Back in the day attending a wedding as a vegan was a challenge. Dinner might have been at best a salad without dressing or croutons. The lack of calories would be made up with beer or wine that hopefully was free of isinglass. If you’re vegan and/or want your vegan guests to have a great dining experience on your special day, you’re in luck! Excellent plant-based and vegan wedding caterers in Orlando are plentiful nowadays!
I’ve separated these vendors into two categories, Dinner Service and Cake & Desserts. The vendors in this list actively serve vegans and understand veganism. This is always comforting over vendors who just have a footnote on their menus that vegan requests can be accommodated.
VEGAN CATERING – DINNER SERVICE
The Madras Cafe is a vegetarian Indian caterer that is very vegan friendly. I’ve eaten at their restaurant and the food is very fresh and flavorful. I’ve eaten at countless Indian restaurants around the world, and they’re in the top tier. If you’re looking for something more adventurous than traditional Western dining, then you can’t go wrong with them.
Puff ‘n Stuff Catering is a mainstay in the Central Florida wedding scene. I’ve worked alongside them many times, and they always knock it out of the park. For large scale weddings they’re tough to beat.
Big City Catering offers a very extensive vegan menu, which looks amazingly mouth watering. Most other caterers require you to fill out a contact form in order to see their vegan offerings, so this is very welcomed and appreciated.
Two Chicks and a Pot wrote a blog post detailing their dedication to crafting an excellent vegan menu. Read about it here: Fresh and local vegan and vegetarian catering options.
VEGAN BAKERY – CAKE & DESERTS
Valhalla Bakery is my top pick for vegan cakes and desserts. Just check out their amazing designs on their website!
SunFlour Bakery is run by Vanja Grbic, a long time vegan and bellydancer. Her dessert creations are just as diverse and well-rounded as she is. Definitely check out her noms.
Cruelty-Free Cuisine is a newer vegan bakery on the scene, but everything they make is first class. They put a lot of detail in their creations, and the flavors are incredible.
Fig & Flour has some amazing cake designs. I’ve worked with a few brides who were over the moon with this vegan wedding caterer.
Delectable Delights is based out of Port Orange, which is a bit north of Orlando, but their desserts are amazing and they have a wide variety of offerings.
Those are my picks for top 10 vegan wedding caterers in Orlando and the Central Florida area. With the rising demand for vegan food, I expect many more to pop up in the near future. In the meantime, these are your best bets! ‘Bon’eless Appétit!
