Froggy's Catering 

5.0

Highwood, IL
  • Caterer

Froggy's was founded in the summer of 1980 by co-founder Chef Thierry Lefeuvre. After a few successful years, Froggy’s responded to the ever increasing customer demand for diversified services by opening Froggy’s Catering with Thierry Mace as the director of all off-premise affairs. Thierry Mace was born in Brittany and has worked in England, Germany, and the Caribbean. Keeping in line with the objective of providing clients with innovative food concepts, exceptional service, and good value, Froggy’s Catering has been offering customized catering services of the finest quality. From intimate dinner parties to large corporate events accommodating 600 guests, Froggy’s Catering always strives to provide the highest of standards throughout the Chicago land area and across the country.

Froggy's Catering was the perfect choice for our wedding. When we see anyone who attended our wedding, they still rave about the incredible food. All of the hors d’oeuvres were divine, and the bar service was exceptional. At Thierry’s recommendation, we brought in our own alcohol to lower our overall cost. We collaborated about the menu of spirits to determine what would be the best options for our guests. Moreover, my husband and I had a specialty cocktail which Thierry and his team were happy to accommodate. For dinner, we chose the beef and chicken combination plate and passionfruit cake - both were outstanding. While my husband and I are chocolate cake people, we tried all of the flavors offered and unanimously agreed the passionfruit was the clear winner. Our guests thought so, too. We had the opportunity to taste the menu a few months prior to the wedding and make any adjustments we wanted. For example, we wanted enough bread for everyone at the table to have 2 pieces each as well as a larger serving of mashed potatoes. We also wanted a specific white wine (not French) to be served with dinner. In addition to guiding us through the food and bar selections, Thierry also helped us choose our table linens. He was wonderful to work with and graciously incorporated all of requests. He was quick to update our menu as well as our invoice. Thierry was transparent with the costs and kept us well informed throughout the planning process. Froggy's Catering is reasonably priced, offers delectable food, and prioritizes professionalism. Let Thierry and his years of experience in the wedding industry guide you as you design an unforgettable wedding menu. I highly recommend Froggy's for your wedding or other special event! You will not be disappointed.

Ken was the absolute best DJ/MC we could have asked for. Not only did he meet with us and help us plan the entire night but he also made sure we were staying on schedule throughout the night. Ken made personalized slideshows to play during our first dance and parent dances. For our last dance he surprised us with a song that had the speeches from early in the night mixed into it. Our family told us that it was such a “love filled” wedding and I really think Ken was part of the reason why.

  • Serves Highwood, IL

Your wedding is one of the most important days of your life, and I’m here to help make it UNFORGETTABLE! I specialize in personalized ceremonies that reflect who you are as a couple—whether lighthearted and fun or deeply heartfelt. Serving couples across Chicagoland, I’m passionate about making your ceremony the highlight of your big day—for you and your guests. I have over 30 years of experience as an ordained minister, and have married 1,200+ awesome couples. I LOVE helping couples start their marriage with love, joy, and a ceremony they will never forget. Let’s create a ceremony your guests won’t stop talking about!

Our experience with Rev. Dave was honestly a hit from the beginning! His personality is magnetic and you can tell he puts love and intention into the wedding ceremonies that he is a part of. He has different content up his sleeve (you’ll see when you book with him) to truly give you an unforgettable ceremony. Our guests could NOT stop raving about him and all of our guests thought that we had YEARS of personal family connections with him, when in reality we only had a 3-4 planning sessions. One of our close family friends even told my dad that our ceremony was the best ceremony he had ever seen and his daughter just got married (sorry girl!). All i can say is this: when you receive his pricing, DO NOT SKIMP. My (now) husband and i paid for this wedding ourselves, and i do admit that we went with the middle package because of our own hectic schedules and finances, but Rev Dave is WORTH IT ALL. You are (hopefully) only getting married one time, and one of THE best decisions you could make is hiring Rev. Dave!

Jerry and his crew made out wedding day incredible! They helped run the whole day, they got the guests seated, kept everything on schedule, and ensured that Ben and I didn't have to worry about anything. When our flowergirl got stage-fright right before walking down the aisle, Jerry swooped in to save the day and helped her find her mom. We initially didn't plan to do a grand entrance into the reception, but Jerry and the DJ (Megan from Music that Moves) made one happen last-minute so our flower girl could have a second shot ar throwing her petals.

Since 1930, our family has been baking quality products for dessert lovers like you. Our story begins with my father-in-law, John Slove, being hired to work as an apprentice in a Chicago bakery. While there he learned everything there is to know about baking. Then, in 1946, he and my mother-in-law, Grace, opened their own bakery on Diversey Avenue in Chicago – Slove Bakery. Their goal was to produce great quality desserts and provide excellent customer service: he did the baking; she the handshaking. Through hard work and determination, they grew the business and the bakery’s reputation as one of the finest in the Chicagoland area.

The Lovin Oven Cakery was a fantastic choice for our wedding cake and desserts. From the very beginning, their communication was quick, professional, and clear - making the process seamless. The quality of their work was truly exceptional, with beautifully detailed and personal designs. Our family has had cakes from them for years, and they were even able to deliver all the way to our wedding in Wisconsin. We've heard nothing but rave reviews from our guests, and some are even considering driving down just to try more of their delicious creations. Lovin Oven Cakery made our special day even sweeter!

Meraki Salon made my wedding day above and beyond! To be able to recreate a picture of someone else’s work and add your own touch at the end of all of it and have your hair and makeup last through tears, smiling, dancing and sweating all night is outstanding! To look like you did hours before saying I do to your soulmate as you are starting to get ready for bed is something not many salons can say they have perfected but this salon gave me everything I ever dreamed of! This salon is worth it all!! This salon will not let you down!!

Annette was an absolute delight to work with from the very beginning. She had fantastic communication and was there on my wedding day for several hours making sure everything was perfect. The flowers were absolutely gorgeous, I was obsessed with the bouquets, boutonnières, and arch flowers. I am so happy with my choice to go with Annette and would do it over again 100% if I had to. 10/10!!

Wendy is truly amazing and did wonders for my bridesmaids, mother-in-law, and myself. Her background and experience is impressive and her knowledge is extensive. She airbrushed my entire wedding party and the make-up felt lightweight and lasted all day. I also made the mistake of getting a facial peel too close to my wedding and she was able to cover up a burn on my cheek. She made me look and feel fabulous! Couldn't have asked for a better make-up artist for my wedding!

They will do anything they can to make sure your day goes as planned. The venue itself is absolutely stunning and comfortably accommodates a large number of guests.
