  • Serves Salem, 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.

We were so grateful for Kelli’s kitchen at our wedding! They did an amazing job making sure all of our wants were met. They helped with beyond catering and helped us keep on our reception schedule, cleaned up everything and we even paid a small fee and they broke down all the tables and chairs! We still get compliments on the food served and the service itself! Kelli’s kitchen helped us enjoy our wedding day a little extra with the delicious food and peace of mind!

Gourmet Galley Catering 

5.0

  • Serves Salem, CT

We love weddings. We love them big and fancy or sweet and simple. We love brides who agonize over the size of their train, their pearls and their bouquets and we love brides who call up and say, “Let’s have a clambake at my dad’s beach house!” Celebrate everything—family reunions, birthdays, bridal and baby showers, anniversaries, retirement parties and just plain why-not? parties. Whether the whole clan is getting together for a long weekend or you’re having a sit down dinner for 20 just to honor some long and beautiful friendships, let us make the party that suits you.

We had a fantastic experience with Gourmet Galley Catering for our wedding. Their communication throughout the planning process was responsive, helpful and explanatory - they patiently answered all our questions and made helpful recommendations. On the big day, they went above and beyond to make sure we and all our guests were well-fed and hydrated amidst the busyness. The quality and taste of the food was fantastic - all our guests raved about it! Everything was delicious, well-presented, and clearly made from quality ingredients. We received so many compliments on the food. Gourmet Galley's exceptional service and delicious offerings were a huge contribution to making our wedding day special and memorable. We highly recommend them for any catering needs!

Keane's Wood-Fired Catering 

5.0

  • Starts at $6,000
  • Serves Salem, CT

Keane’s Wood-Fired Catering (originally named Boru Barbecue and Catering), was founded in 2016 by husband and wife, Padraic and Kaylyn Keane. They have brought together their love of wood-fired barbeque with fermentation and locally sourced products.

I don't even know where to begin - our wedding wouldn't have been the AMAZING event it was without Keane's! We will be forever grateful for their hard-working staff, delicious food/bar services, and of course KYM! Kym was my main point of contact from the beginning of my wedding planning - every single thought/question I threw her way, she had a helpful answer that was prompt and kind. We ended up having Kym add on service as a day of coordinator - and my family is still talking about how much of a rockstar she was. All of my guests that I interacted with that day, and now after, have commented on how lovely all of the catering staff was, and how truly great the food was. I am dreaming about the brisket meatballs, bluefish crostini and mac and cheese. I also had a guest who told me the bar staff made the best margarita they have ever had! We seriously cannot thank this team enough, and I just hope that I am lucky enough to go to another event that they are a part of. I wish I had photos to share of the amazing food, but just know that you will not be disappointed! THANK YOU!!!

They were very familiar with our venue and the other vendors that we used so they were able to make sure the night went smoothly and dinner was served timely. Liz set up my decorations exactly as I wanted (granted, there was not much) and the room looked beautiful. The staff and servers were excellent and extremely attentive to me and my husband all night.

Based out of Hudson Valley New York Promises Kept Events is a mobile catering service that offers a private dining experience to weddings and special events. This team of talented professionals is led by Executive Chef Brandon Grimila. They work with a focus on developing seasonal menus, creating delectable dishes from locally sourced ingredients.

We committed to Promises Kept as our caterer for our wedding before ever trying their food. And boy are we glad we did. Brandon, Fernando, Anna and the rest of the PK team did an absolutely outstanding job. From the get go, they were so professional, kind and accommodating. We are big foodies and were really wanting the food at our wedding to reflect our taste and for our friends and family to feel like they were at the best dinner party ever. We had a hard time narrowing down our menu from their extensive list of options as every dish sounded better than the last. Our jaws dropped when we had our tasting as the dishes were as amazing as they sounded. We have had so many of our guests tell us how incredible the food was at our wedding and how special it felt. We couldn't agree more. If you are looking for unique flavors, incredible dishes and utmost professionalism for a private dining experience whether it be a wedding or other type of event, look no further than Promises Kept.

Sunflowers Event Planning, Inc 

5.0

  • Serves Salem, 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.

BITE 

5.0

  • Starts at $10,000
  • Serves Salem, CT for additional fees

We really hate the word "catering". This word conjures all the worst least-common-denominator associations, and we believe that through our attention to craft & collaboration, our work attains an authentic resonance far beyond that of most service providers. We aim to work with and compose for, to express & celebrate our clients' & partners' personalities as best we can. but... Until we find a more poetic & succinct descriptor, catering is what we do. Our projects are equally balanced between private (weddings, birthdays, social gatherings), non-profit (galas, openings, fundraisers) and corporate (launches, fashion shows, meetings).

Scott and his team at BITE are extraordinary. He is deeply passionate about his craft, and together with his team, they are detail-oriented, possess phenomenal style, and have caches of patience. As a culinary industry professional, with cooking being what brought me and my husband together, we envisioned our wedding revolving around the dining experience. I intended to include personal touches in everything from the welcome spritzes to the passed desserts on the dance floor. While most industry professionals would understandably feel daunted by such a task, Scott matched my level of enthusiasm as if it were his own wedding. For every idea and whim I came to him with, he delivered with such grace that underscored how well he interpreted my taste. We planned our wedding for two and a half years during the pandemic, so there were many unexpected changes along the way. Ultimately, Scott guided me to make the decisions that would create the most cohesive event. To make a wedding feel opulent and yet ebullient is one of the rarest of abilities - Scott and his team achieve this with thoughtful, contemporary taste and a laser focus on the guest experience. There were fig leaves and rose geranium that Scott personally retrieved from my dad's garden and infused into the passed dessert bites and cocktails and an edible tablescape that emulated a Dutch oil painting. Guests continued to be awed by the beautiful first course of colorful, seasonal vegetables served individually in perfect unison. The main event was a standing rib roast ornamented with pheasant feathers and a shimmering salt-baked bass elaborately presented on vintage rolling carts, then served in traditional French-style service. Our ceremony was intended to take place in the private gardens of the historic General Theological Seminary in Chelsea, but an unexpected impending storm led to a change of plans. Scott recognized that the rain plan that our wedding planners contrived would not be feasible with the live band and dining table set up before it was too late. He rearranged every aspect of the day, starting with proposing a new ceremony vision that I was just as thrilled with, even though it meant his team would have only one hour to turn over the reception room. I can only imagine the complexities and back-and-forth that pulling off the culinary experience this event no doubt required. Yet, during the week of the wedding, Scott handled everything while providing emotional support every step of the way. Despite the challenges the storm brought, all the technicalities were impeccably executed, and our taste and vision for the evening came alive in the most enchanting way. Now, when I look at the pictures of our ceremony in front of the rose-adorned fireplace in the refectory room, it feels almost preordained. I can still hear Scott’s wise assurances, “It won’t always be what you wanted, but it will be exactly what you need.” Our wedding far exceeded what we envisioned and we credit all the magic to Scott. Thank you, Scott and the BITE team, for not just executing a fantastic meal we will always treasure but for also taking on the planning where it was so needed. Without Scott and his team, we never would have had the opportunity to live the moment so fully. xx Jillian Canaj
