WEDDING EXPERIENCES
Your Wedding, Your Way
A flexible, cuisine-first wedding experience shaped around your celebration, your guests, and the moments that matter most. Every menu is bespoke, prepared fresh on site, and served by a food-safe-certified professional team.
One Culinary Partner, Every Wedding Moment
Your Wedding, Your Way is designed around the way you want to celebrate. Begin with the wedding-day meal, then add only the experiences that fit your plans, from an engagement soiree or wedding shower to guest welcome refreshments, an after-party, or a thoughtful honeymoon basket.
Cuisine at the Heart of the Celebration
CATORI is a food-first, chef-owned private chef company. Executive Chef Cynthia D’Angelo develops bespoke menus around your tastes, wedding vision, service style, dietary needs, and venue.
Cuisine may stand on its own or be combined with coordinated florals, rentals, event design, and auxiliary support for a cohesive wedding experience. These optional services simplify planning without requiring clients to select anything beyond the cuisine.
