I am getting married on 11/22/14 and have worked with some people who have used your catering for their reception. Can you let me know your availability as well as price points/packages, etc.? We aren’t doing a sit down dinner reception, yet we are southern foodies and want cocktail style, heavy hor’devours/food station type food, yet we have a budget we’re really trying to stick to. Thank you so much in advance and I hope to hear back from you soon!
STF Catering did a wonderful job creating the perfect menu for my daughter’s wedding on June 29th, 2013. I am still getting rave reviews from my family on how excellent the food was!! What I love about Joelle is she provides extra special touches that no other catering company provides. We still have one more daughter living at home and she has already told me she wants them to cater her wedding!! They by far take the extra mile to provide you with superior quality food and service. I guarantee you will not be disappointed!!! Wedding: 06/29/2013
Savor the Flavor’s cuisine was exquisite and perfect for our wedding. They took interest in the types of foods we like through interviewing all of us. During our tasting they took notes and tweaked the recipes to our taste. Savor the Flavor worked so well with our coordinators and florists to make the presentation picturesque. Our highest priority was that our guests ate well and enjoyed the cuisine. Throughout the reception we kept hearing over and over how wonderful the food was and how elegantly it was displayed. We continue to receive calls from guests sharing how impressed they were with all the touches, like the coffee and smore’s bar! The staff was polite, helpful and had one continuous smile. We will use Savor the Flavor again and highly recommend them for any event! Wedding: 10/06/2012
I contracted with Savor the Flavor for my wedding after cancelling with another caterer. The experience with the first left me feeling pretty crappy and nervous about the whole thing, but that went away after one phone call with Joelle (at 9 p.m. on a Friday the same day of my first call), who assured me they could throw down good Southern food, help with turning over our ceremony room into a reception room, handle the bar, and do it all at about the same price we’d already budgeted for the cancelled contract.
All of this turned out just as we hoped. Delicious apps (shrimp and grit cakes were a hit), buffet style panko chicken and pork loin, amazing mac and cheese and sweet potatoes, etc. Several people told us it was the best food they’d had at a wedding (especially the Northern Yankees ;), and the servers working the bar even used our karaoke wedding theme to label our signature sweet tea drink the “Sweet Caroline,” a touch I hadn’t thought of. Bottom line, we enjoyed the night and didn’t have to worry about a thing. I struggle to provide some kind of a negative, as I tend to be distrustful myself of overly stellar reviews when I was hunting for someone. But I’m not going to make something up. Just trust me. They’re awesome people, their food is awesome, and I’d recommend them in good conscience to anyone. Wedding: 04/21/2012
The ladies at Savor the Flavor were absolutely amazing in every way. I cannot say enough good things about them. Not only did they help us plan a menu that was perfectly tailored for us and our guests, they also helped plan a signature cocktail and provided fantastic help on the day of our wedding. We never wanted for anything. If a glass was empty, a member of their staff was on hand to fill it. They even made plates for us so we didn’t have to get near the buffet and risk a disaster with our dresses, and when it was all over, they packed to-go plates for us! I would recommend them to anyone looking for good value, a great experience, and some wonderful memories with a vendor that will treat you like family instead of an obligation or a paycheck.
