We had our wedding on the wettest day of the year. We had tons of last minute cancelations and changes. I was beyond stressed and I have to admit, I probably became kind of a "Bridezilla" 😩 Not once did anyone from Simply Elegant lose their temper with me. Every time something was changed, pretty much every other day, they acknowledge the change, suggested different ideas and worked with my constant questioning and helped me to understand things. Because of the weather, we had to do some last minute moving around. They gladly let us use the pavilion as an alternate ceremony location. With the help of the staff and the awesome DJ, the ceremony ended up being absolutely beautiful. They even provided a place for our guests to stay, out of the rain, while waiting for the reception area to be ready. With their expertise, they were able to finish early and we were able to start the party earlier than planned. My biggest worry was how our idea of reception decor would translate into a reality. We basically made a few things, sent pictures of our ideas and let them "go to town" with the decorating. Upon walking into the reception room for the first time, I saw before me, our exact idea. The reception was EPIC and the catering staff did the best they could despite all the seat changes, last minute cancelations and special requests a lot of our guest had. We all had the time of our lives dancing to the wicked 80's tunes the DJ was pumpin' and the food was delicious. Everyone that had special diet requests were accommodated appropriately. We wrapped up the party at the insane hour of 930pm 😂😂😂🤦‍♀️ ( cuz we're old and go to bed at 9pm 😂) with everyone thanking us for inviting them to the "best wedding EVER" We want to thank the whole crew that helped make our 80's wedding totally awesome and a wicked event we will never forget. Thank you so much David and Kerry 🩷

Simply Elegant Catering did an excellent job hosting our Grand Opening BBQ. Their team was friendly, easy to work with, and handled everything from set‑up to clean‑up seamlessly. The food was great, the service was smooth, and the two‑tent layout created a comfortable space that everyone enjoyed. Our guests had a fantastic time, and we were very pleased with the overall experience. We will repeat for sure.

Simply Elegant saved the day for me when I needed a last minute catering for a small dinner. They honoured my budget, we're able to prepare a lovely meal for our group on very short notice and the service, delivery and clean up was great. Not to mention the food was delicious!! I would definitely use them again.

Our experience with Simply Elegant was truly exceptional. From start to finish, their team went above and beyond to support our not-for-profit agency, ensuring we stayed within budget without ever compromising on quality or service. Their willingness to accommodate our last-minute requests — including rearranging our cocktail-style tables on the spot — meant so much to us and demonstrated their incredible flexibility and professionalism. The food was absolutely outstanding — fresh, beautifully prepared, and consistently delicious throughout the entire evening. We received countless compliments from our guests. What stood out most was the genuine care and attentiveness of the site manager. He took the time to work closely with us, carefully managing the timeline to ensure everything was served exactly as we had envisioned. His dedication and calm support made a significant difference in the success of our event. The entire Simply Elegant team was professional, responsive, and truly accommodating during both the planning process and the execution of our event. We are deeply grateful for their partnership and the heart they put into making our evening so special. Thank you for everything — we couldn’t have done it without you!

Raymond and his team from Simply Elegant was amazing to work with, professional, accommodating and truly a gem of the company. Here is the back story of what they pulled together. I was helping a Company plan a Christmas Lunch for 60 plus.. I was notified on the afternoon of Dec 19th to plan the Lunch for Christmas Eve. Let's just put it this way, it was a Christmas Miracle that Simply Elegant put it together. The Lunch went without a hitched, food was good and hot. The client will use Simply Elegant for future events.

We ordered the traditional Christmas buffet for our company holiday party, and it was a hit. The food was excellent, and the team at Simply Elegant was friendly and accommodating—especially with our many dietary requirements. All our staff happily went back for thirds and fourths, and I highly recommend the tofu vegetarian stir-fry from their regular menu. Many thanks!

Our organization has used Simply Elegant to cater our annual holiday breakfast. With positive reviews from our staff, we reached out to them again for this year's event. From beginning to end they were a pleasure to work with and offered a large selection of breakfast items. When our final attendance #'s came in, we asked to reduce our order which they quickly adjusted. When the food arrived, the delivery person was friendly and helpful with set up. The food arrived hot along with fresh pastries and fruit. The following day they returned to pick up supplies and were in and out quickly. I would highly recommend Simply Elegant for your catering needs.

A Beautiful Venue with Exceptional Service! We got married at Waterfront Park in Calgary on July 5th, and the entire experience was truly amazing. The venue itself is gorgeous — the peaceful views of the water added a special touch to our ceremony and photos, creating a perfect atmosphere for our big day. What really stood out, though, was the incredible service and coordination. The staff was professional, organized, and genuinely caring. From the planning stages to the final moments of our wedding, they made everything feel effortless and stress-free, allowing us to just enjoy the day. We would absolutely recommend Waterfront Park to other couples — not only for the stunning scenery, but especially for the top-notch service that made our wedding feel so seamless and special. Thank you to the whole team at Waterfront Park for helping bring our dream day to life!

We just had our wedding catered by Simply Elegant on August 16th. The company is amazing to work with. Right from the beginning, communication was quick and efficient. The chef was accommodating of our, slightly odd, request. We had a christmas themed wedding, and Simply Elegant recreated their Holiday menu for us for it! We did a tasting prior to signing, and it was as amazing as the food was on the day of the wedding! We had so many left overs too so the quantities were great! We had so many compliments from our friends and family about the food! Could not have asked for a better wedding day meal! Will highly recommend in the future!

We had a wonderful experience working with Simply Elegant for a special family event. From start to finish, the communication was clear, prompt, and thoughtful—something we truly appreciated throughout the planning process. Even though our group was small, the team made everything feel incredibly meaningful and memorable. Jenn was absolutely amazing to work with. She transformed our parents’ home into a warm, elegant space with simple yet beautiful touches that captured the spirit of the evening perfectly. The food was superb—thoughtfully prepared and absolutely delicious. The chef clearly put care into every dish. A special thank you to Raymond, who went above and beyond. He was so attentive, taking time to connect with each of us and ensuring every detail was taken care of. His presence added a personal touch that meant so much to our family. The evening flowed beautifully, and we couldn’t have asked for anything more. I highly recommend Simply Elegant for any event, big or small. I’ll definitely be reaching out to them again in the future!

I have had the pleasure to work with Simply Catering three times in the past few months for lunches (60-80 people) at our office and it was a great experience every time. All staff that I had contact with were helpful along the way, adapting to small changes as needed and the food itself was also very good. We will definitely be going with Simply Elegant in the future!
