Catering Connection is the best!

Catering Connection made our wedding dreams a reality! Every detail, from the mouthwatering appetizers (seriously, the bacon wrapped dates were the best!) to the attentive service, was absolutely perfect. If you are lucky enough to work with Casey, you will not be sorry! She was a pleasure to work with and honestly made the whole process as easy as possible. Overall, Catering Connection exceeded our expectations in almost every way. We wouldn't hesitate to recommend them to anyone planning a wedding or special event!

Absolutely amazing!

They were absolutely amazing! Casey and her team took care of everything and helped make our day perfect! She made sure we ate (Both apps and dinner), drinks were full and guests were all happy. They were the absolute best and I would 1000% use them again. They helped with planning every little detail along the way, and helped us make decisions. She even helped organize other vendors and rentals for the big day! Casey and her team made it a flawless and perfect day from start to finish! I cannot say enough good things about our experience. Oh and the food was mouth watering and as delicious or more delicious than the tasting!

Amazing food and service!

We were so impressed by the food and service at our wedding and received so many compliments! Casey is so organized and was so helpful throughout the wedding planning process and made us feel very comfortable the whole time. As our venue did not provide any rentals, Casey was also able to coordinate with a local rentals team for us. This meant we had one less vendor to coordinate with, so this was a huge plus as we found that not all catering companies do this. Overall a great local business to work with and would highly recommend the Catering Connection team!
