I worked with Holly, Brian, Aspen, and team on two events in February 2024. They were amazing! Food was great. The team was wonderful to work with. They knew the venues so well and were able to make some great recommendations to make our event a success. All of the staff were polite and helpful. We look forward to working with them again in the future!

Great food and great service! Picking out our menu was super easy with Alexis, and we got many compliments on the food at our wedding! Highly recommend! We especially loved the mini desserts :) The chocolate pot de creme was out of this world. We also used their mini bathtub to hold the lavender lemonade "potion bottles," which were a huge hit.

We absolutely loved having this company provide our food and service for our wedding. Everyone was pleasant and friendly to us and all our guests, and the food was phenomenal. There was never once an empty cup in anyone’s seat. The bread was absolutely delicious and the staff was so quick to refill it for us! Everything was amazing. I wouldn’t have changed a thing!

We used Occassions for our wedding and they were amazing! We had a very involved and custom cocktail hour setup and they executed it perfectly. They were also so very helpful with making recommendations & collaborating with us on setup and what will be the best experience for our guests.They handled so many things that I didn't expect our caterers to handle. They helped us come up with the best floorplan for tables for our space and sent us all materials to be shared with other vendors once we locked down our floorplan.I really cannot thank the Occassions team and Alexis enough. They were amazing from start to finish.
Dane Cole
Excellent handling of our wedding beforehand with food and beverage! Warm welcoming and attentive! Looking forward to a wonderful day with them on the 10th! Highly recommend!

Overall, we had a positive, but mixed experience with our wedding catering experience. The food portion of the night was fantastic but the bar portion was poor.The Good:-Staff was really polite and we felt well taken care of.-Entrees were great. Everyone loved our menu. Zero complaints here.-Plated meal was timely and there were no mixups to our knowledge.-Everything looked great and everything was put together professionally-Tasting was great and gave us confidence that our event would be amazing.The Bad:-Some hors d'oeurvres were lukewarm or cold-We paid for their deluxe bar package. Our bar menu completely changed the week of the wedding and it kind of felt like they were trying to pull the wool over our eyes. Not one bar menu item was the same to what we agreed to prior. We were told things like "Jameson is unavailable" etc. I spoke with distributor friends and they said this was unlikely.-After I CC'd management on e-mails, we were all of a sudden able to have most of our original bar menu. This led us to believe there was a lack of effort or attention to detail.-Signage they created for us was misspelled.-Signature drink was initially wrong after discussing in detail.-We ran out of Jameson within a half hour of the reception. Team had to run to the store to get more.-Bar consistently ran out of ice and seemed unprepared, causing there to be a constant line. Operation seemed amateur.-They did not give us the remaining opened bottles of liquor at the end of the night.

We chose Occasions Catering through our venue, who only had the best things to say about this company! The presentation of the food was not only beautiful, but convenient for guests since we went with their recommendation of stations. During our tasting we had a couple of minor changes and tweaks we wanted to implement, and when we tried our food on wedding day, they had taken everything we had said to heart and the meal was FANTASTIC! Our guests raved about the dinner and dessert. They also were involved in table settings, and you can tell that they have not only a knack for cooking, but also for design! I could go on and on… Alexis is a dream to work with and so professional. You can tell she cares about her client and business relationships, and with her you can feel totally at ease! Thank you all so much!!! Everything was a dream!

Highly recommend Occasions to handle your wedding catering needs. The food was fantastic, their staff was very on point and ensured the evening went smoothly and Katie and Kristen made the process very easy! We hired Occasions for okie wedding catering for our wedding on 10/22/22 in Morrison, CO, they supplied appetizers, salads, entrees, desserts and handled the bar, set up our centerpieces, cut our cake, brought us champagne & appetizers while we took photos, etc. The planning process was smooth and Katie ensured all of my needs were met. Kristen was our day of contract and was incredible! I would hire them again for any catering needs!

We used Occasions Catering in 2001 for our 330 person wedding & it was everything we imagined! Fast forward to 2022 & we still use them for catering events, take and heat meals and holidays! Check them out at History Colorado Center or Grant Humphreys Mansion as the exclusive caterer now too.
The food itself was pretty good. However, the customer service is the reason for the poor rating. We had issues reaching our representative on a very consistent basis. Our menu was incorrect the week before the wedding and we were informed of a missing decoration that the caterer was in charge of three days before the wedding. Our representative seemed distracted and unavailable during video calls. Our caterer was our most stressful vendor even though we had finalized details months in advance. Great food but we do not recommend.

I worked with Alexis and Sydney for my wedding and they were amazing. The food was out of this world but the attention to detail and incredible effort from Alexis and her team will stick with me as well! Alexis was a huge help and really went the extra mile - she did Incredible work with the floor plans and so many other details. Would recommend Alexis and Occasions any day!
Quincy Harris
I am a wedding planner and I got to work a wedding with Occasions in September. They were great to work with and their presentation was beautiful. Quality of food was high and I would definitely recommend them!

Alyssa and her team blew us away with all their help with our wedding. The food was incredible as well! This team will help you with far more than the amazing food - I would recommend them!
Megan Hanna
The team at Occasions were great to work with for our wedding. They curated a menu for our big day that matched exactly what we wanted. We were able to do our tasting, where we not only tasted our menu items, but also saw what the place settings would look like and the options that there were. It was a great experience. On the day of, the catering team was timely and professional. The food turned out incredible and we couldn’t have asked for anything better. Our guests even commented on how good the food was. It was delicious and presented so well. Overall, if you’re looking for a reliable and tasty catering company, look no further!
