The Brussel: Custom Catering & Events

ngle thing we asked for. The food and service was absolutely top notch, everything was cooked perfectly and our guests were RAVING about their meals and dessert! For such a crucial aspect of a wedding, we couldn’t have been happier with our choice of the Brussel. We would 100% recommend them or any wedding or other catered event for that matter!

above and beyond in every way. Guests are still talking about how delicious the food was — especially the beautifully designed charcutier table and the flavorful entrées. What impressed us most was their professionalism and kindness. They handled every detail with care, anticipated needs before we even voiced them, and made the entire experience feel effortless. Emily custom created our dinner menu, carefully listening to all of our preferences and dietary needs. If you want a team that treats your wedding like it’s their own, this is the one. Truly exceptional.

ing feeling much better/comfortable about everything. Emily was very responsive with any questions we had, and was very accommodating to helping make our menu exactly what we wanted. Day-of the wedding they got everything set up in a timely manor and everything was DELICIOUS!

nything we imagined.  The food was incredible and fresh, the presentation was stunning, and every detail felt thoughtful and intentional. The Valentine’s-themed treats were such a special touch! They went above and beyond to accommodate our guests, which meant so much to us.  What truly set them apart was how effortlessly they worked alongside our other vendors. It felt like they had been producing events together for years — everything flowed, communication was smooth, and the entire evening felt easy.  The Brussel didn’t just cater our wedding — they helped define it. Our guests are still talking about the food… and so are we!!!

d the food was DELICIOUS! Really 10/10. They tailored our order to exactly what we wanted - a fall-themed menu. We had turkey cranberry sliders to start, among other things, and even an apple cider donut bar to end the night. When they say custom catering, that is really true. The Brussel will make whatever you ask for! I highly recommend Emily and her team - the service was seamless and everything went so well. They even had the cutest vintage china setup for the plated meal!

onal staff. Our meal choices were lavender fried chicken, maple glazed salmon and ribeye. The ribeye was what you would expect for a wedding steak. I wish we went with the prime rib which was at our tasting, that was really good. But the chicken and salmon were amazing! Would highly recommend the lobster roll appetizers! Also, amazing. Would absolutely choose them again!

fessional, proactive and such a joy to work alongside. The food not only tastes incredible but is always presented beautifully, which makes such a difference at weddings. I will continue recommending The Brussel to my couples without hesitation and can’t wait for the chance to collaborate even more in the future!

l effortless and worked with us to create safe food options for all our guests. The final detail meeting left us feeling so confident and cared for and we're especially grateful for how they went above and beyond with our special dessert request. Our wedding day was flawless thanks to their smooth, excellent service and the food was absolutely incredible! We felt so supported and could just focus on celebrating with our loved ones. If you're looking for caterers who will treat your special day with the love and attention it deserves, we wholeheartedly recommend The Brussel Custom Catering and Events. They helped make our wedding absolutely magical! Thank you, Emily and team!

sionalism, FOOD, humor and work ethic- they are the absolute best. Do not think twice. You will never find another caterer who offers to collect Taco Bell hot sauce packets for your late night taco bar <3 

y professional but also a joy to work with—responsive, attentive, and always willing to go the extra mile to make sure every detail was just right. We had charcuterie centerpieces, beautifully plated meals, and the most fun airstream serving ice cream sandwiches—and every single detail was executed perfectly. Our guests are still raving about the food and the service! Everything was not only delicious but also thoughtfully presented and served with care. Choosing The Brussels was one of the best decisions we made for our wedding day. They truly helped make the day unforgettable. Highly, highly recommend!

organized and creative, everything you want in a wedding vendor. The planning process was smooth and stress-free, everything was fully customizable, and most importantly, the food was so so good! Her team was equally wonderful—patient, professional, and so kind. They were a joy to have on-site and helped make our day feel special and effortless. We truly couldn’t have asked for a better catering experience. Highly, highly recommend!

erfect. No notes

he future. Emily and her staff were professional and pleasant yet almost invisible. We highly recommend this caterer.

g to work with. The staff who came to our wedding, Anna, Aaron, Deb and Jim were professional and so so nice! The Brussel absolutely helped us make our special day into the best day ever!

we had a lot of different allergies and dietary needs at the wedding and they were so accommodating and made sure everyone had so many delicious food options for the night. Not only were they so amazing to work with but the food was incredible!! My guests keep mentioning how delicious everything was and my husband and I loved everything we ate throughout the wedding. I'm so appreciative The Brussel made everything so simple and made our wedding food everything we were hoping for and beyond!

ed to have say and flexibility in building our wedding menu which is what made us realize we probably wanted a "custom catering" option. We found The Brussel here on The Knot and quickly were intrigued. The pictures and reviews were all amazing. So we took the next step of doing a tasting... and enjoyed everything. We ended up using The Brussel catering for both our rehearsal dinner and wedding. The BBQ for the rehearsal reminded me of being in the south. True, delicious, feel-good, can't get enough food! (The cornbread and mac n cheese... no words for how tasty!) For the wedding we had such a huge variety of food! For our passed apps we had beef skewers, toasted raviolis with marinara, mini loaded baked potato skins, and mini chicken street tacos. For the entrees we had "Marry Me Chicken", Carved roast with au jus, and a vegetarian pasta dish. Rice pilaf and cheddar and chive mashed potatoes for sides. Roasted and seasoned mixed veggies, etc. We then had a massive mini dessert bar with tons of variety including mini cheesecakes, mini woopie pies, mini apple crisps, along with many other things. Then we also did "late night bites" mini pizzas. From apps to late-night bites... the food was just divine! Every single guest that we talked to made a comment about how wonderful the food was and how they could not believe it was "wedding food." Guests also really liked that they got a full plate of food and were able to feel full! People who wanted seconds were able to get them, which is very rare at weddings (in my experience). Separately, the waitstaff was just so caring! I said from the very beginning that I was going to be a bride that ATE at her wedding. I remember telling Emily and her sister this during one of our calls and how important it was for me to get to enjoy all of the amazing food. Well, their team made sure I ate!!!! They kept visiting me and checking on me and delivering me my very favorites. One waitstaff even delivered me an entire little plate of the mini loaded baked potatoes because she saw how much I enjoyed them. I could seriously go on and on about the quality of Emily's food and the wonderful service! We HIGHLY recommend and hope to use The Brussel for future events!

guests had dietary restrictions, so knew catering for our group was going to be a HUGE task. I reached out to the Brussel based on them listing an entirely GF menu on their website and they were extremely helpful, professional, and timely with all our correspondence leading up to the wedding. They made the most amazing food for our cocktail hour and dinner!

ique and elevated menu. Everything tasted delicious and our guests raved about the food! From setup to take down they were true professionals in delivery as well. Thank you Team Brussel!!! Only thing to keep in mind is that we did not get a tasting, as they only had one date available in the year that we were not available for- luckily they surpassed our expectations even without getting to try it first.

o many options that fit everyone’s tastes. Emily & her team are so professional, attentive, and hard working. They went absolutely above and beyond and exceeded my expectations! I would recommend The Brussel to anyone who is in need of outstanding catering service. Thank you so much Emily & team, you were all so wonderful and helpful on our special day! I can’t thank you all enough, for all that you did during our special day. Y’all are the best!!!!!!! 🤍🤍🤍

The entire team was very professional and showed great care in making all the details perfect. And the food was amazing! Every single dish was great, from stationary appetizers to passed appetizers to the dinner buffet - everyone at our wedding found something to enjoy. The Brussel is also very allergy friendly and had a lot of gluten free, nut free, vegan, etc. friendly options that didn't compromise on flavor. We would recommend The Brussel to anyone looking for catering services.

azing while answering questions while she was away getting married/on her honeymoon. Everything was perfect.

hings and easy to work with!

ke another buck on a customer. It rained on the day of our event and that didn’t slow them down, they stood under a tent and the food was hot. Plated beautifully and everyone raves about the flavor creations! Thank you!
