HORRIFIED is the only word I can think of to describe my experience. I booked Occasions Catering in March of 2020 for my April 2021 Wedding. We had an in person tasting on February 15, 2021 and Meghan wrote down all of our choices. We discussed every detail from bartenders, to cake cutting, everything. Fast forward to a few weeks ago, we reached out to give our final numbers and request final invoice and Meghan would not answer our phone calls, texts, or emails. When she finally did, she said she did not have our final menu choices and did not recall a single detail from our in person tasting/meeting! We became concerned at that point, but asked her to send us the final invoice after we reiterated all of our choices and details. She said she would send, but never did. She stopped answering us again, so we asked our venue (who had highly recommended them) if they could get a hold of Meghan. Meghan finally answered our venue owner to say she could no longer do our wedding. She said that she knew back in December of 2020 that she probably wasn't going to be able to do our wedding, but strung us along and waited until the LAST possible minute to tell us this. I booked the caterer first because this is one of the bigger ticket items and I budgeted everything else from there. So to leave us hanging just 24 days before our wedding was horrific. She said the owner, Marcus Penick, had not paid her for the last few events and that was why she couldn't do the wedding. The owner, Marcus Penick would not confirm or deny that. He said she told him we didn't give her our final choices and that was the reason she canceled on us. None of it makes sense, the stories are conflicting and I do not think we will ever hear the truth of what really went on and the real reason for this disaster. Regardless, it was a very stressful situation to be put in. Meghan did connect us with another caterer but to be honest I do not trust a word that comes out of her mouth, so why would I trust her recommendation? One of the only caterers we found that was available this last minute was $6,000 more than I had budgeted. HUGE blow. I am writing this review so that this does not happen to someone else. THE CRAZIEST part... Meghan is still answering the business telephone and taking on new clients and events... WHAT IN THE WORLD? Beware.

I would give them zero stars if I could. They cut into my wedding cake before we did and then gave me an attitude about requesting a refund on any services regarding the cake. I was more then happy to pay for all the passed appetizers, pasta bar, buffett, bartender, staff and rentals of place settings. When I made a poor review they publicly attacked me stating that I hadn't paid my invoice to the last minute, which simply wasn't true. Highly disappointed with this company and would not recommend. I recommend spending a little extra to go with a company that is more organised. I'll never get that moment back to be able to cut my own wedding cake.

Hiring Occasions Catering for my wedding is a decision I would make over and over again! From wonderful communication via email to experiencing their delicious food at our tasting, we knew very quickly that we wanted Occasions to be part of our special day. Meghan, as well as everyone else we worked with, was always professional, prompt, and so much fun to work with. When our original venue unexpectedly closed their doors and then the COVID pandemic hit, Occasions took an active role in helping us make new plans and consistently offered their help with tasks not even related to the food. They are just wonderful and talented people! The food on our wedding day was delicious and the service was wonderful- many of our guests commented on how impressed they were. I could not recommend Occasions more highly, and we are so grateful to them for helping make our day so special!
