Tolia Foods 
Rating: 5.0 (2 reviews)
  • Starts at $500
  • Serves Carlinville, IL

Hi! I’m Chef Lauralie, and I believe every celebration deserves food that feels warm and meaningful. I’m not a traditional caterer — I offer personal chef services for couples who want an intimate, handcrafted experience for their wedding, engagement dinner, or special brunch. Inspired by my Congolese roots, I became a personal Chef to create beautiful, nourishing menus that bring people together and make your day feel stress-free, delicious, and uniquely you.

Tolia Foods was an amazing catering choice for my birthday. Chef Lauralie communication was punctual, fast, and sincere throughout the planning process. The quality of their work and value was exceptional - they are experienced caterers who provided a tasty variety of memorable dishes that left me and my guests amazed. I would highly recommend Tolia Foods and give them a 10 out of 10 rating. In fact, I wish I could give them a 6-star review!

Hendri's Events 
Rating: 5.0 (2 reviews)
  • Serves Carlinville, IL

Hendri’s is an Events, Party & Wedding Company that has been catering events in St. Louis, Missouri since 1971. Our friendly staff works with you to achieve your ideal event by creating the atmosphere you want in our space or the location of your choice. We are flexible and open to any suggestion ~ conventional to exceptional, casual to chic. Explore your options with us… our only limit is your imagination.

Truly a hidden gem! When we first went to tour the venue, we were a little uncertain from the front parking lot. The entrance is very unassuming. Do not let that deter you! Once you enter the hall you are greeted with a beautiful space! From the black and white floors, the amazingly ornate wooden bar along the dance floor, the lounge areas, the fireplace and the perfect mood lighting, the hall is an absolute dream! The staff is amazing from the beginning of planning until after your big day. Incredibly friendly, and responsive and just all around great to work with. Hendri’s also offers their own catering, and they provided a wonderful meal that was complimented by many of our guests throughout the night. Even if you have another venue, I would suggest checking out Hendri’s for catering as they also cater offsite. All in all, I cannot say enough good things about Hendri’s, and highly suggest checking them out!

Hey there! We’re Butter KC, a boutique catering brand in Kansas City, MO. We specialize in grazing tables, small bites, and totally custom menus—because no two events should be the same! We LOVE hearing your ideas and turning them into unforgettable food experiences. Whether it’s your dream wedding, a garden bridal shower, or a food festival for 2,000+, we’ve got you covered.

I literally could not even begin to tell you how grateful I am for Olivia her team at Butter. From the first call I knew I'd found THE caterer. We had some crazy menu ideas that did not go together and other caterers had laughed at but I was so grateful for them understanding that we wanted food to feel like us. The communication was amazing. I was have issues with other vendors but always knew the food would be awesome. Little did I know just how awesome it would be. I still have people reach out to me asking who catered our wedding and it has been over 6 months now. The food was incredible- all our little details came together and I can't recommend Butter KC enough. 1001/10!!!

Maison D Events and Hospitality 
Rating: 5.0 (9 reviews)
  • Serves Carlinville, IL for additional fees

With over 15 years of experience Maison D is the premier catering and hospitality company you would ever need. We do everything from catering to event planning and everything in-between. We take your event to the next level and elevate it in every way possible

I don’t usually take the time to write reviews, but after my experience with Maison D Events and Hospitality, I felt like they truly deserved one. From the first conversation all the way through the end of the event, everything was handled with so much professionalism, care, and attention to detail. Planning an event can be stressful, especially when you’re trying to make sure the food, setup, timing, and overall experience come together the way you imagined. The team at Maison D made the entire process feel so much easier. They listened to what we wanted, communicated with us throughout the process, and were very accommodating when it came to the little details that mattered to us. The food was honestly one of the highlights of the event. Everything tasted fresh, was seasoned really well, and the presentation was beautiful. Our guests kept talking about how good the food was, and several people even asked who catered the event. The portions were great, everything came out looking professional, and you could tell that they actually take pride in what they serve. What impressed me just as much as the food was the service. The staff was friendly, respectful, attentive, and professional without making things feel stiff or overly formal. They made sure our guests were taken care of and handled things behind the scenes without us having to constantly check in or worry about what was happening next. That allowed us to actually enjoy the event instead of spending the entire time trying to manage everything. There were also little touches throughout the event that showed they genuinely cared about the experience and weren’t just there to provide food and leave. That type of hospitality is hard to find. Overall, we had a really great experience with Maison D Events and Hospitality. If you’re planning a wedding, birthday, corporate event, private dinner, or any special occasion and want a team that cares about the details, provides great food, and treats your guests well, I would definitely recommend them. Thank you to the entire Maison D team for helping make our event such a great experience. We will definitely be using them again in the future!
