    We were thrilled with Vida Cantina Catering for our wedding! From our first meeting, they were enthusiastic about helping us create a delicious menu that would accommodate all of our guests' dietary needs. Their communication was consistently kind, thoughtful and detailed - we never felt stressed about the catering. On the big day, the food was unmatched in both taste and presentation. The gluten-free and vegan dishes in particular drew rave reviews from guests with restrictions. Everything flowed smoothly behind the scenes as well - Vida Cantina made it easy for us to relax and enjoy our reception. Their experienced team handled the execution flawlessly while providing top-notch service with a smile. We would enthusiastically recommend Vida Cantina to any couple searching for a caterer who delivers exceptional food and service while making wedding planning truly enjoyable.

    We loved working with Vida to have a taco bar at our wedding. What you don’t see on their website is that they’ll go above and beyond to make you the food you want! If you want creative delicious food of any style (but particularly Mexican) get in touch with Vida Cantina.
