Autumn's Catering & Cafe — Restaurant in Virginia

We were planning a wedding at a vineyard in Nelson County, VA but live in Raleigh, NC. Not being from the area we didn’t have anyone to ask for recommendations. When searching online, we found that most options in the area were either BBQ (too informal for what we were looking for) or French gourmet (too formal for what we wanted.) We found Autumn’s Custom Catering on the wedding planning website, Zola, and then did some research on them. The menu choices were just what we were looking for, and reasonably priced. We reached out to Claudine, the owner and I’m so thankful they were available for our wedding day, 10/29/2022. Even though they’re based in Richmond, they were willing to make the drive to our venue (for a very reasonable price). The food was AMAZING. We chose ham, lasagna, and chicken marsala, along with veggies. Everything was served family style, and the servers who helped were all so wonderful and attentive. Since the meal came with a variety of cupcakes, we opted to have just a small wedding cake made by a friend to cut, and served the guests the cupcakes. They were so delicious! My mother’s favorite cake is carrot cake, but she is very particular about her carrot cake. Most are simply spice cake with some carrot flakes in it. My mom loved the carrot cake cupcakes. And the chicken was so tender, you didn’t need a knife to cut it. Claudine and her servers got all the centerpieces set out for us as well as the table settings. Everything was just perfect. They also packed up all the leftovers and labeled them so we could take them home. She even included a lovely goodie bag just for my husband and I to take back to our hotel. I highly recommend Claudine and Autumn’s...

I’m not exaggerating when I say our wedding would not have been so wonderful without ACC. The rehearsal dinner and wedding were both catered by Claudine and her team and from the tastings to the end of the wedding, the service made us feel like family and the food was incredible. We had so many compliments on the food. One thing I’ll also say about ACC, we tried some gluten free and vegetarian options and while I am not gluten free or vegetarian, those were my absolute favorite options. They are so so accommodating of food sensitivities and allergies. If you have a chance to order the zucchini rolls or the vegetable tortellini, do it! I’m addition to all of that, the staff were just incredible. They were dancing along with us and even left a photobooth photo and a sweet note in our guest book that I will always cherish. We will definitely recommend them for other events and will use them again as soon as we find...

Autumn's Custom Catering went above and beyond on my wedding day. Not only was the food amazing, literally so many guests mentioned how delicious the food was, but the team is the best! Claudine and her staff were so nice, checking on us during dinner to see if we wanted any more food/drinks, advising when to cut cake for the guests, and bringing the bride water when dancing. Additionally, prior to the ceremony the staff helped my husband's grandmother transport, set up, and attach decorations to the cake which went above and beyond their commitments. Autumn's Catering were timely with all communication, provided insight into food/drink selections, helped coordinate/set up rentals, and worked with us when we decided to add a late night snack option that wasn't originally apart of their menu. We can't sing their praises enough and would recommend them to anyone looking for catering...
