Rosemary & Rye made our wedding day extra special. From beginning to end, the team made the planning process so easy and they were very accommodating with all our requests. We have heard so many compliments from our guests about the food! Our guests were raving about their meals (even months later!). They especially loved the hors d'oeuvres, dinner entrees and signature cocktails. We're so happy with how everything turned out. The team went above & beyond and it really showed! We highly recommend working with Rosemary & Rye for your wedding or any special event. We will certainly be reaching back out for any future events we host in the future!
Rosemary & Rye Catering truly went above and beyond to make our wedding unforgettable! From the very beginning, their team was incredibly communicative, guiding us through every step of the planning process and paying close attention to even the smallest details, such as accommodating food sensitivities and allergies. We wanted the food at our wedding to make a statement, and they delivered beyond our expectations. Every dish was beautifully presented and absolutely delicious, creating a memorable culinary experience that left our guests raving. The cocktails were equally impressive—crafted to perfection and a huge hit among our guests! We received endless compliments on the food and drinks, and it brought so much joy to see everyone enjoying themselves. Rosemary & Rye's dedication, professionalism, and passion for their craft made all the difference. We couldn’t recommend them more highly to anyone looking for exceptional catering that elevates any special occasion!
In one word: INCREDIBLE. Rosemary & Rye Catering went above and beyond in every aspect. Food is undoubtedly a memorable topic among guests following a wedding, and from hors d'oeuvres to the main course, guests couldn't stop raving about the delicious flavors, with several claiming it was the best wedding food they've ever had. Not to mention, the presentation was flawless, adding to the overall culinary experience.
As Charleston locals and self-proclaimed foodies, our expectations for food are sky-high, and R&R surpassed them all. The tasting experience left us very impressed, but we were thrilled to find that the food at our wedding, on a larger scale, exceeded even those lofty expectations. The chicken & waffles, a delightful "local treat," were a highlight that many guests had never experienced before. The mini tomato pies and pulled pork wontons were also crowd favorites, with guests eagerly going back for seconds. The flavor combination of the R&R salad with strawberries, goat cheese, and candied pecans was simply delicious. The short rib was cooked to perfection, bursting with flavor, while the gruyere prosciutto stuffed chicken was equally delightful. Each side dish was thoughtfully paired to complement its respective entrée (risotto with short rib and fingerling potatoes with chicken). Even the wild mushroom ravioli (vegetarian main course) was a hit, impressing even those who chose other dishes but sampled their plus one’s selection.
Throughout the planning process, Jessica and Caroline were responsive, professional, and a joy to work with. Instead of becoming frustrated with our ever-changing menus, they remained patient and accommodated us with ease as we navigated through selections to fit our budget. They provided valuable feedback to help curate a diverse menu that catered to everyone's dietary needs flawlessly. On the big day, the R&R team arrived promptly, were very organized, and the service was impeccable, with gracious and professional wait staff. They even took it upon themselves to set aside a few appetizers for us to enjoy later in the evening, allowing us to spend cocktail hour taking pictures and visiting with family. It was really a kind gesture and did not go unnoticed.
Choosing Rosemary & Rye was undoubtedly a great decision. Their attention to detail, outstanding service, and exceptional food made our special day truly unforgettable. We’ll definitely be turning to them for any future events.
From beginning to the end, Rosemary & Rye Catering were beyond professional and so accommodating for our wedding last Saturday! The sales manager Jessica is just phenomenal and the staff/chef/bartender were absolutely amazing and beautiful people inside and out. This group of team is who you want to hire for ANY events to have catered plus the food is just beyond delectable! Thank you again, we appreciated all of you!
We hired a private chef and a server from Rosemary & Rye Catering for our rehearsal dinner, and I cannot recommend them enough!! We rented a beach house in Isle of Palms to stay for our wedding weekend, and had 20 guests in attendance for our rehearsal dinner at the house. The chef arrived 2 hours early and cooked dinner in the kitchen for us, and the server passed out hors d'oeuvres and served the food family style to the 3 tables we had in the dining/living room. The food was absolutely INCREDIBLE - even better than the food at our wedding!! We had lamb, scallops and risotto, sea bass, filet minion, lobster ravioli, and more! Both the chef and the server were wonderful, and Ainsley at R&R made setting up the entire event incredibly easy. I had reached out to at least 10 other private chefs during the research process, and R&R was by far the best value and most responsive option of them all. They can customize just about any menu you wish, and they even ordered fancy disposable dinnerware for our event. They made our rehearsal dinner an unforgettable evening - it was actually one of my favorite parts of our entire wedding weekend! I 100% recommend using them for any catering events you may need!
I cannot recommend R&R enough!! Over a month later our guests are still raving about how great the food was at our reception. From the moment I inquired with them to the day of the event, every member of R&R was helpful, professional, and patient as we navigated the wedding planning process. We held our reception in my parent's backyard and their team was able to accommodate our location and the food service was seamless. I truly cannot say enough great things about their service, staff, and food. Our wedding day would not have been the same without them! You will NOT be disappointed if you choose to work with R&R for your big day and you are guaranteed to have excellent food!!
Rosemary & Rye Catering did an amazing job with the food for our wedding! So many guests raved about the selection and quality available. The chicken and waffle skewers, she crab soup shooters, and strawberry brie crostini appetizers were amazing. We had pulled brisket and chicken sliders with root vegetables and southern mac for the dinner and everything was hot and fresh! The strawberry shortcake cups for dessert were the perfect ending to the sweltering southern day. They even provided my husband and I with a to-go bag with food from our wedding they set aside which was so sweet! Dalia Ayoub was amazing to work with and extremely responsive whenever I had questions or wanted to make changes. Dalia was also new to taking over the position (there was a change in catering sales managers) but this transition felt very smooth to me, Dalia you were amazing. Thank you so so much to the whole Rosemary & Rye staff for making our wedding amazing. I also loved getting to read the very sweet notes many of them left in our guest book!
With my husband being a professional chef and myself being an event planner, food was THE most important thing to us at our wedding day, and hiring Rosemary & Rye was the best decision we could have made. From the booking/tasting process, to the execution of the event by Jordan, the entire experience was seamless, fun and most importantly- DELICIOUS. We had insane weather on our wedding day and the R&R Team rose to the occasion to help out and make it absolutely perfect. They even took our crazy vision of having a live cacio e Pepe station at our wedding and made it a beautiful, delicious reality. Together with their sister bar company, Squeeze, Rosemary & Rye’s hospitality and incredible service is something our guests will be talking about forever. Hire them right now and I promise you’re in for the best experience ever!!!
We had a perfect night with Rosemary and Rye Catering. The food was delicious and the service was impeccable. The wait staff and bartenders were gracious and professional. They were attentive to whatever needs I had, and I had very few because they were so thorough right from the very beginning. If you want a worry free, delicious wedding they are your perfect caterer!!
Unfortunately, I can not recommend Rosemary and Rye as your event caterer. What started out as a very positive relationship deteriorated consistently straight through to our wedding day itself. When we first met with them, we were thrilled with the food choices provided at the tasting. The sales manager answered our questions and we left with a contract and food list in place. We had no contact with them from then on, unless I initiated the contact. First, there was a $500+ error for the liquor bill on Rosemary and Rye's end, to which they admitted but they would not own the error, instead blaming it on an employee who is no longer with the company. This resulted in me having to find another bar company at the last minute, 3 weeks before my wedding day! Second, there was also what seems to be a computing error on the original contract, resulting in $450 additional charges for taxes and service fees. These fees almost doubled on the final bill, even though our actual charges overall had gone down considerably, having removed the bar service and another service from the original contract. Third, my mother and I all called at various times trying to get explanations for these additional charges, and to discuss final details. We either received no callbacks or delayed callbacks. After asking twice to come in in person and being told both times Dahlia didn’t have time, she finally made time when I got angry. By way of explanation we were told the sales tax in SC increased. Our sales tax almost doubled from the original bill, when we had a lower overall bill due to having the original bar and event rentals removed. They didn’t offer to absorb any of the mistakes made on their end. I was also told regularly that they were so very tired, working 7 days a week, and they couldn't keep up. I am in the wedding business here in Charleston. I know how vendors work and I know what is professional and expected. I work full time in an office, and do wedding hair every weekend, as well as weeknights. At no time have I ever given excuses or had to apologize for my work ethic or work area. The day of the wedding itself was the worst disappointment of all. Trying to make the payment was incredibly difficult. When we tried to make the payment over the phone we were told the person would be away from her desk for awhile and we could call back later, while at the same time being told the catering trucks wouldn't leave there until full payment was made, although we had been told we could pay the day of, at the wedding. The worst part of all of this was we did not get the food we had contracted for, as prepared at the tasting back in January. The garlic and herb mashed potatoes ended up being scoops of bland potatoes with no flavoring, they tasted like instant potatoes. They were not remotely similar to what we had, or expected. The beef was so rare many people didn't eat it. The chicken was dry and the green beans were mediocre. To my knowledge, and at most weddings I have attended, the catering company boxes up the food and sends it home with the family, since the family paid for the food. There was at least more than half a tray of chicken left, as well as other food. We were given two pieces of chicken and some beans and two appetizers. I am not one to post bad reviews; however, my experience with R&R was underwhelming to say the least, and if I were looking for a caterer again, I would want to know these things, especially when planning a wedding.
When it comes to food, the food was incredible. We had amazing hors d'oeurvres and 3 main stations. I mean seriously, the food and the waitstaff was out of this world. We had a shrimp and grits, chicken and mac & cheese, and flank steak for our 3 stations and it was perfect. All of our guests were raving about the food. We also hired the bartending staff through them and there wasn't a bad drink in the house.
The only reason we are giving 4 stars is because about a month and half before our wedding, the changed their sales manager and the communication fell flat. Because of this, getting the final payment was an issue because we had to go through venmo and other online payment apps in order to avoid a convenience fee by using a card. It was a bit frustrating, again right before the wedding.
All in all, I'm glad we went with them. Food and service at the wedding was top notch. Communication near the end was the only issue.
In a word: perfection. Rosemary & Rye exceeded every expectation. The food was outstanding and the guests raved about it. The presentation was beautiful; the staff was professional; and the compliments were rampant. Amazing desserts as well! Thank you for helping to make our wedding reception fabulous!
If you’re getting married in the area, Rosemary & Rye is a must! They were so lovely, thoughtful and accommodating from our very first correspondence, and were happy to work around all of our cuisine/dietary and budget needs. On top of that, the food was all incredible. Our guests are still raving about it, over a week later. Everything was perfectly cooked and so flavorful, plus the cocktails/wine and beer selections were fabulous too. Every staff member who worked the wedding was so friendly as well, and we couldn’t have been happier with our experience. We absolutely loved them all around!
Sabrina and the team at Rosemary & Rye did a stellar job at our wedding! I seriously can’t sing their praises enough! We initially had a tasting years ago (thanks COVID)! My husband wanted to try things he didn’t actually expect us to have on our wedding menu which led to me making adjustments approximately 20 times over the course of the last 2 years. They were accommodating and helpful each and every time! We ended up with some items we had never tried. I can’t emphasize enough how delicious the food was and how impressed our guests were! Now, even a month later, people are still raving about the beef short ribs! If you’re on the fence, just do it! In addition, we had the pecan encrusted chicken breast with macaroni and cheese and the shrimp and grits! My husband and I actually sat down to eat and each had a plate from all 3 of our stations! The dinner and their service was flawless! I felt “catered to”! My special request was a late night snack! We went with the cheeseburger sliders and chicken and waffle bites- I highly recommend after an evening of drinking! Rosemary and Rye were one of the few vendors that I trusted to execute my vision! I wasn’t aware when they arrived or when they left- it was seamless! There isn’t any hesitation to say they knocked it out of the park! I highly recommend them to cater your next function/wedding too!
When we went in for our tasting with Rosemary and Rye we were blown away. I could barely get other caterers in Charleston to call me back-- let alone customize a menu for us. Everything we tasted was delicious and Sabrina basically planned my wedding for me. At the wedding we expected a small drop in quality of the food, but surprisingly it was even better than the tasting! The steaks were better than most restaurants-- medium rare and so tender. I wanted to lick my plate. The bartenders they provided were so much fun and memorized our guests go-to drinks before the cake was cut. Everyone is still calling us to compliment all the food and drinks! Do yourself a favor and schedule your tasting with them today.
Sabrina and the team at Rosemary & Rye made all of our wedding food dreams come true! My husband and I are huge foodies so this was one area of our wedding we really wanted to make sure was executed flawlessly. R&R exceeded our expectations and our guests are raving about the food weeks later. They took our vision of blending the West Coast, East Coast and South into an incredible pairing. We had these amazing mini fish tacos with a margarita shooter, New England clam cakes and chicken and waffle bites for the apps. The quality of the food was top notch and they are extremely responsive and so easy to work with! The waitstaff also made sure we always had enough food which is hard for the bride and groom! If you are getting married anywhere near CHS I cannot recommend them enough.
We loved our experience with Rosemary & Rye!
We planned a destination wedding in Charleston, but we are from NY. We were able to fly in for a tasting and we loved the "mom and pop" feel of the food and service. Everything felt "homey" even being so far from home. The shrimp and grits were by far the best we had tried. Sabrina was very flexible and accomodating with our multiple menu changes (indecisive!) And she was very helpful with last minute add ons. We ended up with a larger cocktail hour, buffet style dinner, and a farewell favor treat for the road! We couldn't have been happier with all 3. Multiple wedding guests raved about the chicken tapas dish, saying the sauce was the best they've ever had! They also helped us book our Bar service with Squeeze and worked with us to ensure we had a custom Bar package that fit our needs. Would recommend to any couple looking for a personzlied and tasty catering experience :)
Rosemary and Rye were the absolute highlight of my wedding. Everyone is still raving about how good the food was and how friendly waiters were. Their team has been extremely helpful and a pleasure to work with. My mom is such a tough critic and even she was throughly impressed with everything. With the transition from B.Gourmet to Rosemary and Rye I was a little skeptical, but the food and service surpassed all of my dreams. My personal favorite were the fried pimento mac and cheese bites during cocktail hour. My husband absolutely loved the braised short rib for dinner. Truly everything was delicious, you will not be disappointed!
I cannot say enough good things about Rosemary & Rye. I was obsessed with the sweet potato gnocchi from the moment we did our taste testing. They’re super accommodating with any style of food and all food allergies/preferences. I highly recommend the she-crab soup and the gnocchi, but honestly you can’t go wrong no matter what you choose!
Our daughter's engagement spanned 2 years so we took the time to make decisions on the important priorities---- food for the cocktail hour and dinner being at the top of the list. Guests raved about the cocktail hour appetizers-- mini crab cakes with lemon aioli , fried green tomatoes with pimento cheese& candied bacon, tomato, strawberry & basil bruschetta and a sweet and savory southern biscuit bar ! Dinner stations included a Strawberry, Goat cheese field greens, salad, a fried chicken and waffle station, southern mac and cheese bar and Braised Short Ribs Tapas with roasted spring vegetable medley---all were to die for. The food served at the wedding was as fresh and delicious as it was when we initially sampled everything 18 months earlier. The guests described the food , the southern hospitality in service as outstanding and we are grateful to the pros at Rosemary & Rye for giving us theirs very best.
Rosemary & Rye was amazing from start to finish. From the beginning of the process, Sabrina was so kind, helpful and flexible. We originally started with just the wedding night catering, but eventually added on a welcome night and farewell brunch. After giving a bit of direction and our likings, Sabrina and team came up a perfect combination and blend of items. Fast forward to wedding weekend and Sabrina made sure everything went off smoothly. The food was delicious, the serving staff was great and the team helped to make sure it was a great evening for all. We did not do a tasting due to COVID-19, so it was risky planning the full weekend with one vendor - but we couldn't be happier with Rosemary & Rye and the work they did.
Rosemary & Rye were INCREDIBLE! Sabrina and Jordan helped us plan the BEST brunch wedding menu (complete with a bacon bar) and they were so great to work with us on what our budget expectations were. The food was amazing and is still being talked about, even after the wedding! I highly recommend them.
The food was amazing!! Everyone loved the shrimp and grits! Best they ever had! I definitely recommend them for wedding!!
Rosemary and Rye Catering by far exceeded our expectations. Sabrina was extremely helpful with any questions we had and always responded promptly. I feel like this team truly bent over backwards to ensure our day was nothing leas than perfect. ALSO: The food was amazing!!!
Throughout the whole planning process, Brooke + her team provided tons of helpful advice to myself and my couple getting married. This was my first time working at the venue the wedding was held at, and Brooke's team was extremely well versed in the flow and logistics of the multiple different areas of the venue. This helped create the smoothest flow possible for my couple + their guests. Jessica was the day of contact, and she was fabulous! Her, all of the servers, chefs, and bartenders were incredible helping during the huge flip - which we knocked out in half the time that I had planned for - and kept guests happy + full all night. The food was delicious as well! I would highly recommend them!!
I couldn't even begin to say enough about how much we would recommend the B Gourmet team to anyone planning a wedding in or near Charleston. From the very first time I emailed with Brooke it was clear that their customer service was top-notch of all the caters we reached out to - and that only continue through our tasting and wedding day. Brandy was our day of event manager and she went ABOVE AND BEYOND to make sure we were taken care of. The food was incredible, we have gotten so many compliments on how it was the best wedding food. And the pricing was the most competitive of anyone we talked to in Charleston. They worked with us to craft the perfect menu that fit in our very different food preferences and everything exceeded our expectations. If you are looking for a caterer in Charleston there is no doubt B. Gourmet is the best. Thank you Brandy, Brooke, and your whole team for being such an important part of our day - we are thrilled we chose B Gourmet as our catering vendor
Where do I start! Brooke and the B Gourmet team were amazing to work with. Brooke not only helped us create a delicious menu for our guests, but helped us with decorations and small details that my husband and I would have never thought of. Her staff were also friendly and professional with all of our guests. If you want someone who does a great job and loves what they do, please consider Brooke and B Gourmet. You will not regret it!
We are!

We decided to meet the team at B Gourmet Catering when planning our daughters wedding as wererecommended by several of the venues we viewed. I had never heard of them and was a bit nervous to use them for that reason. It was the best decision we could have made. The food was outstanding to say the least. Their staff was perfectly trained to be professional, courteous and to blend in quietly while they did their job passing cocktails and hors d oeuvres. Progressing to the food stations for dinner was seamless for them. The food was even better than at our tastings (which were delicious!). They helped us stay within our budget with fabulous menu choices. The unbelievably tender short ribs with delicious creamy mashed potatoes were clearly the crowd favorite. The crab cakes served on grits and the mac and cheese station was really great too! Everything served was nice and hot ( a must for good food). The bride and groom were beyond thrilled making this Mom a happy camper! I would use them again and again! I highly recommend giving them a try!
From the moment we walked through the door at our tasting I was confident that Brooke and Greg were going to exceed our expecatations. They were incredibly thoughtful and always thinking one step ahead. I wanted to have "the blue champagne" at my wedding as my "something blue" and when we sat down for our tasting (12 months in advance and in the midst of the insane SC snow storm) they surprised us with a bottle of the Blanc de Bleu on ice. Knowing how crazy busy they are, for them to take the time to plan such a small detail for me was only the beginning of how much work and dedication I saw them put into their events. Being a bride from Colorado I was nervous about how the planning would go from a distance, but they were amazing about sending over menus for me to double-check and were in constant contact with me. The food was absolutely amazing! When our friends and family bring up the wedding the first thing they mention, even months later, is "the amazing food". We had stations set up and everyone had a chance to try everything on the menu, there was no shortage of food. Their staff was attentive, but not overly, just enough to be there when you needed them but were not intrusive and didn't take away from the atmosphere of the evening. We had guests coming up to us the next day making sure we knew that everyone they came in contact with was amazing. I do have to say, we had the red velvet chicken and waffle bites, and if we had just ordered that for all of our passed hors d'oeuvres, there would have been no complaints. I am also a Puerto Rican Bride, and they were so great about incorporating some cultural food as well...their idea, and it was so great! My dad was amazed at how well it turned out. At the end of the day, as a Bride you have a million and one things to worry about when planning for your special day, the food is always on the top of that list. I would choose to work with B. Gourmet again in a heartbeat. Their love and dedication for what they do shows through their presentation and how they treat their couples. I can't thank them enough for being such a huge part of our day, and I would recommend them to any bride looking for food that your guests will still be in awe over... even a year after the wedding. Thank you!!!
As a Groom, all you can hope for is that your Bride's dreams will come true on her wedding day. In reality, all of my hope fell on the vendors we chose to carry out these dreams. As we are approaching the 1-year anniversary of our wedding, our guests still comment on how B. Gourmet exceeded all expectations and have truly set the bar for what a wedding dining experience should be! Brooke's suggestions, expertise, professionalism, timeliness, and honesty showed through on every detail. She truly knew more about our venue and our needs than anyone else we worked with. Then, I felt like every member of their staff was on point and engaged in every step along the way without Brooke and Greg needing to be onsite and micromanage them. Furthermore, there were no surprises. I felt like our tasting was identical to our wedding dinner. In short, we traveled thousands of miles and trusted B. Gourmet to execute on one of the most important parts of our wedding and I wanted to write this review to let future customers know that I would do it again without question. This team is exceptional! -Dr. Aaron Wallace, MS, MBA, DVM
We can not say enough good things about Brooke, Brandy, Scott, and the rest of the team at B. Gourmet. My husband and I had an idea to incorporate venison (that we supplied, my husband being the outdoorsman that he is) into our wedding menu, and Brooke was totally up for the challenge. They were more than happy to work with us and even excited about creating a custom plate for us! Our tasting was so cute and so much fun!
Everyone at the wedding raved about the food, and it seems they'll keep doing so for quite a while!
Our menu (which wa shard to decide on b/c everything sounded so good): Chicken and waffle bites (one of my favorites! got rave reviews from everyone), Bacon wrapped BBQ quail (another winner!), fried green tomatoes topped with pimento cheese, and prosciutto topped seared scallops, shrimp and grits, bourbon peach bbq pork tenderloin with green beans and mac and cheese (mac and cheese was on point!), and finally venison burger sliders and venison jalapeno poppers (we requested the poppers b/c they're a gameday trademark at our house). We also opted for the Charleston Treats option to offer our guests something sweet other than wedding cake to munch on and they did not disappoint. There was not one thing that could have been better.
First off let me just say how wonderful this place is, from their food to the people, I could not imagine anyone else catering our wedding. My guest are still raving about the food, and their staff was so amazing and attentive. I wish we lived closer so we could have them cater all our events! If you are planning an event in Charleston or near please use them, you will not regret it!
Brooke and her team are FANTASTIC. Everyone raved about the food at our wedding - the quality of the food, the presentation, and how smoothly everything ran. We decided to do stations of food, so people could just walk by and grab a plate and never had to wait in a line, even though our wedding was 170 people. The salads in a cup were so cute and a huge hit. In the planning, Brooke was very willing to work with our budget and accommodated my husband's narrow view of what mac and cheese should consist of. B Gourmet also made sure that we got to have all of the passed apps and they set us up with ALL of the food in the bridal suite of the venue so that we could eat in peace and have a moment to ourselves. They also packed a bunch of it up and gave it to us to take home, which we enjoyed very much the next day. Brooke also arranged for our bar service and rentals, which was a huge help. We could not recommend B Gourmet enough!!! Thank you!
B. Gourmet was great! The food was incredible and they delivered on everything we asked for. Guests were still talking about the stations. Best Shrimp & Grits ever!! Made the entire process smooth and the day we showed up everything was done!
B.Gourmet was great! The food was DELICIOUS, and they have all kinds of really clever ideas that everyone loved. I’m so glad my coordinator recommended them. Brandy and Brooke were amazing. I really only have the best things to say about B.Gourmet! I wish I could get married again just so I could use them again!
Brooke and her team were amazing! I must say we are a little biased being Penn State Alumni but they really made the day something special. Our guests were raving about the food, especially the shrimp and grits! There is no better value and experience in the Charleston area than B. Gourmet. They were the first caterer recommended to us and we are so happy we didn't look elsewhere. Book B. Gourmet, stop looking elsewhere!
Brooke and her team are the best!!
From the first phone call, to the tastings, to the plated dinner execution at our wedding, everything was absolutely flawless. Brooke creates gourmet food with a low-country flair and it is evident that she puts her heart and soul into her work. The sweetest thing was that Brooke made sure that my husband and I had some apps waiting for us immediately after the ceremony - as most couples don’t have much time to eat at their own weddings! Everything tasted amazing and our guests raved about the food and exquisite service - as well as bar service. Brooke made our plated meal service for 120 guests so errorless with her team of professionals and we could not have pulled off this day without her. Thank you Brooke!
We had an unbelievable amount of compliments about how amazing our wedding food was!
First, it was so special that Brooke and Greg were able to recreate my mom's meatballs and gravy! Our family was impressed with how close they both tasted to the recipes. We had multiple people say they went up for multiple meatballs. :) This personally was my favorite food part of the night!
Second, my northern family and friends never had she crab soup before. They even went out multiple times after the wedding to find she crab soup, and ALL said that no one had as good of that soup as you did. The second favorite was the pork wontons! I can attest to this! :)
Lastly... EVERYTHING WAS DELICIOUS! Every Italian at the wedding said that everything was spot on, and the meats and cheeses were delicious!
We also had a lot of compliments how there were no lines at any of the stations. Everyone worked extremely efficiently to turn out plates. I am so, so glad we decided to do stations. Our guests had a little bit of everything and agreed that was better than what they are used to by picking one plate! We heard compliments about how every steak was perfect.. and how they expected the pork to be good, but not THAT good! :)
We are so grateful to have picked B. Gourmet for our wedding. We highly recommend them to everyone!
The entire B Gourmet team did a fantastic job! Typically, food at weddings can be underwhelming to say the least. Since my husband and I are big foodies, finding a company that would "wow" us was a tall order. B Gourmet absolutely NAILED it! From the perfect southern hors d'oeuvres to the classic fall themed entree, we (and our guests) loved every single bite! Additionally, we could not have asked for better service in terms of communication and all the "little extras" that this team executed with perfection. Of all of our vendors, our wedding planner was most impressed with the prompt communication we received with B Gourmet. My personal favorite was the "goodie basket" we got to take back to the hotel at the end of the night! We were lucky to get the chance to munch on all of our favorites from the evening a second time as our own personal late night bites. :)
I hired B. Gourmet Catering to provide the food & staff for my baby shower, and they blew my guests away with their delicious food & fantastic service! Brooke created a custom menu for us, since I wanted to do something unique and adventurous with the food, and everything was amazing! The staff was so polite. We had planned on having small portions of hors d'oeuvres displayed at a time, so that guests could grab things as they pleased. Everyone got so wrapped up chatting with each other that people weren't eating much, so the server took it upon himself to start tray-passing the food, so that people didn't miss out. I was seriously so impressed! The entire event went so smoothly, and I would 100% hire them again for any party, large or small!
As written by everyone else there is not need to look anywhere else in Charleston for the most flavorful food. But Chef Brooke took customer service to the next level. "I had not cried at all Saturday until I saw everyone bringing the white chairs to the porch because of the rain. This was so kind of you to let them step into the chaos and it just overwhelmed me…I made contact with you at that table at just the right time and you felt like MY planner. I just can’t begin to express how grateful we are for your kindness and vision. " Caroline, efficient, patient and again such kind gestures making sure the brides had hot food and I had the opportunity to taste the appetizers. Friends from Washington State, Texas, Florida, Washington D.C, Indiana, Kentucky, Ohio and South Carolina were very impressed with HOT food, attentiveness of servers and overall flow you created. Communication was tops with emails promptly responded to and easy to create phone time for an out of town family. Thank you for helping create a fabulous evening and create special memories for our family!

By far the best caterer! The food was absolutely amazing. When we first tried the food at the tasting, we were so impressed and couldn’t wait for the wedding just to get to eat the food again! My husband is from the south so good shrimp and grits is very important to him. We both agree, B. Gourmet’s shrimp and grits is by far the best and we now compare all we try to theirs.
Brooke and Lauren were so great to work with and made the whole process very easy. Thank you so much for helping to make our wedding so memorable!
B. Gourmet is hands down the BEST option for your Charleston wedding. As a destination bride, I spent weeks scouring through every caterer in town. From my first email with B. Gourmet I was impressed - they were quick in their responses, friendly, and the planning process was seamless and easy. Their expertise helped us create the perfect Southern-inspired menu for our out-of-town guests, and it came out perfect. We had SO many guests rave about the food afterwards, and that includes multiple professional chefs. I literally cannot think of one thing I wish went better, it was truly that good. From start to finish B. Gourmet went above and beyond in every aspect. I recommend securing them as far in advance as you can, because they book up very quickly!
B Gourmet was a dream to work with for our wedding catering service. The B Gourmet team was incredibly helpful and responsive throughout the entire planning process. I had some things I wanted to change/customize as my date was approaching (dietary restrictions, late night snacks etc.), and B Gourmet allowed me to make these adjustments with ease. The day of the wedding, the staff was amazing and very friendly to our wedding guests! As for the food, I can't say enough about how delicious it was--we received SO many compliments for our guests on our entree selections (short rib, mahi-mahi, and stuffed chicken) and how delicious they were. Also, our guests would not stop raving about our late night snacks (gourmet grilled cheese and mini pork tacos) that the servers brought out to the dance floor towards the end of the night! B Gourmet had so many great and fun food ideas and work with you to completely customize to your liking, dietary restrictions, etc. I would highly recommend B Gourmet to anyone looking for an amazing catering service with great value in the Charleston area!
Don’t look any further for your wedding catering needs. B Gourmet is the total package – amazing food, incredible service, and a very reasonable price in an industry that is known for runaway costs. Brooke and her team are focused on delivering great customer service not just on the big day (which is obviously important!), but throughout the long planning process. They were continually available to help us shape a menu that reflected our tastes and vision, provided great recommendations, demonstrated infinite flexibility in making adjustments and customizations throughout, and worked seamlessly with our planner to make sure the details and the logistics of the wedding day were handled. Additionally, B Gourmet was the prime on our bartending contract (Mixx Bartending was great), so we had a one-stop shop for all drink and food needs, which made coordination a lot easier. All these qualities made it great to work with B Gourmet, but at the end of the day, you hire the caterer for the food. From our initial tasting, we knew B Gourmet was the real deal (try the shrimp and grits, you won’t regret it). Our guests cannot stop raving about the diverse and complementary stations and appetizers we had, and how quickly everyone was fed, including seconds and thirds! Our biggest concern on our wedding day was not IF people would enjoy the food and our caterer would deliver, but if we would have enough time to eat from our delicious menu; and even then Brooke made sure we were personally served some appetizers while we signed our marriage license, and had a plate of each station at dinner time so we had more time to talk to guests. I cannot recommend B Gourmet enough – hire them and find something else to worry about, because you and your guests will get a top-notch catering experience with this vendor.
I truly can't say enough positive things about our experience with B. Gourmet! From the very beginning, picking our menu months in advance, we were so delighted by all of the options to choose from and were so excited to finally be able to taste everything on our big day (we live in NYC and didn't do a tasting beforehand, but trusted everything would be perfect due to a glowing recommendation from our wedding coordinator).
Come our wedding, we couldn't have been happier with how our selections came to life and how tasty everything was! Food and the way that it brings people together are something that my husband and I really value - we love to cook & have people over. B.Gourmet really made our family style family dinner dreams come true. We can't recommend them enough. My only regret is not being able to eat as much as I wanted because I was nervous!
Please consider them for your big day, you certainly won't be disappointed! x
B. Gourmet was one of the best decisions we made for our wedding! Lauren K. was amazing, so kind, and so easy to work with. She helped us to find a yummy menu that would feed all 205 of our guests without breaking the bank. We got SO many compliments on the food! It seems hard to make good chicken for that many people but they did it! The staff was very professional day of and made the whole catering part seemless. They even coordinated with the linens, rentals, and bar company (also highly recommend going with MIX!) We can't recommend B. Gourmet enough!
B. Gourmet was the catering company of my dreams. The food was INCREDEIBLE, the staff was flawless and working with Lauren was a dream. My guests are still talking about how delicious the menu that B. Gourmet helped me put together and served was. Lauren was able to work within my budget, dietary needs and wants. On my wedding day, the food was perfection and I wouldn't change a thing. I will forever be grateful for you B. Gourmet...you made my wedding unforgettable.
B. Gourmet was WONDERFUL. Going into my wedding planning, my family and I were aligned in one thing: we had to have amazing food, and B. Gourmet definitely delivered! Lauren is an absolute gem to work with. She was very responsive from the beginning of the planning process and super patient with all our questions (which we had a lot of). She always got back to us within 24 hours of emailing! The day of service was amazing. Everything was absolutely delicious and I received so many compliments from guests on how amazing the food was, specifically from my dad who is VERY hard to please. She was even on the sidelines during cocktail hour with a plate of food for me and my husband who were frantically trying to get all our pictures in so we didn't have to miss out on the delicious apps! Loved everything about B. Gourmet: excellent food and excellent service.
Brooke and Greg with B. Gourmet Catering are a hidden gem in the Charleston area for wedding caterers. My husband and I were blown away during our initial consultation/tasting with Brooke (chef/owner). We elected to book that day and it definitely paid off the day of the wedding because our guests could not stop raving about the food --from the hors d'oeuvres (crab cakes, bruschetta, and chicken/waffle) to dinner (pecan chicken with bourbon maple mustard, garlic/herb flank steak, shrimp and grits, mac n cheese, and sauteed green beans). It goes without saying that Brooke and Greg should definitely consider opening a restaurant because the flavors that Brooke is able to create are out of this world! Look no further than B. Gourmet when booking a wedding caterer! You will NOT be disappointed! Thank you Brooke and Greg for being part of our special day!
The food was AMAZING! There have been multiple guests at the wedding and after tell me, “That was the best food I’ve ever had at a wedding. I loved everything you served and the hors d’oeuvres were on point”. Many people seemed to love the filets and said, “The filet was perfect. It was soft and not over cooked or under cooked and filets are difficult to serve in mass quantities at a wedding”. The staff during cocktail hour and the reception was friendly and they catered to our guests. I made multiple changes to the menu throughout the planning process and Lauren was extremely flexible and understanding. She was quick to respond to emails, answer any questions as well as make suggestions for the menu. She helped to capture an elegant southern style meal we were wanting our guests to enjoy. From the mini chicken and waffles, to the rock glass salads, silders, shrimp and grits, and filets, B. Gourmet Catering did EVERYTHING right! ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
Had many people tell us that was the best meal they have ever had at a wedding! It was amazing and Lauren was so sweet and helped me so much with more than just food selection. If I had the chance to do it all over I would pick them over and over.
Your search for the best catering company in Charleston ends now! B.Gourmet Catering is hands down THE BEST in town. We worked together on every single detail of my wedding menu and bar package for over a year. Brooke, Lauren and the rest of their team are the real deal. After our wedding, I received more texts about how incredible our food was than anything else (and this was a wedding of picky New Yorkers with very high standards)! I seriously daydream about Brooke's pasta. My husband and I are in an ongoing battle about which sauce is better - the pesto or the alla vodka. It's all amazing and we only wish Brooke would open a restaurant. From start to finish, every bite was amazing, plus you do not get better customer service than the B Gourmet team. Book them while you can if they have your date available!
I highly highly recommend B Gourmet. When we were looking for a caterer, our wedding planner gave us sample menus from various caterers in Charleston. When we looked at the menu from B. Gourmet, we knew we had to book them. They created a custom menu for our multi-cultural wedding that was so creative and smart. We could not get over how good the food was at the tasting, especially for such a unique fusion menu. All of our guests told us it was the best wedding food they had ever had, and most of our guests were from California. Our wedding planner even said it was some of the best food she's ever had and she's been to a lot of weddings! They were very professional and responsive to all communication. If you want delicious food from a talented, creative, professional company, book B. Gourmet. They made our wedding day memorable for everyone!
Wonderful, wonderful, wonderful. The planning was easy; the food was fantastic. We went with a tapas style reception which everyone really enjoyed. It was a fun way to serve dinner to a large crowd. I had never planned a wedding meal before and doing this from NJ while the bride and groom were in MO could have been a real chore but Lauren made it a pleasure. The mushroom ravioli with porcini cream, crab cakes, and the short ribs were all delicious. Your care of the guest with dietary issues was lovely. She came to me after dinner to tell me how wonderful you were and how much she enjoyed her meal.
I'd do it all over again and not change a thing! Thanks for helping to make it a fabulous day for everyone.
Brooke and Lauren are a pleasure to work with! Hands down the best caterer in Charleston. Don't waste your time with Cru, Salthouse or Duvall when you can work with B. Gourmet! We received so many compliments from our out of town guests on the food. As a bride and groom we had undivided attention from Lauren the day of the wedding, when we were still taking pictures she walked up to us with a plate of cocktail house hordurves. We heard so many stories of brides and grooms whom did not eat enough on the wedding day but we can't relate! We had snacks, full plates, drinks and even food packed to go for when we took after the wedding. B Gourmet was the EASIEST decision for us to make in all of our wedding planning. We also commuted to Bev Safe bar which partners won B Gourmet and they were also FANTASTIC! Despite hurricane Irma, and a flooding dock at Boone Hall Bec Safe transported the bar to a safe location and kept on serving our guests never meeting a beat. We had ZERO worries the day of the wedding and what more can you ask for? Amazing food, EXCELLENT service and a custom menu and bar menu? You will win everyone you pick B Gourmet.
B. Gourmet catered our May wedding and we couldn't be happier that we found them! Their food is absolutely amazing! We had a choice of filet, mahi mahi or a beefsteak tomato entree and all were delicious and HOT! We also had passed apps, a lovely dessert spread and a late night station, all of which our guests are still raving about! The service was excellent as well and the B. Gourmet team made sure all our guests were taken care of! Thank you for helping to make our wedding unforgettable! We didn't think wedding food could ever be this good!
B Gourmet is absolutely amazing!! My husband and I live in NC and getting married in Charleston was a destination wedding for us. Lauren went really out of her way to make sure the experience was as easy as possible for me. Since I was from out of town, I could not come to visit to pick out all the table decor. Lauren and I went back and fourth over dozens of emails trying to find the perfect pink tablecloth. I told her " I know I'm being difficult" but she always assured me she was happy to help. We also ran into some bad weather the week of our wedding and Lauren worked with me to switch tents and the layout of our big day.
Brooke made our amazing food both at the tasting and our wedding (so lucky to have her) and knocked it out of the park both times. My husband mentioned he didn't want goat cheese in his salad during our tasting, which was about a year before our wedding and they remembered on the wedding day!! I raved to all our family and friends about the Shrimp and Grits for months before the wedding and wanted everyone to try it. All my guest came up to me at the wedding saying it was the best Shrimp and Grits they've ever had. Everyone loved the food, service, and display. We couldn't have asked for a better caterer! Thanks Lauren and Brooke!
I cannot say enough positive things about B. gourmet!!! We planned our wedding remotely from Texas and our guests were from all over the US and raved about how delicious everything was! The appetizers were a meal alone. We had the crab cakes, which were impeccable and the bacon wrapped quail was a hit! The caprese was set on delicious baked crispy Parmesan cheese and the chicken appetizer was sweet and scrumptious. The shrimp and grits were to die for! We received so many compliments on the prime rib and Mac and cheese bar as well! The chicken and waffle bites as a late night snack were just what the guests needed before the night was over. We even were sent home with a to go bag of everything we missed from the wedding, which was a perfect breakfast the following morning. Their attention to detail, creativity and freshness were impeccable. They were also willing to work with our budget and extremely prompt and thorough with communication! I am so impressed with this company and glad our wedding coordinator, Jessica Cruz, suggested them. I would highly recommend them to anyone wanting a delicious southern meal for an event.
I had a destination wedding all our guests came down from the North East and I cant stop hearing from my guests how the FOOD was the best they ever had!!! I was so impressed with the meals and the customization they had for us during cocktail hour. Props to Lauren for making sure my husband and I ate all the food we picked out, and my favorite part of my entire wedding- Was having the incredibly beautiful/Tasty food with my husband taking in the beautiful surroundings with our family and friends. They even gave us a cute to-go bag with all our meals and apps and we had wedding cake for breakfast the next morning- it was epic! THANK YOU GUYS!!!!
