Emily's Catering Group is the best! Rick is an incredible chef and visionary for a good party! Our guests couldn't stop raving about the BLT station, cocktail hour spread, and the dinner itself. Several guests commented on how nice it was so have salads served immediately upon sitting down. These little details are what set ECG apart. Everything went so smoothly - from our initial call with Rick, to our tasting with our parents, and all of the communications in between with Cheryl - Emily's Catering Group is so professional and thorough. We were able to focus on having fun and enjoying our guests - it was obvious that that they could handle any situations that came their way, even in an outdoor cook tent at a family home! Would give even more than 5 stars if we could!

We had the pleasure of attending a tasting last night with John, Julie, Cathy and Gerard. From start to finish they were hospitable, fun, attentive and knowledgeable in everything that John has to offer. The food- AMAZING. There was so much flavor for every single item we tried. They answered all of our questions but also walked us through what’s included and all of our options. It was an exciting environment and the staff's personalities flowed perfectly with our family. My fiancé and I ended up booking John’s catering service before even leaving the kitchen. We are SO excited to have Tailgate Gourmet at our wedding. John offers such a unique experience with far beyond reasonable prices. If you’re on the fence, don’t be! Book him! John is so kind and hilarious!

Rooted in creativity and committed to excellence, we’re not just here to plan your event—we’re here to make it memorable.

Plan it to the T has done it again. We ordered Thanksgiving Dinner for 15 people. We arranged to pick up our order on Thanksgiving Day because we are living in a smaller space, so we needed “day of” pickup. The food was packaged well and heating instructions were provided to ensure all items would be served hot. When it was time to eat we were completely satisfied. You know the food is a hit when your guests go back for multiple rounds. We’ve recently moved, so having food catered made sense for us this year. I won’t be able to use that excuse next year, but between my husband and I, it really is a no brainer to consider having Plan it to the cater for holidays and other special occasions. I appreciate the warm hearts of the team, their professionalism, their creativity, and the skill/expertise. We will continue to recommend this service to others every opportunity we get. Bon appetit!!

Stuf'd 

5.0

  • Starts at $65
  • Serves Newington, CT for additional fees

As a kid, Rebecca could be found in the kitchen cooking with either her Mom or Grandma. Traveling to Albany was always a treat, as her favorite dish to eat was Nan's French toast. While studying at NYU, Rebecca came up with the concept of STUF'D to fulfill the need for a savory French toast, as it was yet to be done. She decided to start the business as a food truck in 2016, as a way to keep her brand more mobile. Since then, we have evolved into a full-service catering company, offering a variety of sandwiches, sliders, and cocktail bites, and serving events that range from weddings and birthday parties to large-scale events!

There are so many great things to say about Rebecca and the entire crew at Stuf’d. Stuf’d catered our wedding in Highland, NY, and they were absolutely amazing. First and foremost, the food was delicious—our guests couldn’t stop raving about it and loved the wide variety of sliders and appetizers. The entire team at our wedding was incredibly friendly, helpful, and even joined us on the dance floor — such a blast! From day one, Rebecca was the most communicative, thorough, and responsive vendor I worked with. As a bride with a full plate, that level of support was beyond appreciated. She answered all of my questions, accommodated a few changes to the menu, and was truly a delight to work with from start to finish. I highly recommend Rebecca and the entire crew at Stuf’d for any of your catering needs. Many, many thanks!

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!!

Sunflowers Event Planning, Inc 

5.0

  • Serves Newington, CT for additional fees

With more then 25 years experience we find that listening to every bride and or client describe what they want for their special day or event is what it takes to be successful. It's what you want not what we want. Creativity is a strong characteristic and I enjoy the final product. It's simple. When the clients are happy I know we were to their expectations and that's all that matters at the end of the day.

We hired Sunflowers for our daughter's back yard wedding on Sept 12, 2020. Once Chef Laura and her crew arrived (hours before the event), they took over and I knew I was in good hands. Chef Laura was a pleasure to work with and also provided excellent guidance during the planning stages. The appetizers, passed during cocktail hour, looked and tasted great. All of the food during the buffet dinner was also excellent. The bar was well stocked with everything we needed for our crowd, which enjoys their cocktails. The crew were professional and responsive and kept everything clean during the party. Because of their hard work, I was able to enjoy the day! I will definitely call on Sunflowers for future events and would recommend them highly.
