I used CBD for my December 2023 wedding at The Library at 190 S LaSalle. The services were impeccable. I obtained proposals from several caterers from the venue's preferred caterers' list and went for tasting with two caterers. CBD's pricing is competitive compared with larger caterers, and menu options and tasting experience were better than smaller caterers. Lots of great hors d'oeuvres. Erin is very responsive, organized, and flexible. We were able to customize sides for entrees. On the wedding day, the captain (Aukse) was extremely professional, competent and attentive. We fully trust her and went with her recommendations for an on-the-spot change. The set-up was beautiful without any supervision. Flipping from ceremony layout to reception layout was done quickly. I believe they collaborated with the florist very well. They were also nice enough to box leftover cake and entrees for confirmed guests who could not show up. I would definitely recommend CBD.

We had the ceremony/reception in a indoor greenhouse with multiple rooms, and he provided insight to make certain that the serving set-up not only had an efficient flow from room to room, but also looked inviting as guests meandered down plant-lined hallways and enjoyed both appetizers and the main dish. The appetizer display was especially beautiful! The dishes had quality, variety, and the option to accommodate multiple dietary restrictions, and several guests commented that it was the best meal they had ever had at a wedding reception! We are so grateful for the kindness and service of Chef Chris, and only wish we lived closer to utilize his services for other events!

We were married 2 weeks ago and couldn't have asked for a better experience. Late to the Lake was the perfect wedding caterer for our special day! From the moment we first reached out, they were a great listener, quick to respond, attentive, caring, and friendly. Their communication style put us at ease throughout the planning process. The quality of their work was nothing short of perfection - the food they served was outstanding, memorable, and absolutely delicious!

Additionally, they paid extreme attention to detail for our guests with severe allergies, ensuring everyone was able to fully enjoy the meal. We couldn't have asked for a better catering experience and are so grateful to Late to the Lake for helping make our wedding day truly unforgettable. Would recommend to anyone!
