No matter how many great things I say about Adelaide Catering, it will not be enough. This catering company, did the most amazing job catering 2 events during our daughter's college graduation senior week. Bea and her team could not have been more attentive to every detail to ensure that both events were executed flawlessly. The food, ambiance, bars, literally everything about the events was perfect. I couldn't believe how many people stopped me to tell me how fabulous of a time they had at both events which we could not have pulled off without Adelaide. If you need a caterer that you can trust to meet your every need, search no more. Thank you Bea and your amazing staff for making such amazing memories for us!!!

What an amazing company! They exceeded my expectations and made our wedding magical. Their servers were extremely professional and their timing was on point. We did a plated dinner for 200 and everything came out the same time and beautifully plated. Our guests were overjoyed. They also made the space look absolutely gorgeous. They made every step of the process easy and exciting. We could not be happier!

I have worked with Adelaide on multiple catered events for my workplace. The food is absolutely delicious, and my staff is always excited when I tell them we are ordering from here! It is always a pleasure working with Adelaide. They provide us with lots of options and we narrow down a menu that best fits the dietary needs of my staff. In addition the ability to have our meals individually packaged is a plus! I am never disappointed with the level of professional service and the quality of the meals. Thank you to all of the hardworking team members at Adelaide.

We got so lucky finding Adelaide and even luckier that they were available on such short notice! We ultimately decided to use Adelaide because of their responsiveness. Bea was quick to respond but never pushy. Adelaide handled food, drink, set-up, clean-up, flowers...almost everything for our big day! It was so easy to use one vendor to handle all of these tasks. Many guests commented on how beautiful the bouquets were and how good the food was. We weren't disappointed, either. One of our guests said "this is the best wedding food I ever had" and several others raved about the mashed potatoes. Bea really did a good job coming up with a menu that fit our taste buds but also worked with the Maryland fall weather. Their customer service was tremendous which was appreciated on a day so important to us. I'd definitely recommend Adelaide!

What an absolute pleasure it was to work with Adelaide Catering Company. From start to finish they made the planning of my wedding simple and exciting. From the flowers, to the DJ, staffing, decor and most of all the food 😋, everything was perfect and exactly what I had imagined. My husband and I got nothing but excellent feedback on how beautiful everything was and how DELICIOUS the food was. They blew everything out of the park. With 180 guests it was a much larger wedding than we had originally planned on, but Adelaide really made everything unforgettable. Especially thanks to Eric for dealing with my bridezilla a couple times during the process and foe calming my nerves every step of the way. I definitely recommend Adelaide for anyone’s special day!
