Catered By Charlotte

Your wedding day should be extraordinary and we will help you make it that way.

Allow us to customize your wedding menu to suit your personal taste and budget.

Thank you for considering Catered by Charlotte to be part of your wedding day or event! We know that no two events are alike, which is why we don’t offer pre-set menu packages. Instead, we focus on customizing every menu to fit your personal tastes, style, and event vision.

To get started, we ask that you share as much detail as possible about your menu preferences—including whether you'd like to feature appetizers during a cocktail hour (and if so, which ones). If there’s something you'd love to serve that isn’t listed on our standard menu, please don’t hesitate to ask. After 23 years in the business, chances are we’ve made it—or can!

Table Service & Rentals

We no longer carry an inventory of china, glassware, flatware, or linen napkins. If you're seeking formal tableware, we recommend contacting your venue or reaching out to Aero Rental at 319-338-9711 for rental options.

For a more casual service, we offer heavy-duty, clear plastic disposable tableware (plates, utensils, tumblers) for an additional $2.00–$4.00 per person, depending on your needs.

Beverage Service

Our commercial license allows us to serve wine, beer, hard seltzers, and non-alcoholic beverages. You’re welcome to select specific brands that reflect your personal style and your guests’ preferences. Pricing is based on brand selection and consumption.

If you plan to provide your own beverages, our experienced team is happy to assist with pouring and service throughout your event.
