Sugarsnap catered our wedding on June 15th, 2024 and we had an excellent experience with them. The food was delicious and our guests loved it. We enjoyed the process of doing a tasting and making a customized menu. Communication was clear and easy. Sam worked with us to tailor the menu and arrangement to our needs. Thank you Sugarsnap!
There are not enough words to adequately describe how incredible Sugarsnap Catering is. My husband and I are massive foodies and knew when planning our wedding that delicious, unforgettable food was a top priority for us. When we booked our wedding at The Barn at Smugglers' Notch and found out they were the exclusive caterer, this made us nervous, because you never know what you are going to get - but with all the fantastic reviews - we decided to trust and take a leap of faith. From the beginning, they communicated every step of the way. We were particularly impressed at our tasting. While many of our other friends had booked with caterers' who had them trying dishes amongst a sea of other couples "wedding factory" style, Sugarsnap had a completely private and intimate tasting set up for us in a truly beautiful location. The dishes were not only tasty, but they were prepared with local, fresh ingredients and well presented. We were able to provide our feedback in real time and even pick elements that we enjoyed from different dishes to customize dishes for our big day. The day of our wedding, things ran like clockwork and the food honestly tasted even better than we remembered. Guests (including some self proclaimed food snobs) were coming up to us regularly and raving about the food. Sam Kilhullen is a top notch professional at what she does and we highly recommend Sugar Snap Catering.
Sugarsnap was the exclusive catering partner with our chosen vendor, and we can see why! The food was out of this world good. Everyone at our wedding raved about how delicious it was. Not only that, Martin was so helpful and supportive every step of the way. He was honest and straightforward when we needed it, and accomodating where possible. All of the staff was fantastic and so professional. We had an amazing time at our wedding in very large part to the hard work of the Sugarsnap team.
Sugarsnap was great to work with. I didn't think we'd be able to afford them, to be honest, but they were very willing to work with us to get something within our budget. I literally almost cried when they sent us an initial estimate because I just didn't think it would be possible to get what we wanted from such a well-reviewed and professional catering company for a price we could afford -- but they made it happen. We actually ended up getting a lot more out of it than we even anticipated, and we got great feedback from our guests about how delicious the food was!
From the first bite to that last bite, the food from Sugersnap was sublime. The food was fresh and seasonal. The staff were accommodating and responsive. Multiple guests told us it was the best food they’ve had at a wedding, which is saying something. Loved every bite!
The food was absolutely delicious, and the service was amazing as well. We can't thank Kristen specifically enough for all of her help through everything!
I can’t recommend Sugarsnap enough, they were absolutely amazing! They were the only company I found who was willing to work with me to fit my budget, and we made a menu that I loved and was exactly what I was able to pay. The food was delicious and they took my guests’ dietary needs seriously. The people who work there were extremely kind and considerate throughout the whole night. They went above and beyond to make me and my fiancée comfortable—they even set up our soda bar for us that we provided ourselves and therefore figured we would have to set up ourselves. They saw my 91 year old grandfather trying to put away chairs at the end of the night and even stayed to help him, even though that was not at all expected or even part of their contracted services. They were just earnestly kind people who made our night run smoothly with delicious food and exceptional service.
We were nervous organizing our outdoor campground wedding during COVID (July 17 2021) , but Kristen and Sam heard every concern and thought and helped make our wedding flow. We had a blast and didn’t have to lift a finger—Sam’s day of coordination skills were amazing.
The food was delicious and Sam baked us some amazing pies for dessert that were a hit.
They were professional, adaptive, great to work with, and in advance really helped reassure us and make sure we had what we needed (without renting unnecessary things)
They even carried food up to the ceremony site for us to have time together and a bite to eat after the ceremony. The staff was great, as well—guests keep commenting on how great the caterers were.
We also had bar service from sugarsnap that was a hit!
Sugarsnap was great to work with and everyone raved about the delicious food! Everything was excellent and they even brought our bridal party some appetizers when we were taking pictures. They went above and beyond for us and the service was great. I highly recommend Sugarsnap for any catering needs!
Our caterers did not provide bar services so we were forced to hire another catering company just for bar services. When the pandemic hit, that company closed and we had to scramble to find another caterer for bar services. That’s where the incredible team at Sugarsnap, especially bartender Kristen Beaver, rode in and saved the wedding. They were prompt and professional. Kristen even went as far as to drive down to our venue three weeks prior to our wedding to meet my mother and I to do a wine tasting and brainstorm on the best ways to keep our guests safe! Not only that but Kristen was the primary bartender at our wedding and she went above and beyond, handwriting a bar menu, anticipating guest needs, helping to clear plates and glasses, and handing me my first glass of champagne when I entered at the end of cocktail hour. She was simply amazing!
Sugarsnap was a great fit for our wedding. They were very flexible and patient with me as I changed our catering needs a few times. They also were helpful setting up a tasting for when I was in town (live out of state). And the food was DELICIOUS! Staff working the night of the wedding were very attentive and friendly.
Sugarsnap was an incredible choice for catering and bar for our wedding weekend. We worked specifically with Kristen Beaver who was hands-down the best possible individual we could have ever hoped for to help coordinate our wedding day. From numerous e-mails and phone calls to accommodating multiple tastings due to my wife’s food allergies, Kristen was the ultimate professional and kept us at ease as we were planning the wedding ourselves from out of state.
Kristen also served as the coordinator and point person for all of our vendors throughout the day and took charge when needed, checking in with us only when necessary. She was kind, flexible, calming, and incredibly organized - leaving us feeling confident even when the weather forecasts changed by the second. It was looking doubtful that we’d be able to have the outdoor wedding ceremony we had always dreamed of, but Kristen suggested we wait out the weather, and sure enough, we were able to get married outside with a beautiful view of Lake Champlain and the Adirondack Mountains in the background.
In spite of all of the weather, Sugarsnap did a fantastic job moving our planned outdoor cocktail hour inside quickly and efficiently, wiped down the chairs several times after each downpour, and even brought in appetizers and drinks to our wedding party when our post-ceremony photo shoot was taking longer than expected. We opted for a family style meal and the food and service were outstanding. We received so many compliments on the food and bar service and guests are still talking about it today. We so wish we could go back and re-experience our day.
Thank you to Sugarsnap and Kristen for doing such an incredible job and making our wedding unforgettable!
My first impression with SugarSnap was not great – the coordinator had double-booked that day and forgot our meeting. However, the rest of my encounters with SugarSnap were wonderful! The food is absolutely incredible, the presentation is perfect, and the staff is delightful! The day of my wedding, Kristen and Jess took care of everything – I never had to check in, instead they checked in with us once and then our wedding party throughout the night. The venue was freezing but the staff was well prepared with jackets and gloves. Everyone raved about the food! I come from a family of mostly vegetarians and my husband is a meat and potatoes guy from the Midwest, and SugarSnap was able to cater to both tastes.
I highly recommend SugarSnap if you are looking for a farm-to-table style catering event. Even if you are not, the staff is so accommodating that they are capable of making anything happen!
We only had them deliver, but they were also very helpful in setup. The food was good and communication was easy from start to finish.
We used Sugarsnap for my daughter's wedding in August, and we could not have been more pleased. Our first meeting with Kristen was very helping in planning for our needs, and she was forthright in her recommendations of what was and was not important when discussing the wedding menu. Sugarsnap provided many options, from appetizers to the main meal. No problem meeting the special menu needs of any guest. Closer to the wedding, we met with Kristen at the venue. Once again, her suggestions made everything easier. On the wedding day, we couldn't have been happier with our menu choices, with the presentation, and with the Sugarsnap staff who set up, served and took down at the venue. Our guests raved about the food at the time and have continued to do so. You cannot go wrong with Sugarsnap!
Fantastic wedding caterer. Guests were raving about the BBQ buffet we served at our event on 9/8/18. Kristen was a super helpful and patient coordinator and held our hand through the entire process. The entire staff was friendly. We’re so glad we chose Sugarsnap! Most importantly the food was delicious -- from the passed apps to the dessert cupcakes, these guys are incredible. Book them!
Decent.
We worked with Sugarsnap for our wedding, and could not have been happier! Not only was the food and service excellent, but the expertise their team provided was incredibly helpful. Cynthia did an amazing job during set up and the day of, and was always professional, friendly, and calm. They also did a great job tailoring the menu towards our budget and vision. Thank you, Sugarsnap!
Abbey, the owner, worked with us from the beginning, which we really appreciated because we know we were a smaller wedding. Sugarsnap was the only caterer approved by our venue that could give us something more than burgers and hot dogs for our budget. We ordered from their lunch catering menu instead of their dinner menu to save money and everything was a hit. They managed it as a zero waste event, which I really appreciated. It was mostly the amount of care Abbey gave to our small event that blew me away. She responded to questions Big and small very fast and with Good suggestions. They're just all around good people serving great food.
I can't say enough about how amazing Sugar Snap is. They catered our May 2017 wedding at the Barn at Smuggs and it was phenomenal! They were a pleasure to work with and there food is so tasty. Not to mention the presentation of the food on the wedding day and professionalism of the staff was superb. A lot of brides say that they never eat at their wedding because they are so busy mingling, but I made a point to enjoy all the food because I knew just how incredible it was going to be. Book Sugar Snap! They are the best!
The SugarSnap staff was wonderful. Everything was set up and ready when we showed up for the reception. Emily was my contact and she was a pleasure to work with. Guests had wonderful things to say about the food. They made custom cupcakes for us which were beautiful! If I had to find one thing that could be improved, it would be that the rice pilaf was rather bland (but it was very flavorful at the tasting). Highly recommended.
Sugarsnap did the bar for our wedding and Jason was great. The cost was a bit higher than we had anticipated and the other bartender was slow - but the drinks were good. Plus they dressed for the occassion and always had a smile!!
Sugarsnap Catering is fantastic - we enjoyed working with their wonderful catering manager and professional staff. The food was unbelievable - we got countless compliments on the reception dinner and people are still mentioning it to us weeks later. We highly recommend Sugar Snap!!
