Best Wedding Caterer in Town!

If you need to contract a catering service for an event in San Diego, CA, look no further than Bekker's Catering. They have been voted the number one catering company in town and have won Wedding Wire's Couple's Choice Awards for the past 7-8 consecutive years.

My husband and I began looking for catering companies a year before our wedding date on 09/30/2023. We used The Knot to book tastings. From the get-go, we knew Bekker's was on the top of our lists for the following reasons: 1. transparent pricing - all package costs are posted on their website, and there are no hidden fees; 2. tons of catering food options; and 3. they offered additional services, such as wedding coordination services, making it a one-stop option for all your wedding planning needs. Once we did our tastings, we knew we had to go with Bekker's for our wedding catering. Not only did they have the best-tasting food, but they also offered the ability to add more things to our packages, such as the late-night snacks, boxed and ready to grab and go, for the end of our wedding event.

In addition to the food catering services, we also decided to hire Bekker's for our Day-of Wedding coordination, run by Kimberly and assisted by Makela. Kimberly was the best! Not only did she help put a list together for our master timeline and vendor information months in advance before the wedding, but she also attended our site visits for our wedding reception, kept in contact with all our vendors, and made sure that my husband and I felt cared for and taken care of the day of our wedding. We cannot emphasize enough how amazing it was to work with Kimberly and Bekker's for our wedding, and we would highly recommend any bride/groom to use their services, especially if you have a big wedding in San Diego.

Terrific Food and Service

Bekker's was recommended to us by our venue who had worked with them several times before on different weddings. The service staff was very friendly and efficient! Most of all, all of our guests really enjoyed the food! They were on time and worked hard, I would highly recommend to anyone needing catering for an event.

Would Recommend in a Heartbeat

Bekkers did an amazing job on our wedding! We had a huge guest count but the team at Bekkers handled it so easily and took a lot of weight off our shoulders during the planning process with their positive attitudes and long-time industry experience. In addition to their catering services, we chose to use Bekker’s Complete Wedding Coordination and Kimberly was the best coordinator that truly cared about our vision and worked with us every step of the way! Kimberly has an exceptional amount of industry experience and a great amount of grace that really kept my husband and I calm and focused throughout the planning process. On the day of our wedding, Kimberly and her staff made sure that my husband and I were well taken care of. The single photo I have included doesn't do this vendor justice- they provided all table setting and so much more. Following our wedding, I have received many raving reviews from my own guests about how delicious the food was, how considerate their staff was, and how kind Bekker’s bartenders were! I would recommend Bekker’s in a heartbeat!!
