Forest Hills, NY
  • Starts at $20

Saffron Soirée is a boutique catering company specializing in elegant grazing boards, grazing tables, and handcrafted appetizers for weddings and special celebrations. I love creating beautiful, flavorful spreads that bring people together and add a special touch to life’s meaningful moments. Each order is thoughtfully curated with fresh ingredients and a strong focus on presentation. Saffron Soirée is best suited for intimate weddings, showers, and smaller gatherings where details matter and food is part of the experience.

“Pooja made the grazing table for my bridal suite, and it was honestly one of my favorite parts of the whole wedding morning. Walking in and seeing everything so beautifully arranged immediately set the mood. It felt special, elegant, and just so thoughtfully done. Not only did everything look gorgeous, but it also tasted amazing. You could tell the ingredients were fresh and that a lot of care went into every detail. My bridal party kept going back for more, and everyone was asking who made it. What I appreciated most was how easy Pooja was to work with. During a time that can feel stressful, she was calm, organized, and reliable, which meant so much to me. She really helped make the morning feel relaxed and joyful. I’m so grateful we chose her, and I would recommend her to anyone planning a special event. She truly adds something memorable to the experience.”

Elm Roastery

  • Serves Forest Hills, 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!”

From tailored event design and innovative food presentation, explore the possibilities and make your own rules!

“This was a second wedding, and we wanted it to be our way. Because we have NEVER had a bad meal at a Stephen Starr restaurant, we immediately decided to use Starr Catering. Best decision ever. We worked with Brittany Glover, who was professional, accommodating, and understood that we wanted an outstanding food experience, both for us and for our guests. We also wanted a pescatarian/vegetarian menu, which we thought would be a bit of a challenge; but Brittany gave us so many options that it never even registered that we didn't have meat. The planning was so much fun, the tasting dinner was spectacular, and we didn't have to think about a thing at the wedding itself. The catering was breathtakingly beautiful, and SO DELICIOUS. Our guests absolutely swooned over the food, and are still talking about how wonderful it was. The presentation was superb, the service outstanding, the open bar with a signature cocktail (Aperol spritz) was fantastic, the burrata bar at the cocktail hour killed, the hot stuff was hot and the cold stuff was cold, and the integration of other one-off requests of ours (one relative wanted light beer, we used a favorite baker for the wedding cake, Eric likes good rye, etc.) was seamless. Honestly, we wouldn't have changed a thing. We would use Starr Catering again in a heartbeat. It's our second anniversary today, and we're so grateful to Starr Catering for helping us have the wedding we wanted. T”

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!”

“We could not be happier with Tasty Creations Caterers, we used them for our wedding in Brooklyn of 125 guests. Joe's food was incredible (received so many compliments, some saying it was the best wedding food they've ever had!) and he and his team were so helpful in getting things ready day of. We were a little disorganized and Joe jumped in at every chance he could to lend a hand, even helping us when we got locked out of one of the bride/groom suites. He helped with some last minute cake decorating adjustments, and probably did so many more things day of I (the bride) don't even know about. The whole team was smiling, helping, and celebrating with us the entire event. Susan was amazing with all my questions (of which there were many) leading up the wedding, answered in the speediest fashion every time, and was so informative. What a wonderful team!! So many things come included with the price, hors d'oeuvres, linens, glassware.. which is so hard to find! And we got all our rentals through them, so easy to just have all in one vendor.

“For my son and daughter-in-law's wedding at Greenpoint Loft in the spring, we hosted 170 guests and ultimately chose Melody and the Eventfull team. We started our search over a year in advance, and Melody immediately stood out. Over the course of what must have been a thousand emails, she remained exceptionally responsive, positive and accommodating to every unique idea we proposed. Her extensive experience and deep familiarity with the nuances of Greenpoint Loft—a beautiful but raw and empty warehouse space requiring everything from ovens to tables to be brought in—were invaluable. Melody navigated our complex culinary vision with ease. Late in the planning process, the couple decided on appetizers from their favorite Korean restaurant and dinner from a preferred Italian spot. Melody took complete charge of this logistical challenge, coordinating directly with the restaurant chefs to manage food quantities, delivery timing, plating, and presentation. Her ability to oversee the kitchen and timing for external vendors was truly incredible. Beyond catering, Melody managed all rentals—including tables, linens, servingware and silverware—and flawlessly executed the bar setup with our provided alcohol. Her team handled every detail, from setting tables with name cards and menus to diligently tracking guest food allergies. The day was seamless thanks to Melody’s proactive communication with our other vendors and day-of wedding coordinator. The entire staff was professional and efficient; a special thank you to Nico, who ensured the wedding couple and our families were well-attended to throughout the evening. Melody and her staff truly went above and beyond. Knowing Melody was in charge allowed me to fully relax and enjoy the celebration. She and her team made the planning process enjoyable and the execution flawless. I cannot recommend Eventfull highly enough.”

“We couldn't have had a better experience working with Nick and his team for our wedding welcome party. Nick is a true professional. Not only is he personable, but he cares deeply about creating the perfect spread for the occasion, catering to guest preferences, location/venue, and vibe. Nick worked calmly and diligently to curate a perfectly diverse menu that our guests raved about all evening and into the next day. He was also more than willing to work within our budget and did so with ease. We never felt pressured to spend beyond our means and also never felt that our budget would require us to compromise on guest experience. In fact, we were shocked at the delicious and abundant offerings we were able to serve our guests in light of our constraints. We also cannot say enough positive things about Nick's team, especially bartender, Miguel. Miguel ensured our guests were well taken care of all night, refilling drinks without being prompted to do so. Our guests commented many times about his professionalism and positive disposition, serving guests with a smile. We also, unexpectedly, extended our event by two hours because our guests were enjoying themselves so much and Miguel had no issues accommodating our last minute change. Finally, in addition to arriving on time (despite the sudden torrential downpour that struck the city an hour before Nick's team was due to arrive at the venue), Miguel cleaned the venue before leaving for the night, leaving it exactly as he found it. We highly recommend Nick's team for any event, big or small, and will absolutely use them again. The food was delicious and the service was delightful.”

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.

“We couldn't be more thrilled with the catering service provided by Bartleby & Sage for our wedding! From the initial tasting to the final course, everything was absolutely perfect. The team went above and beyond to ensure that our guests had an unforgettable dining experience. First off, the tasting was a breeze— Leslie made us feel so comfortable and guided us through the menu options, offering thoughtful suggestions based on our preferences. We appreciated her flexibility and creativity, helping us choose a menu that reflected our personal tastes. On the big day, the food was a standout. The presentation was elegant, and the flavors were out of this world! Our guests couldn’t stop raving about how delicious everything was, from the appetizers to the main course to the decadent desserts. The staff was attentive, professional, and made sure everything was served at the perfect temperature and with impeccable timing. One thing that really impressed us was how seamlessly everything was handled. The catering team was discreet yet efficient, making sure the flow of food didn’t interrupt the festivities but still keeping everything on track. It was clear they were highly experienced and took great pride in their work. Not only was the food outstanding, but the overall service and experience were top-notch.
