Jamie and her team did an amazing job at our wedding on 8-10-25. Not only were they so attentive the day of the wedding, they were so incredibly helpful and patient leading up to our wedding day with all of our guests allergies but most importantly, us. Jamie and Natalie made sure that we knew to approach them with any questions that we might have with anything, they responded quickly and even made the effort to call us whenever we asked to talk on the phone for further clarification on some questions we had. My husband and I got so many compliments from our guests that the food was great, which was such a relief to hear! It’s hard to trust caterers that know what they are doing plus the food tasting good, but my chef catering did just that. We are so glad that we booked our wedding with them, so please book with my chef catering!

From custom menu development and private tastings to curated bar packages, event timeline planning, staffing coordination, and seamless collaboration with planners and venues, we provide a comprehensive catering experience designed to make your wedding day effortless and unforgettable.

    Odeen’s Catering delivered a wedding dining experience that genuinely rivaled some of the best restaurants we’ve been to. The quality of the food was exceptional from start to finish — not just “great for a wedding,” but truly outstanding on its own merits. Every course was thoughtfully prepared and beautifully executed. The ingredients tasted fresh, the flavors were balanced and elevated, and everything was served at the perfect temperature — something that’s incredibly hard to achieve at scale. From the cocktail hour through dinner, there wasn’t a single dish that didn’t impress. What stood out most was the consistency. Whether you were one of the first tables served or the last, the quality never dipped. That level of precision and care is rare in catering, and it did not go unnoticed by our guests — many of whom are serious food lovers and couldn’t stop talking about the meal. Beyond the food, the service was seamless and professional, but it was the culinary experience that truly set Odeen’s apart. If food is a priority for your event, you will be in exceptionally good hands with this team.

    Wow! First off, I want to say thank you so much Louis and your team for all the hard work you put into our wedding on 10.18.2025. From the start, we were doing a lot of diy, and it was a lot of people’s first wedding, so we were a bit lost at times. Louis was helping everyone stay organized, have suggestions, and went above and beyond. He even poured the drinks for our sweetheart table and helped with setting up the dessert table, which was a huge help since I forgot about it last minute! The music was awesome, bartender and his wife were amazing and so much help along with the rest of the team, especially with any last minute changes(such as figuring out the champagne toast which I totally forgot to mention!). The food was absolutely delicious and the brisket had everyone talking! Photo Booth was a hit! They were so flexible with any change that was made, and Louis just held it together for our entire wedding. We appreciate you all soooo much!! Thank you!

    I have a passion for hospitality, outstanding service, and changing the reputation of wedding food... it can be memorable and delicious! I have spent over 20 years in gourmet kitchens across the world. When I came to Texas in 2009 I fell in love with Southern cuisine. After many years in luxury hotels across DFW, in 2016 I created Tex-Med cuisine (modern Mediterranean with a Texan twist) which combines the food of my homeland with the flavors of Texas. My wife, Stephanie, and I opened Ferah Tex-Med Kitchen in 2019 and began offering catering services shortly after.

    Ferah Catering & Events provided exceptional service for our wedding day. Stephanie & Chef Burak was a delight to work with - professional, responsive, and attentive to all our needs. Chef Burak went above and beyond, customizing a fusion menu that artfully incorporated both my husband's African American heritage and my Vietnamese background. He also thoughtfully created special meals for our young guests and vegan friends. The food was simply sublime - 5-star dining with exquisite, fresh, locally-sourced ingredients. Stephanie and Chef Burak made sure we were well-fed and cared for throughout the celebrations - from cocktail hour bites delivered to our bridal suite, to perfectly plated dinner courses for the bride & groom (we hosted a buffet style) to keeping our drinks refreshed. They also offered cake cutting services and toile care of cleaning up after dinner. We had plenty of left overs that was delicious the day after. Our guests made sure to tell us “this is the best wedding food we’ve had in a while!” We couldn't recommend Ferah more highly for making our wedding meal so special and memorable.

      T and her company were amazing to work with! She is able to make a large wedding look easy (it’s not lol). My husband and I had a personal tragedy occur literally weeks before our wedding taking our focus elsewhere. I sent inspiration photos and we discussed our vision (simple elegance) and she handled everything else: coordination with the venues, our photographer, the transportation company, catering, and most importantly, with my husband, to allow as little stress on me (us) for our wedding while ensuring it was what we wanted. She is very communicative and able to resource pretty much anything (e.g. burgundy flowers, specific table settings, etc). She directed my focus to the most important things we wanted and was able to instinctually fill in the rest when I wasn’t mentally and physically able to facilitate, creating the vision we so wanted for our wedding. We have received so many compliments from our friends and family and most importantly, we are happy with what was delivered for our special day.

We are a crew that clearly has fun at events (we'd have to given that we roll up with a giant, bright, plaid-wrapped trailer). We are an LGBTQ-friendly company that focuses on providing the highest VALUE for ALL of our clients.

            These guys made our wedding vendor dreams come true! We knew from before we started mapping out our wedding that we wanted a taco truck, and we figured it would not be an easy task to get one of such quality to come out to the boonies of Vermont. But Trail Break did, and they made the whole process so easy! We were completely floored during our first tasting with them, at just how good every single item on their menu is. We locked it in immediately from there and never looked back. The fact that they can be your food and drink provider, all in one, is huge. And it’s just all so good, with so many flexible options for drinks from batch cocktails to single serve cans - they really work with you to match what you’re looking for. And then on site, I can’t say enough good things about how flexible and chill they were. Loved the service, loved the aesthetic, loved the food, loved hanging on to all the leftovers for guests to snack on and enjoy later in the night. Truly the best!!

            We chose Premier Event Services as our caterer and couldn't have made a better decision. From our first conversation, they were quick to respond and showed us plenty of options to choose from, which made planning feel easy and stress-free. The food was absolutely delicious our guests couldn't stop talking about how good it was, and several people asked for seconds. They took real good care of us throughout the night, checking in to make sure we had everything we needed while we ate. I was nervous about accommodating guests with allergies, but they handled it so smoothly with zero problems. The cherry on top was the to-go plates they provided we ate those that night after the wedding and loved every bite. Premier Event Services made our day special and we'd recommend them to anyone planning a wedding.

                Zeffert and Gold Catering was an exceptional choice for our wedding. Their communication style was consistently clear, detailed, and professional throughout the entire planning process. When we had a last minute change in catering, they easily stepped in and made the transition seamless. The quality of their work was truly exceptional - the food was absolutely delicious and their team worked incredibly well with all of our other vendors. They even prepared a special tray of apps and our signature drinks for my husband and I so we could take a few moments alone after the ceremony to decompress, and continued to provide drinks and food as needed throughout the entire night. We could not have asked for a better catering experience, and highly recommend Zeffert and Gold to any couple planning their wedding.

                About wedding caterers

                How much does wedding catering cost?

                When thinking about catering cost, consider drinks, hors d'oeuvres and stations, and the main meal itself. Bar services are quoted per person and pricing often depends on what alcohol you want (more expensive packages include pricier labels). Hors d'oeuvres and stations are also priced per person, with variable costs for more expensive options like lobster rolls. For the main meal, consider what you’d spend per head going out to a restaurant in your area—the cost per person at your wedding will be similar. Keep in mind that plated meals cost more per person than buffets.

                When should we book our wedding caterer?

                Choosing a wedding caterer is an important decision for many couples—good food can really make an event stellar! It’s best to start researching caterers 10–12 months out, and book around 8 months out. You may not always be able to schedule a tasting before booking your caterer. For many smaller vendors, the effort and expense to put together tastings without a signed contract is prohibitive. In these cases, your tasting will take place after you’ve booked the caterer and will focus on refining menu choices.
