We hired Magilla’s Barbecue to cater our wedding, and we truly couldn’t have made a better choice. The food was absolutely delicious—so much so that we completely ran out, even after ordering extra! Our guests couldn’t get enough and are still talking about it. The brisket and pulled pork were better than we could have ever imagined—perfectly cooked and packed with flavor. The sausages were a huge hit too! My husband and my dad can’t stop talking about the pit beans, and I (along with so many of our guests) fell in love with the mac and cheese. Every dish was a knockout. On top of the incredible food, their communication was top-notch from start to finish. Super professional, responsive, and easy to work with, which made the whole planning process so much smoother. While waiting for our wedding day, we were so excited for the food that we kept an eye on their Instagram for their pop-up events—just to get our fix! My personal favorite? The chile relleno sausages. Absolutely to die for. We’re so grateful to Magilla’s Barbecue for helping make our day even more memorable. Highly, highly recommend!

If you're planning a wedding and wanting to do something truly AMAZING with your catering, then quit scrolling and reach out to NOMADA right now! If that one sentence doesn't pull you in, let us explain how everything went down for us! We reached out to NOMADA through email and had the absolute pleasure of working with Laura who was super professional, helpful, and always coming up with ways to make our event even better! We got to meet her and the NOMADA team in person at our tasting and it was WONDERFUL! They let us try everything (which we recommend going with an absolutely empty stomach because you're gonna want to try EVERYTHING)! We fell in love with all of the food (especially the Chilean Sea bass tacos--YUMMM!) and we were already tailoring what we would want for our wedding menu! After the tasting, we signed a contract that they really helped tailor towards our event and make sure that everything was covered (i.e. mobile kitchens, chips and salsa, servers, etc.). After that, we had to wait a few months until the event (just DREAMING of eating their delicious food) and all during that time, they answered all of our questions and made sure we felt taken care of! When it was finally time for our wedding... NOMADA WAS INCREDIBLE! So many of our guests told us they were some of the best tacos/food they have EVER had at a wedding before! They also couldn't stop talking about how nice and helpful the team of servers were! Overall, the whole team SMASHED IT out of the park in every sense and we truly couldn't have been more thankful them! Overall, the food was delicious, the service was efficient and so personable, and all of their attention to detail throughout the whole planning process was unmatched. Our guests felt so taken care of and well fed as everyone went back for seconds (and possibly thirds)! They are worth every single penny! Now quit reading this long review and book them because they are the absolute best! :D

Awarded Best of Zola
When we were planning for our wedding, my husband were looking for things that we loved and wanted to share with our family and friends. I had been following Nancy’s work/business on Instagram and knew I wanted to incorporate my and my husbands favorite snack — a charcuterie board. Nancy was very professional, communicative, and listened. I had a vision of how our grazing table would look and Nancy brought my vision to life. She was very detailed and decorative. My grazing table had a large variety of cheese, fruits (fresh and dry), jams, dips, honey, several different types of breads/breadsticks and mini Belgian waffles. The decorations and layout was very well thought out and made with lots of love and detail. My guests absolutely loved the grazing table and it was the talk of the night. I highly recommend Nancy. You won’t be disappointed!
