Staten Island events have their own character: more space, more privacy, more opportunity for ambitious outdoor production. Snug Harbor’s historic gardens, the North Shore’s harbor-facing venues, Tottenville’s quiet estate streets, and the South Shore’s beach-adjacent residences all support the kind of multi-hour, multi-station, full-experience events that more crowded boroughs can’t always accommodate.
Snug Harbor’s gardens, North Shore waterfront properties, and Todt Hill estate grounds support extraordinary outdoor catering — and we plan tents, kitchens, power and weather contingency for every
one of them.
When the venue is on the water, the menu should taste like it. Live raw bars, dock-to-table seafood, grilled-over-fire stations — built for the borough’s coastal character.
We bring the entire event infrastructure to the island — kitchens, refrigerated trucks, rentals, generators, restroom trailers, staff — so hosts on the island can produce events at the same scale as
Manhattan.
