Testimonials
Chef by Design was so great to work with for my wedding!! We had the pleasure of working with Kellyn during our planning process and she was professional, nice, helpful, and quick to respond. Kellyn and her team made the planning process so easy and day of was so smooth and amazing. Their food display looked so great (not just in boring silver chafers), their staff was SO nice and quick day of. Their bartenders were so attentive and always made sure my husband and I had a drink in our hand while also making sure our guests had what they needed. I have had many friends tell me it was the best wedding food they have had!! I 100% recommend having Chef By Design for your wedding or any of your other catering needs!!!

I’m a local wedding planner that owns Amber Justine Events. I’ve had the absolute pleasure of working with Chef By Design on dozens of occasions. From booking to event breakdown, they give such excellent care to both their clients, guests, and vendor teams on wedding days. Not a fork is out of place nor a rental missed on an order. Food is never cold and always top of the line. Dietary needs are meet and drinks are perfectly crafted. Their pre-event notes are the most detailed out of any caterer in the area, which pleases us on a planning level. We know for certain that the careful plans made by us/couples are going to be seen through to the end. For this reason and many more, they are always one of our top recommendations to couples. We promise that they are worth every last penny! I could go on and on forever <3

I hired Chef By Design to cater an in home party this past January and they were excellent to work with. Kellyn was very easy to work with & very responsive to every request and menu change I made. The day of event she arrived with the chef & an assistant and set a beautiful table, paying close attention to all the details. The chef prepared all the hot appetizers in my kitchen & the food was amazing. My guests were raving about the variety and the excellent tasting food, very impressed, said I raised the bar for neighborhood parties! Would definitely choose them again to cater any event.

My company has used Chef by Design multiple times now and each time has been met with incredible professionalism and enthusiasm. I’ve had the privilege of coordinating with Kellyn over the last couple of years and she has worked tirelessly to ensure all of my random and odd requests were accommodated. CBD has made event planning easy and stress free, allowing for an evening that can simply be enjoyed. Additionally, their product has by far surpassed expectations or hopes. They have provided quality food, beverage, and service. Through menu changes, additional drink menus, and longer hours, CBD has worked with my to create wonderful events. I highly recommend utilizing their services (again and again and again).
