Smooth Experience from Planning Through Execution

We worked with Genesis Delight Catering at the recommendation of our venue manager at Sweeney Barn. We formed a close working relationship with Dianna over the course of wedding planning, as we also contracted her as our day of coordinator through her event planning business, Sublime Event Coordination. GDC and Dianna have a strong working knowledge of Sweeney Barn and close working relationships with the venue manager, which makes them a great option if you're having your wedding there. Pros of our experience with GDC: -They have an extensive menu and are willing to be flexible to match your vision. My family is predominantly located in New York, and New York weddings tend to have very over the top cocktail hours. That was not common in the standard packages offered by the caterers we spoke to in Virginia. However, through the use of their extensive party platter options and Dianna's expertise, we were able to add more into the cocktail hour than the standard options and still stay within budget. It wasn't a New York cocktail hour, but there were plenty of options and no one went hungry. -GDC provided the bar (which honestly wasn't overly expensive and saved us the pain of having to coordinate bringing our own alcohol, which no one wants to deal with on the day of their wedding) and worked with us on identifying signature cocktails that could be batched by their bartenders based on our preferences. They also worked with us to swap out some of their standard wine and liquor options to similarly priced items that we enjoy. -Sweeney Barn only has a warming kitchen, and we appreciated Dianna working with us to ensure that we could still have a small dance set at the start of our reception without impacting the quality of the food. -GDC works directly with rental companies, saving you the trouble (we rented Chiavari chairs), and they have nice complementary table setting options. Props to Dianna for identifying a floral napkin option in stock to fit with our overall decor theme! -Staff made sure the bride and groom were taken care of at all times, which was a really nice touch. We received many compliments on the food, including the presentation of entrees at dinner. Strongly recommend GDC, especially if you're working at one of their frequented venues like Sweeney Barn, to make your planning and execution as seamless as possible.

Genesis Delight Catering was a true delight to work with for our wedding. From the very first interaction, their communication was prompt, detailed, and exuded confidence in their abilities. Their attention to detail, efficiency, and high-quality work were evident throughout the entire planning process and on the day of our event. The food was outstanding, with some guests mentioning it was the best wedding food they had ever had. The passed appetizers were a hit, and the bartenders' signature cocktails were a crowd-pleaser. The staff went out of their way to provide us with amazing service and create a truly memorable evening for our guests. Genesis Delight brought our vision to life, taking care of everything from the table decor to the linens and bar rental. We can't thank them enough for making our special day truly magical!

Genesis did an amazing job for our wedding! Dianna was easy to work with organizing tastings and making modifications to our selections and final numbers as we got closer to the wedding date. On the day, Genesis arrived on time and set up quickly, and assisted with organizing tables to be dismissed to the buffet. The food was great and our guests loved it, with people going back for second servings! Would definitely recommend them for any event.
Exceptional catering for our wedding day!

Genesis Delight Catering exceeded our expectations on our wedding day! From the very beginning, Dianna was an absolute pleasure to work with. She guided us through every step with care and attention, from the tasting to selecting the perfect menu and details for the big day. Her expertise made the entire planning process stress-free and enjoyable. On the wedding day, the staff went above and beyond to provide exceptional service. Our guests raved about the food, which was delicious and beautifully presented. The donut wall was a huge hit, bringing a fun and unique touch to the reception, while the late-night snack of sliders and milkshakes was the perfect way to keep the energy going. We couldn’t have asked for a better catering experience. Genesis Delight Catering not only delivered amazing food but also added so much joy to our celebration. Highly recommend!
