Fusion Events 
Rating: 5.0 (4 reviews)
Los Angeles, CA
  • Starts at $30
  • Serves California

I founded Fusion Events to answer a call that I heard. It was that feeling that I could found a business that would push boundaries and allow me to deliver what my clients wanted. Food and Events that are Fresh, Bold, and Memorable.

I don't even remember how many came up to me at the wedding to compliment the food, but it was a lot. They all started with “usually wedding food isn’t great, but ALL of the food has been so good.” ALSO, when we sat down for dinner Felicia brought us a plate of apps because we were too busy during cocktail hour to have any and she wanted to make sure we got some too. I loved that so much, just so thoughtful. So thank you Fusion catering for a great wedding experience.

"WOW!!! If referrals are what you want, you can count on us for that!!! Where do I begin? 1. The service? EXCELLENT, OUTSTANDING, TOP RATE 2. The food? INCREDIBLE, 5 STAR, SCRUMPTIOUS, OUT OF THIS WORLD 3. Professional? YOU ARE A PERFECTIONIST, YOUR TEAM IS AMAZING, SPECTACULAR Each of our guests have commented on how wonderful our reception was. They all went on and on about how great the food was, Your dedication to making each event you cater absolutely perfect was obvious from the first day we met, but when I learned that it was your daughter's birthday the same day as our reception, you blew me away! I know you were throwing her a big party on Sunday, but you were with us instead of sending someone in your place. You are a consummate professional. Again, from the bottom of my heart, we THANK YOU, we appreciate the incredible job your team did and we will always use you and refer to anyone in need of a caterer.

Founded by Food Network winning Chef Shieya, The Kookery is a craft catering company focused on making your dream wedding experience a reality. We specialize in curating menus as unique as you! We collaborate with you and your vendors for a perfect experience down to the smallest details.

Awarded Best of Zola
How can I even begin to describe the greatness that is Chef Shieya and the Kookery and how wonderful she made our wedding?! It started off with planning mode. With an American and a Brazilian getting married, we wanted to have a dish from each culture to make it special for our guests. With a sea bass dish and the steak picanha, everyone could choose. The sous vide steak was so tender, cooked to perfection, the color on it so beautiful, it was the winner. We had a few vegans at the party, and she took care of them ahead of time and knew exactly where they were sitting and who they were. And as always, Chef wanted to kick it up a notch, so she got some black truffles to really make the dishes pop. The full course meal from the watermelon salad to squid ink pasta to the main courses to the wedding cake she made herself was decadent, super tasty, and plated like a million dollars. Aside from the food being perfect, Chef Shieya and the Kookery team delivered a professional experience like no other. From setup to breakdown, they had it handled to where we didn't have to worry at all. The team arrived early in the morning. We went up to go get ready and change for the wedding party, and by the time we came back down they were already completely set up and serving guests. There are so many attention to detail things we didn't even think of, nor did we have to because they already knew what we needed, even though we didn't. So many touches that just made everything run so smoothly. We didn't have to do a thing, and all the guests were taken care of. People still talk about how good our wedding reception food was, saying it was the best they've ever had, better than the regular boring standard food at other weddings. Our special day was made so much more magical because of Shieya and her team. She does everything only to perfection, and even goes a step further to make it personal and unforgettable. Thank you from the bottom of our hearts!

I had my first shot at managing a sushi restaurant when I took over an empty section of the family restaurant and introduced sushi to my customers.

I quickly learned that it’s not just about having fresh fish anymore. Sushi dining has transformed into a culture. A culture built by imagination and creativity.

Border Grill Catering 
Rating: 5.0 (6 reviews)
Los Angeles, CA
  • Serves California

In 1985, Chef/Owners Susan Feniger and Mary Sue Milliken debuted the first Border Grill as a small, forty seat “taco stand” on Melrose out of a deep affection and appreciation of the Mexican kitchen. Effortlessly blending their classical culinary training with conscientiously-sourced ingredients, and regional recipes inspired by home cooks from Oaxaca to Mexico City, street vendors in Tijuana, and taco stands along the Yucatan and Baja coasts, the award-wining chefs continue to evolve their California-inflected Mexican-inspired cuisine.

Hiring Border Grill for our wedding was hands-down one of the best decisions we made! From the moment we did our tasting at their Santa Monica location, we knew we were in excellent hands. Taylor was an absolute gem—helping us craft a thoughtful and inclusive menu that catered to everyone, including vegan, gluten-free/celiac, and nut-free guests. Her guidance, patience, and attention to detail made the planning process so easy and enjoyable. On the big day, the service was phenomenal. The buffet was not only delicious but also beautifully labeled with dietary information, which so many of our guests appreciated and commented on. It’s not often that guests go out of their way to compliment the food at a wedding, but ours did—repeatedly. Everyone was blown away! The churro tots were a total HIT. People are still talking about them! We also used Border Grill for bar service, and everything ran smoothly from start to finish. The staff was professional, friendly, and totally on top of everything—including helping get the venue ready and making sure the entire experience was seamless. We truly felt cared for and supported by the entire team. If you're looking for a catering company that delivers on every front—delicious food, amazing service, and genuine kindness—Border Grill is it. We can’t recommend them enough!
