Amazing food
Peter at Purple Olive was very easy to work with. From our tasting at the restaurant to our wedding night, we felt very confident in the service and food quality that he provided. He has several different inspired menus to pick from. He was flexible and provided great suggestions as we were choosing our menus. We decided to go with buffet and had plated appetizers being passed during cocktail hour. The food was all amazing but the appetizers were to die for!! Luckily when my husband and I got back to our table, Peter's team had left us a plate of our own appetizers so that we were able to enjoy them as well. The waiting staff and bartenders were professional and friendly! Thank you so much for being a part of our day and the amazing food Peter and team!Peter at Purple Olive was very easy to work with.

Purple Olive - Peter and his team are incredible!
Peter and his team were incredible! Peter was very flexible and understanding when our guest count dropped by more than half due to COVID. All of the food was sooo delicious - so many guests were raving about it, you never hear that about wedding food. My personal favorite was the seafood pasta in a chardonnay cream sauce but so many people wouldn't stop talking about the prime rib. During cocktail hour, they brought a big plate of appies for the groom and I to enjoy off by ourselves which was so great.
Can't wait for our next St Auggie visit so we can go eat at the restaurant and relive our wedding food!Peter and his team were incredible!

Excellent in every way
Fabulous! Delicious! Foodie approved!! The Purple Olive made our reception dinner a meal that was worth celebrating! The butler passed appetizers were amazing. Blackened ahi tuna on a cucumber with sweet chili mustard were a huge hit. As were the empanada; all six the perfect start to our wedding. Peter and the staff were so wonderful to work with and so accommodating with last minute numbers due to Covid. The bottom line, you want the food to be a high point and Purple Olive delivered in spades. Loved our food!Fabulous! Delicious! Foodie approved!!

Best food ever!
Cannot begin to explain how amazing Peter and his staff are! First, the food was absolutely delicious. So many people that saw us after the wedding told us that their food was so good, especially the filet. My dad is such a picky eater and he was even telling me how much he enjoyed his meal (not only that, Peter made my dad a special salad for the wedding too because he is so picky). His staff was so friendly and even interacted with our guests when appropriate. I got sooooo many compliments!
We had a huge drop in numbers from our original wedding as well as I changed it from buffet to plated about 2 months before our wedding because of COVID and Peter gave me no issues about the changes and also worked with me through them.
About 2 weeks before the wedding I decided to eliminate our cocktail hour due to COVID (our ceremony was off site) and do a plated appetizer while people were seated at their tables. Peter was totally on board and made it happen! I think it turned out amazing even though he said he hadn't really done it that way before.
So if you want freaking delicious food and a laid back vendor that rolls with the punches (when you're already stressed to the max with all the wedding planning/COVID stuff to begin with), Peter and his staff are it!Cannot begin to explain how amazing Peter and his staff are!

Irresistibly Delicious
We could not be more pleased with our decision to have Purple Olive cater our wedding. The food was incredible. From the array of appetizers during Cocktail Hour, to the buffet where second and third trips were a must, Peter and his entire crew left everyone buzzing. If you want to leave your guests with food that they will be talking about for years to come, then choose Purple Olive. You'll be glad you did!We could not be more pleased with our decision to have Purple Olive cater our wedding. The food was incredible.

Awesome Food! Not wedding food!!
Peter and staff did a remarkable job of feeding 170 guests in record time- and the food was hot and delicious!! Our guests would not stop raving about their entrees! Personally, I had the pecan crusted salmon with the orange bourbon cream sauce! It was out of this world! Peter was excellent to work with and he hires the best staff to work his events! From my first call to tastings to the actual event- Peter and team were easy to work with and provided an incredible menu for our guests! They even provided appetizers for the bridal party in the suites and the vault!Peter and staff did a remarkable job of feeding 170 guests in record time- and the food was hot and delicious!!

Delicious food, PROFESSIONAL service!
Purple Olive really surprised us! We had been to three other tastings before and nothing compared. Chef and Owner Peter Kenney was soo professional and very flexible with our menu items. Our venue did not provide a kitchen and they were able to bring their own mobile kitchen to cook all the food fresh. The "Shrimp, Artichoke, Spinach, Roasted Garlic, and Cavatappi Pasta tossed with Chardonnay Cream Sauce" was to DIE FOR and they have very unique appetizers. They were easy to get ahold of, quick to respond, and reasonably priced.Purple Olive really surprised us! We had been to three other tastings before and nothing compared.

Exceeded every expectation!
Peter and his crew are not just your average wedding caterer. Of course, you have to start with the food. It was amazing! I was apprehensive to go with a buffet, but Peter ensured quality would not suffer. Everyone has been raving about the food even a month after the wedding. The service was quick and with a smile. I can’t imagine a way they could have improved.
There were two instances where Peter and his team went above and beyond the call of duty. It began to sprinkle about 30 minutes before my outside ceremony. To help the rush of guests with nowhere to sit, they opened the bar an hour before originally planned. Then, when the rain subsided, they had every crew member wiping off seats. This would have taken a lot longer without their help, and they offered it with no request. They saw what needed to be done for the event to succeed, and I am so thankful.

Pete and his staff at Purple Olive did an amazing job at our recent wedding. From our first meeting, Pete had great suggestions from food selections to presentation to make our day exceptional. His ideas were perfect, and we've had rave reviews about the food from all the guests we spoke with. Pete was professional, courteous, and took care of little details that came up without feeling the need to bother my husband or myself. I would highly recommend Purple Olive for any catering needs.

When we booked our reception venue and I asked about their preferred caterer list, they told me "Purple Olive should charge more than they do. If they're available on your date, you want them." And it was completely true. Peter and his team created a fantastic gluten free menu for us. The passed appetizers during the cocktail hour were all outstanding and our buffet line had 3 main dish options that were all delicious. The team that came to serve at our event was extremely professional and did a wonderful job, even bringing a plate of appetizers to the bridal suite during the cocktail hour for my husband and me to enjoy quietly before we went out to mingle with our guests.
Email Peter. Tell him what you're looking for, then set up a tasting at the restaurant. You won't be disappointed.When we booked our reception venue and I asked about their preferred caterer list, they told me "Purple Olive should charge more than they do.

You know you're in good hands when you tell other vendors your cater is Purple Olive and their immediate response is "Love Purple Olive! Peter is amazing." I planned my wedding from out of state and I definitely wanted to secure a good cater. The Purple Olive is very highly reviewed and I knew if I waited, Peter may be booked for my wedding date. So, I booked Purple Olive without doing any tasting of the food. Best decision ever! My husband and I got a chance to do a tasting a month before the wedding and was able to tweak our menu. Peter was so great with the changes! He even suggested a few things to make our wedding menu even better!

I was recommended to use Purple Olive by my wedding planner Katy with Coastal Coordinating. My husband and I couldn't have been happier with our choice. It was really great working with Peter and his staff. To this day everyone keeps talking about how great the food was and how organized his waitstaff was at the wedding. Our guests especially loved the appetizers we selected. Many of our guests had gluten free allergies and Peter's staff did a great job of making sure those guests were served the appropriate food. A few of our guests changed their mind the day of the wedding for the vegetarian plate and Peter's staff made those accommodations for them without hesitation. Overall, Peter and his staff went above and beyond to accommodate our guests at our wedding. I couldn't say better things about them...the food and service they provide is truly excellent!I was recommended to use Purple Olive by my wedding planner Katy with Coastal Coordinating.

After an extensive search for affordable and delicious food in the St. Augustine area, no one could match the food quality and price point of Purple Olive. We had a seated dinner of 250 guests and our main concerns were food quality and service; Purple Olive delivered exceptional results. They were accommodating to guests with food allergies and even offered a vegan option. The Purple Olive service was timely for food delivery and everyone was served at nearly the same time and the food was HOT. For a guest count of 250 adults plus children, this was a feat. Based on our wedding day, we give Purple Olive the highest form of praise and flattery.After an extensive search for affordable and delicious food in the St. Augustine area, no one could match the food quality and price point of Purple Olive.

We are thrilled we chose Purple Olive for our wedding. They are not only great people, but deliver food above and beyond expectations. The staff was so easy to work with and made the process so easy, answering and accommodating every question and concern along the way. If you are looking for an all around great catering company for your event, this is the one to choose. We can't thank you and your staff enough for going above and beyond for our wedding! :)We are thrilled we chose Purple Olive for our wedding.

If you are getting married in St. Augustine, Purple Olive is the way to go! Pete and his team did an AMAZING job at our wedding at the Fountain of Youth. There is no kitchen there but Pete had his catering truck and everything was better than we could have ever imagined. I am vegetarian and he created a unique and delicious menu for our reception. He made a few dishes for our gluten free guests also. He brings all the plates, silverware, servers, bartenders, glasses, etc. We added the bar package (mixers, fruit, napkins) so he stocked the bars minus the booze which we bought at ABC and dropped off to him the week of the wedding. All of his staff were great too! Our guests were raving about how good the food was and how much there was. I cannot thank Purple Olive enough for the fabulous job they did for us. You cannot go wrong with them! Worth every penny. Thanks, Pete!!!If you are getting married in St. Augustine, Purple Olive is the way to go!
