Liz and her team were fantastic!
In the lead up to the wedding Liz was always able to be contacted to answer any questions we had or make any necessary tweaks to the menu. They were able to accomodate all dietary requirements without any fuss!
On the day, Liz and her team were very Professional. Arrived on time and were great hosts to our guests. All night and following days and weeks, our guests were raving about the quality of food that was provided.
Thank you again for our outstanding service. I would 110% use Simply Food over and over again!
Liz and her team are just the best!
The food was absolutely amazing with generous portions and had all our wedding guests talking. Not only the food shone but her impeccable attention to detail and knowing the venue was set up and pack downed took away much stress for our big day.
I can’t recommend simply food enough for your next event.
We used Simply Food for our wedding and definitely recommend them.
Liz and her team were so knowledgeable, professional but warm and made our guests feel really welcome and relaxed. The food was excellent, and Liz’s chef was happy to accommodate a special request for our main. Our guests loved the food and are still talking about it.
Thanks so much Liz, you really helped make our day one to remember
