Philip Stone Caterers

rs. When our initial catering manager quit, no one filled us in or kept us aware of what was going on, the second manager was an absolute moron, but luckily third times a charm and our final catering manager was Brandon Harris who was an absolute delight to work with. Throughout the final 8 months of planning Brandon was excellent at communication, easy to reach, honest, professional, and helpful, and quick to set up meetings whenever I needed them. The tasting was accommodating and delicious and the food choices are fantastic and plentiful. The cocktail hour had 10 passed appetizers, and two stations (though the options are endless depending on what you’d like to spend), the bar package is good with the option to add on additional signature cocktails. Tayla was our maître D and was super helpful with us dropping all of our décor items off as well as setting things up the day of. Brandon ran an exceptional day of- he kept calm and was very organized and had everyone comfortable. Our bridal attendant went above and beyond to make sure we had everything we needed, she was so incredibly helpful. The day of the wedding there was an issue with the decorations for the ceremony space even though we were clear about what we would be doing, they made our florist change it last minute. The food was good although I found the fish to be far less remarkable than what we were given at the tasting. Everyone at the wedding seemed to be rather pleased with the food, especially the dessert parade and cocktail hour. My biggest issue with the catering was the fact that twice throughout the night the venue ran out of red wine. When my father asked for a glass at the cocktail hour the bartender said “We ran out up here, but you can walk to the carriage house and get some,” and I found that to be wildly inappropriate since he was throwing the entire event, I just feel that for the cost that issue should’ve never came up. With that being said I think if Brandon was notified he probably would’ve fixed the problem as he did a seamless job of handling the many difficult aspects of the wedding throughout the day.

fun and he was extremely patient and helpful. While he's technically the catering director, he served as an unofficial wedding planner too. We met with him countless times to discuss the layout, flow, catering, etc. Moe helped to make our vision a reality and we can't express how grateful we are to have had him on our wedding team. In terms of the food, we were blown away with how delicious everything was, not only at our tasting, but also at the wedding itself. The menu is super flexible and seasonal. I was extremely impressed with the number of vegetarian options on the 55 page menu, as it seems like an afterthought for most other caterers. Almost all of our guests have commented on the food and how fresh and delectable their meals were. I would highly recommend Philip Stone!

tastic!!!!! The food was phenomal, as was the presentation. They offered a huge amount of choices and we got a lot of food for what we paid. All of our guests raved about the food and the exceptional service provided by their staff. They were incredibly professional and attentive. Moe (Mostafa), the catering manager and Alexis were such a job to work with. They also helped with the planning and the day of coordination and really did a superb job! I would highly recommend this caterer for any event you may be having, especially a wedding. They exceeded expectations!!

process. We could not have asked for a more special or wonderful experience. My husband and I truly had the wedding we dreamed of. The food was creative and delicious and served with style and artistry. Their staff was highly professional and a pleasure to work with. Everything ran smoothly, seemingly effortlessly, and Lorraine handled the inevitable minor issues with grace and good humor. All of her recommendations, from food choices, to timing, to renting AC, were spot-on and added to our event. Your attention to detail, things like having a fruit and veggie platter in the bridal suite, or reminding the bridesmaids how to hold their bouquets, was much appreciated. We had a hiccup in the beginning of the wedding planning process when the original head caterer of Philip Stone left and did not inform my family... we were upset but Lorraine really stepped up and made us feel comfortable... despite our initial concern about the change, she was up to the task and we were very pleased to work with her. All of our guests commented how delicious the food was at our wedding, and the DESSERTS - wow to die for! We hope to have the opportunity to plan another celebration with Lorraine and Philip Stone Catering in the future!

p until the day of the wedding. He is an absolute pro and is such a gentleman. He really knows the business well and gave us so much advice and a lot of recommendations. The day of the wedding John was managing the event and he fabulous. He kept everything running seamlessly and by the time the event was over, you wouldn't have known they were even there. The place was spotless. I am getting hungry just thinking about the food now hahaha

ajraji, my fears dissipated and I knew I could trust him with my life. His professionalism, communication, attention to details and honesty made him stand out above all the other directors we met. I felt he would do anything for us and helped us plan and execute the most perfect night of our lives! The food options at Philip Stone are incredible and they are extremely flexible as well. The spread at our cocktail hour was amazing- sushi, meatballs, roasted meats, scallops, truffle grilled cheese/tomato soup shooters. Our bridal attendant (also employed through Philip Stone) was a rockstar and made sure we tried EVERYTHING. I was blown away at our sit down dinner as I thought it was more delicious than our tasting! I highly recommend Philip Stone and hope we can work together in the future (or be invited to an event they cater!)

ll priced and extremely professional, I always felt content and left for my honeymoon on cloud nine from the best night of my life! I highly recommend this company and would serve as a positive reference to anyone!
