Sample catered weddings

We were inspired by Callahan's unique style and confidence. We knew we wanted to do something bold to match her personality, and executed a tex-mex BBQ buffet, along with a goth-inspired, black and gold grazing tables with candles and sweet & savory bites.

    Lakeland BBQ Company was a fantastic choice for our wedding catering. They were very easy to contact throughout the planning process and always responsive to our questions and requests. The quality of their work was excellent - their BBQ entrees were delicious and the unique, tasty side dishes they provided were a huge hit with our wedding guests. Lakeland BBQ was also attentive to our guests during the event, offering great service and ensuring everyone was well taken care of. I would highly recommend them to any couple looking for exceptional catering for their wedding day.
