For The Love of Food & Drink was everything we hoped for and more! The food was delicious and the staff was amazing! We had a bourbon tasting where we wanted the bartender to be engaged with our guests she did just that. The Chef was just as engaged with our guests which we loved. We will definitely be using them again!

Bill & Wendy are AMAZING!!! We are so incredibly blessed to have For the Love of Food & Drink cater our wedding. The food was AMAZING. Bill brought out so much delicious appetizers. My guests haven't stopped raving about the food. Dinner was amazing and our cannoli cake was delicious. What I loved most was that due to our wedding being a rainy day, We got an early morning text asking if we wanted him to make clam chowder. This was the hit of the night! We loved that he decided on what to cook based on what vegetables looked best. Bill is a true lover of food and it shows in every bite!!!

Dear Gina & Keith, thank you so much for having us cater your wedding at Pine Point. You two were FANTASTIC to work with and so flexible too. Despite the weather we made it all work and it was a fun and memorial evening for you both and you family and friends. We look forward to stay in touch. Best, Wendy & Bill
