Yummy Goodness is exactly right!

Yummy Goodness Catering were such pros, and we are so happy we chose them to cater our daughter’s wedding day. From the very beginning, they made the whole experience so easy, working with my daughter and her fiancé to create a custom menu of their favorite foods. They were so helpful throughout the planning process and were so patient with us when we kept changing up the menu! And most importantly the food was just exceptional, so delicious we even had guests making a point to let us know. We highly recommend them to anyone looking for a top-notch catering company for their wedding!

BEST wedding food ever

Yummy goodness is amazing to work with. From the food tasting to the actual wedding day, I loved it. We even changed a part of the menu a month or so before the wedding and they were super flexible and accommodating. Our menu was brisket and chicken and waffles, with potato wedges, salad, and more. It was so good. They also sent us home with a ton of leftovers which we enjoyed the entire week after. They took amazing care of us and I will forever reccomend them to friends and family.

Yummy Greatness

I recommend Yummy Goodness for EVERYTHING. Every event, party, random Tuesday evening. Lori and chef Kellie and all of the staff were absolutely wonderful. From the first contact all the way through the day-of, Lori was extremely kind, patient and responsive. The tasting was fantastic. We were supposed to have four people there, but life happens, so it wound up being only my mom and me. We ate well, and then Lori brought out trays for us to take the leftovers home to those who couldn't make it. We all ate well for days. Lori was helpful in taking care of all the little changes and additions to the menu. She was great in advising about rentals for plates, glassware, silverware and other necessities.
We also used them for our bar/alcohol service. It was so nice to have them insured and ABC licensed. They worked with us on signature drinks for the cocktail hour and with the beer selection we wanted.
Lori and Rhonda from Hunt Club Farm worked well together and met on their own to decide the layouts and locations for food, bar and staging.
I wish I could go back and attend as a guest. As the bride, I didn't get to partake in the cocktail hour because we were taking pictures. The dinner was wonderful.
The one suggestion I would make would be to cut the chicken breasts in the Cordon Bleu in half or thirds. They were GIGANTIC! Usually that would be fantastic, but for a buffet, it was a little unwieldy. It would also be nice to have a mini cocktail snack table for the wedding party at the main photograph site. We didn't get to partake in any of the cocktail snacks except when the photographer brought some of the candied bacon over for tasting. It would be a nice touch and easy to put together.
