We couldn't have been more thrilled with the way our wedding cake and mini desserts came out! Lisa, the pastry chef was great to work with and helped us to customize exactly what we wanted for both our cake and desserts.
Everything was delicious and our guests ate it all up (literally, no leftovers!). -

Karolina K. Sent on 02/19/2024The most amazing caterer!!!
We had the pleasure of working with Peppers for our wedding back in August and we cannot say enough wonderful things about them! Our main contact person with Peppers was Diane and she was so sweet and easy to work with. She was always available and responsive to emails. We had many small details that we wanted to incorporate and Diane spent a lot of time making sure that it all came together. For example, we were looking for a specific type of copper flatware for our table settings and Diane found the PERFECT fit. We also had Blackbird Donuts as one of our desserts, our favorite ginger beer shipped from Seattle for our signature drinks, customized ice, and a champagne tower - and Diane coordinated it all SO seamlessly. We had two late night snacks (Boston cannolis and Seattle hot dogs, from the two cities we call home) - and although Peppers had never even heard of a Seattle dog they absolutely NAILED recreating it, it was so so good! All of the food (from the drinks to the apps to the entrees) was so delicious, we got so many compliments on it all! After our wedding, Peppers sent us a congratulatory bottle of wine and a jar of homemade granola. So incredibly sweet. We cannot recommend them enough!!!! They really do put in 110%, not just for the basics but for the all the little details as well. -

Peppers was the only caterer available at our venue which made my husband and I a bit nervous at first, however their service and food was above and beyond! Our guests still comment on the delicious appetizers and meals. Dianne was great to communicate with and Julie, our event manager, kept us well informed on the day of, could not recommend them enough! -

Peppers was amazing to work with. They created the most beautiful centerpieces for our reception space. Not only is their event design stellar - but the food is to die for! All our guests raved about their dinner. And the deserts bar and assorted cupcakes were a hit. Dianne and Cassandra made our dream happen! We highly recommend Peppers for your wedding! -

Amy Sent on 10/14/2021Carolyn from Peppers Artful Events is the best!
I used Peppers Artful Events for my wedding in October 2021. I am so happy with the quality of food and service provided. Carolyn was my coordinator and made my wedding less stressful and more enjoyable. Knowing she was there made me feel more relaxed, knowing she would handle everything. I planned my entire wedding by myself and Carolyn stepped up and made the process so much better. Peppers Artful Events made my wedding beautiful and seamless. I had a small 50 person wedding and they accommodated food allergies and preferences without issue. The quality of their service and food/décor are worth way more than what I paid for. I feel lucky to have had this caterer for my wedding. I highly recommend Peppers Artful Events. Sue the owner is awesome too, she helped me out in a pinch and was friendly and professional. I loved how smooth and enjoyable my wedding was thanks to Peppers Artful Events. -

Brian L. Sent on 09/08/2021Peppers Artful Events is definitely the best caterer in New England!
We are so very happy that we selected Peppers Artful Events to be the caterer for our wedding at the Gardens at Uncanoonuc Mountain. We can not thank Kathleen Connolly enough for her grace, dignity, leadership/organization skills, experience, professionalism, etc. She helped us along the way, was always available to answer our questions, and took the pressure off of us. The staff was amazing, timely, and professional. To our knowledge, not 1 guest complained about the food! The filet mignon, chicken, and eggplant rollatini were top notch. The appetizers were delightful and well prepared. The food was so delicious!! Peppers is the best!! We are so happy we went with Peppers and very lucky for Kathleen to be the person we got to work with. Peppers took care of everything timely and seemlessly!! I am so happy the wedding party got to partake in the appetizers while taking photos during the cocktail party entrees! You made sure both Marissa and I ate our entress! That did not happen at either of my brothers weddings.
We are beyond grateful. Peppers helped make our day a magical day and one we will never, ever forget.
It was the best day!
Everybody should hire Peppers to cater their weddings! -

Amazing food and Service
We used Peppers for catering for our venue at Tower Hill and their services made our wedding planning so easy! They have a large variety of seasonal food options and we’re very accommodating to dietary restrictions and allergies (gluten). All of our guests raved about the food! We had short ribs, herb chicken, and a vegetable risotto for entrees with a wedge salad and it was SPECTACULAR. None of the food was over cooked or dry for being cooked off site and was flavor packed! We worked with Lillian and she was extremely helpful in answering our questions and making sure everything was taken care of! They made our planning a one stop shop for food, rentals, and taking care of all of the set up. -

Peppers is an absolutely masterful catering and event company. My husband and I got married at Tower Hill, and Peppers serviced the celebration with such attention to detail and thoughtfulness. In every conversation leading up to the event, Peppers listened closely to our vision, provided considerate recommendations and advice, and steered us in the right direction when we were uncertain of what would be most fitting for our celebration. They were responsive, flexible and provided us with the resources and support to have a worry-free wedding celebration (and we really did).
We are still getting rave reviews about the food and drinks. Every bite was just as delicious as the last - from the passed hors d'oeuvres to the late night snack - and Peppers executed everything perfectly. They were also so attentive and flexible about dietary restrictions, coming up with unique and tasty alternatives when needed to ensure that every guest had an enjoyable meal.
The staff was truly outstanding. We were overwhelmed by the level of service they provided to us and to every guest throughout the entire event and how they became a part of our celebration. We will never forget how memorable and care-free Peppers made our event - we would highly recommend them for any special event.

We were going to get married at Tower Hill in June 2020, but the pandemic happened. We were worried about getting our deposit back from Peppers since we were going to have a backyard wedding instead on June 11, 2021. After much deliberation, we decided to stick with Peppers for catering/florals/rentals, and OH MY GOD, did we make the right choice. Are they expensive? Yes. Is it worth spending a little extra money to have peace of mind on your big day? 100%. We worked with Jody as our coordinator, Colleen as our onsite coordinator and Lindsey for florals/design. I couldn't recommend a better dynamic trio! Jody eased my mind and gave me so much advice when choosing a new venue. She did a great job of keeping me on track and helping me navigate all of the new changes. Day-of, Colleen CAME THROUGH! She knew every detail, made sure everything was on time, and even sent additional staff to our bar (not Peppers) to lend a hand. Everything went SO WELL and was so incredibly organized. My brother got married the following month in the same backyard and we actually hired Peppers for the bar and the appetizer stations. My family was so impressed by the quality of Peppers' work that we knew it wasn't even an option to have them for my brother's wedding - it was a necessity. And did I mention the food? Our guests couldn't stop talking about it. PLENTY of hors d'oeuvres, striking raw bar, and all plates came out promptly and were delicious AND hot. They set up the coffee and cake station so quietly - all of a sudden this beautiful display appeared out of nowhere. Everyone thought I was crazy for trying to host a high-end, cocktail-attire "backyard" wedding, but Peppers understood my vision and really executed it superbly.
Now I need to take a special moment to talk about Lindsey. After the full-time florist left around COVID, Lindsey jumped in and worked right beside me and Jody to work on my florals. I had wholesale peonies from Nicewicz farm and needed a florist to arrange and add greenery. Lindsey also knew I didn't want a basic tent. With a very short timeline, Lindsey hired a production company for lighting and then hired a florist that would arrange our peonies. All brides know how painful it is to add an additional vendor to communicate with and Lindsey took both of them off my plate!! She explained my vision, gave me design options, and worked with booking. The florist had issues with us using wholesale peonies and [the week before the wedding] said we'd need to cut the flowers on Sunday before a Friday wedding and then sign a contract saying "if they look bad on Friday, it's not his fault." Obviously, that's a hard no. Lindsey recognized it and said "I booked you another florist, don't worry! You can bring the peonies to Peppers on Wednesday, no problem." Guess who the florist was? Lindsey herself. I'm sure she didn't want to tell me because she had disclosed that she's not a professional, but BOY DID SHE FOOL ME AND EVERYONE! I have never seen more beautiful floral arrangements in my life. AND she showed up at noon day-of to help arrange and manage the production company too.
Thank you to all of Peppers Artful Events for making our dreams come true! To all the staff that attended our wedding or my brother's, you were all so incredibly kind and thoughtful. I always had someone right behind me ready to give me another beef wellington bite; it was truly appreciated. I must've eaten more food than any bride in history. I can't wait to hire Peppers for baby showers, anniversaries, birthday parties, and many special events to come. -

Amanda L. Sent on 06/27/2021Fabulous, everything you need in one package
Peppers was phenomenal. They worked with us for our daytime wedding, cocktail hour, and lunch reception at Tower Hill and they really delivered. They did their best to work within our budget to deliver delicious food, drinks, and dessert. They also provided rustic chairs and a gorgeous rustic arbor for our ceremony. We have nothing but good things to say about Dianne S. and Jen S., and all the other Peppers staff. The food was top notch and so was the service. Jen checked in many times to ensure things were going exactly as we had hoped- and they truly did. They made sure we were getting food and drinks during our portraits, and even sent us home with extra food! Throughout the whole planning process they were very communicative and really helped us create an outline for our day, which was so helpful as we were pretty clueless. They even worked with Tower Hill to begin setting up earlier than usual due to the time of our ceremony. Everything from the color of the linens to the help setting up our flowers on the arbor made for a flawless day. You won’t be disappointed. -

Delicious food and wonderful staff
We had one criteria for our wedding, which was delicious food. Peppers Artful Events knocked it out of the park with delicious food (our beef tenderloins were perfectly medium rare and served at a perfect temperature) and even better mini-desserts! The wait staff and bar staff were also so kind and considerate (even setting aside a slice of cake for us while we went around to greet our guests). -

Joy D. Sent on 06/09/2021Artful Healthy Food with Creative Twist Pleased EVERYONE
For my son's garden-style, backyard wedding rehearsal at our home in May, Jody Boyajian of Peppers helped us take our dinner to the next level as she carefully listened to my requests for Asian flavored and veggie-inspired food and offered GREAT suggestions. Menu she designed for us was incredible including generous portions of Braised Boneless Shoyu Short Ribs which everyone loved, Chicken Pot Stickers, Grilled Veggie Platter (carefully arranged) and Summer Strawberry Hearts salad with Goat Cheese and Strawberry Vinaigrette. Wow factor was in full force! SHE made it possible for us to give a gift of healthy wonderful elegant and different meal to 30 people — many of which we had just met for first time. A blessing. She also had very cool presentation ideas.
This was far beyond all expectations. Jody's professionalism in working with me on this clearly came through and is much appreciated. Would love to do all over again! Thank you! Highly recommend -- especially to celebrate life's big moments in a completely special way.

Kathy T. Sent on 05/29/2019Professional & warm staff; delicious food & wine
Peppers Artful Events catered my daughter's wedding at Tower Hill in May 2019 and I cannot rave about them enough. Jody Boyajian was our wedding event manager and every detail was attended to. Jody accommodated every request we had and anticipated our every need. She recommended how to keep us within out budget yet not sacrifice on quality or taste. The food and service were outstanding. The service the night of the wedding was flawless. Peppers' staff was so professional. They researched alternate wines that were still in our budget but that we liked better than the original offering. The owner Susan even delivered bottles to our home - twice! - until we got just the right wine selection that we loved. Our guests raved about every aspect from the kindness, warmth and professionalism of the service to the fantastic wine offerings to the delicious meals. All food allergies were accommodated - vegan, GF, DF etc etc. I will definitely catering future events with Peppers and hope to have Jody again as my event manager! 5 stars!Peppers Artful Events's reply:
Hi Kathy, we are so glad to hear that you enjoyed your experience working with Jodi as well as the food and services that we provided for your daughter’s wedding. We hope to hear from you and work with you in the future. Thanks from the Pepper’s Team! -

Lauren P. Sent on 06/21/2021Utter perfection.
From planning every detail to ensuring the evening ran smooth as silk (no matter what happened), to some of the most incredible dishes we have ever tasted, Peppers truly does craft artful events. They worked with our venue to make sure we had all the proper permits up to and including day-of changes with staffing restrictions due to changes in COVID guidelines. They took care with every detail planned and plated ensuring our decisions were easy, our dinner was DELICIOUS, and our focus could stay maintained on the greatest day of our lives rather than bogged down in details.
And the planning was just the start because boy did they execute: amazing food and stellar service, neither we nor a single guest wanted for anything all night. In fact, almost every individual guest went out of their way to rave about both the food and service up to and including a custom hot cocoa bar to close out the night. And Peppers worked hard to make sure it happened flawlessly... in the middle of an empty field… in the throes of changing conditions in the wind-down of a global pandemic. The crew were each and all true professionals, undoubtedly dedicated to producing the best possible for us.
Our wedding was a special day, largely made possible by Peppers. We could not be more thankful to or impressed by Susan & John and the whole team for making our downsized wedding feel like the biggest celebration: we literally could not have dreamt up a more perfect day than the one they helped us produce and we will forever remember the day because of how much work they put into it to make it truly special. -

Jennifer Sent on 12/16/2019Best food in the city and amazing service!
I am so glad we went with Peppers for our wedding! We are both major foodies and it was the number one priority for us. Trish is amazing and great to work with, she intentionally set up our tasting about a year in advance so that we would get the fresh produce in the same season we were getting married so it would be easier to judge how things would taste. She was right and everything met and exceeded our expectations on the day. They even brought in a full kitchen to the venue to make sure everything was at the perfect temperature and fresh when we got it. We recieved so many complements from all our guests on the food - my mother-in-law even said the chowder rivalled hers and she is very serious about her chowder! Peppers was even willing and volunteered to make special dishes for a couple of my guests who have food intolerances so they could also have the full experience. We also got our cakes from them and chose a dark chocolate Buche de Noel as our cutting cake and dark and white chocolate Swiss rolls precut to serve, everything but a bit less than what would have been on a top tier of a traditional cake was gone before the end, it was amazing (both flavors - we tried both). The service was also AMAZING, Tracy the day of coordinator kept everything running smoothly and made sure everyone was fed and happy and that people knew about and were able to try both of our signature mocktails (half our guests were either under 21 or dont drink so we went with themed mocktails instead). One of the servers, Theresa, was extra attentive to the two of us, bringing us a huge plate of the hors d'oeurves while we were doing pictures and keeping everyone out of the area while I was switching dresses. She made sure to check on us every 5-10 minutes to make sure we had what we needed since we couldnt walk through the room to get things ourselves without being stopped. All of the staff was amazing and helpful going out of their way to make sure everyone was taken care of from boxing up cake for my sister to take back to the hotel for her kids who fell asleep in thier dinner, to holding the cocktail hour a bit longer so we could finish pictures before everyone was seated for soup course. I will definitely use Peppers again if I have an event to plan, and would definitely order platters of their pig newtons for a random Saturday because they are just that amazingly delicious! -

Merrie Sent on 09/13/2019Amazing team!
My husband and I got married on September 1st, 2019 and we had the best experience with Peppers Artful Event. The food was amazing, from the appetizers, main meals, and desserts. We kept hearing from our guests that they had the best food. Jody helped us and our family to decide the best menu and she was very helpful and responsive. She help us built the best menu according to our liking. Peppers also did the decoration, and the venue looks so beautiful. I still can't get over how pretty all the bouquets as well as all the center pieces. Katie helped us with the decoration and she is the sweetest. On the day of, we had Lindsey as the event manager from peppers. She was on top of everything and we were so happy that she was there to help us. Very professional. My husband and I had nothing to worry about. I 100% recommend peppers not only because of the delicious food, but also the professionalism of the team. We had the best experienced.
