Highly Recommend!

Adrienne at Wooden Nickel was so wonderful to work with for catering for our wedding! We had multiple postponements d/t Covid and was so so kind and accommodating. The food and service was excellent and the price was great! We would highly recommend!

Great Catering at a Great Price

Wooden Nickel were amazing! As my now-husband and I began shopping for wedding catering, we were shocked at how expensive some local caterers were. Fortunately, we found Wooden Nickel at the Willamette Heritage Center wedding show! Their cost was reasonable (half of other quotes!) and we had tons of choices above and beyond a BBQ menu. Our guests were so complementary of the food AND the service. Their reasonable cost meant we could invite everyone in the family. Thank you Adrienne and Wooden Nickel!

Adrienne at Wooden Nickel was amazing to work with she worked with my budget and honestly my catering was the only non stress filler part of my wedding. Adrienne made it such an amazing experience. The food at our wedding was delicious, guests even commented about it. Once I was received a quote from Adrienne it became quite clear that Wooden Nickle was the best choice for us since their pricing is very all inclusive. They provided us with the wedding package everything was very upfront and laid back, but made it so much more apparent I had chosen the right caterer. It was awesome that you are able to upgrade your plastic plates/utensils for water service, etc. to make it customized to our needs. I was very thankful that they allowrd me to bring in my personal China for the event and allowed me to work with my budget. I was very happy with my experience and I would with out a doubt recommend them to any family that may be in the market for catering. I don't think I could have chosen a more professional, accommodating, good food, and great service option. My day was made even better by this vendor.
