KUDOS

A gigantic thank you to Dori, Janet, and the entire Hoopla Team for helping us achieve our dream wedding day! Truthfully, you helped us create the vision, navigate the complexities of event planning, and, most importantly, ensure everyone absolutely loved the food. They are still raving about it! From the cocktail hour small bites to the plated entrees and desserts, it could not have tasted better. We are so grateful to have worked with you and will be recommending Hoopla to all our friends, not to mention stopping by the Food Market frequently to keep this momentum going. Thank you again for all of your dedication, time, and care for all of the innumerable details and for helping us share a magical experience with our friends and family.

With lots of love, Jess and Reid

Before we planned our wedding we each made a list of priorities and revealed them to each other. Both of us picked food as our top priority. Hoopla absolutely smashed it. Food, drinks, presentation, everything was on point.

Every member of the team was professional, about their business, while flowing with the joyful energy of the day. Chef Kat checking on us and assuring we did a good job eating was so special. Cannot imagine the day without Hoopla.

Our son's Bar Mitzvah was made so special by the food, staff and experience of working with Dori and Hoopla Catering. Everything exceeded our expectations. The lead up to the event was so easy and I felt that we were in great and competent hands with Dori. She was so attentive to details and made sure that we had great options to work with for our event. 

Kat and Todd  were a joy to work with and the food was just delicious! As well as the presentation being unique and perfect for the vibe of the event we were going for. 

The staff on the night of the event were on top of everything. Checking in if we needed anything.... so kind and lovely during the food service/cocktail hour and everything just was so perfect! Our guests truly enjoyed the food as well!

I highly recommend Hoopla!

—Jen & Brad

It was a perfect day and the Hoopla team absolutely crushed it! The food, drinks, and staff were all AMAZING. We heard from multiple guests it was the best wedding food they have ever had, specifically the short rib. 

We will be Food Market customers for life! Most of our friends are already married, but I will recommend Hoopla to anyone I can. 

Thank you again for everything!

—Savannah & Evan

From the tasting, we were blown away and knew the wedding food was going to be top tier. From start to finish, Dori was a STAR and an amazing communicator, point-person, and day-of-coordinator for our day. So many of our guests said it was the best wedding food they’d ever had - and we agree! Dori and Hoopla were genuinely the backbone of our wedding and made the day perfect, even with a couple of smoothly-handled pivots. We can’t thank Hoopla enough for everything!!!

—Rosina & Danny

I truly cannot thank you and your team enough for everything you did to make our wedding a success. Your work to help me plan the event was so important, and our guests raved about the food. It was delicious, plentiful, and thoughtfully prepared, and every member of your staff was kind and dedicated to making our night as great as possible. Janet was fantastic(!), every catering team member and staff member I met was friendly and caring, and we just felt so satisfied with the entire experience. I also am so grateful to your team for pivoting with the tables to make the floor plan work in a way that still fulfilled our vision. Every part of the work from the Hoopla team was top-notch, and we couldn't be happier with how everything went.

I will definitely be recommending Hoopla to anyone who asks for catering in the Baltimore area. We will always be grateful to you for the role you played in our wedding, and I hope you will pass along our gratitude to everyone who worked the event. Thank you for being such a great partner throughout this process, and I look forward to our paths crossing in the future.

—Ben & Quinn

The Hoopla team truly went above and beyond for us on our special day. Working with Dori was amazing, she was quick to respond to my multiple questions and made the planning process a breeze. I cannot thank the team we worked with the day of enough. They were eager to help set up decor, lifting a giant weight of my shoulders! And once the party started everyone was incredible, chatting and even dancing with our guests. They went out of their way to be polite and make sure everyone had what they needed. AND THE FOOD *chefs kiss* our guests are still raving about everything, especially the desserts! My only complaint is that I didn’t eat enough of it. THANK YOU HOOPLA!

—Bre A.

I cannot thank you and your Hoopla team enough! I have to admit I couldn’t visualize a thing when I came to see the venue. I just saw an empty room, but when I walked in the evening of our event, it was breathtaking and perfect! The whole Hoopla team was amazing especially Kat, and my bartenders.
Everyone complimented everything throughout the evening and were so pleased with presentation, the food, etc! It is such a beautiful place! Thank you again for taking care of not only me, but my event.

—Sandy V.

The Hoopla team did an outstanding job of making my daughter’s Bat Mitzvah delicious and memorable. I was not working with an event planner and Dori stepped in to help with every detail. She made planning easy and the party was perfect because she had everything taken care of. I have received so many compliments about the food (especially the Pickle Bar that I asked for and the team at Hoopla executed perfectly). Every team member from Hoopla was polite, sweet, and helpful. I can’t way to work with Hoopla again!

—Sara D.

The Hoopla team went above and beyond to make our wedding wonderful! Our food was amazing, and we received so many compliments! Having Dori as part of your planning team is an invaluable asset to any couple!

From the staff bringing appetizers to our table to make sure we got them, to the friendly bartenders making killer drinks, everything was perfect! The service was also flawless, and guests got their food quickly while it was still hot.

I have never had such great food at a wedding, and I couldn't have imagined having any other caterer - other caterers are just not at Hoopla's level.

—Paige S.

We were absolutely thrilled with Hoopla!! Number one feedback we got from our wedding guests: the food was absolutely outstanding!!

Not only did everyone at Hoopla make the planning process straightforward and easy, they also helped with thinking through details of the wedding that transcended just the meal. They helped us with room layout, tablescape, rentals, timing, and so much more.

The night of our wedding, Hoopla made distribution of food and drinks seamless. Everyone working could not have been lovelier.

Hoopla truly exceeded our expectations. We feel very grateful and cannot recommend them enough!!

—Rachel H.

Working with Hoopla has been a fantastic experience! When my partner and I first tried their food at the Food Market restaurant, we knew we had to hire Hoopla for our wedding. Their food is so fresh, it just blew away the competition. Our guests agreed too - we got so many compliments for the food throughout the wedding.

We had so many questions about logistics, what would and would not work, and Dori answered them all patiently and so much quicker than I would’ve hoped. She was flexible with us as our plans changed throughout the process, and made sure we were getting exactly what we wanted for the special day.

Huge thank you to Dori! Special shout-out to Kat as well for making sure everything was perfect on the day of the wedding. She made sure that we were looked after and smiling the entire time. Could not have asked for a better experience!

—Austin & Triton S.

We truly can’t think Dori and the whole Hoopla team enough for the incredible job they did. They were always quick to answer our questions and offered great recommendations on the most-loved food and dessert options. The service was outstanding. We’ve been fans of Hoopla for years so we knew the food would be amazing, but they still managed to exceed our expectations. Our guests couldn’t stop raving about the food and drinks during the wedding and we’ve continued to receive so many compliments since. Thank you so much!

—Jocelyn C.

We cannot say enough wonderful things about our experience with Hoopla! Dori was SO helpful through the whole process and such a pleasure to work with. From start to finish, everything was absolutely perfect. The food was phenomenal! Every single guest we’ve talked to since the wedding has mentioned to us about how amazing the food was and that it was one of the best entrees/hors d'oeuvres they have ever had at a wedding. Guests were also talking about how friendly and attentive the staff were. The team went above and beyond to make sure my husband and I always had what we needed, and you could tell they genuinely enjoyed being part of our celebration.

Kat, one of the head chefs, was so kind and made a point to come out to talk to us which we thought spoke volumes!

We are very thankful to have been able to work with this awesome team on our wedding day. Everything exceeded our expectations, and we wish we could do it all over again with them!

—Paige S.

Hoopla were amazing for our rehearsal dinner and wedding! From our tasting to breaking down our wedding at the end of the night, the service was excellent, the food was delicious, and all the details were accounted for.
