I cannot say enough good things about Summit. The food and the service are next level, and the attentiveness the day of the wedding is unmatched. Working with the Summit team was fantastic, they really made our day so special and had it go off flawlessly. Tori and the team were so attentive and gave us everything we could’ve asked for. There was not a moment when me or my husband did not feel attended to -- when our drinks were empty, they were there; they made sure we were able to eat and actually enjoy the appetizers at cocktail hour too. The dinner was also delicious. Just really great food all around. So happy we went with Summit. From start to finish they were truly incredible and I cannot recommend them enough.

Peachtree Catering and Events was a wonderful caterer for our wedding day. Their communication throughout the planning process was clear, helpful, and attentive. The food quality and value were exceptional - all of our guests raved about how delicious everything was! I have a severe gluten allergy and Peachtree was very accommodating of my dietary needs, as well as guests with allergies. They worked to ensure a smooth event. The staff was professional, friendly, and made sure my husband and I were well-fed and happy throughout the reception. We highly recommend Peachtree Catering for any special event where you want your guests to be wowed by fantastic food and service.

Hudson Table 

5.0

Philadelphia, PA
  • Starts at $1,000

Hudson Table is a culinary studio located in the heart of Northern Liberties in Philadelphia. We offer everything from cooking classes, to live chef competitions, to bespoke private catered events. Our catering department provides each guest with an extraordinary and memorable experience with a focus on impeccable service, chef-curated seasonal menus, and full customizability to exceed your expectations.

Hudson Table and its staff are a hidden gem for your wedding or special event. We hosted our rehearsal dinner for 45 people at Hudson Table in June 2022. Anne, Chef Doug, Christine and their staff were so accommodating and helpful throughout the entire process. Chef Doug crafted an amazing menu that catered to our large group and honored several dietary restrictions including vegans and nut allergies. Hudson Table is also BYO which helps keep an event like this within budget. The price point is so reasonable: we looked into numerous options and you cannot feed a group of 45 at this price point at any other venue in the city, and few others can accommodate this large a group. We opted for the additional barending staff and definitely recommend it, they were so helpful and the price was on-budget and elevated the event. Upon arrival, I was thrilled to see the space set up with table runners, and our event manager Christine had an eye for the space and helped us arrange our candles tastefully on some beautiful plateware she had on-site and set up the tables with pops of colored poetry. Hudson Table also has some outdoor seating which is great for a large event like ours, so we had run over into the outdoor space for seating, and Christine decorated those tales with some greenery. The photos from the outdoor space are STUNNING. Christine our event manager kept us on time and checked in with me and my groom frequently to make sure we were eating and to alert us when it was time for toasts, and when we're ready to clean up. Chef Doug also made sure we were eating while entertaining, and checked in about the quality of the food. The portions are generous, and even with 45 people we had leftovers. Hudson packaged the leftovers for us and our guests to take home which was such a pleasant surprise. My groom and I received so many compliments from our guests about the food and the space and were told it was one of the most fun rehearsal dinners they've ever attended. If you are looking for a casual, friendly environment where you can mingle with guests and eat to die-for food, honestly look no further.
