Your wedding day deserves more than a one-size-fits-all menu. SRG Catering brings the kitchens of seven beloved Fort Wayne restaurants to your reception — hand-crafted Italian from Salvatori's, premium steaks from Shorty's, fresh seasonal fare from Paula's on Main, and more — all coordinated by one experienced catering team.
From intimate rehearsal dinners to receptions for hundreds of guests, we handle the details that matter: elegant plated service or generous buffet lines, carving stations, passed appetizers during cocktail hour, and dessert tables your guests will talk about long after the last dance. We work with venues across Fort Wayne and all of Northeast Indiana, and we'll coordinate timing, setup, and cleanup with your planner so you can simply enjoy the day.
As a family-owned Fort Wayne business with more than a thousand catered events behind us, we know what a wedding meal has to do: feed a crowd on a precise timeline, look beautiful doing it, and taste like it came straight from the restaurant — because it did.
Wedding Catering Done Right
Plated, Buffet & Stations
Formal plated dinners, abundant double-sided buffets, family-style service, or chef-attended carving and pasta stations — styled to match your reception.

Professional servers, buffet attendants, and on-site coordination from setup through cleanup, so your family never lifts a finger.
Menus for Every Guest
Vegetarian, vegan, gluten-free, and kids' options built right into your menu — every guest at your wedding eats well.
A Wedding Menu As Unique As Your Love Story
Most Fort Wayne wedding caterers hand you a single menu and a few package tiers. We hand you seven restaurants. Couples routinely mix brands across the evening — Salvatori's bruschetta and filet crostini passed at cocktail hour, a carved tenderloin and pasta duet at dinner, and a Powers slider bar when the dance floor needs fuel at ten o'clock. It's a progression of flavors no single-kitchen caterer can match, and it's the reason so many of our wedding clients first met us as restaurant regulars.
Menu planning starts with a conversation, not a price sheet. Tell us your guest count, your venue, your style — black-tie plated, relaxed buffet, heavy appetizers and mingling — and your budget, and we'll shape a menu around it. We'll flag which dishes travel and hold beautifully for your timeline, build in vegetarian, vegan, and gluten-free plates for the guests who need them, and put everything in a clear written quote so there are no surprises later.

Serving Wedding Venues Across Northeast Indiana
We cater weddings at banquet halls, historic buildings, barns, country clubs, churches, parks, and backyards throughout Fort Wayne and the surrounding counties — and we coordinate directly with your venue on load-in times, kitchen and power access, table layouts, and teardown rules so you never play messenger. If your reception is in New Haven, Auburn, Huntington, Roanoke, or anywhere else in Northeast Indiana, we travel regularly for weddings of every size.
On the day itself, our team arrives early, sets the buffet or plating line, cues courses to your DJ or planner's timeline, keeps water and coffee flowing, and leaves the space cleaner than we found it. Your only job is to be married and hungry.
Wedding Catering FAQs
How far in advance should we book wedding catering in Fort Wayne?+
For weddings we recommend reserving your date 4–6 weeks ahead at minimum, and earlier for peak Fort Wayne wedding season (May through October). Popular Saturdays fill quickly — reach out as soon as you have a venue and date, even if your menu is still a mystery. We'll hold the date and build the menu together.
How much does wedding catering cost in Fort Wayne?+
It depends on your service style, menu, and guest count — a drop-off buffet prices very differently than a fully staffed plated dinner with passed appetizers. Rather than quoting a misleading flat rate, we build a written, itemized quote around your actual event, usually within one business day, with no obligation. Tell us your budget per guest and we'll tell you honestly what it can do.
Do you offer wedding menu tastings?+
We're happy to work with you on menu selections and arrange for you to experience the dishes you're considering. With seven restaurant kitchens to draw from, there's a lot to taste — contact us and we'll walk you through the options for your menu.
Can you cater our rehearsal dinner too?+
Absolutely — many couples book us for the whole wedding weekend. A casual Powers sliders or El Azteca taco-bar rehearsal dinner followed by an elegant Salvatori's or Shorty's reception is a Fort Wayne favorite, and using one caterer for both keeps planning simple.
Do you work with our wedding venue?+
Yes. We cater at venues, barns, banquet halls, country clubs, and private properties across Fort Wayne and Northeast Indiana, and we coordinate directly with your venue on timing, kitchen access, setup, and cleanup requirements.
Can you handle dietary restrictions at our wedding?+
Of course. Vegetarian, vegan, gluten-free, and allergy-aware plates are built into your menu from the start — just collect the details on your RSVPs and we'll make sure every guest is served safely and well.
