We used Hearty Boys for our June wedding and it was perfection. Food was the most important thing to me for our wedding because 1. I love food and 2. Wedding meals can be memorable. Our guests still talk about how delicious our food was and that’s all I wanted! They are incredibly communicative and we worked with Alyson who is a true joy. Our tasting was a blast and they are willing to work with you and get creative if they don’t have something on the menu, they’ll add it!! and Alyson made me feel totally at easy during our final walk through which was also key! We did a plated dinner and then their s’mores station and it was a blast! 10/10 recommend !!

Hearty Boys took on a challenge and Chef Dan executed it so well. We hired them for our Arab American Wedding, and we wanted Middle Eastern inspired dishes and it is known that our cuisine isn't easy to make (even other Arab restaurants don't execute dishes well) and I can confidently say that Chef Dan & Angie did an AMAZING job. Arabs are big on food, and every single guest couldn't believe that we hired an American-based caterer for our wedding and how amazing the food was. Chef Dan & Angie, thank you so much for working with us and even with little hiccups, you both executed our vision so well. It was one of the most talked about things from our wedding on how amazing the food was. Thank you Chef Dan, Angie, and Hearty Boys!

Hearty Boys Catering was a true standout β€” from our very first contact to the last bite of dessert. The food was incredible, the service on the night-of was flawless, and the experience as a whole felt elevated, thoughtful, and deeply personal. They worked with us to honor our budget without compromising on quality, and every interaction felt collaborative and respectful. A huge part of that magic was thanks to Alyson, who was an absolute gem throughout the entire process. From our very first meeting, she wowed us with her attention to detail and thoughtfulness β€” even incorporating elements from our proposal (like the exact champagne and glassware we used!) into our tasting. She helped us set realistic expectations, mapped out the flow of the day, and offered guidance that made planning feel calm and supported. On the day itself, Alyson was the last person I saw before walking down the aisle β€” and she made sure I looked perfect. That single moment captures so much of who she is: attentive, composed, and totally invested in making your day feel magical. The Hearty Boys team, and especially Alyson, went far beyond their roles to make sure our wedding was not only beautiful but meaningful. We couldn’t recommend them more.

We chose Hearty Boys to cater our wedding and they did absolutely amazing. We couldn't have done it without Alyson, Derek and their coordinated team. They were on top of everything! And above all, the food was absolutely amazing. Everyone had a compliment for everything we had. Unique and delicious. Chef is superb. They really took the time to listen and they payed attention to detail which was very important to me. The Hearty Boys team will make your special day smooth and a day to truly remember. πŸ‘Œ

Hearty Boys was the BEST for our October 2025 wedding! Alyson and team were a joy to interact with. We left every tasting and conversation absolutely giddy and ready for the big day. Alyson was warm and knowledgable, which made crafting our ideal family-style menu easy and achievable. Everyone hit the dance floor feeling full and ready to party! Thank you to Hearty Boys!
