Wonderful Caterer
We loved having Seedling and Sage as part of our day. We felt so happy with the quality and the pricing. We loved working with Julia. The food is delicious and the service is great. The planning process went so smoothly. I’m so glad we chose them! -

Amazing!
Maria even went out of her way on the wedding day to calm my nerves. She goes above and beyond for her clients and we couldn’t have picked a better caterer for our day! Highly recommend, you won’t be disappointed! -

Incredible group to make our magical day even better!

Incredible catering company!
Seedling & Sage did an incredible job catering our wedding!! The food was delicious, and they were so on top of every detail.

Amazing service and even better food!
Seedling and Sage catered our wedding in Malvern, PA in October and it was executed flawlessly! I originally chose Seedling and Sage because they had the best reviews of any catering company around and now I see why. From the very beginning, Monica helped us plan out our dream reception meal. For our smaller wedding size, we opted to choose a more European dinner style where the courses weren’t timed, but more free flowing with the evening. Monica made us feel totally at ease with the feasibility of this idea and the staff executed it so well on the day of! Not only did the staff execute the organization of the day amazingly, the food was absolutely divine! Many of our guests have told us that it’s the best food they’ve ever had at a wedding, which was absolutely our focus! We are so thankful to Monica and the staff at Seedling and Sage for helping to make our wedding dreams a reality! The kind, thoughtful, and experienced staff truly made our planning and wedding day so smooth and easy! I would absolutely recommend them to anyone! -

Incredible experience with catering for home wedding
Seedling and Sage catered our home wedding for ~170 people. Maggie Rhamy was our point of contact and she was so incredible! My family had some modifications to the food after the tasting, and she was flexible with managing many of our specific food requests to get to something we were really happy with. The team absolutely blew us away the day of. They set up everything perfectly and we had so many compliments on the food and service. We can't thank Maggie and the team enough for an incredibly memorable wedding! -

They sure made this Type-A bride happy!
We got married at Morris Arboretum, and hiring Seedling and Sage as our caterer was the best decision we could have made. Not only was the staff EXTREMELY organized and helpful throughout the wedding planning process (mind you, this is coming from a type-A bride!), but the day of my wedding could not have gone better. My guests were raving about the food and staff was kind, professional, and on schedule. I would 10/10 recommend! -

Best wedding food ever! (Merion Tribute House, 4/20/24)
We picked Seedling and Sage to cater our wedding because of their experience in catering vegan weddings. We are not vegan, but we had multiple vegan and vegetarian guests, so we figured if they can make a fully vegan wedding, they can definitely handle fish and chicken, and they certainly can. The food was the best we've ever had at a wedding and the service was top notch. Our vegetarian/vegan friends said the black bean enchiladas were the best entree they've ever had at a wedding. It was the best night of our lives and Seeding and Sage played a big role in making it special. Maria was our point of contact and she did a great job with customizing our menu and scheduling a private tasting since we couldn't attend the regularly scheduled one.
Definitely get the tartlets. -

Seedling and Sage Catering
We booked seedling and sage to cater our wedding. Every experience from start to finish exceeded my expectations. I loved the opportunity to sample the food at the food tasting. It was so helpful that Maggie (event coordinator) communicated excellently and was able to accommodate any and all last minute insane requests from my family. We had the best day and have to say the crew from Seedling and Sage was a big part of it. They were attentive and thorough, which made everything run smoothly. Everyone loved the food (including us bc the staff made sure we ate and drank)! -

So Thankful for S&S
We don’t have enough wonderful things to say about Seedling and Sage. They are by far one of the best catering companies in the wedding business! Not only is the food delicious, but the customer service they provide is unmatched. We got married in the Fall at the Morris Arboretum and our wedding planner from Seedling and Sage, Maggie, was an absolute gem. She went above and beyond to ensure that everything for our very special day was perfect. We unfortunately had the challenge of rain on our wedding day and Seedling and Sage was able to turn our entire outdoor ceremony/cocktail hour into an amazingly beautiful indoor event. Because of them we got to enjoy our wedding day and we were able to easily manage all stressors with their expert help. I can’t imagine my wedding day without them. -

Seedling and Sage was absolutely amazing from start to finish!
Wow - we used Seedling and Sage for our wedding in June, and they were absolutely amazing from start to finish! We worked with Annette, and she was a dream! Very responsive in her communication, she even came out to do a site visit before the wedding to understand the space and our vision for the day. She was so friendly, helpful, and really wanted to make our day tailored to us. She worked with the chef to make a couple of changes to the menu to accommodate our tastes and she helped me pick out the most beautiful place settings and linens that made the whole room shine and feel extra special! We have heard from multiple guests how great the food was - from the appetizers to the entrees - everything was delicious. But even beyond the food, with the multiple months of preparation and organization that goes into planning a wedding, having a caterer like Seedling and Sage by your side to make you feel confident that the food will be amazing, you haven't forgotten anything, and the day will run smoothly, was the biggest blessing of all. I went into my wedding day at ease, because I knew it was going to be great, but it was even better than expected. I can't thank Annette and her entire team enough!

Seedling & Sage was amazing!!!
We just had an early September wedding and S&S was our caterer! The food was absolutely amazing, the entire team was so professional and they helped with coordinating all rentals as well (furniture, linens, silverware, etc). Monica was our direct coordinator throughout the planning process and she was extremely attentive, always answering our thousands of questions quickly and kindly. Highly recommend this team!!! -

Didn't disappoint!
We hired S+S before the pandemic hit, and went for a much smaller wedding on our new date because of space limitation. S+S was very accommodating to our new plan, and was very creative constructing our new menu. They made our day extra special by providing amazing service, delicious food, and such elegant and beautiful display.
Coordination was easy and they basically took care of everything including set up, break down, and rental, and worked smoothly in combination of our day-of coordinator. Not to mention that their sustainable vision matches our low-waste plan and we are very happy to have worked with them. I would definitely recommend S+S to anyone that values the dining experience on their wedding day! We definitely would use them again for parties in the future if possible.-

AMAZING!!! Best decision we made.
I cannot say thank you enough to the team at Seedling and Sage for making our wedding day absolutely perfect! Hire them now! My husband and I had to replan our wedding four times due to the pandemic. Our original venue didn't work out, which left us to hold the wedding in my father's backyard within a month's notice. I reached out to Darcy about catering and from our first conversation she eased my very nerves right away. THANK YOU! Darcy's professionalism and attention to detail made our very short planning process easier. The food was AWESOME! We were so happy that we had the opportunity to have their food. Our guests could not stop talking about the chicken and waffles and cheese steak cigars. The salmon and chicken were cooked perfectly. Also, their cornbread is some of the best cornbread I've ever had in my life. Ann, our captain was the best! We couldn't have been happier. Than you so much to whole team! Hiring Seedling and Sage was the best decision in our wedding planning process. -

Great service and food
We had a 20-person wedding on short notice, outdoors, in the midst of Covid concerns. S&S worked with us to find the menu we loved and delivered as promised on wedding day. It was hot, and the entire S&S staff was professional and worked hard from start to finish. Kate Winters was our coordinator and on a hot afternoon, she never stopped making sure that we and our guests were happy. Food is top-notch. -

The Best Decision We Made
Seedling and Sage was hands down one of the best decisions we made for our wedding. I actually find this review difficult to write because I don't know how to express all of the effusively positive things I have to say about them without sounding like I got paid to write this (I promise I didn't - although Seedling if you want to send a chicken and waffle bite on a stick this way, I won't be mad! :) Darcy was 100% professional from start to finish - my wife and I both remarked more than once on this sort of intangible quality she has to make you feel totally assured that everything is under control - and make you believe it (because its true - its under control). And given how involved wedding planning can be, that sense that someone else is entirely capable and you can really lean on them to deliver is such a blessing.
My wife is a vegetarian and I am not, and my family is from the south while hers is largely from the north east so we had some widely ranging taste buds, and Seedling was willing and able to accommodate, coming up with a beautiful autumnal bbq menu that catered to many different tastes. We were able to tweak and customize and make it exactly what we wanted it to be.
The communication throughout the planning was 10/10 - Darcy was clear, concise, and quick to reply or reach out of if there was information she needed from us. She came to an in person walkthrough of the venue, met some of our other vendors, and again just made us feel like we were in great hands.
The day of honestly went better than we could have even thought to hope - the tables looked absolutely breathtaking, the stations were lovely, the food was delicious (we had friends and family remarking on the h'or de oeuvres for a week). And the staff...wow. I mean literally to a person, they were kind, gracious, hospitable, and warm. The captain for the evening, Ann, was wonderful. She kept things on time, ensured the food was hot, the service was crisp - she was great. I just cannot say enough good things about the entire experience. I would hire Seedling and Sage for any event I ever needed catered, in a heartbeat. They were worth every penny and more.
A huge thank you to Darcy and the team for making our wedding magical. -

Beyond Yummy
Our food was AMAZING at our wedding. Seedling & Sage is the new in-house cater for Flourtown Country Club as of the spring. From our tasting to the final product - everything was perfectly prepared.

5 Stars Isn't Enough
Words absolutely fail to express our love and gratitude towards the Seedling and Sage team.
We were put in contact with Darcy last August when we booked our venue and for the past year she was honestly the super-glue that kept our sanity together. No matter how long the email or how ridiculous the question or request, it was met with a quick response and above and beyond accommodation.
We were excited to read reviews about how delicious their food was, and at our tasting our expectations were blown out of the water. The unique and delicious seasonal options had my wedding guests raving all weekend.
On the day of our wedding our breath was taken away by the performance of the Seedling and Sage team. Our captain, Jamie, made sure the night went off without a hitch. My wedding guests (many of whom work or have worked in hospitality) kept bringing up how spectacular, friendly and efficient the event staff was.
Our hearts are so full of warmth and thanks towards Seedling and Sage for making our day special as it was. THANK YOU, THANK YOU, THANK YOU!!!! -

Great food!
I would highly recommend them for weddings! Seedling and Sage was the exclusive caterer at Flourtown Country Club. They have many delicious farm to table options for food. All of our guests were raving about the food. Maria was great with helping us plan all the little details of our big day. Maria also made sure everything ran smoothly on our wedding day and had all of our items packed up and ready to be taken home at the end of the night. She really helped to make our special day just that! -

Amazing food and service
Working with Seedling and Sage was a highlight of my wedding and the planning process. The food is unquestionably amazing-our guests loved the cornbread and the entrees, and Seedling and Sage were super accommodating with providing vegan options. We could not have asked for better food at our wedding. The best part of working with this company, however, was the quality of their customer service. From day one, our coordinator, Gabi, was responsive and accessible. She was very open minded towards all ideas and provided guidance when necessary. This greatly helped in easing the stress of wedding planning. I highly recommend working with them-my now husband and I could not have asked for a better caterer! -

Delicious food and amazing staff!
Choosing to work with Seedling & Sage as our wedding caterer was probably one of the best decisions we made. We knew we wanted an outdoor wedding and chose the venue almost immediately. We quickly realized how much more planning goes into an outdoor wedding at a place that doesn't have a permanent tent, tables, etc.
We worked with Darcy through the planning process, and she guided us through everything, including a recommendation for a tent company that was fantastic. She was so responsive leading up to the wedding; from the food tasting to the site visit, we knew we were in good hands with Seedling & Sage.
We had looked at other catering companies that charged so much more and offered so much less. Unlike the other catering companies we were considering, Seedling & Sage took care of the table and chair rentals, the bars, DJ booth, and the place settings. It made our day so much easier not to have to coordinate with so many different vendors.
On the day of our wedding, the staff was fantastic, so friendly and attentive. The food was delicious — we had so many guests comment on how tasty it was and how different it was from typical wedding food. Dinner was served family-style, and the chefs were able to accommodate dietary restrictions, ensuring all of our vegan and gluten-free friends and family were taken care of.
At the end of the night, the staff packaged up all of the beer, wine, and liquor we had provided. The centerpieces were lanterns and votives we had brought, all which were also packed up with so much care. This allowed us to continue onto the afterparty with our friends and family and made the clean up the following day a breeze.
We absolutely recommend Seedling & Sage and are so glad we chose them to be a part of our special day!-

August Wedding
Seedling and Sage catered our daughter’s wedding at Fontill in Doylestown in August. From the moment we met Darcy from S + S my daughter and I knew we were in good hands. Darcy helped us along the way with all the important details about the wedding and was upbeat and always responded promptly to our questions and needs. The food was delicious and all our guests raved. Molly and her servers were courteous and caring to our guests. One vegetarian guest told me that it was the best vegetarian meal she ever had at a wedding.
Thank you Seedling and Sage!

Amazing Food and Service at 50th Birthday Party
Seedling & Sage catered my Mom's 50th birthday party and did such a fantastic job. The food was absolutely amazing, their staff was so accommodating, friendly, and flexible, and their table decorations were beautiful. The whole planning process and event were made all the more enjoyable by working with them. The event was fairly small, and we were turned down by other catering service because of the small size of the event, but Seedling & Sage gave us the attention and service we were hoping for! I highly recommend them. -

Look no further .....
Seedling and Sage helped to make my wedding about as perfect as it could have been. Gabi was amazing to work with and Molly and her crew were professional and courteous. The service and attention to detail really made everything go off without a hitch. Our wedding was a small event in comparison to most weddings and receptions but Gabi never treated it as if it were unimportant. We were also trying to do most of the planning from Virginia but we always felt like we were in good hands.
If we are ever asked for a recommendation for caterers in the Montgomery County area, Seedling and Sage will be the first name from our lips. Thank you for everything!

The whole crew from Seedling and Sage were fantastic from start to finish! We worked with Gabi, and Seedling and Sage provided catering, including tables and chairs for our outdoor wedding. Gabi and her team were great from pre-planning through the end of the night on our wedding. Gabi was thoughtful and careful to ask about other vendors they would be interacting with. Our wedding was outdoors at a unique location (not typically rent out for weddings) and Gabi and her team did a wonderful job scouting the site ahead of time and ensuring we would have the power infrastructure we would need so that everything would go off without a hitch. The food was delicious, and customized for us (we had them prepare a trout that was not on their typical menu, and we had them prepare a couple individual dishes for guests with dietary restrictions). The service staff for the wedding were kind, professional, and thoughtful enough to snag a plate for my wife and I as we talked with all our friends and family. All this, at a price that was more affordable than other well established caterers we looked into. -

Seedling & Sage catered my daughter's bridal shower at my home. It was a wonderful experience. Everyone loved the food. Seedling & Sage helped me plan the party from the food to the layout. They took care of the furniture rental, delivery and pickup. They did all the prep and clean-up. I got to concentrate on the party. They were there the whole time serving, keeping me informed and the guests happy! -

If you are looking to book a caterer for your wedding or any other event, do not look any further! Impressive, professional, delicious and beautiful are just a few of many words to describe our experience with Seedling and Sage. My husband and I worked with Darcy on our wedding. She was an absolute pleasure to work with. The entire planning process went extremely smooth - including all the last minute changes/additions. Our tasting was perfect, it felt like we were old friends with Darcy from the minute we sat down. Then, in what seemed like a blink of an eye, our big day was here. Darcy and the entire staff was nothing short of professional and attentive. There was not one detail that they didn't think of. Guiding guests to their seats, handing out glasses of water to the guests as they were heading to the ceremony site (it was a hot one!) and ensuring dinner ran very smooth. Our dear friend made our cake and because of the heat the icing started to melt, they offered to flash freeze the cake to ensure it would still look beautiful. And now, to dinner. Oh my goodness - DELICIOUS! We went with the BBQ option - the chicken melted in your mouth, the pork sliders were a hit, everyone loved the mac and cheese, the pasta salad was out of this world, the green beans so tender and yummy - I could go on and on and on! My new husband and I even got to enjoy full cocktail hour where drinks were being served and the appetizers were being handed out all around. Darcy made sure the bridal party got our own trays of appetizers as well - (there was NO way I was missing out on the caprese sliders and chicken and waffle skewers!) Even the display was perfect! The waitstaff was amazing in ensuring everyone was fed and waters filled and the bartenders were awesome behind the bar! Darcy and everyone who worked our day made the biggest day of our life wonderful. Thank you will never be enough from us, I recommend Seedling and Sage a thousand times over! Xo

We had a wonderful experience with Maria and team . The quality of the food was outstanding - pecan chicken and filet got rave reviews from our guests . Maria is wonderful to work with and very detail oriented. She even drove out of her way to pick my special request of macaroons up . I can’t say enough about this caterer- highly recommend them. -

I can't say enough about Maria and Seedling & Sage! When we originally booked Fonthill for my daughter's wedding reception, they had a different caterer; we were thrilled that Seedling & Sage became Fonthill's new caterer. As soon as they took over, they communicated quickly and answered any question that popped up. But the best part was working with Maria, who was absolutely wonderful!! She emailed my daughter and me regularly just to check in, she was patient and helpful when we asked her questions or for advice, and she really listened to us. She made some great suggestions and went with us to meet Darlene at BucksMont Party Rental to pick out the tablescape items. The guests all raved about the wonderful cocktail hour in the Carriage House with the delicious food, about how beautiful the tent was, and how the dinner was 5-star restaurant quality rather than banquet-like food. We loved that the food was farm-to-table and that during our tasting at Seedling & Sage several months before, Maria and the amazing chef listened so carefully to and followed through with our little tweaks. Throughout the reception, Maria was there, serving meals, checking on the people sitting at the bride & groom's table to see if we needed anything to drink, taking many, many pictures (which she sent to us), and then making sure she and her crew got together everything from the reception that we had brought and needed to take home. Bottom line - there is no way that we and our guests could have had such a fun time without Maria & Seedling & Sage. She allowed us to be guests at our own party, and we are forever grateful to her. -

Friendly, attentive, professional and most of all fun! My guests kept commenting on how amazing the food was and that they kept getting more! Working with Seedling & Sage was a smooth, pain-free process that both my husband and i appreciated. They accommodated our change in the menu with no fuss at all and were excited to create the hand pies we asked for, which were better than we could have dreamed!! Truly, they are amazing to work with and I couldn't have asked for better to people to be a part of my wedding! -

I looked over Seedling and Sage’s website in the beginning stages of looking for a caterer and thought they’d be out of my budget. Melissa talked me through some different options and made it work. Thank god she did. They were amazing. They had done events before at The Barn of Forestville and they had so many great suggestions. They were available to talk every time I called. They were kind, professional, knowledgeable and DELICIOUS! Highly recommended! -

This is the second time I used Seedling & Sage to cater a beef ‘n beer. The food is always amazing and Melissa and her staff do a great job making the buffet tables look festive and rustic. I would definitely recommend them for catering! Melissa is so easy to work with and she will make sure your event is perfect! -

We had Seedling and Sage cater our wedding this past summer. I am vegan and my husband is vegetarian, and S&S was totally accommodating with a providing a fully vegetarian, mostly vegan meal. They pulled out all the stops, and made a customized menu for us without increasing the price, as the other caterers we spoke to would have. We also had a few guests who are gluten free for medical reasons, and there was plenty for them to eat as well. Everyone loved the food, and we were really impressed at how well they did vegetarian and vegan food, despite that not being their exclusive focus. The service was exceptional, and they were very pleasant to work with. They even did a beautiful job setting up a dessert buffet, despite the fact that the desserts were from a different bakery. We would absolutely recommend them! -

We order from Seedling & Sage for many of our office functions / lunches and the service and quality is excellent! Their menu is just a little different, which makes it special. Everyone at the office LOVES when Seedling & Sage caters for us. There are always great compliments about the freshness and taste of food and there's always plenty to go around too! The delivery is prompt and they are always very friendly. So glad to have them close by! -

We had a wonderful experience with Seedling & Sage for our wedding!! From the beginning they went out of their way to work with us - even making a special trip to our venue so they could be listed as an "approved" vendor. Working with Emma was delightful - we feel like we need to schedule another event just to work with her again!! :) Several guests commented to me that "your caterer is really on top of things!" We received SO many compliments on the food during the wedding - I even had a guest tell me 5 days later that they were still thinking about the steak! They worked with us to accommodate special requests and we couldn't have had a better experience - highly recommend!! -

I cannot say enough good things about this company. Specifically about our caterer, Emma Bytnar. She is the absolute best. At every step, she went above and beyond to find us special deals, price different rentals, and get us the specifics of the menu that we wanted. She worked ceaselessly, responding to my emails up to five or six times a day in the final weeks before the wedding. Emma constantly had our budget in mind, but never made us feel like we were getting an inferior end result. She and her team even got there extra early to set up our beautiful centerpieces, guest book, bathroom items, etc in addition to prepping the food for our reception. I believe that she goes the extra mile for all of her clients, and I will recommend her to everyone I meet. Request her! The food was also to die for! We got rave reviews from all of our wedding guests (old, young, and extremely picky)! There is not a single bad thing on the menu, and I plan on getting their catering for every future event I have. Honestly, I am pretty picky but I have no complaints about the planning process, service, or food provided by this company. They are the whole package. They are simply the best, and created a beautiful, seasonal menu for 200+ people that was still in our modest budget! -

Seedling and Sage did an incredible job catering our wedding. We originally considered them because they were one of our vendor's preferred caterers, and I am so happy that we did. First of all, they are a great value. We spoke with a few other caterers, and no others were able to customize our menu or optimize our budget the way Seedling and Sage did. Every other caterer basically just showed us different tiers of pricing, while Seedling and Sage talked with us about how much we could spend and what was important to us in our menu, then created a menu that worked. They also provide tons of great decor - the bar, tables, and signs at our wedding all looked fantastic, and we didn't have to worry about any of it. Second, the food - if you choose them to cater your wedding, don't be surprised if my wife and I show up as wedding crashers, because we would absolutely love to eat another Seedling and Sage meal. We were shocked by how much food we got for the price, and every single thing was delicious. Multiple guests told us how impressed they were, especially by the short rib sliders and the salmon. Third, and most importantly, all of the people who work at Seedling and Sage are friendly, accommodating, kind, and easy to work with. Maria, our day-of coordinator, helped us with every little detail and made everything feel easy. She was ridiculously accommodating - we were living on opposite coasts while planning our wedding, and on more than one occasion, Maria had phone calls with us after 9 PM Eastern time in order to make our crazy schedule work. She helped us make sure our menu would be okay for a guest with severe food allergies. When we had some family change their RSVP from no to yes the week of the wedding, she rolled with the punches like it was no big deal. When it seemed like our outdoor wedding was going to get rained out, she stayed calm and reassured us that the rain plan would still be great. When it turned out to be sunny, she made the original plan work -

OMG is all I can say. Seedling and Sage is fantastic. They catered an engagement party for me for my daughter in June. They guided me every step of the way...menu selections, displays, decorations. I literally had to do nothing except enjoy the day. Every morsel of food was exquisite . The staff members were wonderful and stayed more than an hour later than contracted time. Setup, serving and clean up were completely handled and beautifully so by Seedling and Sage. In addition, I have ordered my Christmas dinner filet from them...cooked to perfection...and I have also purchased BOGO's from them...all have been fantastic! I was in attendance , as well, at their Tea Party/Reception at the Philadelphia Flower Show; their ability to diversify themes and foods is both amazing and impressive. Simply put, I cannot say enough good things about them. And, YES, I have hired them for my daughter's wedding!!

Seedling and Sage has catered mutliple events for my yoga studio, Yoga Home. Their attention to details and ability to bring our concept to life was impressive. They happily (and easily) catered our students varying needs, from vegan to gluten-free. And, of course, the food was delicious!

Seedling and Sage were very easy to work with and experienced in the logistics. They set up my outdoor event as I had envisaged and then in a complete EMERGENCY brought on by a thunderstorm, set up again inside. This involved moving everything in the space of 5 minutes and the food was still delicious, and they were able to put everything back together wonderfully. Unfazed and well organized and worked seamlessly, it was wonderful -

Seedling and Sage were THE BEST choice we made for our wedding. Our guests can't stop talking about the food and we got married on August 6th! Maria and Melissa were available any time we needed them and so happy to talk about the food, decorations, or plans for setup. The big day went extremely smoothly (thanks to Seedling and Sage).
Thank you SO much for making our big day so special. -

Seedling and Sage catered my September wedding. From start to finish...I was completely impressed. It poured at my outdoor cocktail hour. The staff worked so very hard to make my day perfect. The food was excellent. Some of my guests said it was the best food they ever had at a wedding! Marykate was our coordinator and she was fantastic. The presentation of the food was beautiful and exactly what we wanted. Highly recommend! -

Melissa from Seedling & Sage was an amazing caterer! She was very flexible and creative with our menu; we had a lot of vegetarian requests and she was able to accommodate our requests very easily. She set up a tasting for me, my now husband, and my parents and it was one of my favorite activities out of everything I did during wedding planning! The tasting was very professional and was well put together so we could get a feel for the style of the displays at the wedding. We had food stations instead of a served dinner. Melissa also recommended an amazing day-of coordinator for us. Her name was Maria and since she was from the catering company, she worked really well with the caterers. She also seemed to be right by me whenever I had a question and made sure the details were handled and that all of the activities I had planned went off without a hitch. Melissa held a meeting with us about a month before the wedding to go over all of the logistics and details and it was such a helpful meeting! First, it made me realize everything I hadn't thought of so I went back and made a master timeline so everything was in one place, which was an invaluable tool. We held the wedding at my parent's home so there were more logistics involved than is normal and Melissa helped us to think about the traffic flow and how to stage everything. She also took care of the rentals for the plates and flatware. Melissa did a fabulous job with the signs! We wanted a rustic, outdoorsy, down to earth feel and she accomplished just that! I would recommend Melissa and her team to anyone. -

Seedling and Sage provided delicious, local, fresh food for our wedding reception. They were very supportive of specific dietary needs of myself and my guests and provided exemplary service.

I had a great experience with Melissa McDevitt and her team at Seedling & Sage. Melissa was both event planner and caterer for our post-wedding celebration. The catch is that I don't live in the U.S. so I needed someone on the ground to organize. Melissa was immensely helpful. From the very beginning, she made my life easy. For our first meeting, she outlined exactly what we would be talking about so that I could think about it beforehand and have answers or opinions. Melissa immediately and intuitively understood my "vision" for the event and I felt that everything she did was to preserve it. Where I didn't have a specific preference on something, she would offer a suggestion. When there were constraints, she would offer solutions. She was always upfront about ramifications of anything I wanted to do. She was also very flexible with the catering, as we wanted to use a favorite family restaurant to provide some of the food.
On the day of the event, Melissa and her team ran the event seamlessly, with grace, professionalism and lots of smiles. It's clear that Melissa is passionate about and proud of her business and wants to deliver the highest service possible.
The food from Seedling & Sage was perfect. There were many options for what we could serve and it was hard to choose! Of what we did have, all the dishes were interesting, the ingredients fresh, the presentation beautiful, and the flavors delicious. I had many guests inquiring as to who the caterer was.
I would highly recommend Melissa and her team at Seedling and Sage to do event planning and catering.

I was the wedding coordinator for a June 13th wedding at the Seaport Museum. We had the opportunity to work with Melissa and her team at Seedling and Sage. It was an absolute pleasure working with Melissa, and she was incredibly helpful throughout the entire planning process. She was very responsive and very organized, as well as very accommodating to our needs and any needs that the bride and the groom had. On the day of the event, Melissa and her team arrived promptly to the venue and worked to prepare the reception space and food to the desire of the bride and the groom. Melissa and her team were professional and inviting, which made the experience for the guests that much more enjoyable. The food was incredibly delicious, and the staff and service were excellent. We would absolutely recommend Melissa, Seedling and Sage, or anyone from their team for any future events! They were fabulous to work with and completed everything as desired!

The team at Seedling & Sage really made an impression on us and our guests. Before the wedding, Melissa was absolutely open to our ideas and worked within our budget. They saw no issues with our short time frame, and they even went beyond our expectations with their ideas to fit our theme.
Jamie met me onsite, and she was absolutely wonderful with understanding my vision of how I saw the room and wanted to make sure it was easy for guests to get around and enjoy the food.
The day of - they were the first ones onsite, and they were ready to go! As the day went on, I saw them hustling and smiling throughout the reception. Our guests were absolutely delighted with the choices and set up. I was asked by many guests for the recipe for the hummus! Also - the cake & cookie display with tiny shots of milk was ADORABLE! Thank you so much! Such delicious food and such an AMAZING team! -

I used seeding a sage for my wedding last weekend. at the sage farmhouse. The food was out of this world good! All our guest enjoyed everything.. I can say everything tasted as good as it did during our tasting months earlier! The set up of all the food looked amazing an was our rustic style!
The only issue I had was the bartenders open almost every bottle of alcohol! 7 bottles of red wine and not an oz. taking out.. I had to throw it away. Not sure why they would open them if no one asked for a glass. I also have 1.75L of other bottles open, Not a drop taking out, again not sure why they broke the seals if no one requested a drink.
Alcohol doesn't go bad but I just cant return it.. Kind of sucks now I have tons of alcohol.
My planner Emma was great she worked with me every step of the way. -

Maria and her team really made our wedding stand out. So many of our guests wanted to know who catered, and we were happy to tell them. -

What a pleasure it was to work with Seedling and Sage! Their team provided exceptional service just weeks before our event! We had them on our list but eventually went with someone else who in turn bailed on us. Seedling and Sage were right there ready and willing to help us out. We should have never strayed from them to begin with!!
All ideas, visions, and transactions were made with ease. Their style fit in with our event perfectly. They remained flexible and willing to please at all times.
Guests are still telling us how much they enjoyed the food! It seems as though the potatoes and the suggested signature drink were quite the hit! We were very happy with the cultery as well!
I am highly recommending them for any event and will be using their services again in the future! -

It seems as if fate brought Melissa from Seedling & Sage to cater our wedding this past June. I was referred to Melissa through a friend only to discover that Melissa has gotten married at the same location as me on essentially the same date only years prior! As such, she was very familiar with the venue and was eager to share some insight from her experience there.
Seedling's professionalism was apparent from our initial tasting - their attention to detail with the printed menu in combination with the ambiance of the music and candles left me ready to sign the contract. The fact that the food was the best we had tasted was only icing on the cake! Several guests told me the night of the wedding that the food was the best food they have ever had at a wedding (we had the crab cakes and tuscan chicken for the reception).
Seedling & Sage was really the only caterer that was willing to work side-by-side with our Indian caterer from north jersey without reluctance which was absolutely necessary for our wedding and made them stick out from 'the crowd'. Melissa handled the challenge gracefully despite the fact that there were a bunch of unknowns when we signed the agreement and we really did not finalize the indian menu until a few weeks before the wedding! Melissa's crew even came in a day early to get a leg up on the reception setup in the event of rain on Saturday should we need to walk through the reception space earlier than anticipated.
I would definitely recommend Seedling & Sage to cater your wedding or event especially if you have high expectations for the quality of food and ambiance for the party. Our whole day was a beautiful whirlwind and I do not know that it would have been the same if Seedling & Sage was not involved! -

Overall, S&S was an excellent choice for our wedding day. Our event was seamless, food was delicious, the upscale rustic cuisine fit perfectly with our vision, and our day was executed exactly how we had arranged. Maria was our event coordinator and was great the day of - she checked in frequently, stuck to the schedule, and easily worked to seat unanticipated guests that surprisingly showed up. Our wedding could not have been any better and having S&S as our caterer was a great choice.
However, it wasnt always a smooth course to get there and my husband and I did have some frustrations in dealing with S&S, namely our coordinator, in terms of communication leading up to our wedding. S&S was the preferred caterer for our venue, which was a brand new venue for 2017. My husband and I booked them early and, because we were having our wedding at a new venue, they were very accommodating with changing the all-inclusive package to work with our venue's set-up, rentals, etc. That part was wonderful and we were very glad we had all of these arrangements in writing ahead of time prior to signing our contract because when the final invoice came along there were a few extra charges that we had to meticulously look through the bill to avoid being overcharged. It was then adjusted quickly. There were a couple time during the months leading up to our wedding where it would take weeks to get a reply via email from our coordinator and when updates to our event-outline were sent it seemed as though several details were overlooked and I was frequently making corrections to the documentation had already been discussed. Overall, we were very happy to have Maria and S&S for our event but needed to stay on top of things and pay attention to the details. -

Great reviews, inedible chicken
We went with Seedling and Sage based on their flawless reviews and a delicious tasting. They catered a 130 person wedding celebration for us, and there definitely were some highlights -- good appetizers, beautiful displays, and great communication while planning with Darcy. She is lovely.
Overall, we had a beautiful day and are thrilled to be married. Our dinner was the only blemish.
Our dinner was mediocre at best. The rolls were stale. We asked for seasonal vegetables and got potatoes and brussel sprouts in June. I heard from some guests that their chicken was delicious, but the chicken my husband (groom), father and I got was truly inedible. Please believe me when I say I am not picky, especially about chicken, which happens to be my favorite food. My brothers and father (seated at different tables) called it "hockey puck chicken." Seriously so dry and tough that you could hardly chew it.
The servers failed to keep wine glasses full during dinner, which was a services we opted to pay for. When my sister-in-law tried to fill her own glass after waiting around for service, she said they instructed her not to do so.
My parents spent over $20k on food from Seedling and Sage, and were disappointed by the lack of quality and professionalism.
When we let S&S know how disappointed we were, they sent us $400 in gift certificates to a nearby B&B. A nice gesture, but it would have been more meaningful and appreciated had they taken money off of our bill.
I rarely leave negative reviews, but the glowing reviews for Seedling and Sage were a huge factor in booking them for our wedding celebration, and I felt it was important to share our experience with other couples planning their weddings. We were really excited about our party and our food, and we were sad and disappointed that the food missed the mark. -

I was not totally happy with meal. Mac and cheese was somewhat overcooked. I never knew that the rib sliders were puled meat, if I had I would not have order the amount that I did. -

Would Not Recommend
You don't have many catering options when hosting a wedding at the Morris Arboretum. Seedling and Sage seemed like the better of the five options we were given to choose from. The food is standard in quality for banquet food. However, there were several off-putting aspects of our experience working with them.
First, we had to constantly be on top of our assigned planner to set up meetings and correct several errors in our BEO despite several emails with clear instructions on selections and preferences.
Second, we paid them $300 to set up a ceremony table for us (with photo and video instructions), and they in turn made my mom not only set up the whole thing without help, but also clean it up afterwards; this was so disrespectful towards my mom and a complete waste of money. This led to the entire reception falling massively behind schedule as my mom was late for her dance with us.
Third, they were not timely with serving food and desserts to our guests. There was a period of time where only one side of the reception tent had received their entrees and the other half had nothing on their tables; even our photographers noticed and commented on how disorganized it was. After our cake cutting, we had given them instructions to take the cake back and cut it to serve to guests. This did not happen until after the dance floor opened up, the cake had been sitting out for a long period of time, and I finally grew restless and went to the back kitchen to ask staff to take it back for cutting and serving.
And fourth, they tried to send an email to us a few weeks before our wedding stating that they were changing their gratuity policy and were going to increase the charges for our wedding despite a previously signed contract stating otherwise. We had to threaten legal action and get the Morris Arboretum team involved for them to abide by our original contract. Overall, an unpleasant experience with this catering company and I cannot in good faith recommend them. -

Seedling and Sage was by far the weakest link in what still ended up being a great day. We planned the wedding pretty quickly (in about 5 months) and Seedling and Sage hadn't worked at our venue before. After signing our contract, it took almost 3 weeks to get info about next steps despite reaching out a couple of times. That communication pattern continued throughout, with responses just slow enough to worry us. Even our final invoice didn't arrive until after I asked about it on the day it was supposed to be due. On top of that, there were many small mistakes that indicated a lack of attention to detail in the planning stages.
On the day of, the appetizers were good, the line at the bar was far too long, and the buffet was ok but not great. Although Seedling and Sage coordinated the rentals, they didn't seem to know how to troubleshoot a generator problem or to turn on the heaters, so the tent was cold during dinner and then too hot during the dancing once they figured out how to turn them on.
Overall, the price was affordable.
