FAMILIAR DISHES, CREATIVELY ELEVATED
We are Carolyn and Mark, a husband and wife team; both born and raised here in
✨Charleston, South Carolina ✨
We have a combined 25 years of experience in a wide variety of restaurants around the US.
From fine dining farm to table, to classic steakhouses, breakfast diners, Indian restaurants, and fresh-off-the-boat seafood joints, the breadth of inspiration brought to Aquarian Catering makes for a rich, unforgettable experience at each unique event.
Our passion extends beyond food. Our goal is to foster a true, authentic sense of community, joy, and belonging through the meals we curate. It is an honor to do this in the city where we grew up, a city whose food scene is growing rapidly.

TESTIMONIALS
“You two! Honestly what stars you are. I can’t thank you enough for making yesterday so very special. I honestly couldn’t have imagined better food or more wonderful people to have at my 30th. I am incredibly impressed with what you guys put together, and I know y’all are going to kill it here in Charleston. Every guest couldn’t stop talking about how delicious everything was!!”

“Despite some challenging surprises, you guys crushed it. The shrimp and grits were so fun and the veggies banged. So many people told me it was the most interesting wedding food they have had. We are so happy we worked with you.”

Everything was so well-balanced and seasoned literally perfectly- perfect spice levels too. I can’t stop thinking about it.”
