Wedding Testimonials

---

"I am a Wedding Coordinator who recently collaborated with Brian and his team on a wedding at CuriOdyssey in San Mateo. Long story short - the wedding was a success, service was smooth, and Brian's team helped make it all happen.

Leading up to the wedding, he was very hands on in preparing the details for the set up of the day. He and the bride chose linens, napkins, and other colors together. We had a venue walk through together where we Brian took detailed notes and provided feedback on setup. This kind of personal attention is what takes vendors from good to great.

Cheat-A-Little was very accommodating of dietary restrictions, which I think can be sometimes hard to find. We had several guests who were vegan, vegetarian, and garlic-free. Brian handled releasing tables to buffet - something I usually do - and it made things so much easier as he knows how his kitchen and staff work. The service team was polite and on top of things. They were on time, efficient, and adjusted to any changes easily. Break down and clean up was a breeze.

From a Wedding Planner to any prospective client, I highly recommend Cheat-A-Little Catering!"

"Cheat A Little catered my August 2018 wedding at the CuriOdyssey Museum. I reached out to them because they are on the approved caterer list and I knew they'd know the venue and its logistics. Our wedding's organization definitely benefited from the company's positive relationship with the museum. I worked with Brian, who was professional and organized from the start.

Cheat A Little coordinated table/linen/flatware/glassware rentals, non alcoholic drinks, cocktail hour food, dinner buffet and a dessert/coffee bar. Our menu was 3 passed appetizers and some stationary mezze platters of hummus and pita. For entrees, beef, fish and limited portion vegetarian buffet items with salads and roasted vegetables on the side. CAL also coordinated florals and MC services from other vendors. My fiance and I bought our own beer/wine for Cheat A Little to serve, ordered a cake from an outside vendor, hired a band ourselves and hired an outside wedding coordinator. It was great that CAL could scale their services to as much or as little as we needed - florals and MC were services we added later.

After signing on with CAL, I went to a free tasting to sample the menu. It was easy to make a few small changes - the team can do anything, menu-wise. As the date of our event approached, I worked with Brian, our wedding coordinator and the venue to plan a table layout. We initially scoped 175 guests, thought we had 200 one month out and had 210 day of. Cheat A Little accommodated with no problems.

Our guests raved about the food, the professionalism and organization of the staff and the overall smoothness of the event. We even got to keep leftover food, which was great to feed family who stayed in town after the wedding.

Highly recommended!"
