Love Notes

“Knowing that the food and beverage service is the main thing every guest talks about after a wedding, the selection of a caterer for our daughter’s wedding was of paramount importance to us. We interviewed and scheduled tastings with several companies, and Austin Catering stood alone in several areas – price, taste, professionalism, quality of service and personal attention to detail. Now that the reception is behind us, we couldn’t be more thankful we went with Austin Catering – we have heard nothing but wonderful comments from all of our guests about how the food at our daughter’s wedding was the best they’d ever had – truly better than a restaurant experience, and the china, linens and glassware are all part of the package at Austin Catering – not an “up charge” as we found elsewhere. Kristin Stephens was delightful to work with. She kept in touch with us throughout our year of planning regarding every thought or concern we had; and during the week of our daughter’s wedding, we felt like her only clients – she returned phone calls and emails immediately, setting our minds at ease regarding every detail. If we had this wedding to plan over again, we would skip the other tastings and book Austin Catering right away. It was one of the best decisions we made.“

“Austin Catering provided all the food and rentals for our wedding. They did a fantastic job. Throughout the many months of working with them, they were exceptionally responsive and professional. We worked with Audrey, and together with her team, she helped us in countless ways, revising our contract maybe 20 times without a second thought. The wedding went off without a hitch, the food was truly delicious, and we never worried for a second that it would be any other way. On the food, we are real food snobs, and so are many of our guests, and everyone was impressed. We loved the family style service, it was flawlessly timed, and made the reception feel so warm and communal. Several people have reminisced on how good the salmon was, even a few weeks later! Thank you Audrey and team, for an amazing job. We are so glad we chose to go with Austin Catering.”

“Austin Catering, and specifically Susan Higgins, was a joy to work with. Food was one of my top priorities at the wedding, and it turned out exactly as we hoped, if not better. We were going for a “His & Hers” theme, since I’m from Texas (and love Mexican food) and he’s from St. Louis; we wanted to represent both places in the menu. We received quite a few quotes for our reception dinner, and Susan sent back a menu that was exactly what we wanted at exactly the right price. When we made a request for something that they had never done before (toasted ravioli), she never balked, and the toasted ravioli turned out delicious! Even the St. Louis people, who tend to be snobs about their t-ravs, raved about how they turned out and about the food in general. Throughout the planning process, Susan was very quick to respond to any question or request I had and when we did the tasting a few months before the wedding, I knew we had made the right choice. The food at the wedding for 120 people tasted just as good as the tasting we did for 2. Their staff was very friendly and even made plates for my husband and I so that we could sit down and enjoy the food during dinner. And they sent us away with a to-go box that came in handy later that night. Susan came out to the wedding venue with us to do a walk through and was extremely helpful in more than just the catering aspects, especially since I didn’t have a wedding planner. I would highly recommend Austin Catering for their food, presentation, and service! I only wish I had eaten more of the food at the wedding!”
