    Excellent Experience!!



    "We had the pleasure of working with Patrice from Elegant Events for my daughter's wedding and it was truly a delightful experience. Patrice worked closely with us to curate a delicious buffet menu that exceeded our expectations. The food was not only scrumptious but also lovingly and elegantly prepared. The service was impeccable, and many of our wedding guests commented that it was the best wedding food they had ever tasted. Patrice's attention to detail and dedication to creating a memorable culinary experience truly made our daughter's special day even more exceptional. We highly recommend Elegant Events for anyone looking for top-notch catering with a personal touch.

    Amazing!!!!!

    Patrice catered the food for my wedding and provided the bar services. We are from
    Boston and had a destination wedding in Jensen Beach, Patrice was sooooo kind to us and easy to get ahold of at any point. The food at the wedding was AMAZING. My guests were saying that not only was it the best wedding food they have had but the best food they’ve had in long time!! Patrice really cares about the food she puts out and it shows. 100000/ 10 recommend!!! We can’t thank Patrice and her team enough for making our day even more special.

    The best of the best catering

    On July 4th 2023, I attended a wedding in a private residence right on the intercoastal. Elegant Events was the caterer and Bar Service. They were excellent with the quality of food, the presentation and the staff service. Chef Patrice went above and beyond to meet all of the dietary needs of several of the guests as well. I would highly recommend this company for all of your catering needs.

    I’ve used Elegant Events for Holiday Parties, both of my kids weddings, my husbands birthday party and business parties! The staff is always professional and hard working, the food is beyond delicious and Patrice never fails to go above and beyond!

    Amazing Food and Service

    I cannot express how fantastic the food tasted. The presentation was outstanding as well. We had passed hors d'oeuvres and a pasta station, salad station, sweet station, and stir fry station. We used the bartender service as well for the wedding and had a brunch service the next morning. The food taste was amazing and everything was hot. All of our guests raved about the food and how friendly the staff at Elegant Events were. Patrice met with us several times in the year leading up to our wedding and was always so patient and had great suggestions. We had an outdoor venue and there were heavy rains during most of the meal service and the team executed hot served meals without any issues. We are forever grateful to Patrice and William and the rest of the team for helping to make our Wedding very special with memories that will last a lifetime.

    Great Caterer

    Patrice was excellent and easy to work with. I planned with her for my sons wedding in Florida all while I was in NJ and she was very accommodating to all of our needs. The food was delicious! I highly recommend her for your catering needs.

    The best ever food, service and presentation

    I’d used Patrice and her team before for other events so I knew they’d be great for my wedding g weekend, but even so, they surpassed my expectations. They managed the food for my 3 day affair with expertise and amazingly excellent food for all of it - including a pasta dinner for 80, and brunch for 110, and a dinner for 120- each at different venues and menus: each exquisite. They were simply wonderful.

    “Boston In The House”

    My future sister-in-law and I were planning my small wedding at her home in Stuart Florida and we happened to stumble upon Elegant Events and Custom Catering’s website. I live in the Boston area and not familiar with Stuart at all, but after speaking with Patrice Depino I knew I found the right Caterer. She and I went back and forth via email, fine tuning our menu choices once or twice. She offered her opinion, but also allowed us to have free reign with our selections. The results were spectacular! Her staff was professional and courteous and very attentive to our quests. The food was out of this world! Our guests raved over the passed appetizers and beautifully presented entrees. The Mashed Potato in a Martini Glass was a huge hit! We had people coming up to us days later commenting on how delicious everything was. Patrice and her staff made our wedding very special and memorable. Highly recommend!!!!

    Food was amazing!

    Patrice did a phenomenal job catering our 90-person at-home wedding reception. She made great food suggestions that worked for the variety of guests. Everything was cooked fresh and served hot (or cold, for those cold items). The servers not only passed hors d' oeuvres, but also picked up plates and cups and kept the reception area tidy. When the meal was served (we had food stations), all of Patrice's staff was on hand to make sure none of our guests waited in long lines to get their food. Our guests raved about the food and service for days after. I'd say Patrice went above and beyond to make sure our event was stress-free from a food perspective. She even had her staff cut and serve our wedding cake (which we purchased separately) without an additional charge. Food was an important part of our reception and Patrice delivered. I would recommend her without hesitation.

    Amazing! Didn’t have to worry about a thing!

    Patrice was the best! I planned a Vero Beach wedding from Tallahassee and wasn’t able to do a tasting before hand but all the food was amazing. Some of the wedding guests said it was the best wedding food they ever had. I heard after their truck had broken down on 95 day of but they were able to get another truck and have everything there on time. Service was impeccable. Hire Patrice and you won’t have to worry. You can trust her absolutely.

    Simply amazing!

    From the tasting to the wedding, my husband and I were absolutely blown away with the level of detail and professionalism Patrice had towards our wedding envision. Patrice made the most effort I have experienced during this trying time, making us feel secure in our decision with her and her communication was above and beyond what we could have hoped for. Patrice and her team arrived early to the venue leaving more than enough time for preparations. The food was cooked on site and guests never had to wait longer than a few seconds for a hot plate. To this day, the top comment my husband and I hear is how spectacular and delicious the food was. I highly recommend anyone to check Patrice and her team out for delicious food, amazing support and superb pricing!

    Since my mother and step-father to be run businesses and work full time, I, the food hound in the family got the responsibility of selecting a caterer for their engagement party. I got so frustrated with this task that I created a menu with a few ideas of what we wanted and emailed it out to about 15 caterers.

    Since we wanted about 4 different passed hors d' oeuvres and surf and turf for the dinner portion for only 35 people most caterers wouldn't work with me. They wanted to sell me quantity not variety, and they also wouldn't allow us to take left overs we purchased home. They were not upfront about where they purchased their fish and if it was frozen or not (big deal to us) and wouldn't work with us on cuts of meat either.

    Patrice called me in the evening, I knew it was a caterer, I didn't feel like speaking with another or getting gouged again but I'm glad I answered.

    Unlike every single other caterer I spoke with, she didn't rush me off the phone. She listened to everything I told her, then asked plenty of questions. We stayed on the phone for an hour and a half! She even allowed me to find my own fish, fresh, never frozen cobia from a friend of mine and cooked it perfectly herself. Everything for my mothers event was personalized, her staff was wonderful and the food was to die for! I had so many compliments on Patrice, her services and her wonderful food.

    I really can't express enough how personal of an experience Patrice makes catering. I felt like we had a friend in the kitchen cooking for us.

    When dinner was through they bagged all the left overs for us and cleaned up everything spotlessly.

    If I ever get hitched I will be calling Patrice for my own without a doubt!

    A Wedding Planner's Dream Come True

    As a planner I know how important it is to provide a delicious meal for your guests .My Daughter was married on August 7, 2021. Chef Depino truly provided all of our guests with an impressive menu. All of the food was cooked fresh on site, including an interactive Tempura Station which everyone raved about! I went to every table to greet all the guests and they all told me it was the best food they ever had at a wedding! I have attended and coordinated numerous weddings and I agree that Chef Depino is always on point with flavor, presentation and service. I wanted the best for my daughter's wedding and I got it.

    Perfection!

    Elegant Events catered my sister's wedding at Ever After Farms. All I have to say is that everything was perfect. The taste, timing and service were exceptional. The bride, groom, wedding party and guests enjoyed every bite. Chef Depino runs a well oiled machine. We are so thankful to her and her team.

    Flexible, delicious food, accommodating

    Elegant Events and Custom Catering was wonderful to work with. We didn't have a large group so they were able to accommodate a few dishes we could eat in the morning as well. They were very personable and very flexible with our schedule. Fun, lively energy!

    Did I mention the food was delicious!?

    Highly recommended!
