From the beginning AnyThyme Catering was incredibly easy to work with. Jolene was quick to respond to emails and easy to set up our tasting with. Once we met Chef Lyss and Jolene in person( and tasted their food) we knew we wanted them for our wedding. They are clearly passionate about what they do and genuinely care about making their clients day stress free and a great experience. We chose their American BBQ menu for our 130-person wedding and it did not disappoint! Their team showed up on time and worked seamlessly with our wedding planner to keep everything running smoothly. Our guests raved about the food and loved the charcuterie boards during cocktail hour. The complimentary water and tea station is such a nice touch and was appreciated. we also didn't end up with tons of leftovers which speaks to the efficiency of their planning. On the day every staff member we interacted with was so friendly . AnyThyme Catering delivered incredible food at a fair price, and we'd recommend them in a heartbeat for any and all types of events. Thanks so much guys!!! Roselyn and James

Preferred Sonoma Caterers 
Rating: 5.0 (5 reviews)
  • Starts at $5,000
  • Serves Santa Rosa, CA

Preferred Sonoma Caterers was founded by Owner/Chef Amber Balshaw and her husband Jim over 35 years ago. Amber’s love of cooking always keeps her excited about food, and that excitement keeps her menus fresh and innovative. Amber has seen trends in food and design come and go (and sometimes come again) over her years planning weddings and other events. She loves to help couples brainstorm new ideas and knows how an event should flow to get everything just right.

We booked with PSC because when we did our tasting we talked to Amber. She told us that she knew the farmers who were growing the vegetables that they were using in their dishes. The food was great with several options. They were easy to work with when it came to the specifics I wanted. The food was even better at the wedding than I remembered at the tasting. The garnishes and details were beautiful and elegant. All my guest commented on how good the food was. Thank you PSC staff for everything!

When we first started planning our wedding, we reached out to so many caterers. Hazy BBQ stood out immediately. Not only did they fit our budget better than anyone else, but they were incredibly welcoming and easy to work with from day one. They invited us in for a tasting, answered every question we had, and made us feel so confident in our decision. Throughout the planning process, they were unbelievably accommodating. They helped with things like providing plates and a high chair for our nephew, and they even let me make menu changes the week before the wedding after I had a little bridal panic. They never made me feel like I was asking too much and were so kind every step of the way. Then came the food… and wow. It was phenomenal. We had guest after guest tell us it was some of the best wedding food they’d ever had. The tri-tip, sliders, Mac, and Brussel sprouts were huge hits, everything was fresh and flavorful, and the service was seamless. Hazy BBQ went above and beyond for us. They made planning easy, took such great care of our guests, and served food that people are still talking about.

Awarded Best of Zola
We worked with Sushi Private Catering a few times on the wedding couple's bridal shower and after-party, they are very professional and nice, a few things we really appreciate are they always be at the event early and they clean up properly. They will consider the venue whether it's indoor or outdoor, and give the couple proper suggestion about the menu, so the event won't smell oily or food, and sometimes they were not the only food vendors, they also gave the wedding couple proper suggestions about the food quantity, their chef also very experienced and nice, they will engage with the guests. During the planning period, we had a few time meetings with them, they always took very detailed notes and sent us for confirmation. So we know we don't need to worry about a thing with the catering part because their team is very reliable. We especially like how they decore the serving table, they brought a lot of decore and make the sushi station nice and elegant, how they display the sushi is also very delicate. Overall, we strongly recommend this team.

"Literally The Best Wedding Food I've Ever Had." -Guest at our wedding If you are even thinking about booking Americano for your wedding, stop thinking and DO IT. Hiring them was single-handedly the best decision we made in our entire wedding planning process. We knew we wanted our food to be a highlight, not an afterthought, and the Americano team delivered a culinary experience that was beyond our wildest dreams. Our guests are still raving about it weeks later! From our very first inquiry, their catering manager (Beni) and team were an absolute dream to work with. They were responsive, incredibly organized, and genuinely excited about creating a menu that felt personal to us. They took our vision and elevated it with creative ideas, turning the tasting into one of our favorite pre-wedding memories. They made the entire process feel completely seamless and stress-free. Now, let's talk about the food on the wedding day. Show-stopping. We had the burrata with prosciutto and fig jam for a starter, and people were losing their minds over how fresh and flavorful it was. For mains, the slow-braised short rib literally melted in your mouth, and the sea bass was cooked to absolute perfection. It wasn't just "good wedding food"—it was exceptional food, period. The presentation was stunning, the ingredients were top-tier, and everything was served hot and flawlessly. Multiple guests—including our pickiest family members—pulled us aside to say it was the most delicious and memorable meal they had ever had at a wedding. Americano didn't just cater our wedding; they created an unforgettable experience that became a core memory of our celebration. They are worth every single penny and then some for the impact they will have on your day. Book them. You will be so, so happy you did!

We pamper your tastebuds with authentic African Foods. To us, it’s more than just food, it’s a brand. It’s THE JOLAS KITCHEN BRAND. We have created a brand, with some amazing loyalty. Our aim is to take you back to the streets of Lagos with the Jolasjollof, and if you have never been to Lagos you can enjoy what the Nigerian party Jollof tastes like. It’s cooked with parboiled rice in a mixture of carefully selected peppers to give you that authentic taste of Nigerian Jollof. Looking forward to bringing our flavors to your next event!

Jolas Kitchen catered at our wedding on December 27th. I cannot say enough good things about Chef Jola, she was so communicative, and made excellent recommendations and suggestions, which was so helpful to me as a first time bride who had never planned such a large event before. We were absolutely blown away by the presentation, and the care and attentiveness of chef Jola and her team. I have never worked with such thoughtful and kind caterers, they really thought of everything and made the night such a wonderful and stress free experience for us. The food was absolutely amazing and our guests could not stop talking about how much they loved everything, from the Beef Suya (my personal favorite) to the Cole Slaw, to the Jollof and Meat Pies, and the Puff Puff. A lot of brides don’t eat much on their wedding day, but I cleaned my whole plate and even took some home with me. Highly recommend!
