Maison D Events and Hospitality 
Rating: 5.0 (9 reviews)
  • Serves Nelson, WI

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!

The staff set up diligently and on time, and the bar line was smooth. Working with Cyndy on party planning was fun- her team was very reasonable to our requests and offered add-ons that were important to us like linens, compostable dinnerware, and a flexible bar plan. We recommend Sawatdee and Cyndy to anyone looking to work with a great local restaurant for their wedding!

Unique Dining Catering 
Rating: 5.0 (6 reviews)
  • Starts at $1,500
  • Serves Nelson, WI

We like to think of ourselves as the garage band of caterers at Unique Dining Catering – the one that got really good but managed to stay real. We are a company that manages catering and weddings at multiple event venues, including our HQ venue, Courtyards of Andover.

Awarded Best of Zola
Unique Dining Catering was a wonderful choice for our wedding caterer. Throughout the planning process, they were extremely responsive - replying to emails and calls very quickly with thoughtful answers. On the big day, the food was absolutely delicious. Guests raved about the BBQ buffet, especially the garlic Parmesan mashed potatoes. Unique Dining's staff worked incredibly hard during the dinner and tore everything down for us at the end of the night. They even boxed up all of the centerpieces and other decor for us to take home, which was so helpful. We'd highly recommend Unique Dining Catering for your wedding or special event catering needs!

5 Course Cuisine LLC 
Rating: 5.0 (1 review)
  • Starts at $500
  • Serves Nelson, WI

Chef Ray designed Five Course Catering as a cutting edge, Private Chef catering company. They are respected for their “extra” fine service, excellence in creativity and fresh, flavor forward food. Custom menus to your event. Over 30 years in the industry opening restaurants, consulting, book author, menu development, training and winning many awards in the field gives Chef Ray an advantage in having an in-depth knowledge of the food industry that helps him solve your catering needs.

Absolutely Outstanding Experience! Chef Ray and his staff were AMAZING from start to finish. From the initial consultation call to the consistent updates throughout the planning process, and finally the flawless execution of our wedding meal—everything was truly 10/10. We booked Chef Ray sight unseen and food untasted, having only ever spoken with him over the phone—and we are so glad we did. His professionalism, warmth, and confidence immediately put us at ease, and he absolutely delivered on every promise. Our wedding was an intimate 40-person celebration at a private venue. Chef Ray and his team cooked everything fresh on-site, and the food was outstanding. They also prepared a stunning cocktail hour charcuterie board that our guests are still talking about! He helped us create a personalized menu that perfectly suited our tastes. The entire team was personable, funny, and friendly, making the whole experience enjoyable and completely stress-free. They even offered to serve our champagne for the toasts, which was such a thoughtful and appreciated gesture. I would highly recommend 5 Course Catering to everyone. Thank you, Chef Ray, for making our big day unforgettable!

Awarded Best of Zola
We ordered Tuck Ins to put in our wedding guest gift bags at the hotel. Tuck Ins was easy to work with, delivered in a timely manner, and all of our guests loved having something delicious and made by a local Philly company. If we were to get married again, I think we would include Tuck Ins at the dessert table and let the guests roast them at the reception. Would highly recommend!
