Marylyn was a huge contributor to the success of our wedding. She helped us plan every single detail from the second we met! Her team delivered an amazing cocktail hour, family style dinner, dessert and wedding cake! We highly suggest Marylyn to caterer any event , she has the skills and knowledge to make your event memorable. We are still getting compliments a month later on all of the food and service provided by Marylyn’s team!

Marylyn’s infectious personality, experience, and uncompromising attention to detail calmed our “first-time event” nerves! We held a first-time corporate appreciation gala to honor our direct support staff who are the lifeblood of our community. The event was held on a Sunday evening (in our auditorium). With Marylyn’s talent and recommendations, the event space was transformed into an elegant five-star hall. Guests were in awe! She meticulously set up a computer-generated table diagram, worked with our dining management to rent proper equipment, consistently followed up open items we accepted responsibility to provide. Her recommendation for flowers and a DJ were top notch. I’ve never planned an event let alone an event for 200 guests (that I see daily!). The food was delicious and pleased a very diverse group of attendees. Looking forward to future events with Juste Hors D’Oeuvres and More.

Marylynn and her team did a great job at our wedding reception, held at our home. The food was delicious and prepared on time according to our plan. The staff was attentive to our needs and those of our guests and they did a great job cleaning up - would never have known they were there. Thanks for a great event!

We knew immediately once we booked Juste Hors D’Oeuvres to cater my daughter’s wedding that we had made the right decision. Marilyn was warm and genuine in all of our meetings and interactions before the big day. The day of the wedding was amazing with Marilyn and her staff who were delightful, all zipping around getting things set up. Professional from beginning to end and I can’t say enough about how friendly and accommodating each of them were! Now for the food! It was superb! Appetizers, entrees and desserts and beautiful wedding cake were top notch and I’m still getting compliments from our guests on how delicious everything was. I couldn’t be more pleased with Marilyn and how perfect her and her team executed everything. Service and all of the food and drinks were over the top. Thank you for helping to make my daughter’s wedding truly memorable and magical. MaryAnn (mother of the bride)

FAQs

What should the customer know about your pricing (e.g., discounts, fees)?
Pricing should be customized to the clients' budget parameters. We are not an "off-the-shelf" catering company with prices for set packages. We feel that there are too many hidden costs in packages. Every proposal we make is broken down into the main components. This gives clients the ability to make financial decisions from a place of knowledge. Menus are developed in consultation with our clients. When we understand their wants and needs, we are empowered to work diligently to create a perfect and affordable event!
What is your typical process for working with a new customer?
Personalized consultation is the key to a perfect event. By chatting with my prospects and asking some key questions, together we are able to hone in on the perfect mix of wants and needs and develop the right budget parameters. As catering pros, there are times we suggest options to our clients that they would not have thought of themselves often resulting in the saving of time and money! While we all love social media and e-mail, neither are the right way to plan a perfect event!
What education and/or training do you have that relates to your work?
Our Chefs, Bartenders and other Staff are highly experienced. I spent many years as a teacher then a VP in a Fortune 500 company. It is the combination of exemplary cooking and planning coupled with savvy business prowess that built this business into a thriving success. We are the pros ready to assist you at every turn!!!
