Book a ConsultationWedding catering,
the way it should be.
Your wedding day deserves more than reheated trays and rushed service.
At Selene, every wedding begins with a private consultation — a real conversation about your vision, your venue, your guests, and the story you want your menu to tell. From there, our chefs design something that's authentically yours — not a checklist menu, but a curated experience that reflects who you are as a couple.
We bring the kitchen, the staff, the rentals, and the coordination to any venue across New York City, Brooklyn, Queens, the Bronx, Staten Island, Long Island, Westchester, and into New Jersey. You bring the vision. We handle everything else.
Four Ways to Serve Your Wedding
Every couple's vision is different. Choose the service style that fits your venue, your guest count, and the energy of your celebration.
Plated Dinner Service
A traditional reception experience. Multi-course meals served to each guest at their seat by professional service staff. Ideal for formal sit-down receptions and venues with full dining setups.
Interactive Stations
Modern grazing-style dining. Chef-led action stations placed throughout your venue — sushi, pasta, sliders, taco bars and more — for a relaxed, conversational reception with maximum variety.
Buffet Reception
Generous spreads of curated dishes presented at beautifully styled stations. Lower per-guest cost than plated service without sacrificing presentation, quality, or the elevated Selene aesthetic.
Family-Style Service
Shared platters at each table — the warmth of a home-cooked meal at scale. Perfect for intimate, rustic, or destination-style celebrations where conversation and connection lead the evening.
Built Around Every Moment of Your Day
A complete wedding catering program — from the first canapé to the late-night espresso martini.
Cocktail Hour
The first impression. Our curated passed canapé program starts at $25 per guest for 5 selections across vegetarian, meat, and seafood — from caprese skewers and figs in a blanket to lamb lollipops, lobster bites, and oyster shooters.
Pair it with a chef-curated cheese and charcuterie display, a live oyster bar with optional shucking experience, or a sushi platter station for an elevated welcome.
Dinner Service
Built around your vision. Choose plated dinner experiences for a traditional reception, interactive culinary stations for modern grazing-style service, or a buffet reception at $64 per guest for generous, beautifully styled spreads with premium upgrades.
Every menu is designed in collaboration with your chef — seasonal ingredients, dietary accommodations for every guest, and a service style that fits your venue and your story.
The Bar
Five beverage packages from $20 to $45 per guest, per hour — House Spirit, Standard, and Premium open bars, plus dedicated Beer & Wine and Mimosa Bar options. All include professional bartenders, premium ingredients, glassware, and complete bar setup.
Custom signature cocktails for the bride, the groom, or both — designed around your story and crafted by our bar team.
Late-Night & Dessert
Keep the celebration going. Passed dessert platters at $65 each, made-to-order ice cream sundae bars, churro stations, donut bars, and the iconic espresso martini bar to bridge dessert and the dance floor.
Late-night bites and dessert service designed to keep your guests at the celebration until the last song.

Wedding Catering Questions
What's your typical wedding minimum?
We cater weddings from 20 to 300+ guests, with no fixed minimum spend. Smaller intimate weddings often work best with our family-style or plated service; larger receptions tend toward stations or buffet. We'll recommend the right format on your consultation call.
How far in advance should we book?
For peak-season weddings (May–October), we recommend booking 8–12 months in advance. Off-season dates can often be accommodated with 3–6 months' notice. Once your consultation is complete, we hold your date with a deposit.
Can you accommodate dietary restrictions and allergies?
Every wedding menu accommodates gluten-free, vegan, kosher, halal, nut-free, and other allergen-conscious needs at no extra cost. We'll collect dietary preferences for every guest during the planning phase and prepare each meal accordingly.
Do you provide rentals — china, glassware, linens?
Yes. All premium rentals — china, glassware, flatware, and linens — are included with every wedding package. We work with multiple rental partners to match your venue's aesthetic, from classic ivory linens to modern earth-toned tablescapes.
What's included in your bar packages?
All bar packages include licensed professional bartenders, premium spirits, beer, wine, mixers, glassware, ice, garnishes, and complete bar setup. Five package tiers from $20–$45 per guest, per hour. Custom signature cocktails are available on all tiers.
Can we customize menus or include family recipes?
Absolutely. Every menu is custom-designed in collaboration with your chef. We regularly incorporate family recipes, cultural dishes, and personal touches — from grandmother's pasta sauce to a signature dish from the couple's first date. Bring it to your consultation.
Do you cater outside of New York City?
Yes. We serve all five NYC boroughs, plus Long Island, Westchester County, the Hudson Valley, and northern New Jersey. Destinations further out are considered on a case-by-case basis with travel fees discussed during your consultation.
What happens if our venue lacks a full kitchen?
That's our specialty. We regularly cater weddings at lofts, galleries, private residences, and outdoor venues with limited kitchen access. Our team brings portable equipment, on-site cooking stations, and full prep infrastructure to deliver the same quality anywhere.
Let's talk about your wedding.
