The Elan Catering and Events Reviews

Definitivamente el equipo fue genial ,pero sobre todo Erika con su dulzura u paciencia nos ayudó en cada detalle …Nos encantó y definitivamente ella es la mejor !

First off both Erika and Harry were amazing. They were very responsive prior to the day of. On the actual wedding day, Harry was nothing short of outstanding. He was on top of everything and had all bases covered. Maria, the bridal attendant, was super sweet and helpful and made sure my husband and I had everything we could possibly need. During the reception, Harry and Maria kept checking on us to make sure we had everything. The food was actually amazing. It was even better the day of then it was during the tasting. All of my guests said that they really enjoyed the food. The whole experience was outstanding. As a bride, there are so many moving parts the day of and it is very overwhelming. But I can honestly say that they really helped me to be able to breathe and try to take it all in. Their packages were very affordable but with the level of service they provided, it was an absolute steal.

From start to finish, Erika made our wedding dreams come true. Harry and Maria are amazing at what they do. They are prompt, knowledgeable and beyond helpful. Harry was the most amazing day of coordinator, and Maria, can’t say enough about Maria…she was the BEST making sure we were good all night. The ceremony room is breathtaking. The service is spectacular. My guests said it was the best wedding food they have every had. The bartenders made amazing drinks and people rarely had to wait. The night started and ended perfectly, I am beyond happy with my experience.

The Elan was the perfect place for my wedding, the skylight room made for a gorgeous ceremony and the grand ballroom was perfect for my starry blue lit vision. The event manager was always on top of it all, he made sure everything ran smoothly and was so attentive and sweet to take my worries away. The food was DELICIOUS, I was a little nervous so I didn't have much past cocktail hour BUT my guests all compared, saying that other venues normally had bland mediocre food, but The Elan had such tasteful and such variety during the cocktail, crab cakes and coconut shrimp, chicken and waffles, just everything for the appetizer foodgasm, and for the main courses wood grilled tri-tip and a savory miso glazed salmon, seriously the food was mouth watering. All of the aesthetic, amazing food, and attentiveness, for such great value. Loved it all ❤️

My husband and I got married on 10/7/22, from the moment we visited The Elan for a tour and sat down with Ari the owner we decided to book them. Ari was very professional and the rest of the staff as well, on the day of our wedding reception Harry was our maitre d, he was very attentive to us the entire night and we had the most perfect reception. Great service and great venue. Our guests loved the food especially during the cocktail hour. My husband and I feel so grateful and so glad we booked The Elan, definitely recommend.

First walking in your greeted with such a warm welcoming, the rooms are beautiful and your shown examples of what the room would look like on your special day. Most of all it's great if your on a budget.

This venue was very beautiful and the food was amazing the experience was amaZing. Rachel and Steven were great to work with ana maria was a delight to work with.

My husband and I got married here on 10/27/19. From the very beginning of booking the hall to the last minute when we cut our cake and thanked our guest for coming, our experience was seamless!!!!. Ari, Rachel and Steve are wonderful. They answer all your questions promptly, they are patient, caring and very helpful. Their professionalism showed everytime and it truly helped me feel confident that our big day would be perfect. The food was deliciuos, drinks were nonstop, ceremony room was so private and elegant and the grand ballroom put the icing on the cake. My guest felt special having complimentary valet parking and the rest of the staff were inviting as well. I would definitely book with them again and encourage others to do the same. I promise you won't be disappointed. Our WEDDING turned out perfect!!!! Might I add that the packages were VERY VERY REASONABLE!!! I had 120 guest and the price I paid for the ceremony, cocktail hour, reception, open bar, and valet parking was a steal. Beautiful people, beautiful banquet hall, and beautiful experience!!!! Thanks to The Elan and ALL hands on deck!

The Elan was the best choice for our wedding. The food along with the great service is truly unmatched. Steven our Maître D and took care of everything!! He made my dreams as a bride come true. He listens to your needs and wants and truly delivers. All our guests were extremely happy. I especially appreciate them putting everything together and making my vision come to life. I would recommend them to everyone! Try their food it’s to die for!!!

The Elan was fantastic. Rachelle, Steve and Maria made our wedding a night to remember. Rachelle was our go to from the start and even was flexible with modifying our date and guest count. Steve made our vision of the room come to life and was there with answers to all of questions and request. Maria was our go to on the day of and was absolutely fabulous. The food was great and all of our guest had a blast! Great value for nyc area, we highly recommend them!

My husband and I were married on July 5, 2019 at the Elan. We had the most perfect wedding day thanks to the wonderful staff at the Elan. We worked with Rachel to help us book our wedding and she was great. She was quick to respond to any questions we had and fully explained all the wedding packages available. As the wedding day got closer we met with Steven and he was awesome. He walked us through the whole process and made our day as stress free as possible. On our wedding day Maria was there every step of the way anticipating our every need and want. The whole process was great and stress free! We had a perfect wedding day and enjoyed it to the fullest. The food was delicious as well!

I remarried my husband of 30 years but in the eyes of the lord. The Elan helped us celebrate. They are organized and give you ideas. They also have items that you do not have to buy. Example table numbers and cake stands that can match any decor.

I’ll start off by saying this place is hands down amazing and the best decision we made for our wedding.

Pre-Wedding
We first met with Rachel, 13 months before our wedding and who first gave us a tour of The Elan and went through all the wedding packages that they offer. It’s a very beautiful location, especially the Alexandria room and the Skylight room where we did our ceremony. We were really impressed by the amount of food that they offer for each package, as well as an included Palermo’s Bakery Cake, a wedding day coordinator/ maitre d and a bridal assistant.

The road to the wedding
Rachel and Steven are by far excellent at answering any emails and returning calls. We had so many questions that we thought we annoyed them but they were very patient, knowledgeable, helpful and kind throughout the whole process.
We met with Steven, the BEST Maitre D EVER, a few months before to do a food tasting and to go over the new menu that the chef will launch during the wedding season. The food was by far excellent. The chef definitely organized a great fresh, trendy menu that would attract the 20-30s adults, while also pleasing the older crowd and kids. The Elan’s menu ranges from your classic traditional Italian, Latin, Asian, and new American. Steven also made sure we had a signature cocktail of our choice, which was one of the best Mojitos in the North East!
Rachel and Steven worked with all of our vendors to make sure everything was going to run smoothly for our big day and it did!

Wedding Day
What more could we have asked from The Elan? They exceeded our expectations and made our day magical and stress free. Also, a special thank you to Maria whom is an exceptional bridal attendant. Maria anticipated any and everything we needed without even having to ask. Everyone at The Elan goes above and beyond. If I or any one I know needs an event venue, I will definitely not hesitate to recommend The Elan!

Thank you to The Elan Crew!!!

Everything about the Elan was nothing short of amazing! The team was very accommodating. All of my guests were surprised when they found out how great this venue was for my budget (almost $10,000 less than all of the other venues I was looking into). If I had to choose again I would still choose the Elan. The food was amazing and of course the main attraction was the bar. My guest still talk about the hospitality they received. Will definitely use for future family events. Thanks again

Wow, where do i start? I planned the wedding from D.C and every single one that worked there was very helpful and understanding. They contacted me with every little detail and gave me all the details that i needed to know. The food was amazing and even better the price! I highly recommended this place.

From the moment we walked in to check out the venue to the wedding day, The Elan made sure they met our needs and truly catered to us and the wedding guests. Their food, price package, and the staff were superb! Highly recommend them!

The Elan made my wedding a true fairytale. The staff's attention to detail was unbelievable. Rachel is extremely responsive, professional and efficient. Steven and Maria were so attentive to me and my groom on our wedding day and the wait staff and bar tender were top notch. My husband and I were extremely pleased with the level of service we received throughout our wedding planning and post wedding. I highly recommend the Elan for your wedding or event.

This venue along with the staff is great. My husband and I enjoyed the professional way the staff cater to our guest along with us.. We had a day wedding the guest could not stop talking about it.. Would love to have our anniversary there.. Next year... Food was great as well. Thanks again for making our wedding great!!! We love you😘
