Wedding Catering by Andolini's | More Than Just Your Favorite Pizza

The dress, the venue, the photographer - there are so many big decisions to make for your perfect wedding day. But after the big "I do's" happen, and you are officially on to the celebration of your new lives together, you are going to want to eat! Not only is catering going be a really big deal to you, it's going to be a big deal for your guests.

Jurassic Park?! No - it's Carly & Jamie's wedding at 8th & Main Event Space

One of our biggest recommendations for YOUR wedding is to add in elements that are really all about YOU. Yes, the magazine weddings where everything is just so are beautiful to look at, but they don’t always give you much of an idea of who the couple is.
