it is my pleasure to write a review for Laselle events, I'm completely satisfied with the presentation of the meal. The meals were prepared with precision and displayed vibrant colors as well as delectable protein. I've experienced the Laselle events product on several occasions and I'm happy to say that the offerings are consistently excellent. The meals provided a party for my mouth :-). I'm certain that the meals were prepared and delivered fresh, and I could taste the difference in the quality of the dish and just when I thought they were done they delivered an elegant glutton free option for dessert to complete the evening. Hiring Laselle Events was the best thing I could have done, and my wife appreciated the meals as well. My friends are still talking about the meals. Well done Laselle Events!

Awarded Best of Zola
The Dinner Party Project is great. I started out just going to a dinner of theirs. Then when my actual wedding venue shut down in 2020 I was at a loss with what to do. I still wanted to get married but was willing to have a more intimate event while I waited for our venue to reopen. I has tried to reach out to some different chefs in Orlando and was trying to plan it all myself, but I wasn't really hearing back from anyone and then I thought about Dana from TDPP. I reached out to her about my ideas and my dates and if it was even possible and she made it ALL happen. She worked with me to get the chef I wanted and a menu that everyone could eat. The night was so fun. Her hand-crafted cocktails are amazing too. The food was so good and each course was seamless. I didn't realize someone from the night was allergic to shrimp and the chef worked it out! I would recommend her for dinner parties as well as the new, and very popular, micro-weddings happening all over. She gave a very intimate touch to our very intimate and special evening. Give her a call.

My husband and I chose the plated dinner and Let me tell you, that exceeded our expectations! Our guests kept calling after the wedding to compliment me as they were impressed with the food and services from the servers. One of the main highlights is how they made sure that my bridal party ate during the cocktails hour after the ceremony while taking our pictures.

Our wedding was planned in approximately 10 months and from the moment I sat down with Melissa at Dade City BBQ I knew it was the perfect choice for us. First, she was kind, always answered any and all questions we had, no matter how small they were. We met for a tasting (delish!) and fell in love with her even more. In addition, we tasted all the meats and sides for a BBQ buffet. We chose pulled pork, chicken quarters and added brisket. Our 3 sides were mac & cheese, collard greens and potato salad w/ cornbread. They were ALL delicious. Our guests raved about everything and especially the greens! We also opted for a grazing table for our guests. It was beautifully presented and absolutely beautiful and delicious. Our guests were in awe! She even made us our own plate because she knew we were busy talking with our guests. I would highly recommend this caterer! VERY FAIR prices, large portions and happy guests. I am 100% pleased. Thank you Melissa and your amazing staff!!

Chef David Taylor LLC

  • Starts at $510

Private chef and culinary consultant for local restaurants. I've been providing on-site gourmet experiences and catering for many occasion in central Florida. ​ I hold a Serv-Safe Certification, Florida DBPR contracted food safety provider and -COI- certificate of insurance for third parties general liability.

We are so blessed to have found Chef David Taylor to create a wonderful menu for our daughter’s wedding. We had had a couple of tastings with event caterers and were so extremely disappointed with the lack of creativity and quality that it made us anxious. Luckily, we found Chef David who advertised being a private Chef vs. a caterer. He taught us the difference and boy was he right! He helped us put together a great menu and during the tasting, we experienced an incredible meal from appetizers to a three course high end meal. We opted for a surf and turf main dish and let me tell you…the steak was most tender and flavorful and scallops tasted out of this world! Not only were the dishes he made extremely delicious, but the presentation quite impressive. Chef David provides his experience, talent, responsiveness, and recommendations to make the vision we have for this special day a reality. We know our guests are going to be impressed by the presentation, quality of the meal, and enjoy the interactions with Chef and his staff. We are so excited about this upcoming wedding! I will update this review after the wedding event early next month!
