CaterMarin did a wonderful job helping me plan, and taking care of every detail on the day of, a very large Celebration of Life. Terry helped me choose delicious and appropriate selections, from their many interesting and varied options, for an appetizer based buffet. Jeanette helped organize the room layout and made sure the day went according to plan. Both were helpful, kind and took all the worry and effort from my shoulders. The staff kept the food and beverages easily and continually available and I heard many compliments on the great tasting assortment and lovely presentation. I am very happy I chose CaterMarin and highly recommend them. read more

Absolutely exceptional caterers in all aspects. We had our wedding in May 2025 at the Outdoor Art Club in Mill Valley. We had one tasting with Terry and Chef Nick. They were so personable and kind. They were open to feedback and to expanding their menu based on our requests. We scheduled a 2nd tasting and got sick so we couldn't make it in person, but instead they packaged all of the food for us to do a tasting at home. When it came to the wedding they exceeded our expectations. The food was incredible and their servers were so professional and treated every one of our guests like they were special. Their effort and the quality of their work made our wedding such a special event. We consider ourselves lucky that they were available to cater our wedding and are 1000% happy with our decision to choose them. read more

From our very first conversations about what our wedding would be like, we knew that food would be an integral part of our big day. Throughout our relationship, there were so many important moments that were tied food, whether it was going out to special meals, cooking together, or sharing a meal with our favorite people. We wanted to try and capture as much of that spirit as possible when picking meals for the day. When we first reached out to Terry, we had a most of an outline of ideas for the big day and were so grateful that she was incredibly receptive to our ideas. She assured us that she not only very familiar with our venue, her chef Nick had extensive experience working with a range of dietary restrictions. Most importantly, she said that it wouldn't be an issue for us to share recipes with them to create something that matched our vision. Tasting Nick's interpretation of these recipes, we knew we were in good hands. Everything tasted as good (or better!) than we remembered and it felt like they honored our recipes and our vision. They did such a wonderful job helping us shape our incredibly long menu into something that flowed through the day and worked with the quirks of our venue. It meant so much to us that they put as much thought and care into our menu as we did. And we absolutely ate some leftover cookies in our room after the wedding as we talked about how happy we were with how everything turned out. read more

Great to plan with. Innovative and creative. Very helpful with all aspects of a wedding.

We used Cater Marin for a women's health event last weekend and they were fantastic. The food was delicious and everyone loved that is was so fresh, creative and gluten-free. All of the logistics were easily planned out with Terry, which made my life easier given all of the other moving parts for this event. I highly recommend and will use them again! read more

Cannot say enough good things about Terry and the CaterMarin team! They catered our wedding in Sausalito in September and the food was just incredible, as was the staff. Jeannette managed the on-site team. They were even able to toke care of my mother who has major food allergies. It was a huge relief knowing my mother was taken care of on my wedding day, and that the food for our special day was exceptional. read more

Terry, Chef Nick, and the entire CaterMarin team did a fantastic job at our June wedding in Mill Valley. From our first phone call with Terry, we knew we were in good hands. Her years of experience were obvious, and she guided us through the planning and preparation process with honesty, transparency, professionalism, and some great suggestions. Her familiarity with our venue, the Outdoor Art Club, also helped save time. Everyone we talked to kept raving about the food. It was delicious! Terry and Chef Nick provided us with a long list of menu options, but they also took some of our own suggestions and created some yummy dishes. Terry's attention and care for special requests was much appreciated, especially when dealing with severe allergies and/or dietary restrictions. We highly recommend for anyone in need of catering. read more

Now I see why everyone raves about Terry and her team. We hired them to cater a big house party a few weeks ago and could not be happier with them. Her crew is professional, experienced and personable. I think every single guest commented on how amazing the food was too - everything was delicious and well-executed. We could not have pulled it off without Terry's guidance and expertise. Thank you for taking great care of us! read more

Terry and Chef Nick of CaterMarin were warm and very organized. We knew we were in good hands from the moment we met them for the tasting. They put together a delicious menu based on our requests, handled rental logistics for us, and worked really well with our wedding coordinator to ensure everything went smoothly on the day. Chef Nick has lots of experience working with any dietary restrictions, and he and Terry did a terrific job with everything. We got tons of compliments on the food from guests and even had time to eat it ourselves. We highly recommend you set up a tasting with CaterMarin--you likely won't need to look any further. Thank you Terry and Nick! read more

We used Catermarin for a memorial service and they were fantastic! Delicious food, beautiful presentation, great servers. They were very easy to work with, thought of everything and made use feel well taken care of at a very stressful time. I highly recommend them! Robin Mullin read more

If I could give Terry and Cater Marin 10 STARS I would ! Seriously- She made our entire wedding process a breeze- truth be told we wanted to elope, but are so glad we didn't ...working with Her and her staff was such a wonderful experience. No wonder why she's got perfect rating on Yelp which is not heard of. The food was delicious, and we had some dietary restrictions (I'm gluten free ) . My fiancé and I met Terry at her location to go over menu and time line etc. - she had snacks waiting for us - so sweet and even Gluten free crackers for me - nice touch . Love working with her and you can tell she's a industry veteran and loves her company- it's all done with extra attention to detail. Thank you so much Cater Marin and staff! Hire Them, if you want an amazing experience and your guests to rave about their meals . My flower girl who eats quality foods for an 8 yr old - kept asking for more spring rolls - she went into the kitchen looking for more and asked her mom to get the recipe - it was hilarious. They were that good!! Got a few meals boxes up for us after the wedding which was a nice surprise! We will recommend Cater Marin and Terry to anyone looking for a special event or wedding caterer . Give her a call - she actually will answer and respond. read more

CaterMarin Catering - A pic my guest took because it was that beautiful and yummy . Tri Tip entree . - Caterers Near Me - San Rafael, California

CaterMarin is a wonderful caterer! Although we had a small-ish wedding (under 70 people), we had complex dietary requirements (for me, gluten/dairy issues), several vegans, soy issues, and seemingly about 10 other allergies distributed across guests (including many kinds of fruit). I know this made things pretty challenging for CaterMarin to track but they were so careful and willing to work with us on everything. The vegans had tons of options, CaterMarin carefully shared a list of all the dishes containing any allergens, and we didn't hear of a single guest having an issue -- which was amazing. They whipped up an Asian-inspired entirely gluten/dairy-free menu for us (Including a modified hoisin chicken entree that our guests loved)! My favorite things were the latkes with salmon or applesauce, the spring rolls, the chicken, the lentils, and the root vegetables mix :) Several guests remarked that the food was excellent and that they wouldn't say that about every wedding. CaterMarin pitched a menu to us, but were very open to the kind of menu we wanted. We didn't have super specific ideas, so we ended up picking and choosing our favorite-sounding dishes they'd done from about 15 of their sample menus and came up with a semi-Asian-fusion theme, and discussed which things could be made gluten and dairy-free. We did a tasting just to make sure, and didn't end up changing anything :) The service was also above and beyond. They brought special advance meals to a few people who couldn't make it to the buffet (like the bride and groom and the groom's parents), they offered everyone cocktail refills at their table, they made sure certain people got special refrigerated desserts based on their allergies/diets (which I'd purchased separately), they did things we didn't even think of like cut up our special gluten-free/dairy-free/soy-free brownies (from Crumble & Whisk) to make them last longer and serve off-menu cocktails on request (along with the usual good service like offering lemonade and champagne, making up the tables, bringing out the cake at the appropriate time - which needed to be refrigerated). Terry also partners with a linen, glassware and silverware company that has great-looking rentals (Heirloom). Their website wasn't super up-to-date but that wasn't Terry's fault. After a little back and forth, they came through with some really nice colors that matched our garden setting beautifully. Everything went incredibly smoothly and Terry was a delight to work with, and so sweet and caring (and chef Nick's recipes and cooking were splendid). In the time leading up to the event, Terry also advised us on what we needed to act on right away versus what we could take our time with. She's definitely a veteran of the industry. We only heard good things about CaterMarin from our guests. Terry recommended an alcohol vendor as well who looked very helpful, though we eventually went more of the DIY/discount route with BevMo. She also recommended us our great event coordinator, Leslie at Dandelion Events, and the two worked beautifully together to set up and break down tables/chairs and all the many management tasks of an event. At the end of the night they boxed up two meals for us :) So delicious! We savored them for the next two days. Would highly recommend CaterMarin for your next event! read more

Cater Marin is fantastic!! Terry, Nick, and the whole team were great to work with, made amazing food, and really went the extra mile to help me pull my whole event together. They were professional and warm, I would ask them to cater another event in a flash! read more

Cater Marin provided the food at our son's engagement party and did a wonderful job. The food was delicious! We hired a staff person through them and she was excellent. She plated and served the food, kept tidying up throughout the event, replenished whenever needed and we hardly knew she was there. I would hire them again in a heartbeat! read more

I had the pleasure of working with Terry, Jeanette, Chef Nick and the Cater Marin team for my wedding on October 8. Terry was my main point of contact and she was wonderful. The planning process was smooth and enjoyable. Terry was very responsive, helpful, honest, and knowledgable as an expert in her craft. I really appreciated her flexibility and patience with all my questions and changes. I have to call out how accommodating they were for making special meals for specific allergies and dietary restrictions. They took extra time and care for one specific person who had a lot of allergies which I very much appreciated. Now, onto the food. Not only was it delicious, but it was plated and served beautifully. For appetizers, I very much recommend the spring rolls, wild mushroom strudel and the pork belly bao buns. The curried butternut squash as our starter was an absolute hit and so delicious. The Tri tip and miso salmon with the potato gratin and vegetable sauce were wonderful. All of our loved ones with allergies and dietary restrictions loved their meals as well. All in all, the food exceeded our expectations. Sometimes food is not as good as it was at a tasting, but I can safely say that the food was just as high quality as it was at the tasting, if not better. The service was also phenomenal. There were tons of staff and everyone was super friendly. It was very evident how much experience Terry and the Cater Marin team have based on how flawless everything went at my wedding. I cannot thank Terry and the entire team enough for their partnership and the love, care and attention they put into my wedding. It did not go unnoticed and it is very much appreciated. All in all, I highly recommend Cater Marin! Delicious food, excellent staff, competitive prices! read more

Terry worked with us on our wedding and we were so glad we chose CaterMarin. All of our guests loved the food and the staff were all incredibly friendly and personable. Highly recommend!! read more

Highest rating for Terri and her staff. They catered a Celebration of Life for us. Needless to say, the family were all emotionally in shock, but everyone working with us was super supportive and kind. The food was delicious and plentiful. We heard lots of compliments from all who attended. Trust CaterMarin to handle everything smoothly for you. read more

Terry and her staff at Cater Marin did an amazing job at my wife's surprise birthday party. I have never planned an event and had no idea what I was doing. Terry sent me a long menu to choose from but I was clueless so she asked me a few questions about what kinds of food we like and then crated a menu for me that turned out to be a well balanced hit with everyone Cater Marin server staff also picked up on my novice status and they took over organizing the food, cake and coffee placement and made table notifications that helped make the queuing up for food super smooth. The chef and assistant prepared a wonderful dinner. Their efforts took a lot of stress off my shoulders. I highly recommend Cater Marin staff and food. I told my wife I'm retiring while on top but if I were to plan another event, I would definitely call Cater Marin again! Thank you Cater Marin. You helped me throw a great party! read more

We chose CaterMarin for our 130 person wedding at Marin Art & Garden. Hands down, the best decision we could have made. From the very first call we had with Terry, it was clear she had a TON of experience working in the industry. But while she was full of sound advice and knowledge, she also listened attentively to our own needs and constantly made us feel heard. Whether it was planning appetizers, deciding on glassware, or discussing food allergies, Terry never missed a beat. Most importantly of all, the execution on our wedding day was truly beyond what we could have asked for. It is impossible to put into words how impressed we were with CaterMarin's service. They were extremely well-staffed, professional, and genuinely kind people who seemed happy to be there. They were always making sure people had what they needed, whether that be a refill of wine or another appetizer. And of course, the food. Chef Nick took our poorly-worded, somewhat vague food desires and somehow made them into an actual dream. Everything from the unforgettable mushroom couscous to the mouth-watering tri-tip, we were constantly left impressed. Thankfully, it was not just us who left impressed. As we had countless guests that went out of their way to tell us how great the food, service, and experience was with CaterMarin. Which for us, was all we could have asked for. We really cannot thank CaterMarin enough for everything they did to make our wedding day absolute perfection. Thank you thank you! read more

We loved working with Terry/Cater Marin for our wedding. She was so flexible, honest, and helpful with planning a covid wedding when restrictions were constantly changing. She really made our venue and timeline perfect. We were not organized at all and she came in, had great suggestions and just really did a great job with organizing the event and taking the stress away from us. This is all before the food! The food was of course great too and reasonably priced. Her staff was also excellent during the actual wedding. All of our guests complimented the staff, flow of the party, food, and transitions. You can't go wrong if you choose Terry for whatever event you have going on! read more

A big thanks to Terry, Chef Nick and the team! They catered our wedding 2 weeks ago for our 3 course dinner. We got a lot compliments from our guests, especially for the salmon - went to Opa! in Palo Alto a few days after wedding and everyone agrees Terry's salmon is way better. Wanted to add that Terry is way beyond a caterer. We didn't have a planner so an experienced caterer is really important. One week before wedding, we asked her to have ceremony and dinner at the same venue. She basically used only one hour to change the venue set up. She is on top of everything and is easy to work with, perfect for people who have limited time. Will definitely highly recommend CaterMarin for your events! read more

Terry and CaterMarin did a fantastic job with our wedding at the Marin Art and Garden Center! Our venue had a set list of caterers we were required to choose from, and while we shopped around at all of the caterer options presented to us, CaterMarin offered us the best combination of competitive pricing, timely communication (we have come to appreciate this HIGHLY in retrospect), and impressive attention to detail and timing specifically catered to our venue. While some caterers had a more noteworthy "wow" factor when we were doing tastings, we left the tasting at CaterMarin not only having been impressed by the food, but also with the attention they were giving to our event. We could tell that they cared about making our event enjoyable and stress free. They delivered that on the wedding day. They had glasses of champagne and some appetizers waiting for us after the ceremony. Terry was the one to serve us our dinner plates herself, and she was great about checking in with us to make sure that everything was running smoothly. So nice to know in case something doesn't seem quite right! With regards to presentation, we were at a sweetheart table where we were served plates with both entrees--tritip with chimichurri and grilled salmon, both delicious--so we didn't get to see how the dinner buffet was presented to guests, but now that we have gotten all our photos back, we are even more pleased to see the presentation! CaterMarin initially advised us against using kegs, recommending bottles instead. We insisted on using kegs, and though CaterMarin was not particularly supportive of this, it did not ultimately cause any problems on the day of the wedding. In fact, many of our guests were impressed with how smoothly the bar service ran. Many of our guests have commented on how great the food was at our wedding, including some family members in the restaurant/fine-dining industry (which we took as a very high compliment!). The food was delicious and Terry was wonderful to work with. An easy recommendation! read more

Just had an excellent experience with Terry @CaterMarin who did our daughter's wedding August 1. After the pandemic restrictions were lifted June 15, Terry was on the job! Food was plentiful and delicious, and they were so flexible and accommodating, for example, doing separate vegan dinners for 2 of the 125 guests. Terry is a force when it comes to organizing and pulling all the pieces together. I felt I could just relax and leave it up to her! read more

I have nothing but good things to say about Terry. We booked CaterMarin for our October 2020 wedding and unfortunely, needed to postpone and now cancel due to COVID. Throughout the entire process, Terry was flexible, understanding, positive, and kind. We felt an immediate connection the first time we met and knew that we would be in wonderful hands with her services. I HIGHLY recommend CaterMarin for your next event! read more

We made the right choice when we chose CaterMarin for our daughter's wedding reception. In every way, CaterMarin exceeded our expectations. From their help in developing the menu, to preparation and service, everything was outstanding. We truly appreciated the owner, Terry Eberle's teamwork and coordination with our wedding planner and the florist. Our only surprise was that there were no surprises, giving us the time to truly enjoy the event! read more

Terry and her team did a fabulous job catering our wedding. They paid attention to every detail, served delicious food, and went above and beyond to make sure our big day was perfect. They were very attentive to a number of dietary restrictions amongst our guests, were happy to work with us to craft a delicious menu, and Terry even provided some recommendations of other vendors when we were sorting a few details last minute. Many of our guests commented on how amazing the food was and we couldn't agree more. Highly recommend Cater Marin for any catering needs! read more

I came to CaterMarin with a very difficult challenge: a gluten free afternoon tea reception on a budget. While most caterers I emailed immediately responded saying they could not accommodate my needs, Cindy jumped at the chance to think creatively about gluten free food options for a tea, in which you would normally serve scones, mini sandwiches, and all sorts of wheaty products. At the tasting, we were thrilled with what Cindy and the chefs had come up with: mini shepherds pie, asparagus wrapped in prosciutto, chocolate dipped strawberries and tasty orange cranberry gluten free scones! Because most of my guests can eat gluten, we also had very yummy (so I hear) tea sandwiches and mini eclairs, among other things. Cindy was so wonderful to work with throughout the process. She was warm and friendly and open to trying new things, not stuck in a cookie cutter wedding mindset like a lot of caterers are. During the actual wedding, the service was discreet and polite, and the food was beautiful and delicious! Cindy truly understood the vision we had for the wedding and turned it into reality. read more

Four days post wedding and we're STILL getting compliments on the food, which we had family style Californian. From the fresh greens and beets salad, the honey roasted chicken, salmon, butternut soup squash (to DIE for-- tastes like it has cream, but does not!) and mashed potatoes-and-parsnips, our guests and we devoured the food. Being vegetarian, Terry also specifically prepared sauteed vegetables and beet-tinted quinoa for me since I couldn't partake in the main courses: nutritious, tasty, well-seasoned, and perfect fuel for my wedding. My (hard to please) Chinese parents and many other guests also couldn't stop raving about the excellent service, and the fantastic appetizers (crab cakes!! yum). This is monumental since the food was American, and they are Chinese...! Everyone we've talked to during and afterwards said that the food and service were easily the best they'd experienced at any wedding. Also, the service! The attentive waitstaff was always one step of my husband and I, making sure that we were well taking care of. Thanks to their foresight, we were able to eat on our wedding day" Every time we had a chance, someone was there armed with bites to eat, a drink, or just making sure we were okay. And at the end of the night, we got take-home boxes for extra fuel. Best option ever in Marin county. Would totally use them again! read more

I truly cannot say enough about Terry & her team. My husband and I used them for our wedding catering. First of all, she's an absolute joy to work with. If you know exactly what you want, she makes it happen. If you have no idea what you're doing (which was me,) she is there to make suggestions & offer extremely efficient guidance. Her chef's food is fantastic & very well priced. They have endless menus and will make anything your heart desires! Her team is incredibly efficient, kind, and genuine. They truly went above and beyond to make our wedding a seamless event & to make our vision come to life!! CaterMarin is more than a catering company - they're a whole production squad! I cannot recommend CaterMarin enough for any event! 100000/10! read more

Terry is outstanding! She and her staff completely exceeded expectations! We had our wedding at Deer Park Villa in Fairfax, and Terry polished all the details to make it come together beautifully. The tasting experience is fun (it was our only tasting experience) and showed the skills of Chef Nick. We were confident in the food, but asked them to make plated meals different from those we tasted (and different from those proposed to us). Instead of salmon, we asked for halibut (a crowd favorite), instead of steak, we asked for brisket (also good), instead of potatoes, we asked for polenta (really nice), and instead of pasta, we asked for a stack of roasted veggies (vegetarians loved it). Terry was supportive throughout our special requests. We met in person with Terry one time after our tasting to go through the details, and I think we talked over the phone twice. She managed the table, linen, and dining rentals, the layout, and helped us include small (and important) details in our timeline. She was also very flexible as our guest list changed in the final weeks. On the day of, she checked in with us during set-up, provided name card holders, prepared the table settings, and communicated with our food truck. Not to mention served up an incredible meal! Small things like putting a few appetizers and 2 glasses of wine in our bride/groom room (where we escaped based on Terry's recommendation after the ceremony), and providing two full meals for us to take home (which we enjoyed the next day since we are not one of those couples that was too busy to eat at our own wedding) were special touches that really meant a lot to us. Terry did much more than I expected from a caterer, but it was everything we needed for our simple but planner-less wedding. Her expertise, experience, and awesome attitude will get you through any hiccup (and the hiccups that she doesn't even tell you about). I cannot recommend her enough! read more

CaterMarin blew my family and me away. Incredibly professional, on top of it and the food was outstanding . My mother's funeral went without a hitch which is what we needed during this difficult time . Terry and her staff were also professional setting up and breaking down. Not one issue. I will use CaterMarin for all my future catering needs read more

Cater Marin delivered an amazing meal and experience for our October 2021 wedding. We connected with Terry in early 2020 and as you can imagine kept the conversation going (thanks COVID) until we were able to actually have our wedding in 2021. Throughout the process Terry's expertise in this industry was far above caters we spoke to. We knew her team would be able to navigate the nuances of our wedding venue and delivered above and beyond our expectations. Chef Nick was equally great to work with helping us to craft the perfect menu that was delicious. Our guests shared that this was the best food they had ever had at a wedding and many appreciated the family style service. What we love is that we were able to select a menu that accommodated dietary restrictions without compromising on the taste. The staff ensured all our guests were taken care of while helping us keep to our timeline as much as possible. In addition, Terry's referrals were equally valuable as they were all pro's and were able to provide great expertise and service. I would absolutely work with Cater Marin in the future and would highly recommend to anyone considering. read more

Have no hesitation about leaving a five star review for Terry and her team. They catered a backyard birthday party for 25 and people could not be more delighted with the food from Cater Marin. I'm not someone who has catered many events, and working with Terry was a breeze in terms of menu development (appetizers, main courses and sides). Team showed up on time with beautifully plattered food. Communication through the whole process was very smooth and timely. Thanks so much Terry for your service and contribution that made this a special day! read more

We looked up Cater Marin since it was on the preferred vendors list for our venue, Deer Park Villa. Terry was awesome from the moment we spoke to her to even after the event. She was always very responsive and helpful with any request... even when my fiancé and I completely changed our menu about 2 months before the wedding! I would highly recommend Cater Marin to any of our friends because the food tasted awesome and was all excellent quality. Terry was willing to go out of her normal box for us with the menu and it turned out amazing! She helped us along the way with general wedding questions and always seemed to be able to understand exactly what we were trying to accomplish. Thanks for making our wedding a huge success Terry! read more

We hired Cater Marin on a whim for our small-ish (under 50 people) backyard wedding reception after walking by their storefront one day. And it was the best decision we could've made! Terry and her team are obviously an experienced crew, and very easy and friendly to work with. Terry made a lot of great suggestions during her site visit, and was super flexible with the menu planning. We did not even have a fully-functioning kitchen for them to cook in, but they made it work--and we got so many compliments on the food! People raved about it for days afterwards. I'm still craving the farro salad and would hire them again in a heartbeat. read more

Cater Marin catered my wedding at deer park villa in September 2018 and did an amazing job. From the moment we met Terry at our tasting her and her chef paid excellent attention to detail and were a pleasure to work with. We were very impressed with the food at the tasting and knew right away we had found our caterer. Terry was very responsive in the weeks leading up to the wedding and helped with many of the details. At the wedding everything went smoothly with the catering. The staff was all courteous and professional. The food was amazing. Everyone had good things to say about the salmon, the chicken, and the vegetarian lasagna was very popular also. Terry was also very hands on at the event and involved with the catering team, including serving our guests. My bride and I had time to eat our food, and also the wait staff kept our drink glasses full for us. Cater Marin packaged up some meals for us to take home from the wedding which was a very nice touch. Would highly recommend caterMarin! read more

I recently had a work anniversary party for 70 people at an outdoor garden and Cater Marin provided the food and help for the party. Everyone enjoyed the food and commented for days afterwards how wonderful it was. Terry was absolutely wonderful to work with and she provided help that was indispensable. I would highly recommend her and will definitely use her again. read more

Wonderful, wonderful, wonderful. My wife and I cannot endorse Terry and CaterMarin enough. To begin, Terry was the first out of several potential caterers to respond to our inquiry for our wedding - and she was the only one to respond regularly after that! That immediately boded well for us, and we happily attended the arranged tasting. We were blown away by the quality of the food and the warm reception we received. It was clear that Terry had put a lot of heart and love into her work, and that showed. As we tried delicious chicken, asparagus, and potato souffles, we knew that CaterMarin was perfect for our special day. We were even more impressed by Terry's constant contact with us as we lobbed question after question at her regarding costs, the menu, technicalities, and set-up. If not for Terry, we may have forgotten a lot of essentials for the reception! CaterMarin didn't just provide the food during our reception at the Marin Art and Garden Center: They also provided amazing service, table set-up, a personal touch and interaction with the guests, and yes, I admit, a much needed talking to when I personally started freaking out about potential rain. Terry knows how to handle a stressed out bridegroom! CaterMarin is everything you need for a caterer. The food was terrific, the service was impeccable, and the emotional and technical support is, in my opinion, unrivaled. If you want a superb addition to your wedding, e-mail Terry - you won't regret it! read more

This review is long overdue. Terry was an absolute dream to work with!! From start to finish she made planning a breeze. I cannot recommend her enough. We had Terry and her team cater both our rehearsal dinner and wedding - after working with her on our wedding and trying to narrow in on what we wanted for our rehearsal, it became abundantly clear we NEEDED her for both events. She was thoughtful with every detail from start to finish. From creating a cohesive menu, to renting linens and utensils, to assisting with timelines, she made this about as easy as wedding planning can be. (Even when I was a little crazy sending multiple emails a day!) I was nervous about day of coordination and while I was confident Terry could handle it on her own, I didn't want to have to worry about the other vendors we were using - Terry recommended Maayan Cohen from My Eventology who we ended up working with as well. It is clear what a tremendous working relationship these two have. (I would recommend both without any hesitation to any couples getting married or even planning a big event in the near future!) We have had a ton of compliments on the food for both events and continue to receive them - and we didn't do a tasting for either!! I would be happy to speak to any potential clients if you have an ounce of reservation! There is no doubt in my mind you won't find a better caterer in the area. read more

For our wedding in Sept 2013, we had many good caterers to choose from. We went to more than 10 tastings. It was easy to choose Cater Marin from the bunch! Their food is spectacular. We wanted a clean/healthy mostly vegetarian menu, and Terry was able to suggest many dishes that fit our preferences. The food was incredible, and many guests commented on the extraordinary quality of the meal and how much they enjoyed it. Most of all though, Terry provides a greater service to you as a bride: she helps you understand the workflow of the day, she basically acts as a helpful coordinator and advisor regarding what will flow best. She is so flexible: she will stand back if you know everything you want and go with the flow or she will help you make decisions if you aren't sure (as I wasn't always). She helped me pick my colors for the linens and was amazingly helpful on the day of, making sure everything went smoothly according to plan. Highly, highly recommend! read more
