We feel that were so lucky to have found Jean-Jaqcues to cater our wedding. The food was fantastic, the people were very nice, and the whole reception ran seamlessly. Our day-of coordinator was very thorough and helpful. I would definitely use them in the future for other catering needs

From the beginning, Jean Jacques' Catering was professional, responsive, and a pleasure to work with. My husband and I loved working with Mary Scelsi-- she is a 'class act' and knows what she is doing. The Bronxville Women's Club was perfect for a wedding of our size-- about 75 people. The space is unique and beautiful. The day of our wedding, we had HEAVY RAIN, so we decided to tent the outdoor courtyard for cocktail hour. We were so happy with the way the tent looked! I was not a fan of the chairs that came with the space, so we rented chairs (which I recommend if you have room in your budget). My only hesitation for giving Jean Jacques 5 stars, is that the day of the wedding, I felt like the maitre d was not in sync with some of our requests. My matron of honor and her husband are vegan, but they brought out lasagna as their meal (which of course, had tons of cheese on it). I felt badly that their meal ended up being rice (from the sides) and green beans. Also, the maitre d kept confusing who was the mother of the groom and who was the mother of the bride-- since my mom was heading back to a hotel and my mother-in-law was going home, I had arranged for everything (toasting flutes, cake topper, etc.) to go home with my mother-in-law, but everything was given to my mom instead (and, everything was placed in black garbage bags, so you couldn't see what was inside). However, overall, Mary Scelsi was so wonderful that I HIGHLY recommend using them. The food was delicious, and Mary will go out of her way to make sure your wedding day is special!

JEAN JACQUES CATERING IS BEYOND AMAZING! My husband and I were looking for a unique venue in Westchester County and came across the Marros Estate in Rye, NY. We made an appt to see the venue, and immediately fell in love not only with the location, but the entire staff...they COULD NOT have been friendlier or more accommodating! Every step in the process was effortless! From Jeannette to Jens to the MD and the black tie, white gloved wait staff. The food is simply FABULOUS and presented so elegantly! You do not have to worry about a thing during planning and esp on the BIG DAY if you choose Jean Jacques to plan the biggest day of your life! This is a family owned/operated business, and when you work with them - you really do feel part of their family! A++++++++++
If you have any questions about them, PLEASE feel free to reach out to me...this summation does not even do their service justice - they are beyond phenomenal! : ) Meredith

Yum! The food was delicious (go to a free tasting and see for yourself!). People have asked me for their recipes! The staff was friendly, organized and super helpful. I would use them again in a heartbeat.

Before we decided to go with Jean-Jaques we knew we needed to attend the food tasting. We had never been to an event that they catered and being in the food service industry we needed to make sure the food was fantastic!
From the moment we met Jeannette and her staff we felt like family. They were all so warm and professional. And thankfully the food was amazing!
My dealings with them during the wedding process were delightful. They were always responsive, helpful and very flexible.
Unfortunately, the day of the wedding I didn't get to taste much of the food from cocktail hour. However, all of my guests were very immpressed by it and are still talking about how great it was. They all say the quality and quantity were out of this world! Even though I missed the cocktail hour food I did get to eat the food during the reception and it was soooo good...especially the penne vodka and scalloped potatoes! Oh and I cannot forget the cake!!!! It was absolutely beautiful and delicious!
The staff was amazing...they were very attentive and everything went very smoothly.
I would highly recommend Jean-Jaques for any event. Also, if you are in Pleasantville you should stop by their store and grab some lunch (or a pastry or two)!!!

Jean-Jacques' Culinary Creation's food was amazing! Where to even start- The food was everything I imagined and everyone keeps talking about the salmon and potatos. Some of their packages include the linnens, food, open bar, and servers in tuxes!

AMAZING! We used Jean Jacques for our wedding at the Rowsley Estate in Scarsdale and I could not be happier! Jeannette was easy to work with, very friendly, completely organized. We attended the free tastings and the chef even came out and offered to cook anything we wanted. In his words "it's your wedding... if you have a family recipe you want there, i'll make sure we make it for you." Just incredible. The big day... smooth and perfect! The entire staff was incredible from beginning to end... and the pricing... the best in the area!

From the very first time we met Jeannette from Jean-Jacques, we knew that we wanted her company to cater our wedding. After the free food tasting we were completely blown away. They offer a wide range of locations we could choose from to get married. We decied on the Rowsley Estate at the Scarsdale Women's Club. The mansion was gorgeous and the grounds very beautiful. Jeannette was very easy to work with, flexible and always answered questions in a timely manner. Jean Jacques also made our three tier wedding cake (lemon/raspberry mouse). The cake was light and one of the best I've ever had. The wait staff was very professional, nice, and efficient one the wedding day. A very special thanks to Jeannie (Maitre'D), who organized everything at the day of the wedding. We couldn't have had such an amazing wedding without all your help. I would highly recommend Jean-Jacques for your event.

Jean-Jacques was probably my favorite vendor throughout the entire wedding planning process. They were very easy to work with, flexible, they offered a free tasting BEFORE booking and returned my emails/phone calls promptly. They offer fantastic quality cuisine at very affordable prices. Their wait staff was very professional, nice, and efficient. I would highly recommend Jean-Jacques for your next event. I only wish they had a regular restaurant where I could go have dinner!
