The setup was smooth, her team was incredibly competent, and the bar was a major hit with the guests. While the food for this particular event was casual picnic fare, everything was served efficiently and on time. I've also had the pleasure of trying Renee's hors d'oeuvres at other events, and they were absolutely delicious - she's clearly a talented chef with a great sense for elevated flavors.

Steven Brown Caterers 
Rating: 5.0 (4 reviews)
  • Serves Rockaway Beach, NY

Serving the New York area since 1991, Steven Brown Caterers provides unmatched creative cuisine, professional service and exceptional value. Our individual approach means that our couples receive the personalized and dedicated touch they deserve for their big day! Our experienced team of event planners are extremely passionate about their work. Attentive and precise, they will make your vision, big, or small into a reality.

We had such a great experience with Steven Brown Caterers when we got married at the Picnic House. They were so easy to work with, friendly, proactive, and made everything seamless. Working at the Picnic House is probably not super easy because it's just one giant room but they made the prep stations invisible and it felt like they took up no space. Wedding food gets a bad wrap and I've had a lot of bland wedding food in my life but their food is delicious! We had people tell us about how much they enjoyed the food months after the wedding! The variety of items that they had to choose from was spectacular and they made this vegetarian bride feel included and like I had plenty to choose from. Would recommend them without reservation! So great!

We are committed to creating an awesome place to work while taking great care of each other, our partners and our guests.

Working with Evalyn, Cortney, and the team at Dish was a truly incomparable experience! I had the pleasure of getting to know Dish a few years back at my first job and had told my contact at the time, Bonnie, that I would definitely be back when it was time for me to host my big event - my wedding. After reconnecting with the Dish team, in particular speaking with Evalyn, we couldn't have felt more confident that it was the right fit for our big day. From the personalized menu, to the in house tasting, and the amazing day of coordinator, Cortney, the most important and expensive party we ever threw (and likely ever will) was in the best hands. When any changes or adjustments came up the team was eager to help make our vision come to life. A few weeks before when I wanted to do another itinerary run through, Cortney, was not just game, but so enthusiastic and supportive. As small things came up day of, Evalyn and Cortney were on it and as we were packing up, the whole Dish team helped us pack up and carry out our numerous flower arrangements. We truly couldn't have pulled this off without Dish and are so grateful for their partnership. Thank you, Dish!

Elm Roastery 
Rating: 5.0 (2 reviews)
  • Serves Rockaway Beach, NY

We are a Queens-based community roastery that brings craft hot and iced drinks to the greater NYC area. Started with a mission to build community at our brick and mortar in Elmhurst, we expanded to do mobile so that we can be a part of building community through the connection of coffee throughout New York, New Jersey and Connecticut.

We loved having Elm Roastery at our wedding! My husband and I have a long history of fond memories and treasured conversations shared over a coffee, and we are so joyful that Elm was able to bring this to life and help us share this tradition with our loved ones. A highlight I want to note in my review is how professional and kind their barista was. The coffee enthusiasts of our bunch had so much fun asking questions and learning about their workflow and craft coffee process. Our friends and family also really enjoyed trying drinks that they may not have tried otherwise, and had only great things to say about them! Plus, coffeecake3. We also found their offerings to be at a great value. Their communication, attention to detail, and rates make it clear that their heart and passion is in the coffee and connection. They made a custom menu for us and, in addition to standard offerings, had decaf, alternative milks, flavor syrups, chai, teas, and hot cocoa available. There was absolutely something for everyone! The Elm Roastery coffee cart would be a lovely addition to any gathering, but for us personally, it was also a great way to offer something fun and new drink-wise after a late lunch as we did not have alcohol at our celebration. If you are also looking at throwing a sober wedding (or any other kind of wedding), I would highly recommend and consider having the Elm coffee cart! Elm Roastery is a Queens gem and they added such warmth and joy to our day. You should 100% message Peter. Like right now. P.S. you can preview their coffee at their cafe in Elmhurst so you don't have to just take my word for it!

Jillicious Foods is an all-in-one catering and event company dedicated to creating inspired, authentic wedding, social and corporate experiences. For us, every client represents a unique opportunity to tell a new and delicious story. Chef Jill has been telling these stories for nearly three decades. We work in a variety of cuisines, from New American to Cajun to Southeast Asian; accommodate all diets, including gluten-free, vegan, vegetarian, and pescatarian; and are proud to partner with local farms and purveyors throughout the Hudson Valley and New York City.

Jill truly is THAT girl! From her keen eye for detail to incredible patience and personalization, from the start we knew our experience was going to be top notch. Jill worked with us to create a menu that spoke to all of our childhood favorites and tastes from home that had all of our guests watering at at the mouth, and some even bonding over what some of the dishes meant to us and our families. As a Miami native and Italian American (respectively), we wanted the food to touch on our love of Latin and Italian food, which Jill touched on perfectly (especially with the meatballs and empanadas!). From day 1, Jill was truly Team Shelby and Jordan, and for that we could not be more grateful.

Mellanee is a passionate culinary professional dedicated to creating unique dining experiences that cater to individual tastes and preferences.

Driven by a sense of purpose, Mellanee takes pride in her ability to nourish others through her cooking. She values the opportunity to collaborate with clients, ensuring that each dining experience reflects their vision and desires.

Chef Mellanee and The Fork Goes on the Left absolutely blew us (and our guests) away. We wanted an elevated take on African and Caribbean comfort foods, and she delivered beyond expectations. The crab cakes during cocktail hour were a hit (people are still talking about them!), and our sweetheart meal — a rich shellfish stew — was unforgettable. I genuinely wish I could have that meal again. What really stood out was Chef Melanie’s professionalism and care. From our private tasting( photos attached ) to day-of service, everything was seamless. Her communication was clear, her staff was friendly and attentive, and she worked so collaboratively with us — even down to helping with mixers for our bar setup. I have multiple food allergies, and her team went above and beyond to accommodate them safely without compromising on taste or presentation. And as a final touch, she surprised us with a thoughtful card and gift — such a sweet gesture that perfectly captured the warmth she brings to her work. If you’re looking for a caterer who delivers both flavor and heart, The Fork Goes on the Left is it.

Purslane 
Rating: 4.5 (8 reviews)
  • Serves Rockaway Beach, NY

Purslane is part of The Oberon Group, a Brooklyn neighborhood-focused restaurant group with a commitment to sustainability. We started Purslane in 2012 as a way to serve our community outside of our restaurants. Sustainability wasn’t part of our origin story, but we realized we had an opportunity to make a difference in one of the most wasteful industries out there. We are seasoned experts in executing corporate events of all sizes, ranging from galas and banquets, to private dinners, to multi-day conferences for hundreds of guests, to weekly lunch drop-offs for your whole office.

Awarded Best of Zola
Working with Purslane, and especially with Michaela and Justin, was a highlight of our wedding planning, and we feel incredibly lucky to have had such excellent partners in producing our event. The staff, especially Michaela and Justin, are responsive, friendly, accommodating, and professional; the space is gorgeous and beautifully maintained and operated; the food and drink were bountiful and delicious, and the service rivaled any of New York's fine restaurants. Best of all, the process of collaborating to make our wedding happen was easy and fun, and Michaela and Justin made us, the nervous engaged couple with a million things to manage, very confident that our day would not just go as planned, but would be a beautiful success. And indeed it was! Of all the people we worked with. Michaela and Justin deserve special mention. They are excellent communicators, responsive to the million questions and people that wedding planning entails. They are proactive collaborators, laying out a clear process and schedule not just for the day, but for the process of working to plan it. They provided useful, detailed documentation at every step of the way, including a very helpful list of recommended vendors. Every meeting with them was fun and friendly, but also productive, punctual and a good use of time. And of course, the food and wine tastings were delicious. Michaela and Justin were so helpful in giving us a sense of how the venue would perform in a situation we wouldn't get to experience until the day itself. They guided us expertly, making shrewd suggestions we might not have considered ("Since you have an open bar, we recommend choosing a heavier vegetarian entree.") My wife and I had a unique vision for our event, and these two not only assured us that it was possible, they worked with the park to accommodate myriad details, even down to the selection of lightbulbs. It's no exaggeration to say that without their help, the event would not have had the specific atmosphere we imagined, nor would it have been the roaring success that it was. All the confidence they inspired along the way paid off on the day, when Michaela, Justin, and their staff were a machine. The service was prompt, helpful, and invisible; the food was great, not losing too much in the translation from tasting to event; the wedding ran perfectly smoothly, with Purslane on top of the schedule, keeping the momentum of the night alive as they moved tables, served each course, operated the bars, and so on with perfect cadence. We are so, so grateful to Purslane for making our wedding a true dream come to life. Our only regret is not responding sooner to their lovely post-wedding thank you note, and for taking so long to write this review! To you recently-engageds with so many decisions to make, let me help you with this one: your search is over; just hire Purslane.

I cannot sing this company's praises enough! We heard about them through a friend who was thrilled with her wedding catering through JAN NYC, so we booked them to do my bridal shower. We were so pleased that we had them do our engagement party. Now they are doing our wedding! Nick Miller, the head of the company, is your point of contact, and his awesome personality will make you feel so at ease. I didn't have to lift a finger for either event, really. I told him some basic ideas for a menu and theme, and he ran with it. He had so many great suggestions to give in keeping with my vision. He's extremely thorough and plans everything out to the tee. We were amazed at how seamless and perfect everything turned out, considering we ended up making last minute changes and adding 15 extra people last minute! Most importantly, the food is delicious and the presentation impeccable. I was very impressed with the creativity! The guests were raving about the food from both events. There is a very big selection to choose from...and it is great that they so versed in simple comfort food as well as fancy cuisine. Nick is now doing my wedding because I know I'm in the best hands. He has been in the catering field for many years and I trust his expertise. Weddings are stressful and there are unpredictable factors when it comes to planning. Nick's organization and attention to detail is honestly keeping us sane while we plan this big event. He has been in contact with our other vendors and even got us a discount! I can't recommend highly enough. I will be back to give feedback after our wedding!

ONTHEMARC Events 
Rating: 5.0 (4 reviews)
  • Serves Rockaway Beach, NY

ONTHEMARC is a contemporary, full-service caterer with extensive experience in off-site catered events. The culinary experience is at the heart of everything we do. We handle every detail to bring your vision to life —from custom menus and logistics to staffing and artful presentation—creating an event where you and your guests feel truly celebrated.

As soon as we visited On the Marc for our food tasting, we knew that the food would be fantastic—and more on that in a minute—but OTM really set itself apart with the service. They greeted our guests with flavored waters when they arrived (hugely helpful for a mid-summer wedding), had servers ready with drinks and food as soon as cocktail hour started, prepared an appetizer platter for a quick private moment as newlyweds, and much much more. A few things stick out over all though: first, the servers were so attentive that they realized a friend of mine was absolutely smashing one of the appetizers and kept bringing those to her (even learning to take the mint leaf off as she did). Second, they rolled with the punches as we realized we may have screwed up some food placards, accommodating our request to check with each guest to make sure we had it right. Third, they had servers march out all at the same time to bring courses during dinner services, a super-professional touch which gave the service a white-glove-service feel. The food was delicious, and everyone kept commenting on it (even on the dance floor where they brought desserts!!). Overall, the food was amazing, the only thing better than the food was the service, and we highly recommend OTM to anyone considering them!

As a wedding planner many times I am managing vendors not only to confirm service but to prevent jeopardizing my clients event. Most of the time this can be frustrating especially when things are forgotten, coupled with many last minute changes, but not with Krisp Events. With Nora and Krisp Events I can close my eyes. It is important to be able to trust your vendors (especially Catering) without micromanaging. Their food is delicious, their staff is friendly, formal, and knowledgeable, and the administrative experience is seamless. Every event with Krisp, is a successful event.

Marlow Events 
Rating: 5.0 (4 reviews)
  • Starts at $16
  • Serves Rockaway Beach, NY

Marlow Events offers full service catering from the Marlow Collective, a group of New York hospitality brands including the restaurants Borgo, Diner, Marlow & Sons, Roman’s, Achilles Heel, as well as Marlow & Daughters, She Wolf Bakery, and Stranger Wines.

My husband and I are food people, and from the start, we knew we wanted our wedding to feel like hosting a large, intimate dinner party rather than a traditional catered event. Everyone says wedding food is never great—we took that as a challenge. Marlow Events ultimately delivered a meal our guests are still talking about (especially the carrots, and the She Wolf bread, which reached near-legendary status). When we began our venue search, food was our starting point. Through some Instagram sleuthing, we discovered that Marlow Events catered at Shell’s Loft—and given how much we adore their restaurants (Marlow & Daughters, Borgo, Roman’s), it felt like a natural fit. Once we confirmed they were fully integrated with the venue, it felt like a no-brainer. Our initial tasting was exciting and reassuring, and we felt confident moving forward based on the quality of the food and hospitality. We had a very specific vision and requested a few nuanced elements—specialty cheeses, particular preparations, and thoughtful details. Some of these were beautifully executed, others evolved differently than expected, but overall it was a collaborative process. On the wedding day itself, the food was excellent. Guests raved about the meal, the pacing was thoughtful, and the experience aligned with exactly what we hoped to create—warm, generous, and centered around great food. That’s what we’ll remember most. That said, future couples should be aware that Marlow Events operates under a unique contract structure, and fees can be higher than typical industry standards. While we had a wonderful experience working with our original contact, the later planning stages introduced some challenges—particularly around fee clarity and flexibility—which required more back-and-forth than anticipated. These conversations were not always handled with the same level of grace we experienced earlier in the process, and navigating them took patience. In the end, the meal and experience were truly special, and we’re grateful for the food we shared with our friends and family. If food is central to your wedding vision and you’re excited by a restaurant-driven approach, Marlow Events can deliver something memorable—just be sure to review the contract carefully and allow extra time for alignment in the final planning stretch
