I used CBD for my December 2023 wedding at The Library at 190 S LaSalle. The services were impeccable. I obtained proposals from several caterers from the venue's preferred caterers' list and went for tasting with two caterers. CBD's pricing is competitive compared with larger caterers, and menu options and tasting experience were better than smaller caterers. Lots of great hors d'oeuvres. Erin is very responsive, organized, and flexible. We were able to customize sides for entrees. On the wedding day, the captain (Aukse) was extremely professional, competent and attentive. We fully trust her and went with her recommendations for an on-the-spot change. The set-up was beautiful without any supervision. Flipping from ceremony layout to reception layout was done quickly. I believe they collaborated with the florist very well. They were also nice enough to box leftover cake and entrees for confirmed guests who could not show up. I would definitely recommend CBD.

Jamie and her team did an amazing job at our wedding on 8-10-25. Not only were they so attentive the day of the wedding, they were so incredibly helpful and patient leading up to our wedding day with all of our guests allergies but most importantly, us. Jamie and Natalie made sure that we knew to approach them with any questions that we might have with anything, they responded quickly and even made the effort to call us whenever we asked to talk on the phone for further clarification on some questions we had. My husband and I got so many compliments from our guests that the food was great, which was such a relief to hear! It’s hard to trust caterers that know what they are doing plus the food tasting good, but my chef catering did just that. We are so glad that we booked our wedding with them, so please book with my chef catering! They have so many good food options for not only the main dish but for hor’devours, late night snacks, salads, and even desserts. Your guests will thank you for it!

Seed Sprout Spoon 

5.0

Saint Louis, MO
  • Serves Illinois

We are an owner-operated boutique catering & events company dedicated to local ingredients and sustainable event production. This simple tenet is a hardy root which has diverse branches: our food is fresher, seasonal, and best-tasting; we have a dedicated staff whom we pay a living wage; we support other small local businesses; dollars you spend stay in our local economy. Our event displays marry upcycled & vintage elements with live botanical arrangements. We limit the extreme waste of event catering by composting and recycling at home & off-site. We seek to serve well: both our customers & their guests, our community & our planet.

Having great food was my husband's number one priority for the wedding. We happen to be vegan and unfortunately if you filter by that here you can see that what many caterer's mean by "we offer vegan food" is "we will make a plate of spaghetti with nothing else for your one vegan guest" and that is the opposite of what we got with Seed Sprout and Spoon. They went above and beyond with our menu! They sent us their menu and we were able to work with them to alter dishes that fit our needs. They can do buffet or plated, we went with buffet because we only had a guest list of about 50 people. For cocktail hour we opted for a pretzel bar with four different dips. Our main meal was a nice hearty salad with fruit and nuts, a creamy polenta with bolognese made with Beyond meat, an absolutely delicious white (cashew cream) lasagna with kale, roasted asparagus, an eggplant/bell pepper caponata, and an assorted bread basket. For dessert we had a cake from another vendor but wanted additional dessert for people who aren't into cake and we went with some mini fruit tarts. Finally we also had our plates/glasses provided by them and they have a beautiful collection of mismatched tableware. Pretty much everyone went back for seconds and I don't think we had a single guest who we saw/spoke to over the next couple of days who didn't comment on how this was some of the best food they've ever had a wedding period. Not just good for vegan food but all around great!

Big Delicious Planet, named the “Greenest Caterer in America” since 2013, is one of the most sought after Chicago wedding caterers for couples who want flavorful, vibrant food with sustainability in mind. We cater highly-styled, glamorous weddings, and romantic, vintage weddings at venues all across the city and intimate weddings, elopements, and rehearsal dinners in our own urban farm. During our growing season, we’ll use the produce we harvest for your wedding!

We chose BDP to cater our September 2024 wedding at Firehouse Chicago and would absolutely recommend them to anyone looking for an event caterer. Jasmine was such a delight to work with from start to finish in planning our event - from the initial quote and inquiries, our tasting, planning along the way, our final walkthrough, and execution day-of. We were so lucky to have found BDP and felt supported in our wedding planning process from start to finish. But most of all, BDP served up some incredible food and beverages. Finding the right food and drinks for our wedding was important to us, so choosing the right caterer and bartending staff was crucial. BDP sources their produce and herbs from their urban farm in West town, and the everything they made for our wedding was so fresh, inventive, and unique. Their food is 1000 times better than any you will ever have at a wedding - it's more like dining at a nice Chicago restaurant than eating the standard dry chicken breast most wedding caterers produce. We loved our meal and had multiple guests come up to use during dinner to comment on how good the food was. I'm still craving another bite of their tortellini! They paid such attention to detail with everything leading up to the wedding and several of our guest's special dietary needs. Everyone had something safe and delicious to eat, and we felt so lucky to be supported by them. The speciality cocktails BDP made for our wedding were also the best drinks I've ever had at a wedding- by far! They even did some special cocktail infusions ahead of time for a favorite cocktail of ours that we never imaged could be served at a wedding. It was so delicious, so unique, and just overall amazing. If you're looking for a wedding caterer, look no further.

People were raving about the food at our wedding but not just how good it was but how much there was. The Catering Director: Shannon curated the perfect menu for us and even designed a signature drink for our doggie. Shannon was there to help us and advise us with everything from alcohol supply list to just checking in on us through the day. 100% go with Brix!
