We recently had the pleasure of having Chef Tom & Christina cater our intimate 20-person wedding, and we couldn't be happier with their service. The food was not only delicious but also presented with such creativity that it became a talking point among our guests. Chef Tom & Christina were fantastic to work with, meticulously organizing every detail and ensuring everything ran smoothly on the day. They blended seamlessly with our guests, enhancing everyone's enjoyment of the event. We highly recommend them for any special occasion!

We had a wonderful evening with chef Tom! We had him for a 15 person dinner to kick off a wedding weekend and it truly exceeded expectations. It was not only beautifully presented but tasted amazing. Anytime we are back in the area we will for sure be connecting with Tom!
