    Wedding Cheese Cake

    Di Bruno Bros. made my wedding dreams become reality. I wanted a wedding cake made out of cheese and this company curated a masterpiece! I fell in love instantly.

    Best Wedding Food

    Having great food at our wedding was very important to us, and Di Bruno really delivered! We didn’t want good “wedding food”, we wanted great food, period! We worked with Gabi who was fantastic throughout the entire process. We had a lot of folks with food intolerances/allergies (myself included) and they were super responsive and great at handling any/all questions on that front. They were also flexible in allowing us to deviate from the norm to offer two vegetarian mains instead of the typical one. All our guests were super impressed and commented on how good the food was! Definitely a success in my book. :)

    The perfect caterer for our Philly wedding

    Di Bruno's was the perfect fit for our September Philly wedding with their mix of brilliant traditional Italian foods and funky twists on local classics. Our venue (Powel House, also amazing) had a short list of catering options and Di Bruno's was not only our favorite food but one of the more reasonably priced choices among the options we had. 

    We worked with Amy who helped guide us through the difficult selection process and build a menu that our guests are still raving about weeks later. The Di Bruno's team on-site at our wedding was incredible. Not only did every dish come out even better than our tastings, they happily engaged with our guests and enjoyed being a part of the party, explaining how they cook a number of the favorite dishes to our inquisitive foodie friends and family. 

    While everything was great, the biggest highlights were the Danny and Joe's Antipasti, the Cheesesteak Calzones, and the unbelievable Cacio E Pepe, fettuccine spun in a hollowed out wheel of parmesan cheese.
    We aren't huge cake people so we had fresh made pizzelles and cannoli for dessert, both were also huge hits and fun interactive desserts that our guests loved.

    We could not recommend Di Bruno Bros and Amy more!

    Philly Summer Micro Wedding

    Amy and her team did a phenomenal job for our micro wedding in August 2020 at the Hill-Physick House! We and all our guests were absolutely blown away by the delicious food and the incredible service! After having to change course for a second time due to social gathering restrictions, Amy guided us effortlessly through replanning our reception in just a month’s time. From our initial emails all the way to the tasting, we felt completely at ease with Amy and her team. We just provided some ideas for our vision and they created the wedding of our dreams! We would definitely recommend DiBruno Bros. to anybody planning a wedding in the Philadelphia area!

    DiBruno Brothers catered my engagement party this Summer and it was amazing! From the food to the service, I couldn’t recommend them enough. All of my guests were raving about the pâté and the gorgonzola. Thanks again, it was a night i’ll never forget!

    After hours is the only way to go

    We do Di Brunos after hours annually... so we decided we would use this years event to get engaged. The staff David, Tommy and Scottie were awesome, amazing and fed us well. They took care of us.... if you haven't done after hours I highly recommend it.

    Amazing, fun, quirky wedding reception venue - and delicious food

    We absolutely LOVED our wedding reception at Di Bruno’s. We cannot recommend them highly enough.

    The food was absolutely delicious; if you haven’t tried it before, just go eat it and see for yourself. Prices were reasonable. Venue was fun, upbeat, unique, down-to-earth and a perfect size and layout for our ~80 guests and small live band. Jackie, our Di Bruno’s coordinator, was extremely helpful and friendly throughout the entire planning process, and we had no problems planning it almost entirely remotely as we were out of Philly. BYOB was great and the staff at the reception were all helpful.

    We treasure our memories from our wedding reception at Di Bruno's. Highly recommend the venue to couples looking for a unique space -- it’s a hidden gem.

    We had DiBruno Bros cater our off-site 80 person wedding, and they were perfect! Jackie and Genevieve were our catering managers, and they were responsive, professional and flexible with what we needed. They provided amazing, fresh, delicious appetizers, dinner buffet and dessert for a very reasonable price with the Italian favorites package. They were accomodating for our guests with dietary restrictions, ensured that all of our decorations were set up before the wedding, and took care of every detail so we did not have to do anything ourselves. We would highly recommend them to anyone looking for a wedding caterer in the Philadelphia area- they are a Philadelphia institution for a reason!

    DiBruno's catered our son's wedding in October 2017 and we can't say enough great things about the event. Everyone involved in setting up and serving the food were very professional and accommodating. The meatballs and pasta were outstanding. Guests were so pleased to see them actually being prepared at the reception. The beet and goat cheese ravioli were delicious as well as everything else they served. Would not hesitate to recommend them for your next event. Outstanding job.

    We got married at Di Bruno Brothers Upstairs Cafe and truly cannot not say enough good things about Amy and her staff. Amy always very responsive and totally open to some of our less traditional plans. She worked in all the little details I saw on Pinterest, like a milk and cookies bar. The food was PHENOMENAL, we have received nonstop compliments on it when of course it was really all Amy and her team! Also for a center city wedding the value was incredible. We are so happy we picked Di Bruno Brothers for our special day, it was perfect!!

    On the morning of my daughters wedding, we were met by the most delicious breakfast catered by DiBruno Bros. Deli! The ladies & men in the wedding party also enjoyed a beautiful selection of sandwiches, fruit, and salads for lunch. They were professional in every way......prompt and friendly delivery.....beautifully presented & delicious food! We felt fortunate that our preparation time was filled with amazing meals to satisfy our energy & appetites! Thank you DiBruno Bros!

    October 16th, 2015 was when we had my daughter's rehearsal dinner upstairs at the Philadelphia Chestnut Street location. The staff from the food servers to the bartender were very accommodating and easy to work with. They were especially nice when we dropped of the alcohol and centerpieces the prior day! The food was delicious and the environment was warm and friendly. Danielle at corporate was very easy to work with. If using the TV and audio for a slides show or DVD go and test it out first.

    I've used DiBruno Brothers catering in a professional capacity many times, and knew they would deliver on the charcuterie front. My wedding was in the woods, and I wanted to give my out of town guests a taste of Center City Philly, so the 17th and Chestnut location was perfect for this end.

    Traffic and parking at 7 PM on a Thursday was a bit of a headache, but that's not their fault.

    As soon as I went upstairs and identified myself as the bride, the head server was so helpful and responsive throughout the entire evening. The entire service staff never hovered, but they were always readily available--something I appreciate as a former server myself.

    We were able to order gluten-free and vegan meals ahead of time without issue, and all the other food was AMAZING. The charcuterie display was by far the highlight of the evening--everyone kept commenting on it. The buffet style food was beautiful and tasty.

    The standard packages include all service, use of the space, bartending, basic bar mixers, and highend disposable utensils and plates (don't mind the last part--you don't even really notice.)

    All in all, it was a fabulous experience and the pricing was reasonable considering the quality, location, and the ease of staff communication. Highly recommend!

    I had the great pleasure of planning a rehearsal dinner at DiBruno Bros. the evening before the wedding of my son and daughter in love. From the minute I met with Danielle to discuss my options, to the last guests departure the evening of the dinner it couldn't have been easier or better. Everything was perfect and every detail was addressed in a very professional and personal manner. The food was absolutely delicious and the presentation was beautiful. I couldn't have ask for the evening to be more successful. I hope I have a reason in the near future to do it all over again.

    The whole Dibruno Bros catering team was amazing. They made creating a menu, set up and execution easy! Danielle was so helpful in making my vision come to life. The food tasted amazing and looked beautiful. I still have relatives telling me how great it was. The customer service was unparalleled: the catering lead even personally asked the elderly guests if they needed any assistance and took the time to explain every dish to them. They are awesome!

    Danielle was such a pleasure to work with from my very first encounter via email . She was so professional yet friendly and warm . Danielle always got right back to me when Zi called or emailed . She truly seemed to care that our rehearsal dinner turned out well . Her suggestions as to menu items etc.. We're spot on . Our family and friends could not say enough about the venue ( vesper boat house) and the food. All the DiBruno staff helped make the night special . The only negative issue, and I don't think due to any fault of. Danielle , was we were missing a table . Apparently a snafu with delivery from wherever tables came from. Unfortunately I was unaware until right before guests arrived and our seating place cards needed to be changed . I basically just rearranged guests. It all worked out in end . We were not charged for missing table

    Everything from menu planning to final toothpick clean up was handled in the most professional way possible. Communication was clear/concise/immediate. Small changes were made along the way to accommodate special needs and dietary requests. Staff was bright/cheerful/competent and arrived early to set up. We will never use any other catering company.

    My wedding reception was in the Di Bruno Brothers 18th street café space (catered by Di Bruno Brothers) and I CANNOT say enough amazing things about the event! They truly went above and beyond all of my expectations. I would definitely recommend Di Bruno Brothers catering for weddings and the café space is the perfect space for the non traditional bride and groom!

    I had my wedding at Dibrunos in May 2015. We got married in the upstairs area. They changed the space so we had a cocktail hour after and then dinner in another room. They also transformed the wedding area into a dance floor! Danielle Posess coordinated everything and was absolutely wonderful. Before the event she was very attentive to my countless emails. Her attention to detail was exceptional. She went through each step of the plan and truly made our day unique and special. She steered me in the right direction when I didn't know where to go with the planning. During the event the staff was phenomenal. They were highly organized and also went with the flow when things needed to be adjusted. They made the upstairs room look beautiful and surpassed my expectations. The food was spectacular of course. But what made the night even more special was how comfortable and easy it was to work with the staff at Dibrunos!

    DiBruno Bros. catered my wedding at an off site location. From the day I called them (Danielle was my representative), I felt connected and comfortable. They were professional, accommodating and the staff was so professional. Most importantly, almost two years later, people are still raving about the food at my wedding. I would recommend DiBruno Bros. to anyone for catering.

    DiBurno Brothers did an excellent job catering our wedding. Danielle Posess made sure to take care of our every need, from adjusting the menu to accommodate allergies to ensuring the tables were set up and looking beautiful. They also did a great job with scheduling, and making sure drinks, food, and cake were all served at the right times. And best of all, the food was delicious. I wish that I could eat more of it!

    Perfect for a small wedding

    We had approximately 55 guests at our wedding and wanted simple heavy hors d'oeuvres for our meal, not a seated meal. We also wanted more vegetarian options since neither of us eat red meat and I am a vegetarian, as well as our family having several vegans. Di Bruno was happy to help and, aside from a little trouble getting them to reply to emails and phone calls, we were happy with our food! Of course, you don't get to eat much at your own wedding but we were told everything was delicious! Di Bruno was willing to work with us in terms of adding dishes a la cart to our catered dishes and we were so happy with the amount and quality of the food!

    My (now) husband and I had THE most fabulous rehearsal dinner at the Upstairs Café at Di Bruno Bros. Rittenhouse. From the moment we started planning, we knew we were in the best hands with Jackie G. and the entire DB Catering Team. Jackie completely understood my vision and gave me exactly what I wanted. It was almost like we were friends for years! The evening began with a beautiful antipasto display during cocktail hour - that my guests are still raving about- then we indulged in an incredible interactive buffet dinner. I’m beyond grateful for the warm and welcoming service that my guests received throughout the evening from the servers, bartenders and culinary team. My husband and I made the best decision when we selected the Upstairs Café for our rehearsal dinner. We were looking for an iconic Philadelphia experience, and Di Bruno Bros. Catering gave us just that!

    We had a great experience working with the catering team at Di Bruno Bros. Danielle was very easy to work with and understood our needs for a relaxing event. She offered great assistance during the planning process. The set up team was very helpful the day of the event and overall we were pleased. They put a great display of their best items and our guests were more than satisfied. We definitely recommend this venue and catering services.
