We could not recommend Emily's Catering Group more! Our wedding was August 25, 2018 at South Farms in Morris, CT. People say the food at your wedding is one of the most important and memorial parts of your day and it's true! People are still raving about the food they had at our wedding till this day and the fantastic service by the ECG's team! From the very first point of contact Rick and his team were extremely attentive. Cheryl would answer our emails within 24 hours (which for a bride planning a wedding is SO impressive!) The tasting we had was intimate and Rick walked us through the process of what our guests experience would be like the day of our wedding. The passed hors d'oeuvres were never ending during cocktail hour-- our guests we're SO impressed and FULL of delicious tasting food they were wondering how they would be able to eat during dinner. Rick and his team brought my charcuterie table dreams come to life! There was specific staff members from the ECG's team that were in charge of basically following us around during our event to make sure we had all the food we ever wanted and a drink was always full in our hands. It was so refreshing to feel so well taken care of on our special day. We are so happy we chose Emily's Catering Group for our wedding day and we continue to use them to cater all of our events. They are the best of the best!

I don't have enough words to express how incredible, amazing, joy-filled, and phenomenal my event was, thanks to Noire Chef Boston. The team's care and attention to detail transformed a lunch for people I adore into an unforgettable and delicious meal that we still talk about more than two years later. What started out as a pre-holiday afternoon meal turned into a moment of renewal, connection, fellowship, and delight. This is the powerful alchemy that Noire Chef unlocks each and every time.

Justine was extremely efficient, professional and wonderful to work with. The food was phenomenal and the plating and details were all perfect! She went out of her way to procure adorable candles, printed menus, flowers and napkins all to match the theme of my sister’s party! I would absolutely reach out to her in the future for any events - large or small! The food and experience left an extremely positive impression!

My fiancé and I, along with both of our families, met John and Julie this past Saturday for our tasting and the experience was nothing short of incredible. The food was delicious, featuring Mediterranean style seasoning, fresh proteins, and veggies, and everything was prepared and cooked to perfection. They prepared a special dessert for us at the end and it was to die for! I’m still thinking about it 2 days later. Outside of the amazing food, you could tell John and Julie truly care about making your special day memorable, making sure everything runs smoothly, and really getting to know the couples they work with. We ended up booking with them and can’t wait to have them with us on our special day!

We could not have been happier with our experience with Shale Hill Events. My husband and I were fairly clueless at the start and Brianne immediately put us at ease and helped us plan out our wedding day, ensuring zero stress and a wonderful day. Brianne met with us several times to discuss food, timing, what she amd her team would need from our venue, and was very helpful working within our budget. On our wedding day, we didn't have to worry about a thing. Brianne and her staff set up everything wonderfully and our guests absolutely loved the staff. The food was truly incredible!! I had multiple guests tell me it was the best food they ever had at a wedding, and we could not agree more! From the passed hors d-oeuvres all the way to the late night bites, the food was melt-in-your mouth delicious and we were so happy with how everything turned out. If you want amazing food, incredible service, and a stress-free day, I cannot recommended Brianne and the staff of Shale Hill Events highly enough!!

To start let me say I've been in the food industry for a long time a good portion of that being in the carering/wedding industry, and coming from experience i knew how stressful planning a wedding would be. My wife and I decided to go without a planner and do it ourselves. I have known Georgio for many years and when it came time to plan the wedding there was no question on who I was having cater the event. I've always known him to be very adventurous and passionate about his craft but never to the extent that he generously showed my wife and I. Georgio and his team guided my wife and I through all stages of the process with ease and made us feel as comfortable as possible during the planning. Now the event itself was truly outstanding, he and his staff were so professional, hard working and meticulous. When it comes to a wedding your guest will forever remember two things the music and the food, now my music was absolute top notch the food stole the show. A family style feast was prepared for my guest and let me tell you I'm still getting calls and messages about the food. So to sum it all up LuShe'ann catering should be at the number one spot on your list for future events.
