“My Dreams came through! We have nothing but praise for the way Raymond ran our ceremony. He was extremely accommodating in the planning stages and really helped to make the whole process as stress free as possible. His personal touch to each and every detail was simply amazing, and his overall command of everything allowed me and my husband to thoroughly enjoy the entire day without having to worry about anything- what a joy this brought to our peace of mind! Thank you for make our special day just that little bit more special. In addition, Raymond told us he becomes friends with all his clients-almost like family, and now I know why! Thank you, Thank you ,Thank you!!! “

“The BEST Catering in the Philadelphia Area! Our experience with Raymond’s Catering was absolute perfection. Raymond and Diane are two of the most flexible, fun people to work with - they were able to schedule time to review pricing/menu items between my two parent’s schedules, my schedule, and my then-fiance's schedule - if that meant meeting later in the evening to make sure everyone was there, then they made it happen. They really took the stress out of planning! They were professional, friendly, and willing to do whatever they could to make our big day exactly what we wanted it to be. Their pricing is extremely reasonable and the food is SUPERB. It has been 10 months since our wedding, and we are STILL having friends and family tell us how fabulous the catering was!”
- Hannah/Justin Miller
“I can not tell you how happy we are that we chose Raymond’s Catering - they really knocked it out of the park! If you want great food, for a great price, and to work with a team dedicating to providing you with a beautiful experience at your wedding reception, I highly recommend giving them a call! You won’t regret it :) “
- Janelle/Samuel Parkson
I did exactly what your ad said and relaxed and let Raymond's take care of everything. Cant wait until this years party, Raymond's always does a fantastic job for my party catering needs!! Outstanding and always delicious!!
I can attest that Raymond's food is excellent. If you need someone to cater your holiday party and you want homemade food, absolutely give them a call. -Nicole Lasorda - Barton Gilanelli & Associates - (Christmas Party)

“There are no words to adequately express how AWESOME the boxed lunches were today!!! We all were beyond thrilled with EVERYTHING !!! You made the process effortless and efficient while providing impeccable customer service. The end result of a very impressive meal for each of our athletes, coaches, and parent volunteers was thoroughly enjoyed by all. Compliments galore were expressed not only about the "HOAGIES" chock full with quality ingredients but also the little details of napkins, condiments, and box personalization. The best compliment I can give you is that of providing my strongest recommendation to our club for next year to work with you to cater ALL of the meal needs at the river for Madison Crew at Stotesbury 2017. Know that I will follow up with the club's board next year to underscore this recommendation even though my daughter is graduating this year and our family involvement will graduate with her. Finally, attached please find a little souvenir. Adam was so sweet to pose with me to commemorate the new found relationship Madison Crew and Raymond's Catering now share. Many thanks for all of your personal service. We will continue to spread the word of your outstanding offerings to our neighboring crew teams at Stotesbury and back home in Virginia. With appreciation.”

Everyone was really pleased with the meals. Everybody loves Raymond's Catering!!!" - Sharon K. Williams - (Damascus Road Anti-Racism Training Seminar)
"Last year, our first year using Raymond's, you were all amazed. Wow, what a huge difference to relax and watch the races without worrying about making meals for 100 people. You even came to our hotel on a moments notice to keep our kids warm and dry while they ate, instead of the tent site in the pouring rain. This year, it was like visiting family and you went above the call of duty and bRought strawS for us just incase we had rain again, which we did, and it came in handy. Hey, what's a regatta without rain. The food, once again was outstanding and your service and friendship immeasurable. Thank you all, and we look forward to seeing you again next year!!!" - Marijo Galvin - O'Connell Crew - (Stotesbury Regatta)

"We wanted too say thank you to you, John, and your team on behalf of the Georgetown Visitation crew team for your meals and your help this weekend. The meals were delicious and varied. Parents and students alike loved the dinner Friday night at the hotel.The girls loved the Tortellini Alfredo and the meatballs and sausage. The mini pastries were a huge hit (as were all the coffee cakes), keep your Mother on the payroll and tell her thanks from us! We truly appreciate your flexibility and changing venues for us Saturday. Everyone was happy to be sent off with a hot breakfast and lunch. Thanks too, for donating the hot pork lunch selection to the church homeless shelter. As much as we would have enjoyed it, we didn't think it would travel well, and we are sure those folks would appreciate it. Thanks again and book us for next May!" -Maryfran Kelly - Georgetown Visitation Crew - (Stotesbury Regatta)
"We just wanted to send you a note and thank you for the fabulous party that you catered for Katie's graduation. You blended in just like family and made all our guests feel right at home. The appetizers, entrees, pastas, roasts and desserts were all delicious and your staff expertly served them in our new home as efficiently and professionally as advertised. I'd have to go on for pages to repeat all the complimentsI received on the quality and delicious preparations of your foods. The shrimp cocktail was as fresh and firm as we had ever experienced. The gnocci were as light as air. The beef, turkey and pork roasts and the salmon was as tender and delicisuos as any 5 star brunch. Moreover, we could never leave out the delicous display of desserts spread out over 3 tables. They were all favorites that you may encounter in any great restaurant, but the home made care and the use of fresh ingredients gave them a taste, texture and freshness that is impossible to duplicate. Thanks again , we will be calling you for our next party!!" - Gene and Michele D'Andrea (College Graduation)

"The food was EXCELLENT. Everyone...and I mean EVERYONE, even my picky mother-in-law, raved about how delicious everythign was. The filet mignon melted in your mouth. MY son said the pasta primavera was the "best ever". Plus, we had plenty of food leftover for dinner the next day for 12 people (my family stayed over).e took a risk by contacting you via the internet and not through referral, and that risk certainly paid off. Thanks so much!" - Kathy & Steve Huston
"Now that everything has settled down from the party, I wanted to email you to say what a wonderful job you did on all the food. Everybody LOVED your food!

I wanted to let you know everything worked out great...my dad was late getting to the party so we were right on track with the time and everything.

"It's difficult to find a good caterer. One who will know what you are looking for and be able to suggest what would be just right. I was nervous arranging a caterer for my daughter's graduation from college. All my family would be there and I never did the catering thing before. Well after having Raymond's cater my party, I would never go anywhere else. The food was out of this world and the presentation was perfect. But the most important thing to me (after the food) was the service. Raymond's Catering is a family operation and it shows. The attention to detail was unbelievable and Raymond's made it fun!. I have used Raymonds' numerous times after that and so does my whole family. We don't cook anymore, we make reservations with Raymond's Catering."..Cheryl McEntee ( Graduation)

The Pork was awesome, the green beans were almost gone! I never saw people eating up their veggies so good. The whole experience was extremely positive. Whenever we have our next event you can be assured you'll hear from me. Thanks again for all of your help planning the menu and for the delicious food"....Renee and Kyle (Communion)
