Tamale Spaceship absolutely knocked it out of the park with their food, drinks, and service for our wedding. It was clear they put immense care and attention into our day. Also as someone who grew up eating Hispanic food, I can honestly say their dishes were some of the best I’ve ever had. And my mom, who has been cooking for decades and is famously critical of other people’s cooking, could not stop raving about the food. Latina mom stamp of approval. Their food was authentic and flavorful, and their service was personal and heartfelt. They even left us a handwritten card to congratulate us. So thoughtful, they went above and beyond. Gracias tanto Tamale Spaceship!!

    Paulie Gee's Chicago was a fantastic choice for our wedding catering. From the start, their communication was prompt, personable, and flexible. We felt like we were doing our own thing, but their experience helped us fit the food to our plans. Day of, delivery was there, right on time and Tiara set everything up to plan. We feel fortunate to share one of favorite restaurants with family and friends. Being surprised with a heart-shaped pizza a special touch. Of course, everyone enjoyed the food. I think Logan Squares were especially good for the event and I'm glad the seasonal specials were available. We couldn't have asked for better catering service, and highly recommend Paulie Gee's Chicago to any couple planning their big day.

    Lindsey's Ice Cream

    Chicago, IL
    • Starts at $1,100
    • Offer

    Lindsey’s Ice Cream serves up small-batch, Asian-American ice cream flavors with a nostalgic twist. From cozy backyard vows to modern downtown receptions, we’re all about adding that extra sprinkle of fun.

    I highly recommend Lindsey's Ice Cream for catering — it added the perfect, personal touch to our wedding! I ordered the platinum package, which included a custom ice cream flavor. We worked with Lindsey to create a Jasmine Rose Lychee ice cream, which is a combination of my and my partner's favorite flavors. Throughout the whole process, Lindsey was extremely professional, friendly, and easy to communicate with. She was always quick to respond to any questions I had, which was very much appreciated during all the chaos of wedding planning. The cherry on top was the cute ice cream bar setup. It fit in perfectly with our garden-themed wedding decor and made for great photos. After my wedding, multiple guests commented on how much they loved the ice cream bar, and that the option to have a custom flavor was something they had never seen at another wedding. If you're looking for a unique, memorable experience for you and your guests, please give Lindsey's Ice Cream a try!

      Big Delicious Planet

      Chicago, IL
      • Starts at $18,000

      Inquire with us about your wedding: hello(at)bigdeliciousplanet(dot)com. Big Delicious Planet, named the “Greenest Caterer in America” since 2013, is one of the most sought after Chicago wedding caterers for couples who want flavorful, vibrant food with sustainability in mind. We cater highly-styled, glamorous weddings, and romantic, vintage weddings at venues all across the city and intimate weddings, elopements, and rehearsal dinners in our own urban farm. During our growing season, we’ll use the produce we harvest for your wedding!

      We chose BDP to cater our September 2024 wedding at Firehouse Chicago and would absolutely recommend them to anyone looking for an event caterer. Jasmine was such a delight to work with from start to finish in planning our event - from the initial quote and inquiries, our tasting, planning along the way, our final walkthrough, and execution day-of. We were so lucky to have found BDP and felt supported in our wedding planning process from start to finish. But most of all, BDP served up some incredible food and beverages. Finding the right food and drinks for our wedding was important to us, so choosing the right caterer and bartending staff was crucial. BDP sources their produce and herbs from their urban farm in West town, and the everything they made for our wedding was so fresh, inventive, and unique. Their food is 1000 times better than any you will ever have at a wedding - it's more like dining at a nice Chicago restaurant than eating the standard dry chicken breast most wedding caterers produce. We loved our meal and had multiple guests come up to use during dinner to comment on how good the food was. I'm still craving another bite of their tortellini! They paid such attention to detail with everything leading up to the wedding and several of our guest's special dietary needs. Everyone had something safe and delicious to eat, and we felt so lucky to be supported by them. The speciality cocktails BDP made for our wedding were also the best drinks I've ever had at a wedding- by far! They even did some special cocktail infusions ahead of time for a favorite cocktail of ours that we never imaged could be served at a wedding. It was so delicious, so unique, and just overall amazing. If you're looking for a wedding caterer, look no further.

      Jewell Events Catering 

      5.0

      Chicago, IL

        We know you dream of an extraordinary wedding day. Let Jewell Weddings help make that dream come true. The beauty of a Jewell wedding is legendary. Whether simply stated or extravagant, every wedding we cater has the signature Jewell Weddings style, that “step beyond,” which has set us apart for decades. Our consultants are passionate about entertaining, combining creativity and expertise, so that even the smallest detail is not forgotten. With a knowledge of Chicago special events, extending beyond just weddings, we will make sure that everything, down to the last fork, fits your style.

        My (now husband) and I booked with Jewell Events Catering probably a year and a half before our wedding. During that 1.5 years, we spoke regularly with Greg Jenkins (President), Hailey, and Maria (the Jewell Catering team) and I can not verbalize enough how helpful, involved and willing to go the extra mile they all were. Greg truthfully felt like an additional day-of-coordinator the way he helped us create our table design, source beautiful chargers and draping, discuss the timeline of the day, and get into the nitty-gritty details of every.single.aspect of the day. Not to mention the food is UNBELIEVABLE. Everyone complimented are food and I'm not shocked it was perfect based on the incredibly attention to detail Greg has. Everything (and I mean to the crumb) is under a microscope with Greg team, which makes the end product better than you could imagine. There are not many vendors that you leave the wedding planning process feeling like you are REAL friends, but with Greg and the Jewell Catering team, both my husband and I are genuinely sad to no longer have regular planning meetings with them! Greg team will show up to the venue with multiple-onsite walkthroughs, coordinate with the venue to resolve issues, and will handle last minute external issues without it coming to us so we can be blissfully happy on our special day. I never really leave reviews, but I HAD to leave a review for this team as they were the shining star of our vendor list without question. It's also worth mentioning we looked at 10 caterers for our event and could not be HAPPIER with our choice to go with Jewell. A Chicago wedding is overwhelming and exhausting to plan, but Jewell made it so much easier. Do not question it and do not price shop (believe me we did and it's a waste of time as they are aligned pricing wise with other lower-service options) - BOOK JEWELL EVENTS CATERING.

The execution on the day was flawless - the food was beautifully presented and consistently delicious. I would highly recommend Worldwide to any couple looking for a reliable and talented catering team.

        5.0

        Chicago, IL

          Ted joined J&L Catering in 1995 and was hired originally as a waiter for a corporate account within the company. Quickly moving up the ranks, he settled in to full-time event planning for the company, where he has remained working with our social, corporate and private clients for over 10 years. He has designed events for clients around the country, but particularly loves working in Chicago. Ted purchased the company in 2001 with his business partner and executive chef, Kevin Kelly. Along with the responsibilities of running a successful business with over one hundred-thirty employees, Ted is very active in Chicago’s fundraising community.

          I wish I could give them more stars, more reviews, more everything because they were INCREDIBLE. We are still getting compliments on our food a month later and, of course day of, everyone was RAVING. Jim was beyond helpful. He was there for us every step of the way and so supportive. The entire staff was fast, efficient, professional, supportive and just beyond friendly. I want to do it all over again just to see them all! I absolutely recommend J&L and will happily continue to do so!

          Huegah Catering Co. 

          5.0

          Chicago, IL

            At Huegah, we believe that there is no client more important than you. When you work with us, we promise you our uncompromising attention to detail, food of the highest quality, and to be treated the way you want to be treated. We describe our cuisine as “dressed up eclectic comfort”. Our artful and delicious chef-crafted menu is guided by the season, inspired by you and your event, and begins with the freshest, hand-selected ingredients.

            We cannot recommend Huegah Catering enough! Our journey to finding the perfect caterer wasn’t easy—we initially tried another vendor and were disappointed even with just a small tasting for the two of us. But from the moment we walked into Huegah and met Angie and Paul, we knew we had found something special. From the very beginning, they made us feel welcomed, valued, and completely at ease. The entire experience was personalized beyond our expectations. Paul and Angie went above and beyond to accommodate every request—offering to drive to Wisconsin just to get Spotted Cow for our special day and even offering to follow a cherished family recipe from scratch if we wanted to include it in our meal. Their dedication, flexibility, and passion for what they do were evident in every interaction. They were the warmest and friendliest vendors we had and made our planning a joy! When it came to the food, they absolutely delivered. We chose filet and salmon, and every single plate was cooked to perfection—warm, flavorful, and beautifully presented. The quality was impeccable, and we lost count of how many guests came up to us raving about how much they loved their meal. The service was just as outstanding as the food. Paul and Angie were not only professional and attentive but also radiated joy, making the entire process smooth and stress-free. They seamlessly coordinated with all our other vendors, ensuring that every detail of our wedding night was perfect. We truly cannot thank Paul and Angie enough for everything they did to make our wedding so memorable. Without a doubt, we will be calling them again for any future family events. If you are looking for caterers who are passionate, accommodating, and will go the extra mile to make your event exceptional, look no further than Huegah Catering. Thank you, Paul and Angie, for making our wedding unforgettable!
