Wild Thyme Catering

Services

Along with their superb and varied cuisine, Wild Thyme Catering offers complete event planning for weddings, rehearsal dinners, brunches, and other social or corporate events. They’ll help with site location, all décor, lighting and props, entertainment, and permits. The folks at Wild Thyme also know many ways to manage a budget without sacrificing quality. Wild Thyme catering has neither corkage fees nor cake cutting fees. They are one of the few exclusive caterers serving the Brazilian Room.

“They are amazing. Their customer service is unmatched. Sally is incredible. She makes sure everything goes off with out a hitch. The food they do is so diverse,” said one wedding professional.

“Sally really listens to her clients and intuits their needs. She knows how to give brides the right recommendations—because she has a good sense of their style and budget,” said another professional. An event producer explained, “They make a special effort to tailor the menu to meet the client wishes and budget. This may sound common, but in many cases the caterer appears to do this, but isn’t really that flexible.”

Certified By The Guide Reviews

(What does this mean?)
These Reviews are from real brides who have used this vendor's services—pulled straight from their Certified by The Guide reference check. We only post reviews that we have collected, so we can feel confident that they are the real deal. Yes, we know. We're control freaks.

“I absolutely loved Sally and her whole staff from Wild Thyme Catering. They made my wedding experience absolutely amazing. She said sure, we could do Oaxacan-themed party for a wedding. The food was excellent. My guests raved about the food—they LOVED the food. Wild Thyme made it gorgeous and I worried about absolutely nothing.”

“I don’t know if I’m more impressed by their food, presentation or great staff, but Wild Thyme is simply an awesome catering company.”

“Everyone complimented us for the great food. They did a beautiful spread.”

“I really recommend them very highly. They were quite accommodating. They went the extra mile for us with extra touches.”

“There are some caterers who always do the same things for weddings—very predictable. Wild Thyme does not.”

About This Company

As a warm-up for a career in catering, owner Sally Van Slyke first spent a number of years as an executive in the entertainment industry, including eight years as head of Marketing, Publicity and Promotion for Universal Pictures. She managed to take cooking and event design classes throughout the world during that time, and later decided to make the leap into catering. Given her background and her innate unflappability, Sally is particularly adept at event management and international cuisine. At Wild Thyme, she combines forces with chef Robert Corliss, who brings his many years of experience as Executive/Head Chef for many well-known Bay Area restaurants and with chef Julio Saca—clients rave about his authentic Oaxacan cuisine.
