Creative and Beautiful

Hoopla review,
Hoopla was an amazing catering and food service team to work with! Dori, Kat, and Todd were so easy to work with and they helped us create a wonderful menu for our wedding guests. Everything from the food tasting with them to the desserts at the wedding reception. All of our guests loved the food and wanted to know who catered it. We highly recommend them!

Absolutely incredible from beginning to end

My husband and I are local to Baltimore so when we started to plan our vendors for our wedding, Hoopla was the only choice. Food Market is our favorite restaurant in the city and their catering experience gave us the exact same experience we love. We cannot thank the team enough for their help and support. I was a newly gluten free bride and the team customized ALL of our desserts and made a special Gluten Free salad just for me. Our guests raved about the food during and continue to bring it up months after our October wedding. We decided on a buffet, which I was nervous about. The staff served the guests food to help maintain a proper flow and it allowed our guests to come back for seconds. I cannot imagine a better partnership than we had with hoopla.
I’ve included photos from our photographer but also from our tasting, in Food Markets private room. The chefs were on hand to make any adjustments we wanted (gluten free problems) and were so accommodating. Dori took away all the stress I gave my self on seating plans, table set up, and linens. Just wow from start to finish.

Best Wedding Food Ever

Hands down the BEST catered food anyone at our wedding has ever had. The one thing our guests continue to rave about is Hoopla! We were utterly blown away. Dori was so incredibly easy to work with - from rentals to food choices. She was so knowledgeable and professional. The food not only tasted incredible but was absolutely beautiful as well.
