Balducci's created a beautiful and delicious cake for our wedding! Every step in the process went smoothly, from the initial appointment to delivery they provided friendly services, with a variety of options for us to choose from. The cake tasting was a blast and confirmed our decision to hire them! Guests raved about our four tier chocolate and raspberry mousse vanilla cake, even asking for seconds. Thank you Balducci's!

John was everything a good DJ should be: he kept the dance floor packed all night (and we even had a small crowd), he would check with us any time he wanted to play something different, and he played all of our requests. He's also an excellent MC, with a good, easy-to-listen-to voice. Even though we didn't end up taking them, he offered us many different options, too, including a small jazz ensemble for the Cocktail Hour, that really wouldn't have cost us that much more. John knows how to read a crowd, time the slow and fast songs based on the energy in the room, and give a feeling of momentum to the party. All of our guests keep raving about what a great time they had, and we attribute most of that to John!

I’ve has always enjoyed food, cooking and hospitality ever since I was young and helped my grandmothers to cook home-grown, fresh meals straight from their gardens. I attended Le Cordon Bleu College of Culinary Arts and received training in culinary arts and then went on to receive a Master’s of Management in Hospitality degree from Cornell. I worked as a Front of House Manager at several DC, Maryland and Virginia restaurants before transitioning to catering two years ago. I love to help plan big events and enjoy making these memorable moments extra special for my clients.
