Crafting Culinary Excellence for the Elite from Grounded Galas to Airborne Elegance We, at Emily's Events, customize everything to your tastes.

Emily's Events is an escape from the tired, monotonous catering companies that confine their clients to a menu. If you're craving it we can cook it. If you have guests at an event that suffer from food allergies, we can accommodate them. If you are looking to throw a themed party, our menu will highlight that theme and your guests will be blown away! We can create a custom menu designed to your ex

act specifications based on our first meeting with you in your home. We sit with you and discuss your likes, dislikes and desires. Once we plan out the food for the evening, the only thing else you need to worry about is the outfit you want to wear that night. We are a full service catering and event planning company and we'll assist you as little or as much as you'd like. We are a word of mouth only caterer. Most of our clients live in the Silverleaf, DC Ranch, Desert Mountain, and Paradise Valley areas. Our food is so top-notch that we cater for most of the private jets out of the Scottsdale Airport. However, we pride ourselves on our ability to always stay within your budget. Our commitment is to inspire people with our food and impress them with our professionalism.

To all the mothers…

To the ones who rise before the sun, who carry the weight of the world with grace, who love without limits and give without asking anything in return—

To the grandmothers, aunties, and godmothers who’ve stepped in with steady hands and open hearts—

To the mamas in waiting, the ones longing, hoping, and praying—

To those who’ve lost their mothers and feel that quiet ache in the soft corners of today—

To the mothers who’ve lost, and still find a way to mother with fierce, unwavering love—

To the bonus moms, chosen moms, single moms, and double-duty dads—

To the women who lead, who nurture, who heal, who protect—

Today is for you.
We see you.
We honor you.
We thank you.

Happy Mother’s Day, from all of us at Emily’s Events 💐
May your day be filled with love, grace, and the recognition you so deeply deserve.

🌟 Night One:

- Octopus Salad with Pancetta Lardons + Lemon Vinaigrette
- Half Roasted Quail with Spiced Honey + Carrots
- Prime Strip Steak with Pink Peppercorn Brandy Sauce
- Deconstructed "Ice Cream Cookie" with Peach Compote + Raspberry Coulis

🌟 Night Two:

- Spring Chopped Salad with Green Goddess Dressing
- Crispy Snapper with Spring Artichoke Capanade
- Roasted Lamb Chops with Baby Carrots + Hazelnut Gremolata

🎙️ We had the best time chatting on The Business of Us Podcast—sharing our story as partners in both love and in perfectly planned parties. ✨

What started with a sandwich shop (thanks, Rick 💪), a catering dream (hi, Emily 👋), and a whole lot of late-night conversations has grown into a life and business we’re truly proud of.

We opened up about:
💡 Navigating conflict without bringing the heat to the kitchen
📊 Why we live by the 51/49 rule
🎭 Knowing when to lead, when to listen, and when to just take a walk
🙌 And how a daily high five keeps us laughing through the chaos

Don’t Make These 5 Event Planning Mistakes! (We’re looking out for you! 🥰❤️)

Planning an event? Whether it's an intimate dinner, a luxury wedding, or a high-profile corporate soirée, a few common missteps can turn your dream into a logistical headache. Here’s how to keep things smooth, stunning, and stress-free!

1️⃣ Forgetting the Little Things (AKA, The Magic Touches ✨)
You know that moment when a guest walks in and just feels how special everything is? That’s the magic of details! Custom signage, gorgeous table settings, a menu that tells a story—it’s the little things that leave a lasting impression. Don’t skip them!

2️⃣ Not Setting (and Sticking to) a Budget 💸
Falling in love with all the beautiful options is easy (trust us, we’ve been there). But an unstructured budget can lead to stress later. Break it down—venue, food, décor, entertainment—and be realistic. The best events balance elegance and smart planning!

3️⃣ Skipping Unique Action Stations 🍽️
Your guests want an experience, not just a meal. Instead of a predictable buffet, elevate your event with interactive chef stations. Think a handmade pasta bar at an Italian station, sizzling shawarma wraps made to order, or a seafood station with fresh-shucked oysters. Giving guests choices makes the night feel more personalized and exciting!

4️⃣ Not Communicating Clearly with Vendors 📞
Your event team is your dream team! Make sure you’re all on the same page with clear expectations, timelines, and must-haves. Regular check-ins and written confirmations go a long way in making sure everything comes together exactly how you envisioned.

5️⃣ Not Having a Backup Plan (Because, Life Happens) 🔄
Weather, last-minute changes, or that one guest who forgot to RSVP (but still shows up)—things happen! Having a contingency plan means you stay cool, calm, and collected no matter what. A little backup planning now saves a whole lot of stress later.

The goal? A flawless, fun, and unforgettable event. We’ve got you covered! What’s the best (or worst) food station you’ve ever experienced at an event? Let us know! 👇

17/03/2025

A huge thank you to FlexJet for your kind words! It was truly a pleasure bringing this event to life with our five incredible food stations—from a gourmet grazing table to sizzling Southwest tacos, flavorful Middle Eastern comfort food, and our famous "Tipsy Tasties" station (yes, pork wings!). And of course, we wrapped it all up with decadent sweets.

Your team was amazing to work with, and we can’t wait to create more unforgettable dining experiences together. Here’s to more smooth flights and even smoother events! ✨✈️

09/03/2025

Which food station would elevate your next luxury event? ✨

A self-serve picky bits station boasting the finest imported charcuterie, cheeses, and Mediterranean dips 🧀 -OR- 🍝 an Italian action station where a chef personally crafts butternut squash ravioli, chicken parm bites, and Italian meatballs right before your eyes.

✨ We'd love to know: which one would you choose to WOW your guests? ✨

07/03/2025

We're bursting with joy for Traci and David—congratulations on your engagement! Our team was honored to cater your celebration, creating a feast that reflected your love story. 💞

Our self-serve spread dazzled with Italian Charcuterie & Imported Cheese, Mediterranean Antipasti, and all the accompaniments you could dream of. 🧀🍇

And how could we forget the Italian Action Station whipping up Chicken Parm Bites, Butternut Squash Ravioli, and Italian Style Meatballs—all crowned by an “Engaged AF” Cake that stole the show! 🍝🇮🇹

We’d love to know—which dish stole your heart? 💜
