Meriwether Godsey began as a catering company over 25 years ago, and we still love this area of our business. As a company of “foodies” catering allows us to offer broad services - from the most exotic concepts to basic fare, our goal is to always be stylish. Food is as trendy as fashion. We are uniquely equipped to keep up with catering trends through ongoing relationships with our diverse contracts and the constant updating and evolving of our signature dining establishments. While most of our accounts cater heavily (primarily for our clients), several in particular are public venues perfect for just about any type of event.
