Leslie and her team were a dream to work with. From the start, she was responsive to my requests, helpful with suggestions, and gave affordable options. The week of the event, the RSVPs skyrocketed and Leslie didn't bat an eye accommodating the larger crowd with more food, tables, tablecloths, champagne and wine glasses. Our guests, who just happened to be a room full of dentists, raved about the food and gorgeous setup. We had one guy from the catering crew stay throughout the event to help with cleanup, replenishing food, etc. He was absolutely amazing and was no doubt worth paying for hourly! He is the reason every host at the party said, "I was going to do (blank) but Ian already took care of it." We enjoyed the party so much more having him there to do the details. There were a couple of small things lost during cleanup that were a bit of a downer, and a few tablecloths and wine glasses were slightly less than clean. However, these small things were nothing compared to the attention given to our event, the care they gave, and the general helpfulness I felt from Fabulous Affairs. I will 100% hire them for our next event! I wish every company cared as much as they do.

I am a control freak in regards to aesthetics and so I had planned to piece together the sweets table for our anniversary party myself. We hired Leslie and team last minute to take the pressure off. So glad we did. The sweets, tea, and water were a great success and delicious. Turns out the casual style fit our event well. I also appreciated the timely drop-off/pick up. I just added a sign, a bit of candy, and some extra flowers to create the look I wanted. It worked out perfectly and was well worth the price to not have to do it all myself.

FAQs

What should the customer know about your pricing (e.g., discounts, fees)?
Each event is unique, so we work with the client to create a menu, theme, decorations, entertainment, to fit the occasion and budget. If you are in need of food only, we will work up menus based on your cuisine preferences within your budget.
What is your typical process for working with a new customer?
We encourage them to contact us with any requests, details, questions, and concerns, and then we work up a proposal based on their specifications and budget parameters.
What education and/or training do you have that relates to your work?
Leslie Wellons has a degree from Boston University in Hotel Restaurant Management and has been planning events large and small for 25 years. Bruce Cox is our Executive Chef. He has 38 years in the food and beverage arena. He attended chef school in the Northeast and trained under some of the BEST European chefs during his internship at The Parker House in Boston, MA where he prepared five course meals nightly.
