    Giselle & her team are truly incredible. The communication and patience they had with us during our wedding planning was unmatched. I honestly expected to have mediocre food. I’ve never been to a wedding with normal catering and thought “wow that was great food”. I kid you not, every single guest and vendor we spoke to RAVED about how good our food was. It was so much better than we expected and even better than our tastings! I’ll be craving that meal for years to come. I couldn’t recommend these guys enough!

      La Pera Catering 

      5.0

      • Serves Austin, TX

      Let's create your dream menu! Our culinary & planning team will consult with you to work up fun seasonal and locally inspired menus, cocktail hour pairings, pop up dessert bars & even dream up custom options that scream YOU TWO! We will walk through the in’s and out’s of your special day, coordinate with all vendors involved and review service styles that are the best fit for your venue, layout & overall flow of the event. You can expect colorful, beautifully presented - and most importantly delicious options with a little Latin flare to choose from at every budget level, that everyone in the crowd will enjoy!

      We cannot express enough gratitude for the incredible service provided by La Pera. I would give them 10 stars if I could!! They came in at the last hour after we were impacted by Royal Fig's closure, and immediately got us in for a tasting, answering any and all questions with patience and expertise. La Pera's responsiveness and willingness to accommodate all allergies were outstanding. Everything was clearly marked during passed appetizers so guests know what was included. They went above and beyond to make special gluten-free appetizers just for me, the bride, which was such a thoughtful touch. And let's not forget the food and cocktails—they were nothing short of incredible! Being from the northeast, incredible food was a MUST at our wedding and the La Pera team knocked it out of the park. Not only do they have unique and differentiated menu offering, every bite was so flavorful and wowed us. Our guests are still raving about how delicious everything was. We did a full service dinner with hibiscus chicken & braised short-rib with a side of guajillo mashed potatoes and both entrees were some of the best food we've ever eaten. Their team truly put our minds at ease during a stressful time. Planning full-service catering for 100 people within just 45 days seemed seamless under their expert guidance. The staff was very friendly and made the entire experience enjoyable and stress-free. We are so grateful and happy that we found La Pera to cater our wedding and can't recommend them enough!!

      Chef Adriana had carried two things with her since she was a child: a passion for food, and a red notebook. Through mock restaurants in her family home cooking meals for her sisters and friends before prom to culinary school, pastry classes, and working on the line at busy restaurants, her Red Book stayed full of ideas. And when she filled one, another Red Book took its place.

      We couldn’t have asked for a more perfect catering experience for our wedding day! From the moment we tasted their exquisite menu options, including the flavorful brussel sprouts, tender short rib, creamy mashed potatoes, refreshing salad, indulgent mac n cheese, and juicy chicken breast with an avocado salsa, we knew we were in for a treat. The food was not only delicious but beautifully presented, hot and on-time adding an extra touch of elegance to our special day. Our guests couldn’t stop raving about how fantastic everything tasted. We could not be more pleased and highly recommend Red Book Events services. A huge thank you to the talented team behind this culinary magic for helping to make our wedding day unforgettable!

      Wild Whisk

      • Starts at $750
      • Serves Austin, TX

      We are a private family boutique business working alongside our 4 children to teach them work ethic and business principles. My husband is an attorney and the “meat master” of the operation and I am a former pro makeup artist who now bosses people around about their appetizers and their aesthetic. We attended so many events where the food just sucked…..we knew we could do better and here we are, killing it in catering!!

      Our wedding was made even more memorable thanks to the exquisite catering provided by Wild Whisk. From the outset, their team demonstrated professionalism and a keen eye for detail, ensuring that every aspect of our wedding meal was nothing short of perfect. One of the highlights of their service was the Chicken Picatta. It was a hit among our guests, who raved about the perfectly cooked chicken, the balance of flavors in the sauce, and how it paired beautifully with the green beans and mash potatoes. The dish was not only delicious but also presented with elegance, adding a touch of class to our wedding dinner. But the culinary delights began even before the main course. Wild Whisk's appetizers were a topic of conversation throughout the evening. Each appetizer was a burst of flavor, beautifully presented, and served with the perfect accompaniment. My personal favorite was the couscous! I ate probably 3 of them in between socializing with our guests. What set Wild Whisk apart was their commitment to quality and flavor. It was evident that they used high-quality, fresh ingredients, and their culinary skills shone through in every dish they served. The service staff was also impeccable, providing attentive and friendly service that made our guests feel well taken care of throughout the evening. Choosing Wild Whisk as our caterer was one of the best decisions we made for our wedding. Their dedication to creating a memorable dining experience for us and our guests was apparent in every detail. We received numerous compliments on the food, and many guests asked for their contact information for their own events. We cannot thank Wild Whisk enough for their part in making our wedding day so special. Their exceptional food, outstanding service, and the overall dining experience they provided were beyond our expectations. We highly recommend Wild Whisk to anyone looking for catering services that truly stand out.
