Say YES to Palms Plaza Catering!

I got married last weekend in Brooklyn, NY, and used Palms Plaza for my off-premise wedding catering (they’re based in Matawan, NJ). While planning our wedding, my now husband and I knew that food was one aspect of our wedding day that we did not want to mess up. I can 100% say all of our guests were blown away by not only the amount of food offered, but by the quality of taste and service provided by Palms staff. So many of our guests (many of whom traveled from all over the country) complimented the food and said they had to pace themselves during cocktail hour because they were excited for dinner. On top of that, my guests really appreciated the prompt and polite service of Palms staff, along with the beautiful presentation of food during cocktail hour and dinner. Aside from their stellar service, I would be remiss if I didn’t mention this…Palms traveled from NJ to northern Brooklyn and executed a flawless catering event in a space they’ve never worked in before. Allen, Margo, and their team are true professionals who can execute outstanding events outside of their premises. Our wedding day truly wouldn’t have been as special as it was without Palms Plaza, and I know our guests had a wonderful experience because of their team. If you’re looking for wedding catering, or any event catering, look no further than Palms Plaza!
