GHC was the best choice I made for my wedding!! Without them I'm not sure I would have made it through my reception. They were always willing to help and with every crazy change I made, their reaction was flawless!! If you don't choose them to cater your event, you have misssd an opportunity of a lifetime!! Loved them sooooo much❤️❤️❤️

I have hired GHI catering for a wedding that will be in May of 2016. Vince and Travis have been wonderful in preparing a complete catering package for us that is wonderful and affordable. They have prepared a tasting from their food truck that was delicious and even done a venue consultation. We are so excited to be working with them and can't wait for the event.

Wow, it's almost hard to put into words how amazing our experience was with Gotta Have It Catering. This is an awesome company and has been since my first interaction with them. Vince, Angie, Courtney and Travis are exceptional at what they do. They understand how chaotic planning a wedding can be and they are great about easing the stresses with their knowledge, advice, and patience with my updates and changes. They could not have been more accommodating. The tasting was amazing and is what sealed the deal. My husband and I took part in 9 tastings/consultations with other catering companies - Vince and his team wowed us with their food selections, how they presented the food and the taste. They really are awesome to work with and eager to meet with you to problem-solve, plan, and prepare an event you and your guests will be talking about for years to come. Choosing them to be a part of my team was the BEST decision I made during the planning process. I will definitely use them in the future. Absolutely book them as your catering team and let them show you how awesome they are. Travis is a wizard with his mad DJ skills. He kept our guests dancing the entire time and was great at being in charge of the flow of our reception and keeping us on schedule. Obviously, I can't compliment them enough, book them and you will be set : )

I had to choose a caterer for my daughter's wedding, relying only on reviews from Thumbtack, since I live more than 650 miles away. I could not have been happier with the interactions I had with Vince Marra before the wedding. He suggested a menu which was interesting and well balanced and received many compliments. Nothing was too hard for him or his crew. They supplied plates of "children-food" for small guests, heated up and plated some food for a guest with special needs, kept everything coming along at just the right time, and made it all look effortless and elegant. The carver and the servers were as pleasant and gracious as they could possibly be (I wish I knew their names!) and Travis, who was in charge of our event, handled every request cheerfully, speedily, and so very competently. This whole experience has taught me a lot about trusting professionals to do what they do! I loved working with "Gotta Have It."
