Wedding Rehearsal Dinner

Southern Plates Catering catered our son's rehearsal dinner at Terrapin Hill Farm. The wedding couple lives in DC and the families live in VA and Nebraska...so they picked KY to get married in as it was the 1/2 way point for both families to travel. We walked into Southern Plates on a cold February day looking for a caterer. Rhonda Reeves sat down with us, at her busiest time, and immediately we knew she was the one who could make the rehearsal dinner celebration memorable. She was so easy to work with and her staff was amazing. The menu she designed fit the feel of the occasion but didn't upstage the wedding day event. Everyone enjoyed her delicious food. I would highly recommend Rhonda and her team at Southern Plates for any catering need. She made our "long distant" catering need flawless and enjoyable.

Kathy we were honored to serve! You guys were an amazing group! We miss you already! Take care!

Great food, gorgeous venue

Southern plate was a great place to hold our rehearsal dinner. The food was absolutely amazing and the loft itself was gorgeous without any extra decorations. Rhonda and the rest of the staff were courteous and professional.

Wonderful rehersal dinner!!

Would use Southern Plate again and again! Rhonda helped me plan and checked in with me to verify and confirm menu and instructions multiple times. Never felt doubtful or out of the loop. The food was amazing, hot, and delicious. The bread pudding was simply the best. Staff and Rhonda were so friendly and professional. Took all the work and worry away from me and did a superb job. Top notch business all the way!!!

Wonderful Company

Rhonda at Southern Plate Catering was wonderful to work with. I was planning the wedding from out of state, and she worked with me through email and phone call to make sure we got everything right. When we finally did meet with her in person, she made us feel like family. She is a genuine, kind hearted person, who worked hard to make sure everything went smoothly. And the food was just delicious! I cannot say enough good things!

Great food, great people, great experience!

Southern Plate Catering was a dream. Rhonda is absolutely wonderful! As we planned my daughter’s wedding, her years of experience was evident. Lots of common sense advice that really made the difference. Food! The food was delicious. Everyone raved about it. Hope she will cater my next daughter’s wedding when the time comes.

Southern Plate Catering is the BEST!

Southern Plate Catering did a phenomenal job for my wedding! Rhonda was a pleasure to work with and her catering staff were great and professional. Rhonda is a very personable person and went the extra mile to make sure everything was smooth and perfect for our day. She was more than just a caterer or vendor. She is passionate in her work took the time to get to know my husband and I, and made us feel like family. Rhonda is always enthusiastic and always seemed genuinely excited to be a part of our day. She made everything such a stress-free process.

The food was phenomenal. Our guests still talk about how great the food was. Many have stated that the food at our wedding was some of the best food they have ever had at an event/wedding. There were many options to pick from and Rhonda was able to work with various dietary needs. Southern Plate Catering is also afforable and can accommodate to a variety of budgets. Rhonda was always full of ideas and suggestions and even gave me options I didn’t think about to stay within my budget.

I highly recommend Southern Plate Catering for any special event or wedding!

2 Weddings 3 weeks a part

The best southern catering you’ll ever have

Rhonda was extremely helpful with our wedding. She helped my wedding coordinator get structure into what was going to happen each step of the way in the reception! I worried about nothing!!! They are a 10/10 in my book. The food was delicious!! Her test tasting was professional setting with southern charm and the food is just amazing! I can’t get over how good everything was!! Picking what we were going to serve was so hard because EVERYTHING was so good!! Also you can’t help but love Rhonda! You’ll want to be her best friend by the end of your time with her!

Rhonda was a joy to work with! She was helpful with all wedding related tasks even outside her expertise of food. The food was delectable and well received by our guests. Such great flavor! Once we decided on our menu, Rhonda took care of the details so we didn't need to worry about anything regarding food leading up to and on the wedding day. For the high quality food and service, the price is extremely reasonable.

I worked with Rhonda for my rehearsal dinner and wedding catering. The food was PHENOMENAL and the value was incredible. Southern Plates knows exactly how to create a perfect wedding menu and even sent me and my husband home with an extra to-go plate that evening. THANK YOU!

Rhonda and staff went above and beyond to ensure that the food for our wedding was perfect. At our initial tasting Rhonda invited us in and we felt right at home while tasting her "made from scratch" food. She was always an email, phone call, or text away. She even helped with the little details such as recommending other preferred vendors. Guests at our wedding have continuously complimented the food! I would highly recommend her to others.

She has a true passion for wedding and what she does and she helped us through the entire planning process to make sure all of our needs were met. I would definitely recommend Southern Plate Catering!

My experience with Southern Plate Catering was better than I could have ever imagined when I started my wedding planning journey. When you first meet the owner Rhonda you will get the feeling that you've known her for much longer than you have; she is kind, sweet, and very personable. The one thing that sets Southern Plate Catering apart from the rest is that delicious, homemade food is a PASSION for Rhonda. She doesn't just enjoy cooking, she lives and breathes it. All of the recipes you will have a chance to taste and experience through this company are homemade and built on decades of experience.

Southern Plate Catering not only catered my wedding, but also my rehearsal dinner in their adorable downtown venue, "The Loft" in Danville, KY. My family could not STOP talking about how amazing her food was, and I heard MULTIPLE times that the Chicken Alfredo was the best they had ever eaten (some of these comments coming from women well into their 70's). The same was said about our meal for the wedding as well, everyone was left full, satisfied, and amazed that their wedding meal didn't taste like a "process", but something they would experience if they sat down at a homemade family dinner.

Please give this lovely company a chance, her prices are reasonable, and her food is out of this world. She will do whatever she can to make your special day everything you're hoping it will be. Her talent goes far beyond food and she has the capabilities of helping you stay on track and not feel those wedding jitters.

We contacted Southern Plate Catering about a month before our wedding and thankfully they had our date available! Rhonda and her staff were so nice and accommodating for assisting us last minute! Seriously, our wedding dinner would NOT have good as smooth as it did without them! Rhonda and team catered to our desired breakfast/brunch buffet menu wishlist and exceeded our expectations in the taste, ease, and quality of the food! Our guests complimented the food choices for weeks! We have no complaints and would highly recommend Southern Plate Catering to anyone looking for a caterer!

Rhonda was kind, professional, and really took the time to get to know us and answer all of our questions. We found that Southern Plate Catering was delicious food at a reasonable price. We had the bourbon glazed chicken with corn pudding, green beans, potato bake, rolls, sweet tea, water, and lemonade. Everything was delicious and everyone spoke highly of the food. We highly recommend them, hiring them to cater our wedding was one of the best things we did.
