    We booked Two Bites Events & Catering with just six weeks to go, and Adam and Hailey responded to every question instantly, which gave us so much peace of mind during the planning process. They listened to what we wanted and delivered exactly that—the food was incredible and every detail was perfect. Our wedding day turned into a downpour, but the team didn't miss a beat and kept everything running smoothly like it was sunshine the whole time. From the moment we reached out to the day of our reception, Two Bites made us feel like our vision mattered and that they were committed to making it happen.

    Pigeon Caterers 
    Rating: 5.0 (1 review)
    New Orleans, LA

      For us it begins with a great taste. Food is our passion and you’ll be able to taste the difference with our one of a kind chef executed menus that are prepared using the freshest ingredients. Here at Pigéon Caterers, headquartered out of Mid-City, we pride ourselves with providing authentic New Orleans Cuisine as well as culinary favorites from around the country. With a commitment to an elevated level of service and innovative ideas for presentation, we have the capacity to fulfill the dream of any Bride or Meeting Planner. Whether we are catering a lavish wedding, or a large corporate event, our passion for excellence is one in the same.

      Our venue provided catering as part of the inclusive wedding package. Pigeon was not the original caterer. They were brought on about 6-7 months after we signed our contract. Our venue was not great to work with. Communication was terrible, our contract turned out to be a mess with multiple dates listed, it took months of emails and phone calls before we got anywhere in the process. Shelley with Pigeon stepped in about 4 months before the wedding AND SAVED THE DAY!!! I felt so much better about the whole day when I was able to work with Pigeon directly. Shelley went above and beyond for our special day. The catering was fantastic. People are still talking about the boudin balls and shrimp and grits.

      New Orleans, LA
      • Starts at $20 per person

      Boucherie is a wedding catering business based out of New Orleans, Louisiana. Specializing in preparing Southern-inspired meals for happy couples in and around the Big Easy, this company delights in complementing receptions with their distinctive dishes. With years of catering experience, this seasoned team is passionate about seeing newlyweds enjoy their favorite foods. All that is required of you is to tell them about your dream wedding meal, and they will work diligently to bring your ideas to fruition.

      For our wedding we tried to stay away from the whole "wedding industrial complex" and work with real people, who provide real services to normal people. Boucherie, is first and foremost a great restaurant. We did a full restaurant buy out for our rehearsal dinner, and people from NY, Cali, Chalmette and New Orleans were all thoroughly impressed. The same was true of the food the night of the wedding. They crushed it. Sara, was an absolute joy to work with. She's a straight shooter which is I appreciated. Additionally, she went out of her way to make it special, to work with us, and to improve upon what we asked for. Her team the day of was great. Pro Tip: Charcuterie Board was a show stopper!

      Graze Dat! Charcuterie 
      Rating: 5.0 (5 reviews)
      New Orleans, LA
      • Starts at $450

      Graze Dat Charcuterie takes the diverse presentation aspect to an entirely new level. The charcuterie arrangements, or “grazing” boards, produced by owner Elizabeth Choto are vibrant works of art, with various cured meats, sausages, fruits, vegetables, pickles, chutneys and cheeses arrayed in spiraling, three dimensional designs that often resemble floral arrangements

      Hiring Graze Dat to put together a grazing table for a good friends babyshower was the best decision in regards to food options I could have made. Not only was it beautiful, but so delicious and fresh. It was a hit and completely stress free! I could not recommend them more and will be a returning customer for sure.

The owners handled everything onsite, which was a great sign from the start. I’ll be hiring them for all of my future parties!

The food was delicious and plentiful from the passed Hor Devous to all 4 live food stations, and all the chefs and workers took special precautions for my son's food allergies. The venue was perfect, a beautiful place to have a cocktail party or wedding. Racheal handled all the details to make the party extra special for a beautiful couple. Being the host, all I had to do was show up, greet the guest, and have a great time.

      Growing up I have always been a person whose enjoyed great food. My aunt would always take me to 5-star restaurants in Beverly Hills. I never thought I would turn out to be a great cook, but my friends always seems to enjoy it. I met my husband in college and he played football, his favorite thing in the world was food. We now have three children and my favorite pass time is creating a great cuisine full of flavor. Growing up in California by way of Louisiana, Mexican, Soul Food, and Southern Cuisine are my most valued dishes.

      Doni was such a pleasure to work with. Very ease going, clean and the food was absolutely amazing. Everything that the clients asked she didn’t hesitate to please. I love collaborating with Doni in events and think she’d be wonderful for other clients.
