tastyplates catering and event planning

Kate is an outstanding professional that provides excellent service and I would recommend her to anyone. While her work is not cheap, you get what you pay for. Our wedding went off without a hitch. She's very calm, organized, and warm.

Kate at tastyplates is amazing! I love her, and the food is super yummy. Oh my. I wouldn't have had my wedding any other way. She made us feel comfortable, and we laughed a lot. I especially loved how quick she responded to any questions I had, and the value of the whole shabang was superb. tastyplates makes me want to have more parties.

I had a unique wedding, and Kate provided unique services, to say the least. We didn't want a sit down meal or anything else that could be deemed "traditional" - and Kate helped not only with our food choices, but gave advice on decor, furniture selection, etc., AND helped set everything up day of. She was amazing. The quality of the food was fantastic, my guests all raved about it. PICK TASTYPLATES!!!

The entire crew from Tastyplates was a delight to work with. They were incredibly friendly and accomodating. Everything was planned and organized quickly and without any issues. Everything was wonderful.

We used Tastyplates to cater our rehearsal dinner this summer and they were amazing. Kate was incredibly professional; thought of and took care of every single detail. We felt completely at ease in her hands. Chris is an extremely talented and creative chef. Everything from the cornbread and chorizo stuffed clams, to the grilled shrimp with peach basil relish, to the whole grill smoked chicken with their special bbq sauce was fantastic. Both the execution and presentation was great. The night went perfectly and all of our guests raved about the food. Not only did they do a great job, but they are also really nice people who were very easy to work with during the entire process.

Kate is so great to work with! She is super friendly, calm, and good at her job. The food tastyplates serves is amazing, way better than traditional 'wedding food.' I would recommend this business to anyone in the greater Boston area- they rock!

Kate is an AMAZING caterer. She is everything that you hope for and never expect to find: she really listens to what you want and does everything she can to make it happen, and she always has fantastic suggestions and ideas but never makes you feel pressured to use them! She makes it seem like anything is possible (and always for a reasonable price), and she is open to everything. Every time anyone in our wedding party talked to her, she made us feel relaxed, calm, and excited about the event. We trusted Kate so much that we left many of the details to her, and I'm glad we did, because she anticipated every desire perfectly and followed through on all ideas flawlessly. She was also so much fun, and made even the most detailed and stressful decisions enjoyable and relaxing. I cannot say enough about how much we loved working with Kate.

Kate was amazing to work with! She provided great service and valuable guidance throughout the planning process and was willing to do whatever we wanted in order to make our wedding special. Kate was always quick to respond, and never left out a detail - making us feel like we were her important to her. I was also really happy with the great staff that work at our wedding, all were very friendly and did everything they could to make sure our guests had a great day. javascript:submitForm();

Kate's catering and event planning were by far the easiest and best part of my wedding preparations. She made everything simple and fun, took care of all the little details, and the result was amazing. The wedding reception went off without a hitch, and everyone raved about the food and the service. I would trust Kate with any event. She's the best!

Kate is a good listener and does a great job getting to know her clients so that she can help them create a menu that suits their tastes, budget and venue. She wowed me with her preparedness and returned my phone calls promptly. While she is a true professional, her enthusiasm was palpable and while we were working together it felt at times as if I was talking with an old friend. She was open to our ideas and when we had questions about food she was willing to let us do a second round of tastings, which was so generous and helpful. She is top notch and on the day of the event she is unflappable, our event ran perfectly even though my husband and I were running about a half hour (which in wedding time is a big deal) behind the schedule that we had laid out prior to the wedding.

For our wedding we wanted to have a very hands-off approach during the day. In the months leading up to the wedding Kate was great about helping us make decisions on everything from cake to table cloths, but most importantly she took care of everything during the day without needing to get our input. We let her take control because we trusted that she would make the right choices. If you are the type of couple who want to have a fun and relaxed though professional wedding, Kate is your pick. She eliminated all of the stress that could have arisen for any number of things throughout the day. If you are flexible about the small stuff and want to save yourself the hassle of managing the craziness, you will be in great hands with Kate. She is a veteran with veteran staff, and it shows.

Kate Economides provided excellent, personalized service and was a joy to work with--she made wedding planning fun!

In 2008, Kate helped my husband and I pull off the near impossible. Despite the recommendations of various wedding magazines and websites, we decided to get married in Cambridge less than a year after our engagement in order to be able to include my brother who was shipping out to Iraq. Kate and her endless list of contacts helped us put together everything from the outdoor seating for the service to the exquisite food in less than 8 months. Fast forward to a year and a half later and we’re still receiving compliments from family and friends for hosting such a great event! We absolutely could not have done it on our own and I highly doubt anyone else could have done it as well as Kate. Her constant communication and dedication to our vision for the day was more than I had hoped for. I can’t thank her enough for the most perfect day of my life and I whole heartedly recommend her to anyone looking to plan an event to be remembered.
