Dupree catered my daughter's rehearsal dinner and welcome party, and I cannot recommend them highly enough! From the very beginning, they were thoughtful, attentive, and incredibly accommodating. We had guests with a wide range of dietary needs. Jeremy and his team went above and beyond to curate a menu that made everyone feel included and well cared for.
Not only was the food absolutely delicious and beautifully presented, but the service was seamless and professional throughout the entire evening. They listened carefully to our vision and brought it to life with creativity and care, crafting a meal that truly set the tone for our wedding weekend. Our guests are still raving about the flavors and variety.
If you’re looking for a caterer who combines culinary excellence with genuine hospitality and flexibility, Dupree and Chef Jeremy are the ones for you!
Dupree Catering was absolutely phenomenal! We are still getting compliments over 4 months after our wedding. The hors d’oeuvres were AMAZING and the waiters were sure to make sure my husband and I got them right out of the kitchen, which was a great touch! The KY hot brown puffs were an enormous hit, as were the Korean fried chicken with kimchi & bacon wrapped pear with goat cheese. The salad was delightful - even our picky eaters loved it! We chose two proteins for dinner and the quality was top tier. Every plate for all 100 of our guests was cooked *perfectly*. Truly, we have never had such good wedding food! Natalie helped us build our menu and worked so hard to make sure we were happy with our food. We are so lucky to have used Dupree for our wedding, and will definitely be using them for future events!
