New York Wedding Catering – Flexible Service for Every Kind of NYC Celebration

Key Takeaways

Planning a wedding in New York isn’t about following tradition — it’s about making your own. Some couples get married in a church on the Upper West Side, others host friends on a rooftop in Brooklyn, and a few throw full receptions in public parks, art galleries, or even their own homes.

That’s what makes New York wedding catering so special. You have to meet each couple where they are — and build a menu and service plan that fits the space, the timing, and the energy of the event.

Green Apple Catering works with couples all over NYC. We’ve served plated dinners in historic ballrooms, passed appetizers at micro-weddings in Queens, and drop-off brunch trays for backyard receptions in Staten Island. The one thing every wedding has in common? Food that brings people together — and the calm that comes from knowing your caterer is already one step ahead.

Every NYC Wedding Is Unique — Your Catering Should Be Too

Weddings in New York aren’t one-size-fits-all. Some couples plan a full seated dinner with traditional courses. Others want a cocktail-style evening with small bites and an open bar. Many find themselves somewhere in the middle — casual setup, good food, and space for dancing without the formal pressure.

We work with venues of all kinds: churches, lofts, brownstone backyards, rooftops, gardens, and multi-room halls. Each space comes with its own set of challenges, and we’re ready for all of them.

Our team is trained to set up in tight spaces, navigate shared building access, and manage timed entries and exits. Whether you’re doing it all in one place or splitting your ceremony and reception across boroughs, we’ll help you keep the food experience seamless.

Menu Styles for the Way You Celebrate

We don’t lock you into a rigid menu package. Instead, we build meal formats that match your style and your space.

Here’s what we offer:

• Plated dinners for formal receptions
• Buffet or family-style meals for relaxed, shared experiences
• Brunch menus for daytime weddings or after-parties
• Cocktail-style setups with passed bites and social pacing
• Drop-off options for DIY weddings and micro-gatherings

Want to keep things light and elegant? Our Passed Hors d’Oeuvres are perfect for cocktail hours or rooftop venues where guests want to move and mingle.

Need a no-fuss option for a smaller reception? We’ll deliver hot, labeled trays right to your venue — ready to serve, no staffing required. Browse our Drop-Off Platters to see what’s available.

Some couples even opt for Lunch Box Catering for pre-wedding events like getting-ready brunches or rehearsal-day meals.

And if your wedding is tied to a season or holiday — or you just love seasonal ingredients — take a look at our rotating Seasonal Catering Menus. We offer fresh options that reflect the best of the season and the style of your event.

Staff, Rentals, and Setup Options

Depending on your venue and vision, you might need just the food — or you might need the whole team. That’s why we offer a full range of support services that can be scaled up or down based on your needs.

For couples planning a hands-on or DIY-style event, we can deliver food directly and let you take it from there. But if you want help setting tables, serving drinks, or managing the timeline, we’ve got you covered.

We provide servers, bartenders, and on-site event leads who understand how to manage everything from setup to service to cleanup — all without getting in the way of your celebration.

Need gear for your space? Our Party Equipment Rentals include tables, chafing dishes, beverage displays, table linens, and more. Whether you’re in a raw loft or backyard garden, we’ll help make it guest-ready.

Some couples also want to bring a personal or cultural twist to their menu. Our Themed Catering Events are built around flavor, family, and fun. We’ve done everything from taco stations to Mediterranean platters to dessert tables that double as decor.

Whatever your plan, we’ll help you shape the catering around it.
