About The Catered Affair

The Catered Affair

An unerring focus on three elements has driven our success: Brilliant food. Flawless service. Stunning venues. Thousands of our guests across New England have experienced this alchemy since our humble beginning in 1979. They’ve made us the region’s best-loved catering and event design company. We’ve come a rather long way from our beginnings, when founder Holly Safford set out with just a toaster oven and a glimmer in her eye. Today, with 300 employees and a 15,000-square foot headquarters, our focus is unchanged.

    From the moment we started planning our wedding, The Catered Affair was an absolute pleasure to work with. Their communication was always easy and clear, which made the entire process stress-free. The quality of their work was truly high end - the food they served was not only delicious, but also incredibly creative. Our guests couldn't stop raving about the amazing appetizers. We highly recommend The Catered Affair to any couple looking for an exceptional catering experience on their special day.

    We were thrilled with our choice to have The Catered Affair cater our wedding! Their communication throughout the planning process was simply the best - responsive, friendly, and professional. The quality and presentation of the food was Michelin Star level, with creative and beautiful plating that wowed our guests. The staff was attentive and excellent as well. From the amazing food options to the thoughtful touches like custom menus at each place setting, The Catered Affair contributed so much to making our wedding day special and seamless. My husband and I, along with all of our guests, were blown away. If you want the absolute best food and service for your special event, The Catered Affair is it - we cannot recommend them highly enough! Special shout out to The Meghans for making our day the best, truly they are the dream team!

    I could not have imagined a better team to help our wedding day vision come to life. Our coordinator was on top of every detail and the food was exceptional. We are so grateful for all the details and customization that TCA was able to make come to life for us. Our experience was exceptional and we cannot recommend TCA enough!!
