Tara B. Sent on 02/14/2024Chris & Joanne are the best!!
Having east end events catering was the best decision we made for our wedding day. From start to finish Chris and Joanne were incredible to work with. Our day went off without a hitch, from the incredible maitre d Jane to the servers & bartenders they were all beyond perfect. Any request we had they were able to fulfill no questions asked. If they’re available for your wedding book them immediately. We hired them for our fall wedding at rgny, they executed everything perfectly the set up, the food, service everything was 5 stars. Our guests are still talking about how amazing our cocktail hour and dinner was. Jane our Maitre D was the most accommodating, anything we needed she was there, her bubbly personality made us feel at ease all day. Definitely request Jane for your wedding day! The servers were dancing around the room serving dinner they were so kind & friendly. The bartenders I can’t begin to say enough good things about, they made sure everyone had an extra good time! all of Chris and Joanne’s staff are incredible. Thank you all for making our wedding day perfect! -

We had our wedding at Duck Walk Vineyard in Southold. Chris & Joanne were super easy to work with. Throughout the whole process, Joanne was super responsive and would answer most questions within minutes. Chef Chris goes above and beyond to help in any way he can - they both have a lot of connections on the North Fork and do not hesitate to make an introduction or ask a question on your behalf. Chris helped us bridge gaps between both our venue and our tent vendor and is always in your corner throughout the whole experience.
In terms of the food and staff, the best of the best!! We could not be happier with the taste of everything - our guests were seriously impressed. The staff including our day of coordinator, Jane were extremely helpful! We would recommend over and over again! -

My husband and I cannot say enough great things about Joanne, Chris, Jane and their staff!! Joanne was extremely responsive to our emails/questions and a pleasure to work with from start to finish. We were getting married at Greenport Brewery and were nervous because this was obviously not a typical wedding venue. They had us in to try many different plates and every single one was amazing. Joanne and Chris took the time to sit with us and go over little details and gave us helpful advice before we even booked with them. We felt confident right after that initial meeting. We went with the trilogy option and everyone loved that they got to taste everything instead of having to pick just one option.
Jane was our AMAZING maitre'd and went above and beyond the day of and even in the weeks leading up to the wedding. Jane thought of every single detail and made sure everything went smoothly the day of the wedding. She has a great personality and sense of humor that made us feel calm and relaxed and the bridal party and guests absolutely loved her as well.
A month later and guests are still telling us how amazing the food was (particularly the butternut squash ravioli at cocktail hour that I'm still so sad I missed!!). Joanne, Chris, Jane and the rest of the team did an amazing job with not just the food, but helping us with so many little details that day and I'm sure with so many things that we weren't even aware of. We are so thankful they made our day unforgettable and we would HIGHLY recommend them to everyone!East End Events Catering's reply:

They saved my wedding day!
I don't know how to begin to express how incredible Chris and Joanne are. My original wedding caterer cancelled less than one month prior to my wedding for 150 people at a venue that required complete customization. Every chair, tray, fork, knife, etc. I was required to bring in and my wedding simply wouldn't have been possible without them. They truly go above and beyond to make your day incredible, and most importantly stress free. The attached photo shows Chris literally wiping the floor during a band break. Their staff set up all of my beautiful tablescapes, welcome stations, etc. Chris also set up my entire ceremony after an issue day of with the rental company. Aside from how above and beyond they went, the food was incredible. I married an Italian so my guests take food very seriously and the positive feedback was resounding. Chris and Joanne truly saved my day and blew every expectation out of the water. We are immensely grateful to have found them! -

Chris and Joanne of East End Events Catering were absolutely phenomenal! There are not enough good things to say about this duo. They went above and beyond when catering our wedding and they made the entire process seamless and easy. Not only are they experienced, professional, honest, and TRUSTWORTHY, but their food is OUTSTANDING too! We could not recommend them more! Everyone at the wedding was so impressed by them as well! -

Great Food! Great Service
Chris, Joanne, and Tina were wonderful! They spent time with us to create the perfect menu and layout! Everyone is still raving about the food and service at our glamorous backyard wedding. Chris even brought a beautiful driftwood "Love" sign that everyone was taking pictures with and it helped with our wedding theme. They are wonderful to work with, and quickly responded to any questions we had in planning everything last minute during COVID. They made us feel safe and comfortable and made our wedding event so beautiful and intimate. They made our dreams come true. Thank you! -

2020 brings a lot of challenges to wedding planning, but East End Catering was able to address everything and throw us the wedding of our dreams.
Chris and Joanne go above and beyond what is asked of them. They immediately make you feel at ease with their amazing personalities and professionalism. After meeting with them once you will feel like old friends and will be excited to plan a wedding with them. Unlike other vendors they actually try to help you save money without compromising the big day. Not only were they awesome, but they had the inside scoop on what other vendors to use too. Our guest raved about the food all night long and the service staff Chris and Joanne brought were outstanding.
My wife and I would absolutely recommend East End Catering to all our friends and family. -

JoAnne and her husband are true professionals at what they do. With very little notice they put together a wedding we only dreamed of. We selected a menu and did not have to worry about anything else. Their staff was top notch and Jane the Maitre’D was keen on the little details making our ceremony and reception perfect. Our guests went on and on about not only how great the food was; but how the service and coordination was better than the best catering halls they have been to. It doesn’t get any better than them; they go above and beyond to ensure you have smile during the planning of your event and very long after. Cannot say enough how much they meant to the success of our day. -

What can I say about Chris and Joanne? They did the right thing by us during the entire planning process and truly delivered for our wedding. Their prices were also exceedingly reasonable and affordable, like beyond reasonable. They were incredible to work with and we would recommend them to ANYONE who has any kind of even to host.
First of all, not only do Chris and Joanne run a restaurant and cater, but they also will help you (greatly) with the wedding planning process. When we first decided to get married out east, they had us over their restaurant and presented plate after plate of delicious food (drinks, too!) where we talked about our vision for our wedding. This wasn’t even an official tasting. Then, Chris proceeded to drive us to different vineyards that we may be interested in for our wedding. Once we decided on one, Chris and Joanne also helped us by recommending vendors, who were also awesome and very reasonably priced. Since we did not get married in a traditional hall, so many people asked us if we were getting a wedding planner. With Chris and Joanne, we did NOT need one.
So, about the food. Delicious! And so much! I come from a traditional Italian family and they raved about the stuffed clams and the pasta--not an easy feat. While selecting our menu, Chris and Joanne kept letting us add on and making suggestions for what else to include, at no extra cost. People still talk about our cocktail hour. My husband and I were busy schmoozing during it, but the staff constantly made sure we had food and drinks in hand. We also did not do a traditional sit down dinner, we did a buffet, and they did an amazing job. As an added bonus, people, especially the kids at our wedding--for whom they did not charge us AND made special kid-friendly plates--loved the s'mores pit. Our guests also made room for the Kobe beef sliders and pigs-in-a-blanket from the food truck at the end of the wedding. (I’m convinced they saved me from a hangover.)
It takes not only admirable business owners, but an incredible staff to make an event run as well as our wedding did. Their staff is exceptionally professional and warm. Everyone was extremely accommodating, efficient, and friendly. Fantastic to work with. They set up the wedding beautifully. They even put out corn hole on the lawn outside the vineyard. They also provide a day-of-planner. Jane was ours and she was absolutely outstanding. I could NOT have enjoyed our wedding day as much as I did without her. She was incredibly receptive, open, and hilarious from our initial meeting and went above and beyond to help us plan. You should see the texts and e-mails between us. She even mapped out the table placement for the seating charts--lifesaver! I don’t think my wedding day could have been possible without her. We truly were in good hands.
Finally, they will come to your rescue--no problem is unsolvable for them. Around four weeks before our wedding weekend, we had an issue with our rehearsal dinner--which ⅔ of the wedding guests attended--and had to completely shift gears. When we contacted them, asking them if they could also cater our rehearsal dinner at the new venue, they responded immediately and even made a menu with options that would be different from our wedding. (Their chocolate cake was seriously one of the best desserts I’ve ever eaten. It tasted like a chocolate shake in cake form.) The last-minute change was extremely stressful for us, but once we knew Chris and Joanne were involved, we felt so much better.
To conclude, use East End Events Catering for your wedding or any event. They are exceptional in every aspect!
