Draper's did the most amazing job catering my daughter's wedding. The food was exquisite. So many guests told me it was the best food they've ever eaten at a wedding. The quality was superb, everything was served at the perfect temperature, the portions were just right, and the presentation was lovely. At the wedding, Mary was an absolute godsend. She arranged everything beautifully, advised us on other parts of the setup, and by the end of the night, she felt like family. They are just the best!

I can't say enough good things about Draper's Catering. They made every aspect of planning with them a breeze. I went into my wedding day feeling confident that everything was taken care of. Our servers were lovely, and incredibly thoughtful. The food was delicious and looked gorgeous on the table. My guests were wowed by the displays and the service. Draper's took excellent care of us and I'm delighted with everything they did!

Draper's made my wedding the talk of everyone with many "best wedding food ever" and "great appetizers." Not only was the food good- I'd argue one of my favorite people to work with while planning my wedding without a planner. For tasting they provided a sit down, plated experience with multiple options to create a meal tailored to us. Payment was easy and competitive. They provided services such as waitstaff, alcohol drop off/chilling/bartending, plates/silverware with cleanup included. Always quick to answer via email or by phone with pleasant conversation. 10/10 will use for any catering services in future!
