About

WhoaNelly! Catering is a moveable feast.

We believe that while every event is unique, there are certain principles which are constant:

•use the best ingredients
•handle them with care, and
•serve them with love.

In this way, although we have traveled far and wide with our food, the core of what we do remains the same. We are passionate about the food we make, and we are excited to share it.

This is more than catering– this is our commitment to embracing good food and wine as part of a lifestyle filled with, “happiness, well-being, and delight”.

Amazing food

My husband and I are big foodies - we knew the food at our wedding was really important to us going into the planning process. WhoaNelly was incredible from their tasting all the way through our wedding day. The team was so helpful and attentive - and the food was beyond. From the tasting until our wedding day my husband and I would bring up how excited we were to eat their food at our wedding! Our guests raved about the food too! They're going to be our go-to caterers for events from now on, we really loved our experience with them!

Delicious and impeccable!

We had initially booked Little Nelly for our wedding this past October, however my planner told me they shifted gears to focus on smaller gatherings and technically were no longer catering weddings. The good news was our contract basically just got moved over to Whoa Nelly and they honored the pricing and all menu items, so the transition was completely seamless!

Naomi was very professional and prompt in responding to my emails during the inquiry process and Corinna made our tasting experience very enjoyable. We did family style service which also included passed appetizers and table-side wine service, and everything ran like a well-oiled machine. Guests raved about the food, some mentioning they took multiple servings--even one of my friends who got the silent vegan option said she had two plates!

On top of that, their staff always made sure my husband and I were taken care of and checked in often to see if we needed anything. Especially on a day as hectic as your wedding day, it was a lovely touch and just goes to show how much their staff pays attention to the small details.

I'm so happy that we booked Whoa Nelly for our special day--highly recommend getting them to cater your event!

Best of the best!

We used Little Nelly for our wedding at The Lautner Compound in May 2019. From start to finish they were so wonderful to work with!

We did a group tasting with them that was fun and really the perfect way to get to try everything they had to offer! The food was incredible and the cost was very fair and fit in our budget. The Little Nelly team was responsive, enthusiastic and professional through the whole planning process! They helped us through everything we needed to rent all the kitchen equipment they needed (our venue didn't have a kitchen!) and made sure we stayed as economical as possible.

The day of, the whole team was on time and provided impeccable family style dinner service! All our guests raved about how delicious the food was and how wonderful the staff! We could not have asked for more. We also ordered our cake through Little Nelly and it was perfection. Simple, chic and SO SO GOOD.

We are so please with our entire experience with Little Nelly, they really are the best of the best!
