Gina and her team did an absolutely fantastic job of catering our daughter’s wedding reception. Their food was just to die for and everyone was raving over the appetizers. They took care of everything so that all we had to do was let them know we were ready to be served and then we could sit down and enjoy the meal. Even better still by the time everyone had left they already had half the mess cleaned up and within an hour you couldn’t even tell we had been there. Everything was spotless! I would recommend Santa Maria Catering in a heartbeat, and in fact we have booked them to cater our silver wedding anniversary party at the end of August.

I was a little hesitant to ask Santa Maria Catering to put together a picnic for my fiancé and I because I know that they are used to catering large events, but when I asked them they were so nice! I thought I would feel silly asking but they were friendly and helpful and told me they would be happy to do it. They even offered to deliver the food to the picnic spot! I couldn’t believe it. I cannot cook to save myself but I wanted to do something special for my honey and they put together a feast! We couldn’t eat it all that day so had leftovers to enjoy for the next day, which was fantastic because the food was so yummy. I told my parents I want them to cater my wedding!
