Me and my husband chose MAHFY to cater our 80 person wedding because they offered extensive menu options and the price was right. We are SO GLAD we went with them. This husband and wife team was a true pleasure to work with from the beginning. They came to our home for a tasting, which made for a lovely sort of date night. We enjoyed getting to know them and felt very taken care of. They remained attentive and communicative in the months leading up to the wedding, answering any questions right away. At the wedding, our guests were delighted by the food, and I’m still hearing praises of it a month later. Our guests had a wide array of tastes and dietary restrictions, but we easily found something for everyone (see our menu in the photos!). Don’t hesitate to hire MAHFY for your event! They’re good people serving good food :).

Chef Ellen and her team did an outstanding job executing our office party for 125 guests. We had a fall themed menu (including Apple Pie Fried Ravioli & Grilled Mushroom w/ Sausage Gorgonzola Mascarpone! YUM!) and Chef Ellen made it extra special by dressing the room with fall florals, chalkboard signs & wooden boxes for elevation. Her staff was very professional (shout to Tom, whose Hospitality went a long way!). We will definitely look forward to having Chef Ellen & her team back at our office in the future!

It shifted the whole energy of the night. People who were about to leave stayed for another hour. Groups formed around the cart. My dad still talks about it. Its not just food, its an experience.

Abigail Kirsch Catering 

5.0

New York, NY

    The seeds of the business go back to the 1960s when Abigail started a cooking school from the basement of her home. Her entrepreneurial spirit and early success drove her to quickly expand the school to a retail outlet, and few years later, her husband, Bob, sold his company to join her in launching the catering business. Their son, Jim, joined the couple in 1980 and has been running the business with Partner & Chef Alison Awerbuch since the early 2000s. Through the years, the DNA of Abigail Kirsch has never changed. Rooted in the belief that, “We are only as good as our last event,” its culture centers on creativity, planning and flawless execution. The company’s mission is to execute events in which the client feels like a guest and guests feel as though they are in someone’s home.

    Don't consider Abigail Kirsch. Book your wedding at Abigail Kirsch! From beginning to end it was such a wonderful experience! Our Event Coordinator was absolutely amazing. He made it so easy for us to enjoy our day, knowing that he would take care of everything. The venue was gorgeous, the service impeccable, the food outstanding, the presentation beautiful, the staff were all friendly and welcoming. What more could you ask for? We would highly recommend having your wedding at an Abigail Kirsch property. You will be in great hands!

The food was the highlight of the day—especially the Mediterranean Medley, Caviar on blini, the mango mousse shot cups & mini dessert pastries, which our guests are still raving about. Everything was delivered on time, at the perfect temperature, and beautifully presented on beautiful platters. A special shout-out to Belayet, who went above and beyond to make sure every guest was taken care of. They truly allowed me to relax and enjoy being the bride-to-be without worrying about a thing.

    Creative Edge Parties

    New York, NY

      The Creative Edge team has been the industry leader of food design and innovation for over 30 years by immersing ourselves in collaboration. We have dedicated ourselves to culinary excellence, flawless event management and finding ever inventive ways to present seasonally relevant food within a socially aware environment. We constantly explore up and coming talent and trends that span the field between cuisine and design. As leaders in the food industry, we strive to build fleeting experiences into lasting memories via unique menus and collaboration.

      Food was a big priority for us when planning our wedding. We wanted it to be fun, delicious, and in budget. Creative Edge delivered on all of this and WAY more. They basically ended up acting as partial wedding planners for us, helping us lay out the flow of the evening, and helping us find ways of savings money where possible. Every detail was perfectly planned and executed. They dedicated a server to me and my husband for cocktails so that we could eat between chatting with guests and so our needs were met. They figured out how to do a wedding cake tower of banana pudding when we decided we didn't want a cake. I wish we could get married again so I could work with this team and eat their awesome food

      Red Oyster USA 

      5.0

      New York, NY

        We are a boutique catering business, specialized in Oystertaining people. Our Oystertainers open fresh oysters on the spot while entertaining your guests. The oysters come from carefully selected oysterfarms in the Northern East coast of US/Canada. With their outgoing personality, our Oystertainers know how to persuade almost anybody to eat oysters. The founder, Matijn Wijn, started the company 20 years ago in the Netherlands. He is driven by a passion for oysters and when he introduced Oystertainment® it was an overnight success. We also run oyster bars at world leading art fairs like Art Basel and TEFAF. Let's Oystertain you!

        If you have the opportunity to book Red Oyster USA for your event you 100% should! First off the booking experience was above and beyond with customer service, answering all of my questions promptly and with ease. My husband and I renewed our vows on a rooftop in New York City December 30. My husband and a lot of our guests enjoy oysters so I thought this would be the perfect addition to our reception! We had the pleasure of having Sophia as our Oystertainer for the evening. She was AMAZING!!! She was extremely friendly and helpful! I was not much of an oyster person before, but she had me try them a couple of different ways and I did find one that actually worked really well for me. If it wasn’t for her knowledge and guiding I probably would’ve never tried them and now I am a fan! The Oystertainer was really another amazing staple to our evening and I am so glad we were able to book them. I would book them each time I had an event if I was given the opportunity, I highly suggest you do the same!!!! You won’t regret it!!! Now I will have to wait until they expand to Oklahoma (hint,hint) to book again!

This includes planning, staffing and catering events for clients of all sorts and celebrations of all sizes. From small, intimate gatherings to large, elaborate productions, we bring professionalism, skill and care to each client project. Services provided by Great Performances include full-service, catering, beverage service, service staffing, venue selection, design and special event production.

        When you think of service with a smile, your first thought should be Great Performances. Starting with our initial correspondence with the CEO and Founder, Liz Neumark, followed by a personal call with Shaun Roberts, who took the time to hear about our vision and budget and then followed up with a list of potential venues, we knew this was the company we wanted to work with for our wedding. Shaun quickly connected us with Patty Scull (Director of Simplicity at Great Performances) with whom we developed a close working relationship. Patty and our event producer, Abby, were top notch professionals throughout the process. Patty and Abby’s infectious smiles and the teams’ love for the wedding craft made us feel at home and comfortable on this journey. Throughout the planning process they helped us find and select high quality rentals and supported us throughout the whole experience. On top of that, the food was amazing!! We went with a buffet style event and it exceeded our expectations. It was nothing like the buffet that you picture in your head. It was beautifully crafted and artfully staged. Not only was the food clearly made of fresh and high quality ingredients, but made with care. The short rib was juicy, the mashed potatoes were velvety, and the desserts were fantastic. Nobody at the wedding went home hungry, that's for sure. Not only that, but the team at Great Performances made sure to wrap up the small amount of leftovers for us to pick up the next day which was a nice touch. The wait staff was kind and helpful throughout the event making sure to cater to our guests needs and to take the time and make plates for us when we didn't quite have the time to do it ourselves. We would highly recommend Great Performances for any wedding or event. Their team is wonderful and their product is next level. We are so grateful we chose Great Performances for our wedding! We can’t imagine having gone with anyone else!
