We recently worked an event up at Colby College. Heather & her catering crew were awesome. The food was delicious. The staff went out of their way to accommodate all the guests & all the vendors at the event. We look forward to working with Black Tie again in the near future!

We had an exceptional experience working with The Black Tie Company for our wedding. Our coordinator, Amy Collins, went so far above and beyond to support us throughout this process. Amy went out of her way to help us with rentals, layout, and design. Black Tie's food was exceptional. The options were endless. Our guests were thrilled with the food and drink.

Black Tie's staff were incredible. Several people commented on never witnessing a spoon out of place or a water glass below half full. We feel so lucky to have worked with Black Tie!

We had an amazing wedding at The Landing at Pine Point and so much credit goes to Black Tie. Britta was so easy to work with and the venue looked amazing. The food was especially impressive. As a wedding professional myself, and my wife as a large event organizer, we have enjoyed catering and observed organization at hundreds of functions and weddings, and can attest that Black Tie ranks with the best of them. Highly recommended!

They pulled off a complete party for 40 people in less than two weeks. They provided the furniture, dinner ware, food, alchohol and soft drinks. Most of my guests commented favorably on the food and the fact that the staff was constantly asking people if they could get them something. The staff was very friendly and they left absolutly nothing behind but the left over food. They will be catering my next event.

Great range of sandwiches, bakery items, and coffee drinks. Great quality and good prices. When we had a lunchtime disaster (dead fish landed next to us outside), the staff was exceptionally kind and thoughtful.

The Black Tie is nothing short of excellent. I went to a wedding catered and planned by The Black Tie and was pleased with everything! Usually food at weddings can be mediocre, but the food was great! My hubbie and I couldn't get enough of the fried mac & cheese bites, yum! They accommodate anyone with allergies, my mom is dairy free and they made her a special meal.

The staff were attentive and offered a friendly face. The event planner was organized and was willing to jump through hoops to make sure the bride did not have to lift a finger during her special day. After having such a great experience with Black Tie, I decided to try their bistro in portland called "Union Kitchen". My expectations were blown out of the water.

They have fresh food and frozen dinners that are convenient for when I don't feel like cooking food. I am so glad that I stopped in. I would highly recommend them for any occasion!

We worked with Amy Collins and Jackie and Mark through Black Tie for our wedding at Pineland Farms. They were so amazing. Mark and Jackie were like magicians making things happen on our wedding day and they made it impossible to be stressed or unhappy. It was magical. Amy did such a great job as our Event Coordinator, organizing meet ups, details and helping my husband and I arrange our timeline and menus. I could not have had a more perfect wedding and it was thanks to this wonderful staff and team. I will definitely recommend them to everyone who will listen to me!
