Planning perspective
What to consider before reaching out
A strong first conversation is about fit, not just availability. Share your date, approximate guest count, location, and the feeling you want the day to have. Ask what is included, what typically changes the final quote, and what decisions need to be made earliest.
For a catering partner, confirm how communication works, who will be present on the day, and how the team handles changes. Pricing was not included in the supplied research, so request a current, itemized proposal directly from the business.

I catered an after-wedding ceremony event in my home for 35 people. Fantastic food, beautiful presentation, lovely and helpful staff. I highly recommend them and will use them again for my catering needs. All positives from me and my guests loved it all.

“The food was beyond incredible, beyond expectations.” -all of our guests. B+B catered our 80-person wedding and we get non-stop complements from guests about how incredible the food tasted. They also mentioned how kind the staff was as many of our guest told us they struck up a conversation with the staff because the food was so good. B+B was a recommendation from our venue. We live out of state so we had one weekend to pick food when we visited Maine. They provided us with large portions of a sample dinner and my whole family agreed that this was the catering we needed. They were gracious in coordinating our selections and clear on the process from putting down a deposit to day of detai...

These guys are seriously awesome! Michelle and Curtis catered our wedding at Pacifica gardens and the food was AMAZING! Literally all of our guests have been raving about the food since!

“This is the best wedding food I’ve ever had!” - MANY seasoned wedding guests. We are over the moon to have had the pleasure to work with Bread + Butter for our Portland, Maine wedding. Reviews from our guests (and ourselves) were unbelievable - “the best wedding food I’ve ever had” was the unanimous response. The Bread + Butter team were extremely easy and fun to work with, from the amazing tasting, to the communication before the wedding, to the wedding itself. The food was out of this world and there was nothing that they brought out that wasn’t delicious. They brought our vision of a wedding that felt more like a giant dinner party of all our closest friends and family to life with thei...

This is my second experience with Bread & Butter Catering and they did not disappoint! I hosted a party for 60+ people. I made a few dishes myself and ordered several from B&B. First of all, the food is delicious with a fresh take on classic dishes. The mixed raw and grilled veggies came beautifully presented with two dipping choices. I also ordered grilled chicken skewers, that had an aromatic spice and grilled chick peas. I would highly recommend both of these. It was such a relief to have a catering company do some of the food for this party. And the process was seamless. If I need catering in the future, I will definitely hire Bread & Butter Catering!
