Wooden Paddle is a Lemont-based wedding caterer offering on-site, wood-fired cooking with an unconventional, family-style menu across the Chicagoland area. All food is cooked on-site in an 800-degree wood-fired oven, with a fully à la carte menu that includes pizzas, pastas, salads, appetizers, and fresh-pressed cocktails served family style; gluten-free crust and dairy-free cheese are available. Founded in 2013, Wooden Paddle has catered at over 60 event venues around the Chicagoland area. Based in Lemont, IL, Wooden Paddle generally travels up to 50 miles from their kitchen and has catered across the Chicagoland area. Couples frequently note that guests raved about the food long after the wedding, highlight the attentive handling of dietary restrictions, and praise the private tasting experience and the energy the on-site wood-fired oven brings to the event.
