I would absolutely recommend Lisa's Bon Appetit! The food was a huge hit, Jenna and her team were efficient and professional in both the setup and breakdown of the whole event, they just helped to make our wedding amazing and everything went so smoothly. Jenna was also extremely flexible and such a champ with my food indecisiveness! Do yourself a favor and use Lisa's Bon Appetit for your wedding! Thanks guys!!!

Very easy to work with and did an excellent job. They delivered what they said, on time, and cleaned up spotlessly.
