At Catering By Design, we believe every memorable event begins with exceptional food and attentive service. Since 2000, we’ve proudly delivered personalized catering experiences to thousands of customers throughout the Raleigh-Durham Research Triangle area.
Wondering whether your next event could benefit from professional catering? Here are some events where Catering By Design can make a big difference:
Team lunches, client meetings, employee appreciation events, conferences and any other professional events deserve food and service that reflect your organization’s brand. And when you’re managing a busy work schedule, the last thing you need to worry about is food.
At Catering By Design, we specialize in catering for work events with flexible delivery, setup or full-service options. Our extensive corporate menu features crowd-pleasing favorites for every dietary preference.
It’s not just the reception. You also need food for engagement parties and bachelor and bachelorette parties. You want to create a lifetime of memories and enjoy your special day, so getting a professional caterer to handle the food just makes sense.
Our wedding catering is one of our most popular services — and for good reason. We offer complimentary private tastings (for guest lists of 50 or more), all-inclusive wedding packages and individualized menu planning.

The post-wedding brunch gives you one last chance to catch up with loved ones before everyone heads home. But nobody wants to manage food preparation and serving when it’s time to start married life, recap reception memories with guests or catch a honeymoon flight. Professional caterers handle the details so you don’t have to.
Catering helps you serve enticing food for birthday parties, anniversaries, graduation parties, retirement parties and more. Catered events let you focus on making memories.
Celebrations of life, family gatherings, memorials and funerals are time-sensitive, and when you are grieving, you don’t want to worry about food. Our warm, supportive approach ensures we handle catering for events like funerals with care.
Faculty meetings, student orientations, campus fundraisers, graduations and other academic events mean having to meet a wide range of dietary needs and tastes. School events also last for hours, so you need to make sure food stays at the right temperature.
We’ve worked with many schools and universities across the Triangle to provide large event catering tailored to educational settings. We make it easy to plan within your budget and time frame.
Holiday programs, community outreach days, staff appreciation events, fundraisers, church events and other community functions need plenty of food. With this type of special event catering, you may need to meet specific religious dietary needs, or it may be hard to predict how many people will come to your event.
At Catering By Design, we know how to meet your community’s needs and can help you bring people closer together with the power of delicious food.

Seasonal parties all need their own holiday menus, whether that’s eggnog at the end of the year or BBQ for the Fourth of July. We can prepare festive favorites, set up your buffet and even clean up afterward.
Whatever kind of gathering you’re planning, Catering By Design delivers fresh, flavorful food with unmatched service. With nearly zero turnover in our staff, you can trust our team to get every detail right.
