Had the buffet with creamy pesto tortellini, chicken, roast beef with horseradish sauce, mashed potatoes, rolls, salad. Also since we had over 100 people they included the bruschetta station at mh cocktail hour. They cut the cake for us and also has a great coffee bar for dessert time. Only regret is that i didnt grab seconds before they were done for the night. Communication went great with peter and i had all questions answered in a timely matter. All of my guests also loved the food. Now when people talk about my wedding they always say the food was great. Definitely want to use them again in the future.

We had glowing reviews about the food at our wedding! Everyone loved the butter board and passed appetizers. Dinner was served smoothly and they cut and plated our cake for guests. The communication with them was the least stressful part of the whole planning process from trying the samples to day of.

Peter and staff at Christiani’s took very good care of our wedding catering. They were always very responsive and answered all of the questions we would email over throughout our wedding planning process. The staff at the wedding reception were very polite and were managing the tables with drink refills and removal of dirty dishes frequently. The food is also amazing! So many complements from our guests.

We selected Christiani's for our wedding caterer and could not recommend them more highly. The service and food was amazing the day of but more importantly Peter and team communicated throughout the process which gave us comfort that everything would be taken care of. We pray we don't have another wedding for ourselves but will use Christiani's for any other catering need going forward.

We had Christiani's Catering for our wedding (June 2023), and they were fantastic! Easy to communicate with, welcoming to questions, and just overall friendly and easy to work with. For our tasting they gave us PLENTY of food which made it easy to pick our menu. Their food was wonderful and we recieved many compliments from our guests. They were also great with food restrictions. My vegan friends told me this was the best catered meal they had ever had!

Christiani's was on our short list of caterer's we wanted for our wedding, and after an amazing tasting, we knew they were the one. The were incredibly easy to work work with prior to the wedding to plan our perfect menu. On the day of our wedding, they delivered with amazing food and a friendly staff with a particular attention to details. We would highly recommend Christiani's for any event!

I write this with all the facts provided. 1. Setting up was very stressful to the crew. They were frustrated by the placement of things the party had set up. 2. Food: some food like "hot" meat was room temperature. 3. Dessert: the couple had requested a few plates for their small cake. This request was denied and a large disruption was made. Patiently waiting another server gave me a few plastic plates. Much of the food was ok. We look forward to future improvements to service and warmth!

We used Christiani’s for our wedding caterer and couldn’t have been happier! My husband comes from an Italian family so we really wanted pasta and Christianis delivered. We got texts about the pesto tortellini for days after the wedding, and they were SO accommodating for allergies. Peter was fantastic and easy to work with!

I planned our daughters wedding from over 1,000 miles away. Christiani's VIP Catering Service was recommended to us by Country Lane Lodge. We were so very pleased with every aspect of this company. The food was delicious and the staff was professional and pleasant. Peter responded to all my questions very quickly and could not be more helpful. I would highly recommend them.

We had Christiani's Catering prepare the dinner for our wedding and the food was beyond DELICIOUS! They made dinner service a breeze and their staff was very professional! They brought an abundance of staff to the venue to make the dinner service quick. Our guests were extremely satisfied by the Drunken Steak, Cornbread Stuffed Chicken and Manicotti options. They worked with us on our many dietary needs, providing a great meal for everyone! I would recommend Christiani's Catering for all of your dinner needs.
