Delicious, Knowledgeable, and Great to Work With

We used Genesis Delight Catering for our June 2024 wedding and they were wonderful to work with and the food was great! Lindsey was our coordinator through out the planning process and went above and beyond to help us plan our wedding. Lindsey was responsive, knowledgeable and wonderful to work with; emails were prompt and she helped us think ahead about all the details we needed to stay on top of. We provided our own alcohol for the wedding and Lindsey was super helpful in identifying the appropriate quantities and ensuring we were all set for the big day! We also really appreciated how accommodating Genesis was as we updated our floor plans/seating chart as we approached the wedding; as numbers changed they helped us update our tables and chairs and stayed on top of all our changing details. They were accommodating in setting up our tables and chairs a day early so we could more easily do our decorating; and the tables and chairs looked great! Their staff on the day of the wedding was professional, friendly and provided great service. The food came out wonderfully and we had numerous people say how good everything tasted! We highly recommend working with Genesis Delight Catering - they helped make our day so special and delicious!

TERRIFIC, Professional Caterer

Lindsay did an amazing job of working with us to create a custom menu for our daughter's recent wedding. It was not easy - we asked for a custom pork dish from Nicaragua and a number of special side dishes, and the chef NAILED it. Paired with the chicken with poblano cream sauce and other items from their extensive and interesting menu options, and we had a terrific buffet to offer our guests. We also offered 2 signature cocktails and several lovely appetizers that pleased our highly varied guests (vegans, vegetarians, pescatarians, folks who can't eat gluten/lactose, ETC) and received ENDLESS compliments on the food.

Wedding Caterer

Working with Genesis Delight, and Lindsay in particular, was great from beginning to end. The proposal, tasting, communication, and all other things that come up in between, was great. Working with Genesis was easy and stress free, and the food was delicious (according to me and my husband, but also all of our family and friends)! The ability to work with one caterer who could handle everything seamlessly was awesome!
