Culinary Catering catered my daughter's wedding last week. Everything was perfect! I heard so many compliments on the food. They were very good to work with and helped to make the wedding extra special by fulfilling last minute requests.

Stacey Schneider

Amazing. Heather is wonderful and goes above and beyond!! Food was delicious and catering staff were on top of everything. I would recommend Culinary Catering to anyone, any day!

Culinary Catering Services catered my wedding in 2020 and they were amazing to work with! Heather and Sally were friendly, adaptable, and professional. Even with planning a wedding during a pandemic, they did everything they could to help me with the process and all the changes. They provided amazing food and service on the day of the wedding. I highly recommend this catering company!

Sally, the Creative Catalyst, was a pleasure to work with. From speaking to her on the phone, to her emails, she made our needs a priority and went above and beyond in what her services could offer. I appreciate her kindness and would highly recommend her services!

Julie Worrall

They have accommodated us so well and we are looking forward to enjoying the food at our wedding!

Jessica Mitchell

Food was amazing! We didn't get to eat much with nerves and being pulled around during our day - but what we were able to have was great and all of our guests said the same! The staff on the day was amazing! Well organized and kind :) Thank you again :)

Culinary Catering catered my wedding last week and I have nothing but amazing things to say about the food and service. Throughout the planning process, Heather was responsive, accommodating and made sure that every detail was covered. They were extremely organized on the day of the wedding and made my vision come to life! The wait staff were quick and friendly, and all of our guests loved the food. I would highly recommend them to anyone needing a full-service wedding caterer!

Culinary Catering has been amazing to work with thus far! The whole team, especially Heather, has been responsive, knowledgeable, and has made the planning process manageable. She is a great communicator and responds promptly to any questions and concerns we have had, especially during COVID-19. The team is willing to go above and beyond to make sure details and customized requests are available, and offers creative ideas to make the event perfect!

Used this company for our wedding. The only negative is that they aren't cheap, but then, nobody really is for this type of work. They did an excellent job working with us and helping us achieve what we wanted for the wedding. There was good food, and plenty of it. The people were nice and professional. Our planner was named Laura, and she was superb.

Rachel Janzen

Thank you Heather and CC for the awesome service, fabulous food, and great support from start to finish. We so appreciated it.

I hired Culinary Catering to cater my wedding and I was extremely disappointed with their services. The linens they provided the day of were in unusable condition, ripped and dirty and I had to go without which detracted greatly from my decor. The owner said he would reimburse me for this, but didn't. The team showed up 30 minutes late only giving them an hour and a half to set up which wasn't enough time. I had to go without lemons and limes for my bar service because they didn't have time to cut them up and everyone was scrambling and frantic. It was extremely stressful for me on my wedding day to deal with this I was trying to get my hair done and calling all over trying to find out if my caterers were going to show up. They were to set up a champagne toast and only set out half the glasses so after the ceremony only half my guests got champagne for our toast which was awkward and embarrassing (as well as a waste of money we had spent a lot of money on champagne). They bar staff was rude to my guests I had multiple complaints and they even refused to serve some of the guests juice claiming the bar was closed - they were to have the bar open even during dinner and speeches. One server was so rude we asked to have her sent home. The food was ok but they refused to tell me what the vegetable option was saying they wanted something fresh and seasonal. What they did serve was boiled broccoli and zucchini with raw garlic dumped on it. It seemed they went with the cheapest option and it was very carelessly prepared I had to cut the broccoli 4 times to make it bite size - presentation was very poor. When I called the owner afterward to share my feedback about my experience, the owner was non apologetic and told me it was my fault these things went wrong. I am still waiting for him reimburse me for ripped dirty linens and I think he should have done much more to compensate for this awful experience. Overall they were extremely expensive for what we got, I was only offered 1 appetizer although I paid for 4-6 pieces per person. There were only 75 people there so I'm not sure how they would have missed serving the bride?Using culinary catering was definitely a memorable lowlight for my wedding and if your event is important to you I recommend getting catering services elsewhere.

Culinary Catering really does offer much more than the food for your event - Heather and her team acted more like unofficial wedding planners. Heather was an incredible resource to my husband and I as we were planning our wedding. She always had an answer to our many questions, was willing to meet when we wanted to see the venue again, or was prepared with suggestions for other possible vendors. Our guests all raved about how great the food was and the space was exactly what we were looking for for our special day. It was the first venue we visited and even though we felt obligated to see other spaces, I think we both knew right away it was where we wanted to get married. The team was so accommodating the weekend of our wedding, too; they worked hard to ensure that our vision for the day came to fruition. Thank you again!

I consider myself very lucky that I had Culinary as my caterer on my wedding day. Every member of this company is extremely professional and knowledgeable... They were a great help in finding other wonderful vendors for my wedding. They were always there for me at every stage of my wedding planning. I want to thank "Heather" in particular....I appreciate your leadership and kindness...You made my wedding day unforgettable....

Max Off

Natalia, Joanna, and the rest of the Culinary team were amazing. Made our wedding perfect. Everyone went above and beyond. Every guest commented on how good the food was, and how good looking the groom was. We couldn't have been happier with how everything turned out. Would recommend every time. We will definitely both use Culinary at our next weddings.

I attended a wedding a few weeks ago that was catered by Culinary Catering. I was extremely happy with the food and the service!! The food was delicious and the buffet table was set up very nice. It also included nice fruit and vegetable carvings! I would highly recommend them for any events and would definitely use them in the future.

michael palleschi

We had an amazing experience here, I have used culinary catering multiple times for work and special events. We have never been let down, the food and service culinary provided was incredible. Natalia has been amazing in helping me create amazing events I suggest anyone looking for a premium experience to seek out Culinary Catering.

Amazing food and service

Natalie Finnegan

I had my wedding with Culinary Catering at their venue the Old Court House back in June. We had a little difficulty in the beginning with setting up a tasting (which they discouraged and we did not end up having one) and also our original date being given away. But once we were able to secure a date and iron out the details they were very helpful during the planning process and guiding us with next steps. Our planner Heather stayed in touch and kept us on track! When the big day came, they were flawless in organization, the venue was run so smoothly and the food was fantastic! Our guests could not say enough about the food, they loved it. Thank you Culinary Catering!

Stacey Gord

We had our wedding at Brookside in June this year and Culinary Catering handled everything for the day. I must say, it was the best day ever. I had emailed with Heather in the beginning and she offered to take us on the tour personally and help with the details for our wedding plans. Between all of our conversations and email, I knew we were in the right hands to book our wedding with them. What I liked the most was that the staff worked to make my crazy ideas come to life. They handled everything for me. They showed me how we would put the tables in the room, they showed me linens, customized the menu to make our parents happy and of course covered everything at the bar. On our wedding day, Natalia handled all of my ridiculous requests with delight. She was on top of everything, I almost forgot to cut the cake! I could not have asked for anything more. Plus the food was delicious. I would not change anything from my wedding day. I highly recommend them.

alicia dodds

Very unprofessional, were a nightmare to work with and did not respond to any inquires in a timely manner. Ruined our wedding planning adventure with the horrible customer service, wish we never got involved with this company!

Maureen Groulx

Getting excited for the big day!

Jay McCulloch

Outstanding service and very accommodating to our event. Friendly staff who were polite and professional to deal with. Would recommend them to anyone.

Chris Stanson

After my initial phone call to Sally, I knew I was in good hands. With the challenges of planning a Celebration of Life for my husband , Sally and her incredible team made it happen seamlessly at such a difficult time . Our guests are still talking about the food and its presentation... my husband would be thrilled . Much thanks ladies .

Jennifer Filer

Amazing service, planning a wedding during a pandemic was hard enough but the staff made it so much easier and made our special day go perfect. If anyone in the area are having a wedding I would highly recommend Culinary Catering. All my guest raved about the food and left very full, they even said that this was one of the best wedding food they had.

Steve Rempel

Excellent food and great staff. The whole team is great and easy to work with. Our staff was very happy with the feast!

kelly mawson

My husband and I recently held a ceremony. Culinary, paid attention to all of the little details to ensure our special ceremony went smoothly. The food was amazing and the timing was perfect. No delays or glitches..that I know of. If there were any glitches, Culinary managed it without my knowledge which is more than I can ask. Less stress for me. An important note is that during these covid times they took the time to educate me so that we could ensure all of our guests were safe. I do have to publicly apologize for my ignorance on not only hosting an event but also how it had to be held in these odd times. I was a challenge at times ( i know this) but they were always professional and supportive. Our event was a success in-spite of my ignorance. My guests were safe and the event was a huge success.

Culinary Catering did our wedding at the Old Courthouse. The staff were magnificent, the food was fantastic (including the vegetables) and the venue was stunning. Heather assisted with the planning and her help throughout months leading up to our wedding relieved so much stress. I would absolutely recommend this company to anyone looking to for a professional caterer.

Justin Pilon

To the entire team at Culinary Catering: We can't thank you enough for being a part of our special day. You and your team truly went above and beyond in helping us plan our dream wedding. From working with us to select the ideal venue and suggesting excellent vendors, to helping coordinate our timeline and planning a delicious menu (and wine pairings!) to share with our guests, we are so thankful for your creative and thoughtful approach. The food was definitely a highlight of the evening and we heard so much wonderful feedback from our family and friends. The outdoor cocktail reception, with the beautifully presented antipasto station and passed h'ors d'oeuvres, was a real hit among our guests. We absolutely loved the family-style dinner, and received so many compliments on the plating, unique flavours and attentive service from your staff. You really did a wonderful job capturing our personalities in our first meal as husband and wife. Most of all, we are grateful for you and your staff, who took care of every last detail to make sure we could enjoy every minute of the day together and celebrate, without worry, alongside our family and friends. We are so grateful to all of you for helping us make our wedding such a memorable experience for us and for our guests. We look forward to working with you in the future and would highly recommend your services.

Food was delicious, servers were quick and polite, owners were accommodating and reasonable prices especially for what you get! I highly suggest the chicken tikka masala and penne pasta in vodka blush sauce :)

Pete Eichstedt

We used Culinary Catering for our wedding in July of 2012. Incredible! The food was delicious, the staff was so friendly and helpful. To begin with, WE were very disorganized and uncertain as to what we wanted, and they patiently helped us pick a menu that was delicious for all, but also had gluten free meals for the most important person...the bride. This type of alergy can be a disaster for food, but they knocked it out of the park! On the day, all I could feel was how the staff truly cared about how things were going. We had the wedding at a family members property, and not only did they do the job at hand, they helped us work through situations based on OUR lack of organization. The day went perfectly and they were a major part of achieving that. Thank you for everything!!

Jenny Dortmans

Wonderful to work with - delicious food - very professional - what more can you ask for! Would definitely recommend!
