Even though we couldn't LEGALLY get married in PA we had a commitment ceremony anyway. We used Feastivities. OMG they were FABULOUS. I couldn't be more happy. Well both of us. I guess I need to get used to that we are now WE not I. Anyway, I loved working with Stacy & Dan. They connected with what I wanted to do. The food was OUTSTANDING, the service was so attentive is was so wonderful. We used their decor company Offshoots- we just loved it. My mother was so happy with her flowers. I can't thank them enough. So well done.

Feastivities was absolutely, possitively, fantastic. Dan was professional, prompt with his responses, and really took the time to provide a reception that fit our needs 100%. The food was outstanding, the waitstaff professional, and the service incredible. We had about 150 guests at our reception and it moved along so smooth, thanks to Feastivites.

My husband and I were THRILLED with how our wedding turned out and it was all thanks to the awesome team at Feastivities! From the moment we met Dawn at an open house we were sold. She got our modern/untradtional, yet elegant style perfectly and both she and Meredith were FANTASTIC to work with. They were flexible, professional, and offered up awesome ideas and advice for how to make things work. They REALLY know what they were talking about and how to make every little detail we wanted come to life! I would absolutely recommed Feastivites for their DELICIOUS food alone, but with their amazing staff you get so much more! Our guests were left in awe and I can't wait to have another party and hire Feastivities again!

Feastivities and Steven Starr were our venue's preferred caterers, and we are so glad we went with Feastivities, which not only had better pricing, but also seemed a lot more versatile. Feastivities has such a wide range of options in terms of dining style and menu items, which is perfect when you don't want to be restricted to a formal sit-down 3 course meal. Not only does Feastivities provide catering, but they also provided and/or helped arrange table settings, event rentals, the cake order, bartenders, and even served as the day-of coordinator. We worked with Liz, who was extremely helpful, organized, and responsive and really streamlined many aspects of the planning process. She was really easy to work with not just over email but also in person. She kept us on track in terms of timelines for making decisions and placing orders, and never pressured us to make any decisions. She helped arrange logistics for the day-of, met us at the venue for a walkthrough a week before the wedding, made sure everything was delivered to the venue on time on our wedding day, and really took a lot of the headache out of wedding planning!Not only was the service great, but the food was great too. We were allowed to bring several people with us to the tasting, during which we tried EVERYTHING we were interested in serving at the wedding. We ended up having butlered hors d'oeuvres during cocktail hour as well as a buffet-style dinner with performance stations, as well as a late night snack at the end of the night. After the tasting, they were really flexible in allowing us to make changes to our menu. Our only criticisms are very minor: One of our signature drinks was the old-fashioned, and at the end of the night, almost all our bottles of whisky and bourbon were unopened...plenty of people had been drinking old fashioneds, so we're not exactly sure what the bartender was making them with... Also, Feastivities apparently supplied some of the floral arrangements at the performance stations...which (in my opinion) were hideous, and completely different than the arrangements we had around the venue. I would have gladly supplied a few extra arrangements myself if I had been told beforehand. Again, a very minor detail which I'm sure no one else but me noticed...Overall, we had a great experience with Feastivities. The fact that they help with so much of the planning and logistics is definitely an added bonus. We got so many compliments on not only the presentation of the food, but also the quality. Their food is better than any wedding food I've had before (and not just saying it because it was my wedding!) We definitely recommend them!

In the Indian culture, food is VERY important, and having good food at a wedding is paramount. Let's just say, every person at our wedding throughly enjoyed their meals. The food was fresh, there was ample amount, and the dishes were innovative and beautifully presented. The staff at Feastivities was fantastic as well. Everyone was impressed at how meals were presented to the table in unison. Meredith & Dawn were life-savers and helped me through some challenging planning!!

Everything about Feastivities was perfect. Working with Megan and Bernice was so easy and they thought of any detial we may have missed. They were extremely responsive to all requests and listened to everything we wanted. The night of the wedding they took care of everything and catered to our needs. Of course, the food was fantastic!! So many guests commented on the food, especially the appetizers; both the taste and display. Having delicious food was important to us and we knew we would get that with Feastivities!!!

Feastivities attention to detail for my wedding was impeccable! The food was simply amazing. Our guests are still raving about their dinner and the appetizers. Dawn, our coordinator from beginning til end was more than we could have ever hoped for. She made sure that we had everything we needed throughout the entire night. Fantastic service!

OMG !!! The food from these people was just sooooo beyond delicious. We had a huge wedding and the waiters were serving the tables as whole tables ( 10-12 waiters) not just one or two people at a time, so each person got their food at the same time and nobody had to wait for the others to get theirs. They were so professional and the food from start to finish was scrumptious. The support for choosing the food was wonderful and the tasting dinner, with my husband and our daughter, was just a blast and added to our beautiful year leading up to this most special day, in all our lives. YUM YUM YUM is all we need to say. Thank You for making our daughters day exactly what she had always dreamed it would be. :)

Feastivities did a wonderful job catering our wedding. They worked with me to plan the perfect meal and it was DELICIOUS!! I loved the way the staff served everyone at a table at the same time, and the guests loved it also. They worked along side of all the other vendors and organized everything so it went off without a hitch!

We worked with Feastivities Catering for our April wedding. They came highly recommended from friends, so we in turn are highly recommending them! They were able to work within any budget (ours was not that big) and when the big day came, I wasn't nervous at all! I had no problems trusting that it would all turn out exactly as we wanted. And it did. The food was phenomenal, and choosing the food was a fun excercise for my husband I. (We got to bring our "best couple" to the tasting!) The tables and chairs and linens looked great, the staff on site was sooo awesome and accomodating, even our guests commented on what great bartenders and servers they were. Friendly and fun, yet always professional, they fit right in with our crowd. The best part about our experience with Feastivites has to be the way everything was set up and flowed throughout the night. We chose to have stations buffets and no assigned seating, which worried our older family, but worked out perfectly thanks to the experience of the caterer. We got compliments on the feel and flow from cocktail hour (where our burrito station was a huge hit!) through to the end of the night. Whatever type of party you are throwing, I am confident Feastivities can give you exactly what you want for exactly what you want to spend. And you will enjoy the planning process! Bonus!

We recently got married in late February. The wedding ceremony and reception was at Cairnwood Mansion, a unique venue with many obstacles, in Bryn Athyn, PA. We met Feastivities at one of the venue's open house nights and were interested to learn more. We appreciated the professionalism and attention to detail that Feastivities showed us from this point forward. We worked closely with Dan at Feastivities and he truly helped make our day special.Soon after, we went to a tasting to evaluate Feastivities against 2 other possibilities. The tasting was a wonderful experience at the home office and it could not have gone any better. After working closer and really evaluating what Feastivities was offering we felt more than comfortable going with them. All that was left was the planning and execution.Dan helped us prepare, organize, and even soothe some of our concerns we had along the way. As with any wedding there is tremendous planning along the way and this team was always ready to help and solution-based. Once our day approached we were not worried at all. Not a care in the world on our day because of their help. Practice truly makes perfect with Feastivities and Dan was stellar. Even some of our guests took time to remark on what an excellent job this team did in a challenging venue. We would recommend Feastivities to anyone for any event. Special shout-out to Andrew for doing such a wonderful job serving the bride and groom. However, I also would like to emphasize that the whole team was wonderful.Thanks again - We are so appreciative - Matt and Elizabeth

I have to say that I had really high expectations when I first booked with Feastivities--all the reviews, highly regarded quality of care--and overall yes, it was an amazing event and we received tons of compliments on the food, service, and quality of work. But behind the scenes the little things went wrong. With that being said, this review is based on quality of service, food expectations, and professionalism. I had a unique situation in where my Event Planner quit mid-wedding planning, so it was not my new event planner's fault that she had to learn everything that was planned 6 months into the wedding. She and I had a great relationship although she was poor with responding to emails (and I live across the country so that was crucial for our relationship). The staff at Feastivities is so sweet and happy and cheerful, so they get 5 stars in my book for that. But I think the small disappointments were just that, especially for the high price tag. I think we expected to be blown away and while we were extrememly happy, there were aspects that I would not expect for such a high price tag.

The food was excellent but the wait staff was too small for my event. Dinner service took forever and there was no one to check on guests already served. No one was served wine, water etc. throughout the meal. The h'ordeuvres were served on very small plates and they were not plentiful. Most guests did not have more than one or two. The dessert buffet was served without plates and not all of our choices were available. If I had the option I would have gladly paid additional for more h'ordeuvres and a larger wait staff.

Great food. Was able to sample some of the food items. Could schedule appointments after business hours to accommodate our schedules.
