“I cannot recommend Maria, Rachel, and their team enough! We booked Taste of Elegance for our big day, and from start to finish, they were such a pleasure work with! Maria (owner) is clearly a stellar chef; our guests could not stop raving about how delicious the food was! Rachel (administrative assistant) was always so bright, calm, kind, and thorough. We really appreciated that during the planning process and on our wedding day. 10/10 would absolutely recommend and I will continue to sing their praises! What a gem of a local family-owned business.”

“We had the absolute pleasure of having Taste of Elegance cater our wedding this September, and I can’t say enough wonderful things about our experience. Maria and her team went above and beyond to make our special day perfect. The food (rustic Italian) was delicious and our guests couldn’t stop raving about it (the ravioli especially!) and we received tons of compliments throughout the night.
Beyond the food, the service was impeccable. Maria and her staff were attentive, professional, and truly cared about every detail. They made sure everything ran smoothly, allowing us to relax and enjoy the day without a worry. They even left the kitchen at my parents' house (our venue) absolutely spotless—like they had never even been there!
Taste of Elegance is not just about great food, but also about remarkable service and care. We’re so grateful for the experience they provided and would highly recommend them to anyone looking for a caterer who delivers excellence in every way.”

“I had them for my wedding and it was the best decision I could’ve made. The food was delicious and made fresh. They hand passed the appetizers and decorated the buffet table for us. They through in a grazing table and had amazing bar service. It was truly an amazing experience and they made my day so so special. Thank you guys for being the best!!!”

“We are so happy to have used Taste of Elegance for our wedding caterer! We received so many compliments from guests on the quality of the food with many saying it was the best food they'd ever had at a wedding. Rachel was a joy to work with, very communicative and helpful for any planning & questions. I hope I get an opportunity to enjoy their food again in the future!”

“Oct 28, 2023 A Taste of Elegance catered my daughter's wedding. I can't express how yummy the food was. Everyone was raving about the food (best salmon ever) and the presentation of the food. If you need a caterer, you must call Maria. You will probably talk to Rachel. Rachel was incredible and responded promptly to my many questions.
Last but not least. The chef, staff and bartender were so professional and fun too. Thank you for your part in a perfect day.”

“They were the best caterers & bartenders for our wedding! All of our guests kept talking about how good all the food was - even throughout the week following the event! All the staff were super professional, easy and fun to work with. They always replied to any questions in a timely manner and in such detail. I’d definitely hire them again!”

“WOW--A Taste of Elegance is truly the best caterer in Bellingham. Maria and her fabulous team catered our son's wedding at our home for about 100 guests. The whole planning process was so simple due to Maria's assistance. Our guests raved about the food and the service. If you are looking to caterer an event....look no further. Sorry....no photos of the food but it was delicious and the presentation was incredible”

“Where shall I begin! I have been in the event business for 15 years. I have planned and executed many incredible events all over Arizona, California, Washington, Hawaii & Mexico. I recently planned my own personal wedding in Bellingham, WA. As an event planner - I felt like I had extra pressure on making sure I provided my guests with an incredible experience. I interviewed many vendors to make sure I had the most perfect vendor team. Food is very important to my now husband and I. We wanted food stations that showcased our 2 different cultures and love for the Pacific Northwest. I also wanted to book and support a fairly small local business for catering as I have an appreciation for small businesses as I have one myself (Hoffwell Living). After speaking with the owner and the team of A Taste of Elegance - I knew instantly I wanted to book this vendor. My guests (including many that work in high profile event companies and hotels) raved about the food and the service. This team went above and beyond. Not only was the food incredible - they were such a delight to all of my guests and I got so many compliments about the servers and bartenders pleasant demeanor.
I am looking forward to referring them and working with them for years to come!
PS - life changing bread and salmon ;) Make sure to try some!”
