Reviews for Kathy G & Company
GUEST
Best food I've ever eaten at a wedding. Super easy to work with - probably the best caterer in Birmingham, Alabama.
GUEST
TERRIBLE! Unresponsive to the point that I was scared he wouldn't even show up on my wedding day. Does not listen to a single word you say about what you want. Actually, it almost seems that he DOES listen, but only so that he can figure out how to do the EXACT OPPOSITE! PLEASE, PLEASE, PLEASE USE *ANYONE* ELSE FOR A FLORIST!!!!!
I tried relentlessly to get the florist to call me back so that I could sign the contract and pay the deposit. I finally gave into my wedding coordinator's advice and just mailed the deposit and waited to get the contract at a later time. The WEEK OF the wedding, he FINALLY sent the contract.
At our initial meeting, I looked through the albums of his work and showed him the backdrop/altar decorations I liked. I pointed to one picture and said, "This is EXACTLY what I want. EXACTLY. I wouldn't change a single thing!" When I got to my venue, it was not even remotely close. I had told him that I absolutely did NOT under ANY circumstances want an arch!!!!! It was an arch. I told him I wanted the pretty pinks and yellows and peaches of the flowers in the picture. I got empty branches and dead flowers. I'm not kidding - dead, dried flowers!! I told him I absolutely did NOT want a white background b/c my dress would blend in and b/c I don't like white. My backdrop was plain white fabric!
Now, the bouquet was GORGEOUS! HOWEVER, I pointed out to him at our meeting that I'm very petite and my dress is huge, so I wanted a smaller bouquet - nothing that would overwhelm my small frame and take away from my big, poofy (and incredibly expensive) dress. I wound up with a TEN POUND bouquet that was nearly TWO FEET IN DIAMETER! I asked for darker colors in my bridesmaids' bouquets. What I got was almost completely white bridesmaids bouquets. AND TO TOP IT OFF, HE FORGOT TO EVEN MAKE A TOSSING BOUQUET FOR ME, which was in my contract!!!

Kathy G. and staff provided excellent food and service for our reception! The food was so beautifully displayed, and everyone raved over it....I just wish I would have been able to sample everything!

Kathy G catered my rehearsal dinner at the Gardens Cafe at the Birmingham Botanical Gardens. Kathy G is the exclusive caterer/florist for the Gardens Cafe. The setting is completely private and a beautiful 2 story dining room. We had a food tasting and Natalie Pilato was very responsive to our feedback on how to "kick up the spice" on the food. Many people commented how delicious the food was and how beautiful the decor was. The staff service was great too! I highly recommend Kathy G!
GUEST
Katie and her team from Kathy G. & Company did an amazing job! Thanks everyone so much. Everyone thought the food was delicious, the displays (especially the Tuscan Bar and grass flats with lolis) were beautiful, and the staff was really organized.
Andy did our flowers and we were blown away! Again, thanks everyone!

I used Kathy G & Company for my catering, floral (KG Designs), and reception venue (Park Lane). This made it really easy, and they also provided wonderful service. My unconventionally timed 11am wedding was no problem for Mary at Park Lane. She suggested an appropriate lunch time menu that had my guests raving about the food. Andy at KG Designs also helped me find a way to make my money go further with my floral decisions. Finally, the Park Lane venue is so beautiful--it really is a great space for day or night. Kathy G made my wedding day as beautiful and hassle-free as possible--which is exactly what I wanted!
