Southern harvest Catering Company

od! It stayed hot and delicious, people went back for seconds and thirds!

our event too. Lisa was awesome day of and ended the night with hugs and lots of laughs. We truly felt like she was just another family member!! Rachelle was easy to communicate with during the planning process and was very helpful in helping us create our menu and finalize details. I highly recommend Southern Harvest for event catering/bar service.

them to anyone who asked. If I could separately give them 5 stars, I would. 10/5 would hire them again. However, the wonderful food and staff were very nearly overshadowed by the absolute dental work that went into getting administration to communicate with us. Three months after we sent in our final menu choices, we hadn't heard anything. We consistently had to keep after Rachelle for any kind of timely response. Two weeks before the wedding, we still hadn't received our final contract, after multiple requests. We stayed ahead of the curve with deadlines, but what should have been a relatively simple process was somehow one of the largest sources of stress in the entire planning process, especially in the last weeks leading up to the wedding. On top of that, having paid for an open bar, we were very surprised that having barely been open an hour, the bar had already started to run out of options. Even worse, while they had our two signature cocktail choices, that was all they had in the way of mixed drink options, and refused to deviate from those two cocktail recipes. They would not even hear of playing with what little ingredients they had. The bartenders were friendly, and did their jobs with relative ease, but I wonder exactly what management told them, based on how the bar itself was run. At the very least, it should have been communicated clearly what Southern Harvest's definition of "open bar" was before we paid for it. That again, we lay at the feet of Rachelle. If their understanding of an open bar is so very limited, the people they are charging need to know, preferably before they get charged, and definitely before the day of the wedding, rather than several hours into it. Overall, if their communication was just a little more professional, and we had been less frustrated dealing with them, we might have been able to catch these issues beforehand, and been extremely happy with the services provided.

was- multiple people said the best food at a wedding ever and we've got some great photos of people eagerly lining up for seconds! The bartenders were super personable, professional, and kind, and I was touched when I noticed that they had even gone out of their way to remembered the preferred nonalcoholic drinks of our non-drinking friends and have one ready for them when someone ordered a round of drinks. The kindness and attention to detail was also evident in planning with Rachelle and Valerie- they were so incredibly helpful, answered all my questions, and were able to accommodate a bunch of last minute changes when we ended up postponing twice due to covid. We really appreciate this business and would highly recommend them! Great value as well!

cative and the serving and wait staff did an incredible job. We were so pleased with everything and couldn't have asked for anything better. We truly recommend Southern Harvest for anyone's special event.

sires for the wedding and was able to help us perfect a menu while still keeping our budget in mind. We originally were interested in having Q Shack cater the wedding, but once we contacted QS and found out Q Shack and SH are owned by the same company and we were able to blend what each offered to create our perfect menu, we were hooked. Every guest I talked to at the wedding loved the dinner and I wouldn't hesitate to work with this company again in the future!

a goat farm, but it went a lot deeper than that. We loved being around Tom and Lisa, and we felt like they were as excited about our wedding as we were! (Which, let's be honest, is pretty rare). They put so much love and effort into our wedding. We had multiple meetings and tastings with them to perfect our menu. They were easily available for any questions or calls. They came to our venue to figure out logistics closer to the wedding date. The food blew us and our guests away, and the presentation exceeded our expectations. The other staff were so helpful and friendly. Tom and Lisa were there on the wedding day too! Lisa checked in on us many times to see if we needed anything. They're not phoning it in, they really care, and we were so lucky to have them!

r wedding menu was perfectly tailored to our vision and budget. Tom arranged for us to attend MULTIPLE private tastings and was extremely helpful in offering up suggestions about what kinds of dishes/setup would work best for our venue and guest count. With his help, we selected a southern/local menu that guests absolutely RAVED about. On the day of the wedding, the entire Southern Harvest team treated my partner and I like royalty, frequently checking on us to make sure we had drinks and food and making sure that we were being completely taken care of. They even personally served us at the beginning of dinner so we wouldn’t have to go through the buffet line and packaged up to-go boxes for us so we’d have dinner for the next day. Several guests remarked on the Southern Harvest team’s warmth and hospitality, so I know our guests were also treated to an evening of amazing service. By choosing to work with Southern Harvest, we literally saved THOUSANDS of dollars (compared to what we would have spent if we had gone with one of the bigger catering companies in the triangle area), but the quality AND presentation of food, service, and professionalism could not have been topped. It was such an honor to have a catering team who made us feel so cared for and celebrated. Seriously, hire these folks! Our wedding day was made so special because we did!

customer service. Our guests very happy with the food and we were happy in the end.

hroughout. On the day of everything was set up and went smoothly and I got multiple compliments on how great the food from the Q Shack was.

we made changes, and was very flexible. The food was SO good! Multiple guests told us over the days after our wedding how much they enjoyed the food. The catering staff who worked our wedding were also great. They made sure my husband & I had a meal at our table, and were very attentive to every guest throughout the night.
