Too good not to book! Personal Touch Dining made wedding planning a breeze! The venue was beautiful, the catering was delicious and they handled all the rentals. All we had to do is tell them what we liked/ wanted and they brought it all to life! The staff is also AMAZING! They were always on top of things, kind, patient and so helpful! Thank you Annalisa, Darcie, Danielle and the entire Personal Touch Dining Team!

If you want a top notch caterer, professional service and some of the yummiest food then Personal Touch Dining is for you! From start to finish they were on top of every detail, answered all our questions and concerns and coordinated with the vendors, etc. They made us and our reception feel like we mattered to them. People are still raving about the food and the overall reception!

Lauren, Annalise, and Brittany were a pleasure to work with throughout the months and days leading up to the event. The staff during our wedding was super attentive, no empty glasses! The food was absolutely delicious and just as good as the tasting. Our guests RAVED about how good the food was. They are super flexible to work with and pricing was super fair. Would definitely recommend them to anyone planning an event and especially for weddings.

Personal Touch Dining did a wonderful job with our wedding catering from start to finish. We requested proposals from 3-5 companies during our initial search and Personal Touch first impressed us with their affordability which was very important to us. Sometimes affordability can translate into lower quality for service/taste/etc. but such is NOT the case with PTD. From my initial email their sales representative was extremely responsive, courteous, and helpful. Everything tasted and looked great on the day of our wedding. Highly recommend this company.
