Wow!!! 2shea catered our wedding and they went above and beyond! From the moment we started working with them, they were organized, efficient, responsive, and of course the food was delicious. Catherine and Deanna helped us coordinate many details of our wedding and were always ready for last minute changes. During our tasting, they listened to our feedback and discussed all the options we had in order to stay in budget. They were always clear about costs and we felt extremely well taken care of during the day of our wedding. Highly recommend!!!

2Shea was an absolute dream to work with from start to finish. From the very beginning, they felt like family — the kind of people who truly care about the couples they work with and go above and beyond to make sure every detail runs smoothly. Their communication was always clear and thoughtful, and I never once had to worry.

On our wedding day, everything was flawless. Our guests are raving about the food — how delicious it was and how perfectly everything was cooked. Every dish was full of flavor and beautifully presented.

When I saw Deanna on the day of the wedding, I couldn’t help but tear up. Deanna and Catherine meant so much to me throughout this whole journey, and I’ll never forget the kindness, support, and care they gave us along the way. They made us feel so special, like we were the only couple in the world.

And I have to mention the strolling cannoli — OH MY GOSH. I’m not sure of the girl's name who did it for us, but she killed it! We kept it a surprise from our guests, and they absolutely loved it. It was such a fun and memorable touch.

I couldn’t recommend 2Shea more. If you're lucky enough to work with them, you’ll know exactly what I mean.

2Shea catering catered my daughter's wedding on June 14, 2025.
The food at the cocktail hour as well as the dinner served at the reception was excellent. The staff was incredible. They were very professional and attentive. I received many compliments from my guests about the food. Everyone said it was delicious. I would highly recommend them to anyone looking to cater an event.

We hired 2Shea for our September 2024 wedding and we could not have been happier! Everything from our tastings, to the food that was packaged up us to enjoy after the wedding was perfection! Deanna and Catherine were an absolute pleasure to work with in the months leading up to our wedding. Their customer service was excellent and it was obviously that they both truly cared about making our wedding day a success. They were also very flexible and accommodating of our special requests/concerns. Guests raved about the food, in particular, the cocktail hour. (The mini grilled cheese and tomato soup cups were a favorite!) The catering team that worked our wedding were all very kind, professional, and attentive to detail. 2Shea's prices are very reasonable, compared to several other catering companies in the area, and if you choose them for your wedding, you will absolutely be in great hands!

Recently had a church event at 2 Shea. Staff service, food and ambiance were terrific! But what impressed me even more was the honesty of the staff. At some point in the evening, my diamond and ruby bracelet came off my wrist! I was unaware this happened! The bracelet was found by the staff and they contacted the chairman of the event who recognized my bracelet and it was returned to me. Whoever found that bracelet could have slipped it in the pocket but they didn’t!!! Thank you from the bottom of my heart for your honesty. This bracelet has great sentimental value! Highly recommend this venue for ALL your events. They are the best!!!

We highly recommend working with 2Shea Catering as your jack-of-all-trades wedding day caterers! Deanna and Catherine were so pleasant to work with in the months leading up to our wedding, picking up and remembering all the small details that built up to make our special day as wonderful as we could have imagined. The tastings we were able to attend prior to our event were so helpful for us to finalize our menu. While there wasn’t a bad option at either the private or grand tastings, being able to share in a dinner with our family really helped align everyone with the tastes that we wanted to take in together on our wedding day. Catherine and the rest of the 2Shea team made sure everything ran smoothly on-site during our wedding day and our guests raved about the quality of the food for weeks after. Thank you again, Deanna and Catherine, for helping make our special day come to life and taste so good!

We had the most amazing experience with 2Shea. From the beginning, they were easy to work with, plan, and execute with for our big day. Deanna was FANTASTIC and was wonderful to work with. She was always transparent, helpful, and provided years of knowledge to help us with decisions. Catherine was also great at keeping us on track and wonderful to work with too! The tastings were amazing and we highly recommend going to both options: the private and grand tasting. On our wedding day, they had plates of the passed apps waiting for us with champagne and His/Her drinks. They kept us fed and hydrated for our wedding. The food... it was phenomenal. The steaks were cooked perfectly, Fish was fantastic, Chicken and Veggie dishes were also amazing. Our friends and family keep raving about the food saying it was the best wedding OR general catering food they've ever had. And, we agree! :). The dessert station was a hit. Everyone was gushing over the donuts, cupcakes, brownies, and cookies after our wedding. Don't look any further, book 2 Shea and you will have a magical and delicious wedding. We're looking for other excuses to have 2 Shea cater for us in the future :).

Look no further than 2Shea for your wedding catering! We used 2Shea for our September 2024 wedding in Windham, NY and could not be happier! The food was DELICIOUS and the drinks were tasty and strong! Our guests left our wedding happy and full. Catherine was so helpful and sweet, and made sure we had everything we could possibly need on the wedding day! Thank you 2Shea!

2Shea was amazing to work with and our guests absolutely loved all of the food! We need to specifically recognize Deanna and Catherine for making our day stress free and everything we could have hoped for! Both women really put our minds at ease and we could not recommend them or 2Shea more for any couple!

A wonderful family-owned & operated catering business! There is a reason 2Shea is widely recommended by so many other wedding vendors... They truly care about their couples, are extremely reliable and of course, serve delicious food! Our wedding guests could not stop raving about the food! Everything was perfect and many who ordered the filet mignon said it was the best they had ever had (wedding or not). The craziest part about that is our venue (the Sablewood) did not have a kitchen on premises so 2Shea had to bring a mobile kitchen. I was super impressed that the quality is not affected at all!

It was great to work with Deanna and Catherine who were very patient with my many emails and questions. We also really enjoyed the planning process, particularly attending to the tasting events which are such a fun activity to enjoy with your spouse & family. Highly recommend 2Shea to all future brides!!

2 Shea catered my baby shower over the weekend and I cannot rave enough about the experience! The food and service were both the best in the capital district by far. Absolutely delicious. Incredible staff. Highly recommend!

Brianna Kern

We were initially a bit nervous about the food for our wedding, given some challenges our venue had, but Deanna quickly put us at ease. She was attentive and accommodating from our first email, offering tastings of their extensive menu options, from main dishes and stations to cocktails. Choosing our courses was tough because everything was exceptional! On the wedding day, Deanna and the team were superb, dressed professionally and serving with smiles. She ensured flawless setup and smooth operations throughout. We're immensely grateful to 2shea — guests raved about every dish and drink. 1000/10!
