The best food for our wedding!

We used Red Seal Dining for our wedding on November 16th, 2024. From the beginning, Rob was super flexible and accommodating. We gave him our budget and he made what we envisioned, fit! We had an amazing food tasting before and we were sold. The food at the wedding was so good. We relieved so many compliments from our guests that the appetizers were the highlight. We had 116 guests at our wedding and lots of allergies. Our menu was crafted in a way that gluten intolerant guests had no worries. We also had children and the serving sizes and food was well like. I would use Red Seal for any occasion!

Splendid Food and Very Flexible

We booked Red Seal about a year before our wedding and made a major change to venue and guest list a few months before the wedding. Rob was great and worked with us to make the changes needed to accomodate the changes. The staff were wonderful and the food was delicious, receiving great feedback from our guests. I highly recommend!

Fantastic Caterer!

After seeing Rob and his team cater a large wedding we decided go with Red Seal for our smaller backyard wedding. Not only was the food amazing, but Rob is easy to work with and was fantastic at guiding us through the process. They are very competitively priced and we will likely use them for our future events.

Book them!

Rob and team did SUCH a fantastic job with our wedding (and subsequent other events) that we ended up hiring him for so many other life events. My husband's family is VERY picky with food and are never really happy with wedding food... they absolutely RAVED about everything they Red Seal Served. In fact, they STILL talk about it to this day. Please book with Rob and the Red Seal team - they will elevate your party to such a high degree!! Such professionals and amazing to work with. Can't wait for the next event to hire them again!! Love you guys xo

Beyond amazing !

We can't say enough how much we love Rob, and the Red Seal Dining team. We did a cocktail-style reception instead of a sit down dinner, and our guests have been raving about the food! From the beginning, Rob worked with us to curate the most perfect menu that suited our budget and taste buds. I cannot believe the quality and quantity of food we got for the budget we set aside. Rob was extremely responsive through the whole wedding planning process, and was one of our favorite vendors day of - so friendly and welcoming. Thank you so much to the Red Seal Dining team for the absolutely amazing service.

Delicious and Efficient!

We can not say enough good things about Rob and Red Seal Dining. Rob was easy to work with and very accommodating to all of the dietary requests we had. His food was delicious and got rave reviews from our guests. Our venue was not equipped with a full kitchen, but Rob was able to bring his mobile setup and deliver a five star meal regardless. We HIGHLY recommend his meatball sliders with homemade brioche buns! Everything was delicious, thanks again Rob!

1000% YES!

SOOO GOOD!! I can not recommend Red Seal Dining enough! We had a small wedding dinner in our home and they absolutely blew our minds. Working with Rob to decide the menu was easy and efficient, and he provided great ideas. We're kind of picky eaters and after talking to other vendors we figured we'd just pick through what we didn't like in their preset packages; but Rob made it clear from the beginning, he wanted to make food that we'd actually enjoy on our own wedding day and he'd adjust wherever needed. The day of the wedding; Rob and his assistant were on time, brought everything they required, and I dont think they needed to ask us for anything. They answered our guests questions, and chatted in a personal yet non obtrusive way that had everyone loving them. And my kitchen was SPOTLESS when they left, I wouldn't have even known they were there. The food...oh the food! Every. Single. Guest. RAVED about the food! Raved while they were eating, Raved after Rob and crew left. RAVED every time I talked to them weeks later haha. I think we talked more about the food than anything else about the wedding! An absolutely wonderful experience and we're already thinking about how we can adopt Red Seal Dining and Rob into our family for future events!

Food was all the rave

We didn't make it easy for rob and his team with a number of very different menu items. We did a buffet with at least 6 different sendehichea and 6 different appitizers. People loved it. We also had macaroni and cheese which was a huge crowd pleaser.
Rob was very professional and worked in a tough environment with his portable kitchen for our acreage tent wedding. Not a single complaint.
Highly recommend.

Amazing in all areas

Rob and his team were so great to work with every step of the way! Rob was flexible with our menu, and took great care in food preparation for our guests with allergies. Rob consistently had fast response time to our phone calls and emails, and his personality is so welcoming and fun. The tasting was a lovely and relaxed experience, and food portions were very generous. You can tell that Rob is passionate about his work. Our guests absolutely loved the food! The chicken and potato salad were big hits at dinner, and the late night mac and cheese station was perfection. We had dinner served family style, and each dish was plated attractively and served in a timely manner. Rob also provided helpful and accurate information as to how long each part of the dinner service would take, which helped with developing our timeline for the day. I would recommend Red Seal Dining highly for their impeccable services!
