Catering Client: Mullica and Kevin

Event: Wedding for 150 guests

During our consultation, we discussed finding ways to incorporate both Mullica’s Thai and Kevin’s Guyanese cuisines. On a sunny day in April, we set up in the kitchen of 501 Union in Gowanus. The menu we put together was just as fun as Mullica and Kevin. After the ceremony, we sent out lots of bite-sized snacks during the cocktail hour: crunchy spring rolls, sticks of chicken satay, and comforting Jamaican beef patties. As guests sat down for dinner, they were greeted with Sriracha bottles at every table and colorful peanut slaw.

Dinner was served family-style with platters piled with roasted chicken, vegan lemongrass ‘beef’, pineapple fried rice, and mashed yucca. It was so rewarding to see everyone laughing and passing plates down the long tables. What made it even more special: Mullica designed the signs, menus, and canvas banners herself! Classy, clean, and verdant with leafy table runners.

When the music started getting louder, the biggest surprise arrived. The garage door opened the front of the venue and a Van Leeuwen ice cream truck drove into the space next to the dance floor. You could order anything you wanted! At the end of the night, I indulged in a cherry sundae with my crew.
