Michaelis Events catered my daughter’s wedding and the food was very good! The red pepper cream sauce got many compliments from guests. The staff were polite, professional, and the bar staff were very personable and fun. We booked the wedding over a year and a half ago. Overall, the day was incredible! Thanks for making it great Michaelis!!

I highly recommend using Michaelis Events! Lauren kept in contact with us the whole time and ended up giving us a credit to use. We used them for two catering events, the food was incredible and our guests loved it (especially the mini cheesecake bites)! She was responsive and SO helpful and even sent us food using the remaining deposit money so none of it went to waste.

The team at Michaelis was a pleasure to work with! They were quick to communicate and accomplished exactly what we had in mind. Would definitely work with them in the future!

Lauren and her team were great! Their food was fresh and delicious for our business dinner! They were able to make a quick change for us while on-site to speedup and serve faster than the agreed upon timeline. They were fantastic to work with.

I recently coordinated an event for active duty military in the Louisville metro area. Michaelis Catering had exceptionally professional staff and I received numerous compliments on the quality of the food. Anyone should strongly consider them for their next event!
- , Client
Michaelis Events and Catering made our wedding dreams come true! Lauren didn’t batt an eye at some of our less conventional requests (tequila pickle shots anyone?). Her team was effective yet unobtrusive from set up to tear down. I can’t imagine what the day would have been like without her day of coordinating! All around a lovely experience and I would work with them again and again.
