You can't get any better than C&J Catering!

I've had the pleasure to experience working with the team at C&J catering for many years. The food, the customer service, the bartenders, and the attention to detail were all top-notch. During my wedding planning experience, working with Andrea was such a dream! I think back to the earlier months of working together to come up with our menu - and the culinary team did a fantastic job whipping up some inspirational dishes that went along with our St. Patrick's Day theme. We had custom hors d'oeuvres and desserts that our guests went NUTS over. And they were very inclusive by ensuring that my guests with gluten free allergies also left with full bellies. The brisket....*chef's kiss* There weren't many leftovers and that's the biggest compliment of all to C&J Catering. All of the little details, all of my late-night emails, all of the careful attention made for a beautifully executed wedding day. Job well done!!!!!

Great Experience!

Let me just say - I was not an easy client! I had no idea what I wanted catering wise, but Andrea worked SO hard with me - everything ended up perfect thanks to her! We ended up doing kind of a mix of stations and buffet and it really worked out so well! I'm so grateful for Andrea, I never could have figured out a plan if it wasn't for her.
