24 Carrots

We loved 24 Carrots! The food was absolutely delicious! So many guests came up to us and told us it was the best food they had ever had at a wedding. The staff on the wedding day was great. They kept the food and drinks coming and were very friendly and accommodating. The food was my husband's favorite part of the whole wedding!

We worked with Heather Smith and I can't say enough good things about her! She helped us get the perfect linens, which wasn't exactly easy. Finding linens in the color we wanted was a little tough, but Heather still managed to find us multiple options. She was very attentive and I always felt like she genuinely cared about our wedding. Not all wedding vendors act this way, so I really appreciated it! If you're thinking of working with 24 Carrots, I would definitely request to work with Heather!

We've already recommended 24 Carrots to several friends who are getting married soon. I can't imagine them doing anything less than a stellar job!

I can't say enough about how great it has been working with Laura Burkle of 24 Carrots. We live in NYC and have been working with Laura to plan our September wedding at Castle Green in Pasadena. She has gone above and beyond not only in the food and rentals that 24 carrots provides, but in coordinating with other vendors to meet our traditional and cultural aspects for the wedding. Laura is a breath of fresh air. You would hope that all people you work for would be like her. She is thoughtful, thorough and incredibly accommodating. She has really allowed us to enjoy the planning process of our wedding- especially since we are across the country and can't meet with many of the vendors ourselves.

We loved the food in the tasting- the chef was not only incredibly talented but personable and fun. I feel like I'm in great hands with the staff at 24 carrots and highly recommend.

I am somewhat of a food snob and cook a lot. In a major leap of faith, we hired 24 Carrots without tasting their food first -- and on our wedding day, we couldn't have been happier! We were planning our wedding from out of state and didn't have time to fly out for a food tasting. Instead we sent our wedding coordinator and my parents to a tasting because we felt our coordinator understood the level of quality and type of food we wanted. I've been to probably 10-15 weddings over the past three/four years and none of their food even came close to that of 24 Carrots. Let's be real, most wedding food is mediocre at best. But the hors d'oeuvres we picked from 24 Carrots were better than a lot of restaurants'. The entrees were well seasoned, well cooked, beautifully plated, and just overall felt like you were getting a special meal. Many of our guests raved about the food afterwards.

We had been trying to decide between 24 Carrots and another top-tier caterer in Southern CA. I did taste the other caterer's food (it was excellent) but didn't taste 24Cs so I couldn't base my decision on food. What impressed me about 24 Cs was that the catering manager assigned to me asked me if I was working with a wedding planner. I gave her the name and the catering manager said, "Oh, great. I haven't worked with her before but I'm looking forward to meeting her." In contrast, when the other caterer asked me about my coordinator, their response was a flat "Oh." I don't know if that meant disgust, disinterest, or what. But it turned me off and since then I did not regret choosing 24 Cs. Also, we hired 24Cs less than a month from the wedding date and they were able to work on that tight schedule without any problems. Finally, unfortunately, our catering manager was let go from the company a week before our wedding. But she still felt so personally involved with us that she still contributed to a small bride gift that she and my wedding planner put together for me. And the person who picked up in her place did so without a hitch.

Service-wise, everything was well done and completely professional. Cocktail hour and dinner service were executed in a timely manner, and the servers took good care of our guests. Our wedding was at the private home of a relative, and held outdoors, so 24 Carrots did have the additional challenge of setting up and working in somewhat of a raw space. But they handled it perfectly and without disruption and cleaned up everything when they were finished.

I only deducted one star because there was a miscommunication about the cake. The top tier was supposed to be boxed up for us, like they usually do with wedding cakes. But at the end of the night it was nowhere to be found. This was a bummer for me because I LOVE dessert and specifically I LOVED the cake we picked from Sweet Gems (that's in another review).

If I didn't live out of state, I would hire 24 Carrots again if I had another event.

Best catering company around. The food is amazing!

The food from 24 Carrots was amazing. People are still talking about it almost a year later. We were working with them during a time when they were transitioning coordinators so the communication was sometimes lacking, but everything turned out fine in the end. I would for sure recommend them to anyone.

Holy Cow! 24 Carrots' food is SO GOOD! On top of excellent food, their presentation is very impressive. The staff is polite and courteous, and every detail is given specific attention to. They are an all-around great company, and a joy to work with.

I had the absolute pleasure to work with Heather Smith at 24-Carrots catering, and I must say she was amazing! The couple I worked with could not stop raving about her assistance and creativity during the whole process. She helped with the design and layout of the room, and was very communicative the whole way.

24-Carrots Catering did such a fantastic job on the day of the wedding. Their professional staff was very organized, precise and warm to all of the guests. The food was delicious and it definitely kept the guests on edge for more.

Amazing food. Amazing people. An amazing event for the couple!
