My husband and I truly loved working with Purslane for our outside Hampton wedding. The food was delicious, from the hors d'oeuvres to the entrees to our trio of desserts. We had many people saying after our wedding that it was the best Branzino they've ever had. We also really loved the team. We loved how accommodating they were in creating our package and how smooth the on site team was the day of. One of my favorite parts of planning the wedding was our tasting with Purslane. Overall, can't recommend them enough.

From start-to-finish, our main representatives from the Prospect Park Boathouse were beyond responsive, making any question or scheduling done with ease. Elena became our main point of contact early on and was always prompt with scheduling necessary meeting to discuss wedding decisions, providing us with necessary catering vendor information and meeting invitations, as well as consistently updating our event contract and event order to reflect any discussed alterations. Elena was prompt at following up with other vendors, making sure my husband and I had various appointments and wedding details established such as picking linens and dinner + glassware, selection or Purslane menu tasting and official wedding day meal selections, etc.

Beauty of the Boathouse aside, the Purslane catered dinner was a unanimous hit with all of our wedding guests. From our vegan and gluten free family/friends to those that ate the main meal being serviced, every guest could not stop raving about the food. My husband and I made selections for the Spring 2024 menu (as it changed seasonally) and we selected hors d’oeuvres: Avocado Toast with Goat Cheese; Potato Croquettes; Prosciutto Skewer. For dinner, the following was served family style: bread basket and olive oil (starter) ; cheese tortellini (starter) ; arugula fennel salad (starter); hanger stake (entree); ny steelhead trout (entree); roasted fingerling potatoes (side). Purslane was able to provide a completely nut-free wedding with all of the food prepared due to severely nut allergies for some of our guests, as well and plates vegan and kids meal options for select guests. My husband and I kept telling guests that the food was somehow even better than when we tired it at our tasting! Lastly, the catering at the Boathouse initially included a trio of mini desserts, but Purslane was beyond accommodating to our request for no dessert due to us providing our own outsourced catered wedding cake, which allowed for some of the catering fee to be surprisingly reduced!

From the amazing food I just detailed to the bar and coffee/tea station provided, Purslane created an extra layer of comfort and elegance to our wedding day that my husband and I are forever grateful for!

I hired Purslane very last minute because I love some of the restaurants in the Oberon Group, and they absolutely exceeded my hopes for the event. They were able to translate my scattered ideas into an elegant, smoothly-run event in such a stress-free manner that I was actually able to relax and enjoy the afternoon myself! My guests were absolutely blown away. From the start, they were able to take my requests and offer suggestions and edits that really elevated the whole event. Despite the limited timeframe they managed to pull together a team that worked together so seamlessly, you would have thought we'd given them months to prepare. I cannot recommend them highly enough!
