Hands down the best and easiest vendor to work with! I can’t recommend them enough, Elysian Events truly went above and beyond to make our day so special. First and foremost - the food was absolutely delicious. We were so impressed by the amazing menu options, it was very difficult to choose because everything sounded so good! We heard nothing but rave reviews from our guests about how impeccable the food was. We had several guests who were vegan and gluten-free. Elysian Events gave us numerous options on their menu to choose from, and also worked with us to swap ingredients around to be more GF/V friendly - like tortilla chips instead of pita in the hors d'oeuvre or making sure the dressing on the salad was vegan friendly. It was so important for us to provide a delicious meal to our guests with dietary restrictions, Elysian Events made it so easy! Amelia is a rockstar. We were on a tight budget and I did much of the planning and coordinating myself. Amelia walked us through everything and quickly responded to all of our questions, big and small - from catering options, to menu signage, trash, making sure we had a stand for the cake, and more! Elysian Events also went above and beyond to accommodate us with a regional wedding tradition. In my part of Ohio we have a cookie table tradition, where the family makes dozens and dozens of cookies. In my case my mom and Aunt drove about 600 cookies down! Elysian Events not only helped by supplying trays for the cookies, but to tray them and set them out once dinner service was complete. I’m so grateful for how incredibly accommodating they were and how seamless everything was. I can’t recommend them enough!

    While I am sure Chef Adam can make great meat dishes, we did a vegan/GF wedding meal because we wanted everyone to be able to enjoy a full meal. Everyone still RAVED about the food. Adam gave us really exciting options before our tasting. We picked ratatouille, vegan cream cheese grits, and root veggies. We added focaccia for those who could eat gluten. We did vegetarian passed apps - highly recommend Adam's red bean hummus and devilled eggs.

    Jacques Imo's 
    Rating: 5.0 (3 reviews)
    New Orleans, LA

      Since 1996 Jacques Imo's has been one of the hottest tickets in New Orleans for anyone looking for 'real Nawlin' food. Jacques imo's gives the unique food you are looking for that makes your guests keep talking about your wedding food months or even years later!!!

      We used Jacques-Imo's for our wedding catering and bar service in March 2017 and I cannot recommend them enough. Not only is Monique (and the rest of the team) outstanding and easy to work with, the food is amazing and you're sharing a piece of New Orleans history with your guests. In fact, our wedding guests still comment on how great the food to this day. It's also incredibly special to be able to celebrate your wedding anniversary at the restaurant and be reminded of your wedding in the years to come.

      Boucherie 
      Rating: 5.0 (1 review)
      New Orleans, LA
      • Starts at $20 per person

      Boucherie is a wedding catering business based out of New Orleans, Louisiana. Specializing in preparing Southern-inspired meals for happy couples in and around the Big Easy, this company delights in complementing receptions with their distinctive dishes. With years of catering experience, this seasoned team is passionate about seeing newlyweds enjoy their favorite foods. All that is required of you is to tell them about your dream wedding meal, and they will work diligently to bring your ideas to fruition.

      For our wedding we tried to stay away from the whole "wedding industrial complex" and work with real people, who provide real services to normal people. Boucherie, is first and foremost a great restaurant. We did a full restaurant buy out for our rehearsal dinner, and people from NY, Cali, Chalmette and New Orleans were all thoroughly impressed. The same was true of the food the night of the wedding. They crushed it. Sara, was an absolute joy to work with. She's a straight shooter which is I appreciated. Additionally, she went out of her way to make it special, to work with us, and to improve upon what we asked for. Her team the day of was great. Pro Tip: Charcuterie Board was a show stopper!

      Mirepoix Event Catering 
      Rating: 5.0 (1 review)
      • Starts at $3,600
      • Serves New Orleans, LA

      I have a strong passion of seeing my client's and guests enjoy themselves at a celebration I am a part of helping them create. I strive on flawless events and easy bookings for all clients and events

      I would highly recommend Nole' Events and Mirepoix Catering. Racheal Apken handled every detail beautifully from ordering the cake, cookies, and flowers. The food was delicious and plentiful from the passed Hor Devous to all 4 live food stations, and all the chefs and workers took special precautions for my son's food allergies. The venue was perfect, a beautiful place to have a cocktail party or wedding. Racheal handled all the details to make the party extra special for a beautiful couple. Being the host, all I had to do was show up, greet the guest, and have a great time.

      • Serves New Orleans, LA

      Growing up I have always been a person whose enjoyed great food. My aunt would always take me to 5-star restaurants in Beverly Hills. I never thought I would turn out to be a great cook, but my friends always seems to enjoy it. I met my husband in college and he played football, his favorite thing in the world was food. We now have three children and my favorite pass time is creating a great cuisine full of flavor. Growing up in California by way of Louisiana, Mexican, Soul Food, and Southern Cuisine are my most valued dishes.

      Doni was such a pleasure to work with. Very ease going, clean and the food was absolutely amazing. Everything that the clients asked she didn’t hesitate to please. I love collaborating with Doni in events and think she’d be wonderful for other clients.
