““ Billy Bricks catered our wedding on Saturday May 18, 2024 and we could not have had a better experience! From the moment I contacted them Craig & his team answered every and all questions quickly and put me at ease every step of the way. The day of the wedding they were nothing short of professional! All the food was made on time and it was DELICIOUS! All 160ish of our guests had nothing but great things to say about the food. In fact, it was talked about for the rest of the night! They all kept saying it was the best food they've had at a wedding ever. If you're looking for something fun and unique for any of your events I could not recommend Billy Bricks on Wheels enough!

Wooden Paddle Catering is Chicagoland's go-to for full-service wedding catering that's anything but ordinary. We roll up to your venue with mobile wood-fired brick ovens and cook everything fresh and live — wood-fired pizzas, chef-designed apps, desserts, and craft cocktails your guests will not stop talking about. We handle it all: professional staffing, full bar, rentals, setup, and teardown. Family-style, plated, or stations — you name it, we bring it. With 10+ years and 1,000+ events across Chicagoland, we've been to just about every venue in the suburbs. Serving the greater Chicago area within 50 miles of Lemont. 🔥

“We initially went with Wooden Paddle because of recommendations from multiple venues and friends. Even with some hiccups, I'm glad we chose Wooden Paddle as our catering team. Our tasting was such a fun and great experience that left us soooo full. It was then we realized we may have considered too much food! For the most part, Wooden Paddle was very responsive and very collaborative. Unfortunately, I can't give them 5 stars because while the company was going through some staffing changes, they did not let us know that our catering lead was no longer with the company. That was a frustrating experience, as it meant my emails were going unread and unanswered for weeks. All of that to say, they made it right. Our wedding day was perfect and the team was soooo easy to work with. Our guest can't stop talking about the food, which is always the win.”

We served the Texas beef brisket, pan-seared airline chicken, and wild mushroom rigatoni, and guests are still texting us saying it was the best wedding food they’ve ever had.

Cody’s Belly Bites was born during the COVID-19 pandemic when I converted a van into a mobile kitchen, delivering fresh, homemade meals to frontline workers across Chicago.

Today, we cater weddings, corporate events, and intimate gatherings with heart, excellence, and purpose — always serving food made with love.

“Cody's Belly Bites exceeded every expectation. From inquiry to execution, Chef Cody was professional, organized, and detail-oriented. The communication was fast and great, and the team's work was heartfelt. The food was beautifully presented and absolutely delicious—guests are still talking about the Jerk Chicken Mac & Cheese and espresso buttercream cake! Cody and his team went above and beyond what was on our invoice and threw in a few extra freebies, keeping their word. The team was punctual, polished, and made hosting stress-free.

“Lula catered our wedding and we cannot recommend them enough. The food was incredible, easily one of the most talked-about parts of our day. The dessert table was a particular standout with genuinely unique options; we honestly wish we'd told more guests to make sure they got over to try it. The planning process was just as strong as the event itself. Anna was fantastic to work with quick to respond, flexible, and made us feel like a priority throughout. The tasting was one of our favorite parts of the whole planning process. Only minor note: service on the day was a bit slower than expected, which pushed our timeline slightly. It didn't take away from the overall experience at all the quality and care more than made up for it. We'd book Lula again without hesitation and recommend them to any couple looking for food their guests will actually remember!”

“Elegante Cuisine is one of the higher end catering companies in the area, so this was a splurge for us, but one that we do not regret. Good food and good music are two of the biggest factors in the guest experience, so it was worth it to us. Our tasting was awesome; their menu options are extensive but all the dishes seemed to be executed perfectly. They had catered at our venue many times, and seemed highly competent. During and since the wedding, many of our friends and family have raved to us that it was the best food they’ve had at a wedding. Our entrees were the chicken asiago and the stuffed peppers (sooo good!). On the wedding day, Elegante staff took great care of us, even making sure we had hot, full plates and an assortment of our cocktail hour hors d'oeuvres ready when we entered the reception space. We worked with Trisha, who at times did not respond very effectively or efficiently to our questions/concerns/requests, but overall we are very happy with the services we received and us and all the guests were certainly well fed.”
