Taylor Made Catering made our wedding even better! They are super easy to work with and provided us with so many different options to sample! The day of our wedding they made sure as the bride and groom we had food given to us at our head table before everyone went to our buffet and made sure that we were taken care of in terms of food and drinks all night. They also helped and cleaned up all our tables as the night went on, so it made cleaning up after so much smoother!
I would 100% use them again and recommend them to anyone!

Kristan and her team are incredible. We had tasted their food at another wedding we had attended and when it came time to plan my daughter's wedding we knew just who we wanted to hire. They were very responsive anytime I had a question, very professional and set up beautifully. Every item of food was delicious and our guests raved about how wonderful the food was. I would recommend that you consider them for your special event, I assure you that you will not be disappointed.

Taylor Made has always impressed us. We had to move our tasting around a couple of times, but Woody and Kirstan were very accommodating to me and my family’s needs. They valued our business and showed us that in multiple ways. And on top of that their food is always amazing & staff very cordial. We will always recommend them!

We couldn't have hired a better caterer. TaylorMade Catering was professional from start to finish and we are so thankful to have chosen them. We had the chicken cordon bleu as our main entree, and not only did it get rave reviews at the wedding, but I am still eating those leftovers for lunch and it is wonderful every time. Such kind and friendly people, that alone sold us for this choosing this company.

What a fabulous company to have for a big event like a wedding!! We met them at the KC Engaged Wedding Show and we knew they were the ones to work with as soon as we tried their foods. Even though there had been a miscommunication about a bartender, everything worked out in the end. Kirstan was so kind and made the planning process that much easier. We loved the staff who worked the day-of, and I'm so glad we were able to eat such incredible food! All of our guests had wonderful things to say about it too!

One of our favorite vendors that we hired recently for our daughter’s wedding!! Tastings were easy to arrange and helped us be confident in the menu choices we made. Day of service was excellent too! Taylor Made staff arrived right on time, communicated options for set up, and did an overall great job!! One of the best parts was that bride/groom were served vs having to go through the buffet line. We will definitely think of Taylor Made for future catering needs!!

Taylor Made catering review
Working with Taylor Made catering was so wonderful experience!! They responded to our initial email so quickly and helped us put together a great menu for a big surprise birthday party at our house. They were personable, got everything set up nicely, packed all the leftovers up for us and cleaned up the entire kitchen. We were able to enjoy the party and didn’t have to worry about the food, drinks or the clean up at all! They had it all taken care of! I HIGHLY recommend them for any catering event.

Taylor Made was a pleasure to work with! We had had their catering a couple of times over the years and were really excited to have a good reputable local company that we knew would mail it provide our dinner. The food was delicious and the service and attention to detail were amazing. We didn’t have to worry a thing about food or catering the entire night, and it was delicious. 10/10 recommend for an elegant event down to a BBQ tailgate- they knock it out of the park every time!

Their whole team worked hard to make sure everything ran smoothly the day of and everyone was soooo nice. The food was amazing and we received multiple compliments from guests with full belly's. Not to mention, we got to eat the yummy leftovers for a solid 4 days afterwards!
We would definitely recommend them to anyone looking for a wedding caterer- they are a joy to work with and it felt good supporting this father daughter business comprised of individuals who are so obviously passionate about what they do :)

From start to finish, Taylor Made was easy to reach and a great choice for us for our wedding. The food was fantastic and with the initial trial meal, it truly was hard to make a decision because they have so many great options. Communication was always great which was helpful being an out of town bride. The day of they were running about 10 minutes late, but were in contact with my coordinator and nothing was delayed for us at all, including appetizers. For the bride when planning and using any caterer, the only thing I suggest is that if you have people that have hearty appetites, count for a few more people. We didn't have any leftovers which is good but there were some people enjoying the meal so much they went back for seconds or thirds before some went through once.

Taylor Made Catering was my favorite vendor of my entire wedding! Where do I even begin. The food selections and variety they offer is fantastic. We decided on garlic chicken, pulled brisket, cheesy twice baked potatoes, Mac and cheese and green beans. All were exceptional and the guest loved it as well. The venue owners even raved at how prompt, professional and friendly the staff was to work with. We didn’t even have to go get our plates, the staff had plates made for us! I can not thank Taylor Made enough for being all that I wanted and more in a cater for my big day.

Folks, if you're looking for A+ quality and service in your caterer - look no further! We were referred to Taylor Made Catering by our wedding coordinator who had worked with them several times previously. Lucky for us, they had another wedding cancel for our date and we booked them right away. There were ample packages and food options on the menu, which were still very customizable) and the customer service was top notch!
We booked prior to tasting anything based on personal references we knew we could trust just so we could lock in a good thing before it was booked elsewhere. However, we were promised we could taste test anything we needed prior to the wedding. The only thing we wanted to test were the two beef options we were torn between to figure out the final selection so I booked a tasting. They do tastings "carry out style" where you just swing in on your reserved date/time and pick it up to go. The location was near my (now) husband so I asked him to swing in and pick it up, expecting just a couple meat samples. The owner went above and beyond surprising us with not only those meat options, but ALL of the sides and other entrees we had selected for our menu with enough of each helping to feed a LARGE family. He was extremely personable at pick-up and offered more options for customizing as well as several options for tableware should we need it.
When it came to the day of the wedding, delivery was timely and professional. Our buffet was set up and maintained by their staff. Aside of just setting it up and making sure it was kept warm, I saw the staff member interacting with guests and cleaning up plates when they were finished. Additionally, they packaged up all the extra food at the end of the evening for us to keep. Guests raved about the food and everyone's favorite dish was the twice-baked potato casserole. It's an absolute must!
Overall, we could not have asked for a better experience with this vendor and that means everything when it's your big day with so many moving pieces. This is a company you can trust to do what they are hired to do, and do it well.

Taylor Made provided our guests with appetizers during cocktail hour, a delicious and efficient buffet style dinner for 300 guests, a plated meal for my husband and I, and provided bartending service for the entire party! Any question or concern I had throughout the process was answered with, "We can make that work and would love to do that for you!" Woody himself worked with closely with us throughout the process.

We are so happy we hired Taylor Made Catering for our wedding reception and cocktail hour! We had appetizers, two entrees, and two sides for a great price. They served my husband and I which was a nice touch. The food was delicious - everyone loved it. The only reason I hesitate to give 5 stars is that we requested one vegan meal from the beginning for our officiant, and double checked before the wedding. That meal never showed up, so our officiant went without food at the reception, which was a stressor. However, when I reached out to Taylor Made after the wedding, they explained how the mistake happened and were gracious about it. I would still highly recommend hiring Taylor Made. Kirstan was so helpful during our planning process (especially helpful as we didn't know what we were doing!). Bottom line - the food was amazing, the price was great, and the service was fantastic.

Absolutely amazing food and service for my daughters wedding. From the planning to the food tasting to the wedding Woody and Kirsten were awesome. Our dinner was on the second floor of our venue and we had over 300 guests and their set up was perfect and during the meal it flowed very very smooth. We received so many compliments…too many to count. The 7 staff were all upbeat, fun and very helpful. We had BBQ, Italian and Mexican. One staff even walked thru one of three serving sites with my niece as she held her nephew. If you have not decided who to use for your event stop looking and book Taylor Made Catering.

I highly recommend using TMC – and when you do use them you have to get their cheesy potatoes, chicken with chardonnay sauce – you can thank me later! Lol They communicated well with us through out the process. Woody and Kirstan Woodward were easy to work with and understanding throughout the process as we booked them in early 2020. Their prices are fantastic and the quality and care of their food is second to none!

Summer 2021. Very easy to work with. Super flexible, especially in the midst of COVID uncertainties. Food was amazing (our guests agreed!). The salmon with the white sauce (don't remember what it was) was particularly good. I would say the weak spot in our Taylor Made experience was the bartending; it was adequate, but I would probably only give that specific part of the service 2.5 stars.

We hired Taylor Made to cater our wedding. The tasting before we hired them was a full meal, which was a great surprise. They set up a wonderful taco bar that our guests raved about, and were kind enough to put up a donut wall with donuts we bought from another place. All of their staff were friendly, responsive, and made everything a breeze! We'd happily hire them again!

The whole staff was very friendly and accommodating to our wants and needs.
From the time we first talked on the phone to the unbelievable tasting , answering any questions, and catering the meal .

Would recommend Talor Made Catering highly.
Thank you Taylor Made.

We used TaylorMade Catering for our wedding on September 24th, and they blew us away. The blackened salmon and tri tip were cooked perfectly, and the cheesy potatoes were a HUGE hit with our guests! They showed up to our venue right on time, set up, tore down, and were out of the venue without a single trace. Very professional.
We were very grateful to work with Woody and his daughter Kirstan. A family business through and through! Very, very pleased with their performance!

Taylor Made was 100% worth it for my wedding dinner and appetizers. Communicating the details with them was easy. I received tons of compliments on the quality and taste of the food. The team present at the reception did a fantastic job of serving guests and making sure my wife and I had what we need. I cannot recommend them enough!

From the get-go, Taylor Made made it their mission to give us the menu of our dreams. We had our initial tasting with them (and had leftovers for about 3 days- they don't mess around on portions!) and we instantly were amazed at the hospitality and detail that they put into our menu! They let us try menu items we didn't even think of, knowing that they would pair well with other items we were wanting. After signing with Taylor Made and a little later into the planning process, we had a hiccup with our dessert vendor, and they instantly offered to help us out and find a dessert solution even though that wasn't what we originally had planned. Taylor Made's hospitality was wonderful the day of the wedding and everything went so smoothly. Our guests still talk about the yummy pasta we had :) Thank you for everything, Taylor Made!!

My daughters wedding was 7/3/21 and this was the best wedding catering we've ever had! Not only was the food delicious, but when a vegetarian showed up in the crowd, they made a special off menu meal just for them!! Everything was fantastic. We had the Tri-Tip, Chicken, Salmon with mac n cheese, potatoes and veggies

There is not enough great things I can say about Taylor Made Catering!! Kirstan made the entire process so seamless and she was amazing at communication (trust me, after other vendors-she was a dream). She always answered my questions in a timely manner and was always so sweet. They made sure my husband and I were well taken care of and had plenty of food/drinks at all times! THE FOOD WAS TO DIE FOR. We have a bunch of leftovers that we will be freezing and eating for months! Thank you again TMC + team for your

I got married in February 2021. Truly the best catering service you will ever find. The entire team was so helpful and kind, and their food is absolutely amazing. Kirstan was such a big help before and during my wedding. You also get to take home your leftovers, which we will be eating for a month!

Taylor-Made totally "made" our reception. We have had some guests tell us they stayed twice as long as they would have because of the epic mountain of bacon-wrapped chicken bites (highly recommended). Chef Woody was flexible, laid-back, professional, and super easy to work with, which really made a difference when having a wedding during a pandemic. Prices were super reasonable and he even threw in some freebies. Everyone was impressed with the food and my only regret is that I didn't bring giant tupperwares to pack our newlywed freezer with the leftovers #protip :)

Woody at Taylor Made Catering is THE best! From the first time we met him at our food tasting to the time we picked up our leftovers from our wedding reception, this wonderful human is like an old friend! You will not be disappointed with their service, quality of food, and level of safety in protecting your guests. We have not even finished the leftovers and already know we are ordering more of Woody's special meatballs! Thank you Woody & Kirstan, your friends Jill and Joe Sumner
