“I don't even remember how many came up to me at the wedding to compliment the food, but it was a lot. They all started with “usually wedding food isn’t great, but ALL of the food has been so good.” ALSO, when we sat down for dinner Felicia brought us a plate of apps because we were too busy during cocktail hour to have any and she wanted to make sure we got some too. I loved that so much, just so thoughtful. So thank you Fusion catering for a great wedding experience.”

“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!”

Nomada is boutique taco catering service based in Irvine specializing in traditional yet modern Mexican cuisine. We are passionate about quality ingredients, exquisite presentation and unparalleled service.

“My cousin, giving advice to me for my wedding, said, "No one remembers the food at weddings, its just chicken or fish, don't sweat it", and I took that as a challenge. With a sizeable contingent of my family having celiac disease, and being gluten and dairy intolerant myself, I wanted to find a meal that was majority restriction-diet friendly without non-restricted guests noticing. NOMADA's menu was perfect for our crowd - the passed apps, mobile kitchen taco bar, and all the fixings, sides, and beverages were all gluten and dairy free, and no one with celiac got sick. In addition, our venue did not have a kitchen, so their mobile outdoor kitchen set-up meant we had fresh, hot tortillas and tacos, instead of food cooked offside and reheated right before service. It was a smash hit - Guests went back for seconds and thirds. Salsas ranged from mild to medium spiciness, but were all so flavorful they didn't need to be spicier, and the yellow salsa especially was the talk of the night. The service, presentation, taste, and everything was perfect; at least two friends who attended the wedding are planning to use them for future events they were so impressed. The appetizer meatballs - a can't miss.”

“We had above all cater our sons wedding. I wish I could give them another 10 stars. First of all the staff made sure the Bride, Groom and wedding party had food and drinks while they were taking their photos after the ceremony. Something that didn't even occur to me. The staff was friendly and polite and very attentive to all the guests needs. The passed appetizers were amazing. The food was absolutely delicious. Not your typical wedding food. We chose to have a desert and coffee bar and that was a huge hit. Thank you Above All for an amazing stress free experience. You guys are the best.”

Honey & Hive Boards LLC

“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!”

“As both the event planner and client representative, I can confidently say Martina was a dream to work with. She went above and beyond by offering two tastings prior to the event, which made my client feel fully supported and confident in the menu selection. From a planning perspective, she was communicative, organized, and reliable — I never had to chase her for details or worry about logistics. On event day, her setup was professional, efficient, and seamless alongside the rest of the vendor team. The food was absolutely delicious, and just as good as the tastings. We received so much positive feedback from guests, with several people asking who the caterer was. She’s someone I would happily rehire and confidently recommend to future clients.
