February filled our hearts in many ways.

From Super Bowl & Valentine’s Day
to backyard weddings, celebrations of life &
catering for an industry event at Wente Vineyards.

We were thrilled to be the catering sponsor
for WIPA’s 1st quarter luncheon.
It is an honor to work with these talented folks.
Please keep them in mind if you have needs
for any event you are planning.

Yelp testimonial of our February bride Leigh ~

“Aurora catered my wedding and working with Dawn was a wonderful experience. She was attentive to all the details and had many great ideas. I had last minute additions and they were very accommodating. Staff arrived on time, professionally dressed and very courteous. The food was well presented, excellent quality and plentiful. My kitchen was left immaculate. I was looking for a caterer that would be creative with professional top quality food and I found this with Aurora Catering. I am in the hospitality business so I’m not an easy person to win over when it comes to other people catering event for myself. I would highly recommend them for any type of event.” (paraphrased from Yelp to fit) (@frontporchfloral in Livermore; www.sarahlutherphotography.com)
