“My husband and I knew she was the one – the minute we spoke to her and we just can’t say enough about how great she is!! She spent a lot of time with us during the tasting to hash out a perfect timeline for the wedding and made sure we had all the right rentals for the venue. She and her team handled every detail, from the amazing sliders to the delicious passed hors d’oeuvres. Our guests couldn’t stop talking about how great the food was. Plus, Marylyn managed all the various food trucks so smoothly that everything ran like clockwork. Her attention to detail made our wedding day perfect. We’re so grateful for her dedication and hard work. Highly recommend!”

“From the very beginning Marylyn showed an incredible attention to detail in crafting and perfecting our entire wedding menu. Her lovely staff were a dream to deal with. They were polite, professional and extremely qualified. We received nothing but compliments the entire night from our guests on the food. It really meant a lot to us that Marylyn and her team went above and beyond to ensure we had the most perfect wedding day imaginable. I highly recommend her to anyone looking for a 5 star team of chefs!”

“We knew immediately once we booked Juste Hors D’Oeuvres to cater my daughter’s wedding that we had made the right decision. Marylyn was warm and genuine in all of our meetings and interactions before the big day. The day of the wedding was amazing. Marylyn and her staff who were delightful, all zipping around getting things set up. Professional from beginning to end and I can’t say enough about how friendly and accommodating each of them were! Now for the food! It was superb! Appetizers, entrees and desserts and the beautiful wedding cake were top notch. I’m still getting compliments from our guests on how delicious everything was. I couldn’t be more pleased with Marylyn and how perfectly she and her team executed everything. Service and all of the food and drinks were over the top. Thank you for helping to make my daughter’s wedding truly memorable and magical.”

“From the start, Marylyn was a joy to work with. You can really feel her passion for what she does, and it shows in the incredible food.
She guided us through everything, helping us with rentals, alcohol, and so much more. Her advice was invaluable, making the process so smooth and stress-free. And let me tell you, the food was out of this world! Everything from the appetizers to the main course and the scrumptious desserts was delicious.
Marylyn and her team truly went above and beyond to make sure we were taken care of, and they made our day feel so easy and fun! By the end of it all, we felt like they were part of our family. We can’t wait to work with them again for our next event! Seriously, I can’t say enough good things about them!”

Marylyn did an amazing job helping us throw a wedding for 150 people in our backyard. We had never hosted a party of this size, and her knowledge and expertise went far beyond the fantastic food she served! Highly recommend her!

5-STARS What a night!
“Marylyn and her team are true professionals and absolute experts in their craft. Every detail was so thoughtfully handled, and the entire day was absolutely lovely from start to finish. They took care of everything with such grace and ease, including some last-minute surprises. When unexpected rain rolled in, they managed it beautifully without missing a beat. I had forgotten to arrange for our cake to be decorated, and somehow, they made it happen at the last minute, and it looked stunning! They even recommended a wonderful babysitter to look after the kids, which made a huge difference for us and our guests. She was so kind and attentive, and the kids were happy and well cared for the whole evening.

From the food (which was delicious!) to the decor and flow of the event, everything was just perfect. Marylyn and her team are the whole package: professional, warm, prepared for anything, and genuinely dedicated to making your day unforgettable. It was worth every penny, and I can’t speak more highly of the experience. Thank you for making our day so special!”

5 STARS: Highly recommend!
“We worked with Marylyn to cater our outdoor wedding. She was communicative, helpful and honest, and made great recommendations for things that hadn’t even been on our radar. She was kind and knowledgeable throughout the whole process and helped us figure out the best options to meet our needs. Marlyn worked with us to save money where possible, without sacrificing quality. Sharii and the team who were at the wedding the day of were all delightful and on top of every detail, not to mention the food was delicious. Highly recommend!

“Marylyn and her team did a great job at our wedding reception, held at our home. The food was delicious and prepared on time according to our plan. The staff was attentive to our needs and those of our guests and they did a great job cleaning up – would never have known they were there. Thanks for a great event!”

“Marylyn helped us plan every single detail from the second we met! Her team delivered an amazing cocktail hour, family style dinner, dessert and wedding cake! We highly recommend Marylyn to caterer any event. She has the skills and knowledge to make your event memorable. We are still getting compliments a month later on all of the food and service provided by Marylyn’s team!”

“We are still dreaming about the food from our wedding, and it’s all thanks to Marylyn and her incredible team at Juste Hors D’oeuvres! The appetizers were such a hit—especially the crab cakes with chipotle crema, watermelon/Manchego skewers, and fig and blue cheese flatbread. People couldn’t stop going back for seconds (and thirds!) But hands down, the star of the night was my favorite, the pumpkin lasagna! It was subtle and magnificent, our guests talked about it for days and my mother-in-law stopped to tell Marylyn too how much she enjoyed it! Beyond the food, what truly made the experience so extraordinary was how incredibly friendly and accommodating Marylyn and her catering staff were the whole time. From day one, Marylyn went above and beyond to make us feel comfortable, she is so responsive and welcoming. We didn’t consider custom drink requests as early as we should have but they were so accommodating, they didn’t miss a beat. Their energy was infectious, and the team’s attention to every detail made the night entirely perfect. If you’re looking for a caterer who not only serves incredible dishes but also makes you feel like family, you absolutely need to book Marylyn at Juste Hors D’oeuvres. Her warmth and professionalism made all the difference, and we couldn’t imagine our day without her. Highly recommended!!!”

“Marylyn and her team were simply fantastic! Marylyn is so knowledgeable and helpful in the wedding process. She’s straight forward and was a great guide in helping us plan our menu. She helped us manage things like seating charts and helping us navigate which other vendors we would need to work with for things like where to buy ice from… to rental companies. The food was simply fantastic! I’ve attended so many weddings where the food was mediocre at best, I left my own wedding stuffed! I would highly recommend Marylyn to anyone looking for outstanding help, service, knowledgeable staff, and let’s not even mention the fantastic food!”

“We would highly recommend Juste Hors D’Oeuvres for your wedding or event. Marylyn demonstrated a level of professionalism and dedication that set her apart. Unlike other caterers, she took the time to understand our needs, preferences, and budget constraints during an initial call. Throughout the planning process she was attentive and quick to respond to communications. She took care of rentals and offered valuable advice for the floor plan and timeline. She welcomed us into her home for the tasting – which was delicious. We had a lot of flexibility in creating the menu with her and she was mindful of our budget throughout the process. Day of – Marylyn and her team were amazing. Everyone was SO pleasant and organized. The setup, set down, coordination, and execution of the catering went smoothly, requiring little direction from us. The cocktail hour included plenty of spectacular hors d’oeuvres and drinks served promptly. Everyone had great things to say about the dinner! Juste Hors D’Oeuvres was very mindful of our guests allergies and dietary restrictions. In summary, Juste Hors D’Oeuvres, led by Marylyn and her fantastic team do a great job and really care about you and your event.”

“Marylyn was more like a full-service event planner, as she took the time to get to know both my husband and I, as well as our full plan for our wedding day. She invited us into her home for a tasting, where she also took the time to get to know us, how we met, our families, and how we envisioned our wedding day to play out. Throughout the planning process, she worked with the company we planned rentals from, including the tents, tables, chairs, linens, appliances, etc., and she triple-checked all items to ensure every detail matched our vision for our wedding. She asked just about every question imaginable, and helped make sure we weren’t missing any important area/item. Her incredible organization, communication, responsiveness, and attention to detail aside (!!!), the food that was served on our wedding day was the true stand-out. Just wow! We chose five passed appetizers; roasted chicken and eggplant parmesan for the two mains; as well as a host of side dishes; and everything was absolutely delicious. My guests are still raving about how amazing everything tasted! By working with Marylyn, I felt such a calm in my heart, knowing that she would take care of everything and ensure our wedding reception was flawless. My husband and I were able to relax and really enjoy our special day. From the bottom of my heart, I want to thank Marylyn and her entire staff for their kindness, organization, attention to detail and their passion.”

“The food was delicious, elegantly presented, substantial, and truly crowd pleasing at a reasonable price. Marylyn was there every step of the way, in advance, to guide us through with countless professional recommendations. The staff could not have been more helpful, welcoming, or accommodating to every need – I had several needs myself and each was met with above-and-beyond service. The bride herself called the entire experience “magical.” What more need be said?”

“Marylyn and her team were phenomenal from start to finish. They were extremely helpful and patient and helped us have an awesome wedding. The food was amazing!”

“From the start, Marylyn was not only the caterer we needed, but an amazing wedding guide. Her take charge attitude mixed with her compassion and desire for a couple to have the best wedding possible were true gifts. The first conversation where she laid out what we could do to make mine and Wes’ day magical; her attention to detail; her warm and welcoming demeanor at the tasting; her wonderful team (shout out to Ty and Colleen); and the way she pulled everything together to create a truly delicious menu that exceeded our expectations are why I would recommend Marylyn and her team to anyone! They know weddings, this team. And they know brides and grooms. Listen to Marylyn’s advice and guidance. Trust her. Because the way she goes above and beyond, the way she gives her all for your wedding, and the experience she offers—that’s the kind of woman and team you want making sure every detail comes together for your special day. Thank you, Marylyn and team! Our wedding day went so smoothly and was made more lovely by your presence.”

“Marylyn and her team were just simply amazing. Marylyn worked tirelessly even before the actual wedding date to ensure everything would be perfect on the day of. She is responsive, professional and caring . All our guests left happy with full stomachs, and we received so many positive comments and compliments about the food. Marylyn and her team made our wedding even more memorable and special with their professional service and delicious food.”

“My wife and I wanted a tent wedding at a private residence and had NO idea where to even begin with the small details that had to be arranged. Marylyn took us under her wing and made sure that every detail was thought out and perfectly planned! Her communication was superb, and she is just the sweetest, most professional person we could’ve found to work with. We needed to stay within a budget, but wanted an impressive and gourmet menu – she helped us to do just that. Her food was beyond delicious – our guests raved about the perfectly cooked Filet Mignon and the sweet Citrus Salmon; the appetizers (chicken skewers, carrot fritters, coconut shrimp) were phenomenal. She was always available by email or phone anytime we had questions or concerns. She helped us to coordinate with the tent rental company and kept things moving along smoothly. You will not regret using this fantastic small business for your catering needs!”

“The staff was professional, courteous, and most importantly fun. They danced behind the bar and buffets and were quick to help out and were just a gracious and kind staff. The food was INCREDIBLE. We’ve had so many guests tell us about how delicious the food was after the fact. Everyone knows that wedding food can be hit or miss. Even a stamp of approval from the head matriarch of the wedding (grandma)!! They were also prepared to deal with anything thrown at them on day of the wedding… eg. parking debacles, cake stand malfunctions and some other issues that arose. Marylyn was also one of the very few vendors that was willing to work with us within our budget, for which we are incredibly grateful, especially considering that we got married near Times Square on New Year’s Eve!!! We could not have done it without her as our caterer!!”

“Marylyn went above and beyond her hired role for our wedding and not only treated us as one of her own but truly felt like family. Our guests went on and on about the food, and steak specifically. Thanks so much Marylyn and staff!”

“I reached out to Marylyn in January for a July wedding, and she promptly got back to me. After our call, I knew I had found the perfect caterer. Her level of expertise all while tailoring the menu to our liking and remaining available for a weekend tasting – even with her insanely busy schedule – did not go unnoticed. Marylyn is superb and absolutely everyone at the wedding loved her and her team. Manny (chef) was a joy to work with as well. Marylyn transformed into our event planner, caterer, mom (made sure I ate day of), friend, etc. Simply put, she’s one of a kind and I’m looking for any excuse to book Juste Hors D’Oeuvres once again. Also, want to point out we had last minute adjustments that Marylyn seamlessly accommodated sparing me the headache. We also had 3 seniors at the wedding and Marylyn’s team ensured they were taken care of; incredibly attentive. Bilingual staff was a bonus! Marylyn, we love you! P.S. People are still raving about the ceviche!”

“I had a great experience with Juste Hors D’Oeuvres for my wedding. Marylyn was super helpful, sweet, and thorough with everything I needed for my wedding. The food was delicious, and my family and friends loved the staff! I would definitely recommend for any occasion!”

“Marylyn at Juste Hors D’Oeurves was an incredible help in planning our wedding… Marylyn went above and beyond to help us in a unique venue situation with a first-time venue – she spent a lot of time with us and with the venue coordinating all of the details. She was extremely communicative and responsive throughout the process. She created a menu that was perfect for us (I am gluten free, so she found ways to incorporate that for me!) I also really appreciated that Marylyn was conscious of our budget – she was great at recommending ways to save, while also calling out things we would definitely need given our venue. I would highly recommend Marylyn!! She is the best.”

“Marylyn worked WITH us and helped plan through the details of our day. She kept our vision and budget in mind and offered great advice and creative solutions… Response time was good, this woman is on top of it. The menu had wonderful variety and tasted great — we especially loved the stuffed mushrooms and salmon steak bites. We received so many compliments from guests for the staff. They are so friendly, kind, and attentive. Aside from that they ran our day efficiently and accurately. It’s easy to see they are a team that works well together and knows what they’re doing. Bottom line: Marylyn and her team are great, very reasonably priced, and will make your day a deliciously memorable one.”

“It was such a special day, everything I imagined and better, and all of this was made possible by Marylyn and her team, who went above and beyond for my wife and me. Our venue turned out to be smaller than I thought, but that didn’t stop Marylyn from doing the most. Did I mention this was a gay wedding, hosted by the brides who knew nothing of weddings? Marylyn was so respectful and catered exactly to our needs, everything from budget to schedule to even hosting responsibilities. The food was amazing (everybody raved about the duck breast that was on the menu), the setup went incredibly smooth (again, she worked with a small Brooklyn venue) and everything was beautiful. And even more the big day, she was so thorough with her communication and planning, I cannot thank Marylyn and her team enough. Thank you, thank you, if you ever have an event that needs to be catered, contact Marylyn and her team now!!!!”

“Marylyn gave us a tremendous amount of help, advice, and experience as well as coordination with the rental vendor which frankly would have been impossible for us. It was clear within minutes of meeting her that she knew how to plan and execute on a wedding. Day of, the staff arrived and were friendly, responsive, professional and above all: kind. Every dish prepared for our wedding was outstanding in quality. All the food was ready on time as well, and we were free to have fun. I couldn’t recommend this company enough!”

“Marylyn worked closely with us to design a menu that reflected our multicultural relationship and ceremony, and the guests raved about how delicious the results were. She also went far beyond that in helping our planning – visiting our home to help us figure out how to best use our space, taking responsibility for managing our rental contract, and connecting us to other vendors of exceptional quality. On the day of, her staff were both highly professional and a pleasure to interact with. They gracefully handled all of the unexpected surprises the night held and were super friendly and accommodating for all the requests coming from us and from our guests. A good example of how attentive and friendly the Juste Hors D’Oeuvres team was that they prepared plates of appetizers for my wife and I, just to make sure that we had the chance to relax and feed ourselves (it’s easy to forget when things are so busy)! We couldn’t recommend them more highly.”

“Let me tell you, they are so much more than Just Hors D’oeuvres! We had an extremely personalized experience for our wedding, down to a menu that was built from scratch to fit our budget’s needs and express who we are as a couple, to an individualized tasting with Marilyn that left us so excited for the final meal, to the day of, where Marylyn and her team were so on top of everything, and our guests wouldn’t stop raving about the food! We had a brunch style wedding, so when people are raving about smoked salmon and brioche French toast, I can’t imagine how divine a a full sit-down dinner would taste! I couldn’t be more happy with the outcome of our day, and I highly recommend Juste Hors D’Oeuvres for any event.”

“Kate and I just wanted to say thank you for doing such an amazing job at the wedding. Apologies we weren’t able to respond to you sooner. We are just coming down from the wedding in general 😃.

Guests talked about how great the food was, It means a lot that everything went so well and hope the cleanup after wasn’t a problem at all with the venue.

I know I can speak for Kate in this as well, but it was great working with you as the experience we had allowed us to really focus on the day. There were no issues at all besides people wanting to get up more than 2-3 times for food. Everyone talked about how good the food was. Our wedding turned out perfect and if we have any of our friends who plan to have a wedding, we definitely plan to forward them you and your team…”

“Marylyn catered our wedding at The Barn at Orchard Hill Estate in Harriman, NY. The food and venue were amazing! Our guest list included quite a few world-traveling foodies. They repeatedly commented how delicious the food was. Our 3 main dishes were: -Poached salmon with a dill crema sauce on the side, -Marinated and Grilled Beef Tenderloin w/Horseradish Crema on the Side -Roasted Chicken w/White Wine/Thyme/Garlic and Lemon We had guests whose preference ranged from rare to well done. The marinated steak was cooked perfectly for each of them. All 3 dishes were a hit and were made to perfection to satisfy everyones’ palate. Marylyn was an absolute joy and easy to work with. She made our wedding spectacular. We will definitely hire her again. I highly recommend Marylyn to anyone who wants the food for their special event to be unforgettable.”
