They are very responsive and answered every question I had (1oo of them!) with patience and was thorough. We booked them for my daughters wedding. They were on time, had plenty of food and it went flawless. I did not have to worry about a thing regarding catering. They are not a fancy caterer with fancy pricing but have delicious food and great service. (LOVE THE GREENS!) Give them a call and see if they are available for your event.

To start Mrs Tiffany & crew were asked at last minute to cater my son’s wedding. Literally 2 weeks prior. Throughout the short timing she kept in constant communication with the bride & us. Her presentation & the esthetics were far beyond what we could imagine. My son is in his honeymoon in Jamaica & still asking is there any more chicken left. The bartenders were top notch as every adult was very pleased. Tiffany went well above & beyond recognizing that the young couple didn’t consider a few necessary things. She went from Chef, to wedding planning, checking off all things needed. Im definitely using her again for future events.

  • Starts at $5,000
  • Serves Lakeland, FL

Award-wining Chef Alain Lemaire is a native of Port-au-Prince, Haiti, where he first discovered his interest in cooking. That interest in food grew out of the need to feed himself what he wanted, and when he wanted it by watching his mother and grandmother in the kitchen, to full blown passion by the time he graduated. Chef Lemaire has featured on several TV shows: he was the host chef of the “Taste of Haiti” episode of the "Luda Can't Cook" series on Discovery+ with award winning rapper, actor, restauranteur Chris "Ludacris" Bridges. He is also a contestant of the Food Network's hit series, Fire Masters, Cutthroat Kitchen, and Chopped.

Chef Lemaire is simply amazing! He made our wedding experience one to remember. He took our food vision and truly made it a reality and beyond. I just love how he was down to earth, listened to us and personalized our menu to fit our needs and personalities. All of our guests said that the food looked super beautiful and tasted even more amazing! I can’t wait to have him do many more events for us in the near future. If you’re looking for someone who is detailed, orderly, and can bring all your visions to life, he is the one you want to book!

Maison D Events and Hospitality

  • Serves Lakeland, FL

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!

100 % recommend this company! I spoke with the owner about how I wanted to offer a pre-ceremony snack for my 130 guests when they arrived at the wedding venue. My ideas were meats and cheese, but with Covid I didn’t want a buffet where guests helped themselves and potentially touched someone else’s food. From that, the owner José came up with lots of creative solutions- he included me in every step of the process to ensure that I would be happy with the finished product. My guests raved about it! Beautiful presentation, high quality and delicious food. Jose is a true professional and takes pride in excellent customer service. I got married at Paradise Cove 6/2021.
