"One of our main requirements was to find a catering company that would not only deliver and set up the food but also provide chafing dishes, refill items as needed, and handle cleanup. Mahidhar worked diligently with us to create a package that included service staff for our wedding, collaborating seamlessly with our wedding planner and their team. In the lead-up to the big day, he assisted us in labeling dishes to indicate vegan options and allergens.
We also wanted our guests to experience a Thali-style wedding lunch, and Mahidhar helped us source rentals for over 150 Thali plates—which was a significant accomplishment after our extensive research. Additionally, he personally visited our wedding venue and coordinated with the venue manager to address all the important logistics ahead of time.
On the wedding day, Mayuri and their staff truly exceeded our expectations. After the ceremony, we entered to find the food and drinks beautifully set up, each item clearly labeled and the steel Thali plates arranged exactly as we had discussed. Our guests absolutely loved the food, which exemplified the authentic South Indian cuisine we had envisioned. After the lunch, everything was cleaned up, and the buffet setup was transformed for the evening reception dinner.
For the cocktail hour, which was held outdoors, the appetizers were exquisite and perfectly arranged. The evening dinner featured North Indian/Indo-Chinese dishes, and once again, the food was outstanding. At the end of the night, takeout boxes were made available for our guests and for us to take home leftovers. The kitchen and buffet area were cleaned to the venue's standards, leaving everything in order.
We are thoroughly impressed and wholeheartedly recommend Mayuri for catering services. Many venues in the Seattle area lack Indian catering options and do not provide service staff unless they cater themselves. Mayuri made our wedding day stress-free and fulfilled all our expectations!"
