 Chef-Led Catering & Hospitality in Southwest Virginia

Beyond Catering is a chef-led, husband-and-wife-owned catering company serving weddings, corporate events, and private gatherings throughout Southwest Virginia.

With over 20 years of combined experience in professional kitchens, event catering, and hospitality operations, founders Meagan Carpenter and Justin Hitt built Beyond Catering on a simple belief: great events are created through thoughtful preparation, calm leadership, and genuine care for the people being served.

Meagan leads client experience, planning, and execution standards, ensuring every event is organized, well communicated, and confidently managed. Justin brings culinary expertise and operational leadership to the kitchen, overseeing menu development, food quality, and consistency across every service.

While we remain a small business by design, our approach is highly professional. Every event is supported by documented systems, trained team members, and clear service standards, allowing us to deliver consistent, high-quality experiences across both social and corporate settings.

Whether we are catering a wedding, supporting a corporate gathering, or hosting an intimate dining experience, our focus remains the same: food that’s prepared with intention, service that feels seamless, and an experience our clients can trust.

We promise to care for your gathering thoughtfully, bringing professionalism, intention, and genuine hospitality to every table, so you can be fully present with the people who matter.
