Bill and Wendy are FAB!

I cannot begin to express how great Wendy and Bill were to work with. My fiance and I were originally going to get married in June of 2020. We hired an event coordinator to help us facilitate planning, vendors etc. etc. We picked Ocean Gateway as our venue which is a blank slate. Our event coordinator was pushing another caterer that she worked with often onto us. After rescheduling our call multiple times, being late for said call, talking over us the whole time, and then delivering a proposal that didn't match anything we asked for, I started doing my own research. I came across For the Love of Food and reached out. Wendy responded right away and set up a call with my Fiance and I. We explained that we were looking for food and bar services for about 185 guests, and wanted to have food stations that allowed people to eat whenever they wanted. Wendy worked with us to create a full menu that included an array of passed apps, and food stations that included a taco, sushi, lobster roll, and dessert stations just to name a few. She put together a full bar package and made suggestions on fun signature drinks. We even went up to meet with her and Bill at their cafe prior to the 2020 wedding date. We ended up moving our wedding 4 times due to covid, and Bill and Wendy stayed with us the whole time (2+ years). Wendy checked in over the years, and in the weeks leading up to the wedding, went back over everything with us and made sure we had it all covered. The day of the wedding, she came up to us and said she had put a plate of food down for us, and honestly thank goodness for that because it was the only food I ate during the wedding. All of our guests said the food was wonderful, and definitely had plenty to drink. We also got a lot of comments from guests on how wonderful the catering staff was from food service to bartenders. Also, the pricing was reasonable and clearly communicated to us from the beginning. They did not come back and change things on us (we had this experience with another vendor) as we went. Overall they were amazing to work with and I cannot say enough good things about them!!!

Exceptional Catering and Coordination: A Perfect Wedding Experience

Wendy and her team at For the Love of Food & Drink provided exceptional catering services for our wedding weekend. Their prices are incredibly reasonable, and the food is absolutely delicious. We first experienced their culinary delights at their charming café in Wells, where the food impressed us just as much as it did at our wedding. The staff at For the Love of Food & Drink were friendly, accommodating, and helpful throughout the entire process.

They catered both our rehearsal dinner and wedding day, paying special attention to our sister-in-law’s gluten-free needs. The team took great care in communicating with her about which offerings were gluten-free, ensuring she felt included and cared for. Our guests couldn't stop complimenting both the fantastic food and the terrific team.

Wendy also took on the role of our wedding coordinator, managing the complex logistics of our wedding day with grace and a positive, adaptable attitude despite the rain and numerous moving parts (like moving the cocktail hour to the barn at the last minute).

Their hard work, excellent communication during the planning stages, and attention to small but meaningful details, like bringing the groom's favorite hot sauce for the rehearsal dinner, made our experience truly memorable. We highly recommend For the Love of Food & Drink for any event.
