We were referred to Teatime for our wedding catering by a family member. Teatime catered a rather complex wedding for us including two receptions on the same day and a rehearsal dinner the night before. The event happened during the covid-19 pandemic. Teatime was very conscientious about modifying their procedures to make it as safe as possible. Everything turned out wonderfully. We were very happy with the service and the quality of the food.

The desserts were especially tasty. We had some mini desserts prepared for us and these were a standout. Seafood was prepared just right. We had leftover flowers and Teatime went the extra mile in arranging them over the catering tables as decoration. Ruth invested a lot of time in meeting with us and discussing things via phone and email. We had to change venues and change from one reception to two. She rolled with the punches and everything turned out beautifully!
