Where do I even begin with Danielle and My House Events?! When I tell you worth EVERY penny - I really mean, worth SO MUCH MORE! MHE was recommended to us through our venue and we couldn't have been happier with the choice we made having them as our wedding planner. Danielle started off by giving us a consultation and run down of the different tiers we could go with and since we weren't local to New Orleans we opted in for a full planning service. We had monthly calls that turned into bi-weekly calls closer to the wedding and she would keep us on track with where she was at in the process and where we should be thinking ahead for any vendors or options we would need to decide on. When we came and visited for our tastings and HMU trials, she was so warm and helped us get around to each of our vendors. We also had a beignet bar vendor, which was catered through My House Events. Our guests loved that touch and it was a great dessert/late night snack for the reception. I could really go on and on about how amazing she is and how worth having her it was, but you should definitely find out for yourself! Thank you Danielle, and MHE!

We hired My House Events for our Los Angeles based wedding to provide appetizers and month-of-coordination. We loved everyone from the My House Events staff and how accommodating, kind, and experienced they were. It was great having them be part of our day because they truly made the event run smoothly and brought in so much expertise to make our vision come true. We loved that we got to try out a variety of options before settling on our final 3 appetizers. Chef Sami and Simone were warm and helped us through the process. The food spoke for itself! Our guests gave us great reviews on the taste, presentation, and the speediness in which it was delivered during cocktail hour.

Ariana was an excellent coordinator- she saved our butts by bringing in her outside knowledge of what an event needs in order to make it through the final stretch. We felt as though everyone, Chef Sami, Ariana, Simone, and the wait staff were there to help us and to create a good vibe. It was wonderful- I think hiring the My House Events team was one of the best choices we made as we planned our wedding.

Whether you are looking for a caterer or a coordinator, I’m happy to tell you you’ve found the best there is. You’ve done it! Your search ends here and I’ll tell you why. My House Events is a mission-based company focused on “uplifting chefs and creating meaningful opportunities for economic and creative growth” all with a spotlight on diversity and representation. I invite you to visit their website and read their full statement. It is this philosophy that drew us to them.

My partner and I connected with them and had just one quick call with a representative who asked us what kind of food we were looking for and asked whether or not we’d like coordination assistance. We asked about month-of coordination and said we were looking for Cajun cuisine. A bit of a left field pick to be honest, so we thought maybe it would be hard to find. She knew immediately which Chef in their portfolio would be the best for the job. She connected with Chef Bri who came up with a perfect custom menu in only a couple days. After a budgeting conversation they were very receptive and went out of their way to make adjustments and offered varying options to stay within budget. What we landed on was exactly what we were looking for and fit perfectly within theme for what we wanted our day to be. After confirming the menu, we paid the deposit and then planned the tasting.

At the tasting we met Simone, who was our day-of food service coordinator, and Chef Bri. Let me tell you, I’ve been saying it since the tasting and I will say it until the day I die. I would go to war for that woman and her cooking. The entire tasting and we had ZERO notes. Found out she was actually on Top Chef! Everything was perfect and delicious and it was maybe one of the aspects of the wedding we were looking forward to the most. Made all the better because it felt like we made a genuine connection with them both. They delivered in a major way.

Come September we met Kaylene who handled our month-of coordination. She was incredible. When planning, I am a person who needs lists and deadlines and after explaining to her what my needs were, she lined up everything in a way that made planning very easy for me. It was helpful to lean on her for vendor communication and if I missed anything, she was very quick to help me stay on top of it and gave me every tool I could have asked for. On the day Michelle was our on-site contact. Both her and Simone were exceptionally detail oriented, talented, and kind. They made us feel like goddamn royalty. Knowing I would be taking photos after the ceremony, I asked them to make sure they save some fried mac & cheese for me from our past appetizers. A staff member brought me a whole tray and said “Chef Bre said this is just for you!”

Not only did my guests talk about the food non-stop (They’re still taking about it a month later!), they also complemented the coordinator which I think happens much less often. Everyone was very impressed with her and that is the caliber you’re getting with My House Events. My only complaint is that the Cajun pasta was SO good that my guests completely cleaned it out of the buffet and there wasn’t any leftover for me to take home! Please give them a call. They will find the best food and give you the best care and they will go out of their way to make your day or your event blow your expectations out of the water. The most special thing about them is the work that they do to elevate their team and the care they take to give you exactly what you dream.
