Reviews of Pranzi Catering (Event Planner)

Taylor Russo

Pranzi delivered cold food that was poorly packaged and had a hair in it to our work event. They were also unresponsive for a week to requests to correct an incorrectly written invoice. Worst caterer we've ever worked with.

Best place for wedding or party food is the best

Shelf life for customers- last event was less than par - cold hamburgers, no customer service after event. Totally disappointed. Been a customer for years - yet to get a call to address concerns from my event. Lost customer service here by owner! Not good!

Lindsey Goulet

Original owner - local FAMILY business! Excellent food and nothing but the best customer service.

Awesome catered food and service. They have EVERYTHING you would need for any event. Big or small they will take care of you. I even called with a small last minute function and they were very accommodating.

My daughter's wedding was a wonderful day .Their showroom is very nice for planning, ideas, and the company offers a variety of services . The food at the tasting was excellent. The wedding was a beautiful event. The tent looked great and the food was excellent. The sweetheart table & guest tables looked really pretty and the lounge furniture & photo booth were both a huge hit . I was disappointed with event manager on day of the wedding. She was present but not aware . Attention to detail was just average. Although the staff was friendly, the onsite communication with venue was lacking. The heaters in the tent were never turned on and it was very cold. The event manager should have NOTICED the room was very cold, and at least attempted notify someone to assist with the situation, but it was ignored. A guest assisted with the heaters on his own, the situation could have been avoided. Although the food was excellent not all (75 )guests received their meal warm and both the bride & groom had to send send their food back to be heated. They needed more servers. The smaller flower pieces (the parents wristlets) were child size and wilted (that is being generous).

Wow wow wow...still amazed by the incredible work and food! We are beyond grateful to everyone at Pranzi for their incredible work from Lisa to Laura to Nicole to the entire staff. They blew us away with the attention to detail and caring about how my new husband and I experienced the day. We actually ate during our wedding due to their coordination!! The only thing I would change was the schedule but that was my own choice and add another heater outside for our venue! We also had their DJ (Mike) who did a fabulous job! Thank you to Pranzi and all their incredible team members for making our wedding day spectacular! Highly recommend!!

I have worked alongside Pranzi numerous times (as a DJ) and have nothing but positive feedback to give! They are the real deal; the premium name in catering and event production. No one can do it better, period! Bravo!

What a frustrating event with Pranzi. Extremely low class. Six years of being a professional wedding photographer and I have never been more disgusted by the food I was "served" (see pics) for $100 / person charged to the couple. That is my main concern - they are scammers who charged the couple way more than the $3 of food the vendors were actually served. I am so eager to tell the couple who hired us that they got sooo ripped off by the five vendor meals they paid for, but I don't want to ruin their lovely wedding day. Extremely disorganized staff and vendors were told six different times by six different people to come get food from the "buffet" (two 3/4 empty tin buckets covered with tinfoil with "vendor" written in sharpie, we had to walk into the crowded kitchen with people shouting to serve ourselves and had to beg for forks haha). My meal was rice. $100 a person is the cheapest option per plate, I repeat. For rice. That's $500 Pranzi scored to serve vendors rice and a few pieces of chicken that sat out for a while. Jesus. I would have asked the couple to NOT buy me a vendor meal and give me cash so I could order a filet minion from a real restaurant in Providence to the venue and eat that for dinner. I am absolutely a wedding snob as I've been to over 200 but oh my god Pranzi is so low class. Went to get a glass of house red wine at the open bar and they allowed a WEDDING GUEST buy me a glass of wine because they wanted to change me $18! Wow! And my assistant and I had to move the cake table to the center of the dance floor for cake cutting because no staff was anywhere to be found. I've worked at some really trashy venues and had that kind of thing happen but this was at a RI mansion, big bucks. They're on my "never work with" list. If you care about your vendors, your guests or your event, please don't hire! PS to other wedding vendors out there... it's probably a good idea to be kind and accommodating to other vendors... so we refer you. My business page is #1 on Yelp on Boston and well... all my couples will know not to hire you. Just a thought! I've never reviewed another vendor before ... that bad. Good luck!

I just attended a wedding at Glen Manor in Portsmouth catered by Pranzi. I found their stsff yo be top notch, the 2 female bartenders were terrific. The food optiond were chicken, fish and vegan, all were cooked well, could have been a little hotter, and the staff was efficient with water and rolls replacement. The wait staff was very pleasant, and the wedding itself ran smoothly. I would recommend Pranzi for a catering event.

Super helpful in getting your event from start to finish. Food is great.
