Every detail of the evening was impeccable:  to start, all the guests were warmly and professionally greeted with white-gloved servers of delicious drinks when they approached the cocktail room  The cocktail room look elegant yet inviting, with the placement of the bartenders, the displays of the fruit and vegetable platters, the cocktail stations and the tables, all perfectly situated.  The food was absolutely delicious, only matched by the service.  There were plenty of bartenders and servers to fill drinks, remove dishes, replace dishes, serve and replenish the cocktail stations and keep the 500 guests quite happy and well-fed.  The pass-arounds, including my favorite- the lamb chops, were just beyond wonderful in both taste and display.

Ellen | President of Woodbury Jewish Center

I just wanted to say thank you for the “magnificent job” you and your staff did last Saturday night for my daughter’s wedding. Although I only met you twice,  you probably spent a year meeting and talking with my wife and daughter. As you know being in this line of work this is probably one of,  If not , the most important days of their lives. I truly feel that you did everything possible to make our party a perfect “10”.

Nicole, I would also like to thank you for everything!!! It was such a magical wedding and it was unbelievable how smoothly everything went- thanks to you and Mariana!  All our guests complimented how beautiful the wedding was- from the ceremony to the cocktail hour and the reception.  It was a pure pleasure having you run the whole wedding!!!

Woodbury Jewish Center / Regal Caterers was by far the BEST choice we made in planning our wedding.

Nicole, the maitre’d, who also manages the caterer, was a pleasure to work with. She had such incredible attention to detail – noting any favorite dishes, allergies in the bridal party, and tailoring things to our preferences (even like making the brownies extra fudgie).

The venue also comes with a bridal attendant, Kevin. I truly don’t know what we would have done without him. He made everything run on schedule perfectly, bringing us waters, ensuring all of the bridal party was at the right place at the right time for toasts, photos, etc.

We can not thank you enough for helping to make our wedding day so amazing! It was even better than we could imagine. We appreciated how you made everything so easy, answering all my questions, and even more from my mom! It was so nice to know we didn’t have to worry about a thing in your hands and everything went perfectly. Thank you again, it was truly a magical day!

We just wanted to say thank you so much for all that Regal has done for us to make our wedding day so special! The food was amazing and the presentation was beautiful- everyone raved about the sushi bar being the best they have ever had! We couldn’t have done it without you and your amazing team! Everyone commented how much food there was and how good it tasted- they said it was one of the fanciest weddings they have ever gone to! Thank you again for everything we have a day to remember now and it was definitely worth waiting for!

Wedding of Julia & Philip

Regal Caterers at The Swan Club | June 20, 2021

Thank you to Nicole and Kevin for everything that you both did to make sure that everything turned out perfectly. Although we were very concerned about everything due to Covid- it all turned out perfectly. Nicole went over all of our details continually over the past 18 months to make sure that every I was dotted and T was crossed. Kevin was the perfect attendant who made sure that everything worked out and we transitioned from one minute to the next, smoothly throughout the evening. This coupled with the perfect florist-Andrew Pascoe and the most amazing band-Chevy and the Family, made my daughter and son-in-law’s wedding to be an event that will be talked about for years to come! Thank you for all of your love, support, and patience…WE DID IT!!!!

Michelle S.

Mother of the Bride | May 2021

Our wedding at WJC was incredible!!! Nicole is the best and SO easy to work with. The food and service are top notch. Our guests cannot stop talking about our wedding! They were blown away by every detail. HIGHLY recommend having an event at WJC!

We just wanted to thank you both again for making Aiden’s bris the most special day – even better than what we could have ever imagined. You truly surpassed all of our expectations. The room looked magnificent, the food was absolutely delicious (all the guests raved about it) and your staff was excellent. Even the mohel said that the bris was one of the classiest events he’s been to – and he’s seen many of them!

Working with you has been a dream – you’re so talented, organized, professional and kind. We just can’t thank you enough for being so wonderful and we hope to work with you again in the future for another event!

I want to thank you and your entire staff for the amazing job you did for Camilla & Jonathan’s wedding. As a repeat customer, I knew that I was going to have a wonderful experience but you far exceeded my expectations. Weddings can be very stressful experiences especially when family members from different countries. Everyone did a fantastic job of creating a lovely and stress free environment. The waitstaff was friendly, helpful and courteous. Several guests commented on how special they were made to feel.

Once again – Thank You!!

Just wanted to thank you again for the attention to detail in making our wedding literally perfect. Everyone told me something goes wrong at every wedding and to just expect it, the wedding went off without a hitch. It was a pleasure working with all of you and just wanted to thank you again. We had the most fantastic time. Our guests had the most fantastic time and partied hard like I knew they would. We even got my husband home in one piece and he was very happy with the bar. hallelujah.

Now that over one week has passed since the wedding and I am almost recovered, I would like to thank you and your staff for the outstanding job done. You were a pleasure to work with and you made everyone feel very comfortable always addressing all of our concerns in regards to planning the wedding. All advice was well taken as the venue, the ceremony, and the reception could not have been any better. We thoroughly enjoyed the evening along with our family, and of course Michael and Jenny.

We wanted to send a HUGE thank you for making our wedding so awesome. We were blown away from the moment we got to the temple. The service, the look of the ceremony and the ballroom, and the food were all incredible. So many of our guests were raving about the food during both the cocktail hour and the reception. We also had so many tell us how shocked they were that a temple could look like that! It was certainly a night that we will never forget. Thank you again for helping us celebrate our marriage! We will recommend you as long as we can.

We just had to write you and thank you for the absolutely fantastic job you did on our daughter’s wedding last weekend.  All of our friends have been contacting us to tell us how fantastic the food was, how wonderful the rooms were set up, how smoothly it ran, and what a terrific time they all had at the wedding.  Needless to say, we are thrilled to receive all the compliments, but the truth is, they really belong to all the people who made it such a special night. We were absolutely thrilled. You really did an awesome job and we are very appreciative of all of your efforts to make us happy. Thank you again, Lisa and Kenny Wilensky.

We wanted to thank you both for everything you did for Naomi’s and Rich’s wedding.  Everything was beautiful. We all had a fabulous time.  The food was delicious; Paul and I each had a chance to eat some dinner and it was great.  Everyone commented that the food was delicious and how impressive the sushi display was.  Several guests also remarked at how friendly and courteous the wait staff was, as well as the people who were working at the stations during the cocktail hour.  The cookie and pretzel bar outside was wonderful too.  We could not have asked for anything more.  Thank you so much for making it such a wonderful event!
