Holly Safford started The Catered Affair in 1979, using the kitchen of her home in Scituate, Massachusetts and a four-slice toaster oven. Today, the company — now run by Holly and her sons Andrew and Alex Marconi — employs more than 300 highly trained, full-time catering and event specialists.
A passion for excellence, imagination, and attention to detail.
From our executive chef and his culinary team, to our experienced waitstaff, to our in-house design team, we all share the same passion for excellence, imagination, and attention to detail. No matter what your event, you’ll experience our commitment to perfection at every step— from the initial planning session until the last plate is washed and put away.
