Absolutely Perfect Catering

Leslye from Absolutely Perfect Catering was so easy to work with. The day went perfectly thanks to her and her staff. We got so many compliments about the food, it was delicious! Absolutely Perfect are true professionals, they made it so easy to plan the perfect day! Thank you Leslye and team!

The food was incredible, the staff was extremely professional, and they really went the extra mile to make sure everything was perfect. People actually started arriving at the venue 30 minutes before the reception was scheduled to start, and Absolutely Perfect already had everything ready to go, and started serving food and drinks immediately.

I was very pleased with Absolutely Perfect and their catering. They appointed a young lady named Sarah to be my coordinator. We spoke multiple times over email and she was extremely helpful. The food was absolutely delicious, my guests told me they had never had such good food at a wedding, the filet was perfectly cooked and juicy and the crab cakes were to die for. One of my guests managed to walk around and get his hands on three more crab cakes from guests that did not eat shellfish! (That's how good they were.) Throughout the wedding, Sarah was there to help me. She wasn't hired as a wedding planner, but she sure acted like she was. She made sure everything was set up and ready, she worked with the DJ to make last second changes to the timeline to make things run more smoothly, and she brought food and wine out to the groom and me as we had our pictures taken during cocktail hour. She had a smile on her face the entire time and she was wonderful to work with. I will be recommending this caterer to anyone I know ever catering an event. On a day fraught with problems from the weather, and the venue (see my other reviews), Sarah treated us like we were special and the most important people at that moment in time. Thank you!

Absolutely Perfect Catering was ABSOLUTELY PERFECT! From the first time we met, Leslye was able to come up with creative ideas that would set our wedding apart from the rest. She was always coming up with something new and had so so many options! Guests raved about the taste of the food, the quality of the food even the presentation of the food! Leslye was great to work with and was VERY attentive in regards to answering emails and at the reception itself. Staff was constantly making sure my husband and I were taken care of. I simply cannot say enough good things about Leslye and her amazing company and staff. We will definitely be using them for any future catered events that we host and HIGHLY recommend them to brides and grooms!

From the first time we met with the team at Absolutely Perfect, we knew we were in good hands. Our catering manager, Kimberly, took care of our every need. She kept in regular contact with me via email and phone, and was always there to answer every question/request I had throughout the process. She was available, positive, helpful, flexible, and full of ideas. She bore with me as I changed my mind about menu choices, flip-flopped about linens, and fretted about our time line. She advised me on important details that I would have otherwise overlooked. The day of the wedding, she was there to patch up any mishaps. When the tables arrangement was out of order, she promptly rearranged it. When we were taking pictures, she brought the wedding party drinks and snacks. When we ran out of vodka partway through the night, she went out and purchased more. The AP team made our wedding day perfect. I will recommend them to anyone in the Baltimore area.

Leslye and her staff were amazing!! I had a very tight budget and she was able to provide a menu that fit my budget, style of the reception, and was delicious. I live in Texas and my wedding took place in Maryland and Leslye was very supportive even from hundreds of miles away. She had no problem letting my bridesmaids do my tasting for me was always available to talk if I had questions. The day of was stress free because she assinged a personal waiter to myself and my husband, Stephen, who was fantastic!! He even bustled my dress!! My husband, Stanley and I, were over the moon about the superb customer service provided and would use this company anytime. My wedding guest are still talking about how great the food was and how beautiful the decor was. We had perfect wedding and Absolutely Perfect made that possible. Thank you so much Leslye, I could not of asked for a better caterer.

I stared my relationship with this company in early 2010, when I was on my hunt for a cater for our wedding planned for October 2011. At this time my mom was also starting to get very sick with ovarian cancer. I wasn’t great about returning calls but they continued calling me and had a genuine interest in helping me with my big day. Since they follow up with me so often, I thought they deserved a chance—and I was right! My experience with this cater was beyond words. Before making our deposit with them, they had an open house, more like a fun party. There we met vendors and tried a bunch of different foods, cocktails, and desserts! We had a great time, and then knew their food would be great too---so we made our deposit. As the date approached, my mom’s health drastically declined. We had to move my wedding up so that she could see it. Sarah, work with me to find another venue and in every way possible to make this day perfect. She helped me find a new date that worked all around, she helped us to pick the perfect menu which met our budget, style and with very yummy food. They even made a special Trini dish to represent my husband’s culture! Sarah helped coordinate the entire day so even though pictures took longer than expected the night went off without a hitch! The food was very good, the bartenders were great, and Steve, who waited on the wedding party, made my wedding awesome for me, he assured I always had a drink…even some water :)In the end my wedding was better than I ever imagined-thanks to the help of Absolutely Perfect! I would recommend this company to anybody planning an event, they were absolutely wonderful!

Absolutely Perfect Catering - especially Leslye and Lindsey - were professional and helped us with every detail of the ceremony and reception. We planned our entire wedding from out of state and after one meeting with Leslye, she knew exactly what we wanted and made sure it all worked perfectly. The food was amazing and there was never a line for the bars. Our reception was perfect or if there were any problems, Leslye and her staff made sure we never heard about it. Leslye worked our event and her personal touches made our ceremony and reception at the American Visionary Art Museum even better than we expected.

I truly cannot say enough kind words about Absolutely Perfect and the job they did, not just on the day of our wedding, but in the planning process leading up to it. The food was delicious and Leslye made us feel confident and comfortable that we were in the right hands throughout our work with the company. Leslye and Lindsey were extremely flexible with menu choices and easy to communicate with. In addition to helping with food selection, Leslye was available and amazingly helpful when dealing with our rental company (our venue required us to work with a specific company) -- Leslye made sure we had exactly what we needed, and was able to cut down the cost where possible, which was very much appreciated.On the day of the wedding, I received compliments all night long, not just about the quality of the food (which I was told was the best wedding food ever from a bunch of picky New Yorkers), but also with regard to the kindness and friendliness of the staff! Everyone truly felt like they were being taken care of. When the ceremony was finished, the staff was waiting with glasses of ice water for our guests, and Leslye and the event manager brought samplings of the hors d'oeuvres and water to my husband and I while we took pictures -- they were extremely thoughtful and left no detail hanging. (My husband even told me Leslye brought a bowl of berries to my mother at the end of the evening because she had been watching her and noticed she was so busy that she had not eaten much throughout the night -- small details like this truly made Absolutely Perfect so amazing, aside from their delicious food!)From the appetizers (not eating more butternut squash empanadas is my ONE regret from the entire wedding) to the cake -- everything was delicious and perfect! Now I just hope I get to work with them again soon!Thanks Leslye!!!

Awesome food and very friendly staff...they made planning my wedding so much easier, and everything turned out exactly as I imagined. I would definately recommend absolutely perfect for any event!! :)

Wonderful! From customer service to quality of food. From the beginning to the end it was great working with them and I've received many compliments from my guests on the food quality. There is nothing negative I would say...Definitely recommend them!

APC and Michelle were wonderful. Michelle went above and beyond in practically every way. For example, the day before the wedding, our venue lost power. Michelle spent the whole day coming up with a back up plan and calling the venue for updates so that I didn't have to. If that's not professionalism and service I don't know what is! We had a REALLY tight time schedule for set up and tear down, and her team did it perfectly. She even brought out trays of drinks/snacks to the wedding party as we took photos while everyone was enjoying cocktail hour! Impeccable, really. The food was amazing, and everyone we talked to said it was their most enjoyable wedding food to date. She worked with us to make sure it was exactly to our taste, and the set up was beautiful and exactly matched the rest of our decor and the vibe we were going for. And the price was very, very right on. Honestly, we've recommend APC and Michelle to everyone we know, and my husband and I will never use another caterer. We were 110% satisfied, and our guests were too!

The menu APC put together for our December 2009 wedding was delicious, and budget-friendly. We had several vegetarians and allergies to take into consideration, and we ended up with a menu that pleased everyone at our reception. Working with Michele was amazing - she thought of all the things I would have completely overlooked, and our reception was one of the prettiest I have ever seen. My husband and our families will definitely use APC again!! -- Ashley Daniels Schall, 12.18.09

Michele Goldberg from Absolutely Perfect was just wonderful. She was incredibly responsive to all of our requests, and everything was exactly the way we wanted it to be. The only thing I would critique about them is that Michele Goldberg did not actually attend our event, as it was assumed that she was, and some things that she knew about our event didn't get passed on to the day-of coordinator who was there. Aside from that, the food was great and the service was outstanding. I was told by several people that they would use Absolutely Perfect for future events.

The food was great!!! They did a great job setting up for the reception to include setting up my candy bar and all of the food tables looked nice.

Michelle G was fantastic! Helped to keep us on schedule and also accepted any changes that we wanted. She was easy to get ahold of and very personable! Their prices were fantastic and so was the food! Would definitely use them again!

I would recommend this vendor to anyone!!! Michele was amazing and thought of everything. We got an amazing deal and got more than we asked for. Everything was beautiful and the staff was wonderful! I was sooooo happy with everything. They even sent us home with the extra food (they said we had paid for it anyway so why not?). We ended up getting our cake through them more out of convenience than because we heard they made great cakes but oh my god it was perfect. Better than I could have dreamed AND it tasted great! I highly recommend splurging for the ice cream bar too:) These guys also can do fancier receptions/events and have access to beautiful dishes, tablecloths, and a million other accessories. I can't go on enough about how wonderful they were!

Absolutely Perfect Catering catered my outdoor wedding for 250 people on May 31, 2008. The service they provided was top notch. From beginning to end, they were so easy to work with and so professional. They responded to any question I had immediately and were so helpful with the planning. I had absolutely no worries on the day of my wedding, I knew everything was taken care of by them - my wedding was perfect. I would reccommend them 100%!

This company was wonderful to work with, both during the planning process and during our wedding. Kimberly was very easy to reach during the planning stages, very detail oriented, and had great suggestions on catering and other wedding topics. The staff during the wedding was wonderful, and the food was delicious. We hadn't realized beforehand how expensive catering can be, but Absolutely Perfect went out of their way to help us keep costs down. The only suggestion I would make would be to donate leftover food to a local food pantry. Thank you for a wonderful wedding!!

Absolutely Perfect Catering truly lives up to it's name! I worked with Kimberly who was very accommodating, even with our dietary restrictions of creating a completely VEGAN wedding reception. Kimberly and the Absolutely Perfect staff made my wedding everything I dreamed it could be and took loads of pressure off myself and my new husband!!
