Chef Ellen was absolutely incredible! She cooked a 3 course meal for a bachelorette party that I was throwing for my best friend. The food was delicious and Chef Ellen made the evening so fun! She was interactive and had us entertained all evening. I recommend her to anyone looking for a private chef.

Kelli's Kitchen 

5.0

  • Starts at $55
  • Serves Hamden, CT

It is our mission at Kelli’s Kitchen to provide you with a wow factor through the elegance of our food, and the excellence of our service. Kelli has been cooking for over 20 years teaching her homeschooled children and their friends how to cook a wide array of culinary delights, from simple, tasteful appetizers to mouthwatering entrees. In that time, Kelli found her joy and artistic ability through food. That same creativity and hospitality is emanated through our food and staff to create a personalized, unforgettable experience at your event.

Kelli catered to us for our June 2024 wedding. The team flowed so effortlessly together between hors d’oeuvres, entrees and desserts. Our cake was AMAZING! Such a unique flavor: blueberry lemon lavender. They provided us with buffet style—honey glazed salmon, chicken cutlets, string beans, and a salad with this phenomenal home made dressing!!! Favorite dessert was the mini cheesecake bites. The rustic decor and naked styled cake was exactly our vision. Kelli was very attentive to our needs from checking in while I was getting ready and providing drinks and hors d’oeuvres and guiding us through the transitions of the wedding. We got rain towards the end of the evening and the team did such a good job covering and moving tables and decor around. We didn’t have to lift a finger. They cleaned up fast at the end too. Kelli’s kitchen is the quickest yet most organized catering service we’ve ever had! Thank you Kelli and team for making our night so special and tasteful!

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!

When it came to curating the perfect dining experience for our wedding, Chef Munah and her team exceeded every expectation and then some.

She worked closely with my husband and me to craft a menu that celebrated the richness of our cultures, blending flavors and traditions into a meal that was not just food but an experience—one that embodied the warmth, connection, and joy we wanted our wedding day to reflect. Her attention to detail was impeccable. From planning to execution, her professionalism, creativity, and passion were evident every step of the way.

My family and friends are still raving about how it was the best wedding food they’ve ever had—a sentiment echoed over and over again in the days and weeks since. The love and intention she poured into her dishes made every guest feel like part of a beautiful, shared story. Choosing Chef Munah was also meaningful to us as we were thrilled to support a woman-owned business. She embodies grace, resilience, and immense talent, and it was an honor to have her as such an integral part of our day. If you're looking for someone who will not only serve food but also bring heart, artistry, and community to your table, look no further than Chef Munah. She is a gift, and her work is truly unmatched. From the bottom of our hearts, thank you, Chef Munah, for making our wedding day so special and memorable. You and your team are simply amazing!

Sunflowers Event Planning, Inc 

5.0

  • Serves Hamden, 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.

We had Butterhead swing by to cater a party for us and they were great! Their food was a hit, everyone loved it. We were happy with their friendly service and we would definitely hire them again. They had a cute set up and they cleaned up afterwards, which was really nice because that allowed us to enjoy the party without worrying about cooking or cleaning.
