Kevin catered our daughter’s wedding just recently at our property with 43 guests. From contacting Kevin 2 months ago asking him if he was available up to and including the day of the wedding his planning and communicating was amazing! Kevin certainly put my mind at ease that we had chosen the right person for the catering of our daughter’s wedding. Kevin provided sample menus, and our daughter and fiancé went through and chose the dishes that they wanted as it was a buffet style menu. Kevin adapted items to their requirements and importantly adapted recipes to suit guests who had food allergies. Nothing was a hassle for Kevin which was very refreshing. Kevin and his team worked seamlessly and comments from all the guests that attended the wedding were how amazing the food was, how Kevin and his team were attentive and very friendly and approachable. We certainly will be calling Kevin for any further catering when required.

Thankyou Kevin and Amanda for your wonderful catering for our work function with 13 guests. We were celebrating three industry awards and one community award that we had won during the year but the awards celebrations had all been cancelled. We had 5 courses each of which was perfectly presented and tasted delicious. Kevin explained the origins and content of each course. This was a truly memorable evening and was praised by all of our guests. Kevin and Amanda left our kitchen spotless. We are planning a family event next year and Kevin will definitely be doing the catering.

We had Kevin and his team cater our wedding of 60 guests in February and I couldn't recommend them enough. The food was great, our guests were really happy with the service, Kevin was super easy to communicate with, very transparent and reasonable prices. We considered many different options for food for our wedding and we are very glad we decided to go with Kevin Blakeman.
