We did a pasta dish and then a Spanish dish to celebrate my culture and it all was so yummy. Mishele was great to work with and she brought a great and very professional team with her. She was also so sweet and checked in on us during our wedding.

Let me start by saying even though Frostproof BBQ is new in town, they have other locations and have the catering down pat!

Awarded Best of Zola
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.

Chef Victor Events helped throw the engagement party of my dreams!! From the food and service to the thoughtful presentation – I could not recommend them more. The charcuterie board was stunning, the hors d’oeuvres were phenomenal, the mini cheeseburgers were a hit, the rolls were soft and buttery, the pasta was rich and flavorful, the meat was perfectly tender, and the salad was so fresh. Just thinking about it now has my mouth watering. Truly, I could go on and on! Their in-house party planner is incredibly creative and on top of every detail, and the rest of the team was equally wonderful. Chef Victor and his food were nothing short of perfection. I only wish I could upload all the videos from the day to fully capture how magical the party was - screenshots don’t do it justice! Do yourself a favor and hire them. You won’t regret it!!

At The Grazing Pony, family has always been the heart of everything we do, including the inspiration behind our name. Aspen, our founder’s beloved horse, represents the warmth, charm, and sense of community that we strive to bring to every event. In June of 2024, our founder made the bold decision to leave a successful marketing career to be more present at home, yet still wanted to channel her passion, creativity, and event planning expertise into something meaningful. This business is the perfect blend of both worlds, allowing her to be a stay-at-home mom while continuing to create memorable experiences for others.

The Grazing Pony was such a hit at our wedding! They provided incredible service during our cocktail hour, and our guests absolutely loved building their own charcuterie boards. Everything was so customizable, which made it fun and unique, and it definitely helped make our day even more memorable. One of our favorite touches was that they made special boards just for us, we finally got to sneak away for a snack, and it was perfect! We can’t recommend them enough

Award Winning BBQ catering company with over 10 years of experience! We can cater for any event large or small. From corporate functions, weddings, baby showers, birthdays, and more!! Let us help make your event special.

Our wedding was planned in approximately 10 months and from the moment I sat down with Melissa at Dade City BBQ I knew it was the perfect choice for us. First, she was kind, always answered any and all questions we had, no matter how small they were. We met for a tasting (delish!) and fell in love with her even more. In addition, we tasted all the meats and sides for a BBQ buffet. We chose pulled pork, chicken quarters and added brisket. Our 3 sides were mac & cheese, collard greens and potato salad w/ cornbread. They were ALL delicious. Our guests raved about everything and especially the greens! We also opted for a grazing table for our guests. It was beautifully presented and absolutely beautiful and delicious. Our guests were in awe! She even made us our own plate because she knew we were busy talking with our guests. I would highly recommend this caterer! VERY FAIR prices, large portions and happy guests. I am 100% pleased. Thank you Melissa and your amazing staff!!
