Mezzanine was our favorite vendor for our 5/22/21 wedding! As serious foodies, the food on our…read morewedding day was very important to us. Victoria is amazing to work with, and you can tell she loves her job and will do anything to make sure her couples' special day is perfect. Mezzanine has an expansive menu of handcrafted delectable options. We wanted a taco bar for dinner from day one, and Mezzanine offered an elevated taco bar that was wedding appropriate, and allowed us to make customizations along the way. Booking almost 2 years in advance, we also knew their traditional menu options were perfect if we changed our minds for a plated dinner. Their pricing is also very fair and allowed us to stay within our budget while also having an impressive spread. They are flexible and easy to work with and when COVID downsized our venue and list to the backyard, they didn't miss a beat. On the day of, the appetizers and taco bar were all delicious and the guests all raved about the food! The bartender service was great and kept drinks going all night. Their staff was friendly and service was top notch - they brought our wedding food dreams to life! I highly recommend Mezzanine to anyone who is looking for catering (and if I ever have an event in the future, I'm calling them). Stop searching, Mezzanine has it all, and will take such good care of you!

Their luncheon sandwiches were delicious and unique. Would recommend them and use them again!read more

Booking the Red Barn at Outlook Farm for our July 2022 wedding was hands down the easiest decision…read moreto make and most definitely the BEST decision we made. From start to finish, from the very first time we viewed the venue, until months later- our wedding was seamless, amazing, and most importantly, stress free. The Red Barn was the first venue we looked at. We knew we wanted an outdoor ceremony, outdoor space for cocktail hour, and a beautiful, big room. The Red Barn checked all the boxes. We put down our deposit the very next day as we knew this was a venue we did not want to sleep on! Planning was SO easy and straightforward. As soon as we booked, we got set up with the amazing Alex, who was going to be our day of coordinator. She was communicative, helpful, and patient. She responded quickly to every annoying query I had, she kept us updated with our timeline of planning, and she was understanding when oopsie- we missed the tasting we were supposed to go to. She graciously set us up at the next one with no questions or drama. The planning process was very smooth due to Alex's expertise. The rehearsal was stress free and straightforward. The day of our wedding was more than we could ask for. Literally everything went to plan due to Alex being so on top of everything. She was kind to the many personalities in both of our families and felt more like a friend to us by the end of night. I cannot say enough good things about the Red Barn as a venue for a wedding. It is absolutely gorgeous, I feel like we did not need too many decorations as the venue itself is stunning. The food was delicious! During cocktail hour, it felt like there were so many servers with so much food, on top of the stunning cheese and fruit display. The kitchen was also very helpful and sensitive to the allergies in our group- one being my husband who had a nut allergy. The drinks and bartenders were fabulous- we told Alex that our group drank a lot of espresso martinis and the bartenders were ready when we started ordering them. AND they were delicious to boot. The staff was fabulous! All of the servers were professional and personable. The price for everything and the many options for food and drink were well suited to many budgets. I could gush for many more paragraphs about how amazing this venue is. Alex and the crew have made the Red Barn into a well-oiled machine. I cannot say anything bad about our experience and I know I can attribute that to them. Our guests are still talking about our venue months later. If you want to have the most amazing wedding day at a beautiful venue with wonderful people, do yourself a favor and book the Red Barn. You will not regret it. Thank you Alex and crew for the most memorable day and a fantastic experience!

She went above and beyond on our wedding day to ensure we had drinks, food, even going as far as helping my mother in law get to and from photos. She helped keep our little one entertained throughout the night so we were able to truly enjoy ourselves. Every single guest commented on how incredible she was-- if I could give her more than 5 stars I would.

Sure enough, my now husband and I, had just cancelled our 02/2021 wedding due to COVID-19 and were feeling lost and overwhelmed. I immediately set up a meeting with Leslie and planned a WHOLE wedding in, I kid you not, FOUR months. Leslie is amazing. We had our wedding on 09.26.21. We have not received photos yet but will be sure to hopefully upload some to this review later on! Leslie helped everywhere from finding rehearsal dinner spot, florist, venue, and of course the actual rehearsal and day of plus much more. We would of never ever found our dream venue location and more without Leslie. I'm telling y'all, she's got CONNECTIONS. I could text or call her anytime with the craziest questions and she wouldn't even flinch. Our final meeting, we walked out of there so confident because we trusted Leslie wholeheartedly. Our day was the most special and LEAST stressful thanks to her. She truly covers all her bases and will take care of things that you never even think to cross your mind. Do yourself a favor and reach out to Leslie and her team IMMEDIATELY after engagement. She will make the planning process fool proof and ENJOYABLE. I jokingly said to my now husband that we will most definitely work with Leslie for our vow renewal ceremony after only being married 3 weeks LOL. Also,, shout out to Janice, Leslie's assistant, for the behind the scenes work the day of! Thank you Leslie @ Planned Perfectly!!!

Great Circle did not disappoint and treated us to simply amazing food and hospitality. The staff was extremely professional and almost invisible(in a good way) during the reception on September 1st at the Portsmouth Elks Club.

All of our friends and family from all over the country couldn't stop raving about the food, and their new Tap Truck was a hit serving as both a source of ice cold draft beer and a conversation piece. As expected, the raw bar was top notch, and the tenderloin popovers, cheddar bites, bacon wrapped scallops, and deviled eggs were so tasty I barely had room left for the main course because I couldn't stop taking more! Our entree selections were similarly satisfying with a delicious chicken dish, glazed rainbow baby carrots, and their clam chowder being notable standouts. The sirloin carving station was a real hit, particularly with their fig and wilted arugula accomplishments, and Chef Ned's bright and engaging personality made this event really stand out with a friendly greeting and engaging conversation for all, both young and old. The whole team was exceedingly friendly and engaged, not cool and aloof like some service staff can be. I'd particularly like to give a shout-out to Jen who not only guided us through all of the planning steps leading up to the big day, but also was kind enough to go to the store after her set up was done and pick up more ice for us for our self-furnished beverage station. Many caterers would have treated this as a "not my problem"situation since we weren't paying them to provide beverages, but she went above and beyond to help ensure our event was a success. I have zero reservations about calling Jen at Great Circle for help planning our next big event and neither should you!
