we have been in the wedding catering business for over twenty five years. we take great pride in the taste and presentation of the food that we provide. We are constantly looking and trying new ideas to keep us fresh and up to date . Terri and I love to meet the couples and hear what they envision for their wedding day, so that we can prepare they have been dreaming it would be.

Southern Accent invited us to come for a tasting before signing a contract and the food samples were delicious. They catered our daughter's wedding on March 11, 2023 and the food w...

as hot and tasty and we received many compliments on the menu. We provided the caterer containers to store any leftovers and they stored them in the refrigerator for us to take home afterwards. We also had a Fruit and Cheese Tower for the cocktail hour and it was arranged beautifully and once again we had many compliments. Thank you so much Southern Accent!

We hired them for a wedding, they took the food away as soon as everyone went through once. They did not let us know when they were taking down and took the food with them instead ...

of leaving it with us. The next morning when we noticed they hadn’t put the left overs in the fridge we called and they offered for us to pick them up but would be another 2 hr drive. I would not recommend this catering company.

We had a wedding last night 10/15/2022 at the Chrisman Manor Venue and the catering service was absolutely horrible!!! The wife was extremely rude and she showed up wearing a white...

tshirt and jeans to a black tie wedding affair. We tried to talk to her three different times about three different things and she refused to help us. She kept telling us to talk to her husband… The absolute worst part was they set up the food and served it then took it down without giving anyone notice or last call on food and THEY TOOK ALL THE LEFT OVER FOOD WITH THEM!! We paid for the food and any food left over should have been left for guests who stayed late for the reception. Or it was ours to take home. We had a full pan of pork tenderloin, a pan of chicken breast, a pan of mash potatoes and a full pan of salad and they took it all with them. Absolute worst service and I would not recommend them to anyone.

th them when we were selecting who would cater for us and were blown away! We had 2 tastings afterwards from other caters, and none compared. At the reception we didn't even have a moment where we worried about anything running out. They even collected our plates and took out trash. They were phenomenal! Thank you again Southern Accent!

They were easy to work with and gave me options within my budget. One thing that was off putting was they started to pull table cloths from the buffet table while guest were still ...

going through the line for seconds and chips were thrown on the floor in the process, other than this I was very happy with them. The food was delicious!

Terri & Tyler are so good at what they do. They not only make amazing food, but we also learned how giving they are to our community. Our tasting appointment was so much fun, they ...

gave us several options and were quick to respond to any questions we had. They truly go above and beyond for their clients and make you feel like a part of the family. Did I already say how amazing the food was?? So many options, from Mexican to Italian, southern and more! They really cater to your specific needs and make it special for your day. Even their set up of the buffet was beautiful and matched our other decor perfectly.
