has had that sad chicken breast at a wedding. Although we had been telling our guests for months how excited we were about the food, no one really fully believed us until they experienced it themselves, and now they won’t stop raving about it. It really is the best food ever, local, seasonal ingredients with the highest amount of attention to flavor. We chose the vegetable tagine, brisket, and STL style pork steak as entrees, and they were all amazing. We also had passed appetizers (chicken satay, jalapeño cornbread, and chorizo tacos)—also amazing. Erin also designed for us an amazing welcome cocktail and did our wedding cake (almond cake with champagne frosting). Best tasting wedding cake we have ever had. The service during our wedding day was amazing, everything came out hot, tasting amazing, in synchrony. Everyone was incredibly friendly and happy. Our guests also especially loved Griffin the bartender and continue to compliment him.
Erin has been incredibly easy to work with the whole time, giving us suggestions on what items would pair well together from start to finish. She also designed all of our centerpieces which was the best decision ever. Each table was different but complementary, and individually they were all gorgeous and fit the overall “look” we wanted for our wedding: romantic and casually elegant. The wedding cake she designed was also gorgeous: simple with pink and purple flowers to match our colors. It was so seamless that people thought she was a professional florist (I had a florist do flowers for wedding party only due to our budget).
We are so glad that we chose Seed Sprout Spoon. They are also the only company that we know of that strives to be zero waste and composts. Not only do they visually cater to an earthy, romantic style, but they also have a company-wide morality which we really appreciate. We will always remember their amazing food and kindness and wish we could teleport back to our wedding day and do it all over again. Thank you, Erin, from the bottom of our hearts for crafting a gorgeous vision that we won’t forget. Thank you, Seed Sprout Spoon! Book them!

Beautiful, delicious, and responsible! Seed Sprout Spoon is all that and so much more! When I got engaged, besides finding the perfect venue, the most important piece that I wanted to nail down was the food. For my wife and I, where our food comes from matters--locally sourced, humanely raised, and seasonal were a non-negotiable when it came to feeding 100 people. While Seed Sprout Spoon absolutely delivers in that regard, the food and the presentation is so beautiful. Even better, the food tastes as good as it looks. There is so much love from the sourcing to the serving, and it shows. We were so proud to bring our foodie friends and family to St. Louis, from Los Angeles and Seattle, and have them enjoy some of the best food (especially wedding food) they'd had! In addition to appetizers, and dinner, we got our cake, as well other made-from-scratch desserts from SSS; not surprisingly, they were delicious and BEAUTIFUL. Our guests loved everything served, and so did we!
In addition, I had the pleasure of working with Erin Wiles (owner & operator) in the planning and coordinating capacity for my wedding. This woman knows what she is doing, and is really good at it! She helped me organize all of the details from linen colors, to table placement, to the timeline, to flower choices, and of course the food; what to serve, how to serve it and when. Erin followed through consistently, and did not miss a beat. On my wedding day, my partner and I did not have to worry about a thing, or lift a finger beyond getting dressed and enjoying our happiest day.
Seed Sprout Spoon is a shining example of what food should look and taste like, what catering should look and feel like, and what taking pride in one's business and the product that they offer should look like. We are so grateful to have had the opportunity to work with Seed Sprout Spoon!

One of the best decisions I made for my August wedding was choosing Seed, Sprout, Spoon for my caterer and my wedding cake/desserts. Erin and her team were amazing and so so helpful. They truly went above and beyond to help make my day perfect. The food is truly delicious and they had some unbelievable vegetarian options. Our cake and dessert table was so delicious and she was able to make it so special. Erin has such an amazing eye for decor and made the appetizer stations and the buffet look like it was from a magazine! She was able to take my vision and make it a reality! She had great ideas and was willing to work with us and our logistic challenges. I highly recommend Erin and her team (especially Griffin) for any of your event needs!

Can not begin to say enough positive remarks about Seed Sprout Spoon! They went above and beyond for our big day! Working with Erin was such a treat. She was always accessible, more than willing and able to work with several food allergies and provided us such a wide variety of delicious items to choose from for our special occasion. From the menu options, to the tasting and leading up to the reception, everything was absolutely delicious! The love and heart they put into each of the beautiful dishes was truly palpable. Farm to table truly meant a lot to myself and my husband, we wanted to provide our guests a nutritious but yet very tasty meal at a very reasonable price for the quality Seed Sprout Spoon provided. We had endless positive compliments and would work with them again in a heartbeat! Truly worth it! You will not find a better team, a better leader, better quality with such large portions! They truly have something for every palate and if you choose Seed Sprout Spoon, I guarantee you will not be disappointed! Thank you Erin and team, you all truly are talented and it was such a pleasure!

Erin was absolutely wonderful to work with! She was able to accommodate me being a vegetarian and my carnivore, vegetable hating husband. The food was displayed with such charm and matched our vintage-vibe so well. I have nothing but wonderful things to say! They even packaged up all of our leftovers to send home.

Erin and the crew at SS&S we're wonderful! Erin took our event on last minute, but did not let that effect her performance. She was professional, patient, and caring. She led us through the process of picking everything out, and was a rockstar at delivering what she promised on the big day. SS&S provided us with a beautiful display of fresh and delicious food. Thank you again for all of your hard work!!!
