    Scrumptious!

    The price at the New York Botanical Garden includes a lot more than just the lush backdrop. The food was sumptuous, the cake (included) was beautiful and delicious, and the service was top notch. Plus the linens, tables, silverware, and pretty much all the tables and chairs you’re going to need are all included in the cost. We received numerous compliments from our guests. Working with the catering staff leading up to the event was a dream. Our poised, attentive, and experienced coordinator had a great disposition, and the team that ended up working the wedding was polished and professional. Would give more stars if we could. We could not be happier!

    Constellation - an amazing catering company!

    We got married at the Curtis Atrium, managed by Constellation Catering. Amy Weisgal and the team were all amazing to work with as we planned our wedding. The food at our event was excellent and everything by the Constellation team was executed perfectly. Highly recommend this venue or any other venues managed by Constellation!

    Incredible Reception at Grounds for Sculpture

    Constellation Culinary catered our rehearsal dinner and wedding reception at Rat's Restaurant at Grounds for Sculpture, and we're so glad they did. The selection and quality of the food is amazing - we received compliments saying that the food was "not just good for a wedding, but actually incredible". We felt safe with all of the choices we made and were incredibly satisfied with the result. Although event planning during a pandemic is challenging, their staff was flexible and helpful throughout the changing circumstances. Would highly recommend.

    Taste Bud Heaven

    We were so blown away by our menu options with Constellation Culinary. We had pages to choose from and there was something for everyone! The presentation was fabulous and professional. From cocktail hour, to our sit-down reception, to dessert, and even late night snacks, our guests were raving about the food and how they couldn't possibly eat another thing (but then did). We worked with Lauren and she was great from the beginning! Everything felt easy and with Lauren as our point of contact, the night was seemingly effortless. Thank you to Lauren and the Constellation team for their expertise and professionalism, our bellies were extremely happy all night!

    Best caterer!!!

    We got married at the Horticulture Center and had Constellation as our caterer, and everything was incredible. We worked with Gail, and she was extremely responsive and helpful throughout the entire wedding planning process. On the wedding day, the food was so great, we had lots of our guests saying that some bites were the best they've had. The service was also excellent, everyone got their dinners in a timely manner and the bar staff was efficient and courteous. We had an amazing time and we can't thank Gail and Constellation Culinary enough for making our wedding day so amazing!

    Top notch catering!

    We were married at the Barnes Foundation, and Constellation catered the event. Not only was the food AMAZING (we are still getting never ending compliments) but the service was really exceptional, from start to finish. We worked with Heather who was incredibly helpful - we couldn't recommend them enough!

    Absolute heaven.

    We were so blown away by our menu options with Constellation Culinary. We had pages to choose from and there was something for everyone (including pescatarians and vegetarians). The presentation was fabulous, and we almost had too much for our guests to eat! Everyone kept commenting on how delicious the food was, which was wonderful to hear. The sit-down three-course meal was delicious, allowed everyone to choose their main course on the day, and included several mini-desserts. We even had a pizza food truck at the end! Everything was fresh, light, and beautifully presented. We couldn't have been happier with how everything turned out. Thank you so much, Constellation Culinary! We were in heaven.

    We had our rehearsal dinner at The Continental in Old City and it was great! Because of the family style dining our guests moved seats throughout the night and got to visit with everyone there. The food was so delicious and there was plenty of it!

    The Horticulture Center was the perfect venue for our wedding and STARR Events did a great job! Gail and Leila were very helpful throughout the planning process and were quick to respond to questions via email. The tasting event with STARR was so much fun and very helpful in terms of choosing what we wanted for our menu. The food on the day of the wedding was executed very well and all we heard was good things from the guests! Couldn't be happier with STARR on our wedding day!

    We used Starr Events to cater our wedding at the Rodin Museum, and we could not have been happier with how everything turned out. Our contact was Heather, and she was awesome to work with. Overall, our guests were very impressed with the food, drinks and the service.

    Leila and the entire STARR team made our wedding at the Horticulture center unforgettable. Working with Leila was so easy. She was responsive, professional and helped us customize our wedding. She worked seamlessly with all of our vendors and was SO accommodating!

    STARR by far has the best food in Philadelphia and the food at our wedding was no different. Our guests are still raving about the appetizers, dinner and desserts. A combination of the wonderful staff and fantastic food truly made our wedding perfect. You can not go wrong having a wedding at a STARR venue - food and service are top notch!

    The food was delicious, the linens, etc. were classy, the staff were attentive and friendly. Couldn't have asked for more. Afterwards our officiant said it was the best caterer from any wedding he's attended - that says it all.

    AMAZING food and wonderful staff!!!! Ashley Gay worked with me when I was married at the Horticultural Center in July. She was really, really great. Professional, knowledgable and sweet. The tasting was delicious and informative and the actual food the day of the wedding was perfect (mostly according to my guests, I wish I had ate more!).

    Don't hesitate in booking Stephen Starr!

    Ashley Gay & Starr Team - Wow!!! You killed it from beginning to end. Ashley you made me feel as if I was the only bride in the tri state area who was getting hitched. Your attention to details, my personality & needs were spot on. Starr Team @ Hort Center led by manager Steven (I believe) you did an amazing job. Professional to the end.

    Two weeks later and guests are still talking about the El Vez Station, amazing sit down dinner & tapas desert. You rocked it & we couldn't have asked for a more picture perfect evening. Thank you from the bottom of our hearts to the best day of our lives (And most likely our guests!!!)

    If you love food as much as I do, you know that Stephen Starr is the best in Philadelphia. And let me tell you, their catering is AWESOME! We had Stephen Starr events for our wedding at the Horticultural Center and it was like a dream come true! Ashley and Leila are great!!! The on site coordinator Stephen, was by far one of the BEST PEOPLE to have at our wedding. He made sure everything was perfect and on top of that, he had food for us at the end of the night! You know you have a wonderful wedding when your guests can't stop talking about the food, entertainment, and venue. THANK YOU STEPHEN STARR EVENTS!! YOU ARE THE BEST!

    When we found out Starr Events was the caterer at our venue, we were sold. Everything was perfect, from the initial amazing tasting event down to the last bite of dessert. The food was phenomenal and our guests are still raving about how amazing it was. Working with Ashley was truly wonderful and she did such a great job at making our big day perfect, from the food to the table linens to the backup plan in case it rained, we knew we were in good hands. I would highly recommend Starr Events without a moments hesitation. Thank you for being a part in making our wedding day perfect!

    Stephen Starr is excellent. Their service is exceptional and I really enjoyed working with them during the planning process. Everything met or exceeded our expectations. They catered to every single one of our requests. The food was incredible - all of our guests raved about it. They really went the extra mile to meet all of our needs, and I'm very thankful to them for making our wedding a wonderful occasion for us and all of our guests.

    Stephen Starr served as caterer for my June 15, 2013 wedding at Greystone Hall and if there were an option for 10 out of 10 stars that is what I would give them. Starr already had such a fantastic reputation prior to my husband and I choosing them as our caterer and we were blown away by both the taste and presentation of the food on our wedding day. Three weeks later and our guests continue to rave about the food! From the pink lemonade served at our cocktail hour to the serving of the cake, the whole evening ran seamlessly. Starr's cuisine so incredibly delicious and beautiful and the entire planning process with Leila and Ashley was fantastic. I cannot recommend a more spectacular caterer to use!

    We had our wedding at Cairnwood Mansion and Leila from Stephen Starr went above any beyond all expectations to make our whole wedding absolutely PERFECT! She knew the venue inside and out and helped us plan a seamless event from start to finish. She was really responsive to all of my emails and questions, and really made me feel completely relaxed. The food was incredible and the whole event was put together perfectly. I cannot think of one thing I would have done differently. The catering staff on the day above gave exceptional service, and my parents were particularly impressed with how attentive they were. I could not imagine a better caterer.

    Our wedding food was AMAZING! We are still hearing comments from our guests about the food and there literally has not been one negative comment! My husband and I are food LOVERS, so one of the priorities for our wedding was the FOOD, and we made the right choice. We chose Stephen Starr EVENTS Quick Service Catering, which fit our super tight budget perfectly, but the food tasted like a million bucks! The service leading up to our day was amazing as well. We worked with Stephanie and she was absolutely wonderful in every way. She gave us so many suggestions on the food and ways to get the most out of our tiny budget. It really felt like she truly cared about us and our wedding day and she put all of her efforts in to make it perfect. We had a full taste test to make a final decision on what we wanted to choose for our menu, and we seriously had the hardest time deciding. Everything we tasted was absolutely delicious and Stephanie sat there with us the whole time and went through every little detail with us to make sure everything turned out perfectly on our wedding day. We also had them cater breakfast for our immediate family and wedding party the morning of the wedding, which was also amazing!! Stephen Starr EVENTS is incredible and we are still raving about it to all of our friends and family and recommending to ALL!!

    Stephen Starr is one of the most renowned restauranteurs in the area, so we were shocked to find out how reasonable his catering prices were in comparison to other caterers/venues. The value and quality is unmatched! We were able to offer our guests delicious, unique options without breaking the bank. And the service is top notch! We were so well taken care of throughout the night by the very experienced staff.

    I had nothing but wonderful compliments on the food from my wedding. Everyone said they do not usually remember wedding food, but this was memorable. With cheesesteaks and pretzels to pasta and more, my guests had a lot to choose from. The tasting prior to the wedding was unbelieveable. We had our own private tasting, and nothing was held back. We tried SO much food I do not know how to describe it. We had two 4 full course meals. Plus cake options. We felt like kings and queens when we were tasting and they sent the LEFTOVERS home for us. They were very friendly and took every option into mind when planning the wedding. They were not just my caterer but almost my wedding planners as well :)

    We got married at the Fairmount Park Horticulture Center, where Starr Events is the exclusive caterer. Leila and Gail (from Starr) made our day special and run smoothly. We had visited the venue countless times for appointments and events prior to our wedding. But when we stepped inside on our wedding day, we were blown away by how amazing everything looked. It looked the best I'd ever seen it. We were especially impressed at the level of professionalism from the staff and the attention to little details, like refolding the napkins and replacing the olive leaves (which we had placed on each napkin) whenever guests got up. They were prompt in getting out the food and drinks quickly. Our guests have not stopped raving about the venue and the food (some said it was the best wedding food they've ever had and we, of course, agree). And the signature cocktails cleaned up! Overall, they were a pleasure to work with and if you are getting married in the Philly area and quality of food is a top priority for your event, I would definitely recommend going with Starr.
