Our experience with our caterer, Bartleby & Sage, was nothing short of extraordinary. From the first bite to the last crumb, their culinary creations left our guests raving and our taste buds dancing. The slow-braised short ribs were an absolute highlight of the evening - tender, flavorful, and simply divine. Working with Stacey Cervellino Thorp, our dedicated contact at Bartleby & Sage, (and our day-of coordinator) was an absolute pleasure. Stacey not only demonstrated impeccable professionalism but also brought an infectious energy and enthusiasm to the planning process. She went above and beyond to ensure that every detail of our day was tailored to our preferences, encouraging creativity and offering valuable suggestions along the way. From our first meeting, working with Stacey immediately felt like working with a good friend. And let's not forget about the pièce de résistance - our wedding cake, expertly crafted by Bartleby & Sage's talented pastry chef, Hans Baang. We presented Hans with a challenge of a cake flavor combination he hadn’t made before. The result was exquisite, and it was evident that Hans poured his heart and soul into creating a masterpiece that exceeded our wildest dreams. Our compliments extend beyond the outstanding food and service for our wedding; The Bartleby & Sage team also went above and beyond to establish a genuine personal connection with us. What truly amazed us was their continued support even after the event was over. It's rare to find a vendor who not only delivers exceptional service but also genuinely cares about their clients on a personal level. In summary, Bartleby & Sage exceeded all expectations and played a significant role in making our wedding day truly unforgettable. We wholeheartedly recommend them to anyone seeking exceptional cuisine, impeccable service, and a team that genuinely cares about making your event a success.

Bartleby & Sage was the caterer on our wedding last August 5th at the Wainwright house. They provided the best hors d’oeuvres, dinner and desserts! I could not thank them enough for their great service from food planning, food tasting, cocktail hour, and reception. Leslie, the owner was very helpful in every way, she accommodated every little thing we asked. The servers and bartenders were very professional and made great drinks for our cocktail hour. Our first course was the burrata salad, everyone loved it! The main courses was amazing as well! Our wedding cake, it was made by Chef Hans, was the star of night! They were really kind to make us a very one-of-a-kind cake, which is called Sansrival cake, tasted great and so happy that we were able to incorporate my country’s delicacy to our wedding day. I couldn’t thank them enough for this very kind gesture. We also had brunch the next day with omelet station and mimosas and the chefs and bartenders made our brunch experience top notch. The food was amazing! From pastries to omelets to bloody marys. Me, my family and guests have zero complaints about this company. They provided us amazing food and great service! Thank you Bartleby and Sage for the nice wedding experience!

Bartleby & Sage is an amazing company led by Leslie Nilsson, who was a joy to work with. The team is way more than just a catering operation as they were immensely helpful to us throughout the entire process. We got married at the Wainwright House in Rye, New York on June 10th, 2023. We highly recommend the venue as well, it’s a beautiful place.

Let’s start with the food. The food was SO delicious, and there was so much on hand with nice portion sizes. We had many friends and family telling us it was the best food they have ever had at a Wedding. We also had a few special food requests given the Bride is from Brazil and the Groom is Vegan, but they were easily incorporated into the menu. B&S made a special Risotto as one of our three main meals which had vegan cheese, and in addition to the standard baguettes for the table they made a popular bread from Brazil called Pao de Queijo (essentially cheesy bread). They also made a tasty Brazilian dessert called a Brigadeiro – the Brazilians said this one of the best they’ve ever had.

Now, onto the team. The staff’s performance was flawless, and they brought great energy throughout the entire Wedding. Leslie even brought more Brazilian staff for our big day, which was extra nice. Also worth noting that Leslie and her group serve as the day-of-planner, so they coordinated everything including our early morning prep, the Ceremony, and managed all of our vendors throughout the event. It was truly executed to perfection.

Pre-Wedding help was extraordinary. From day 1, Leslie basically served as a quasi-Wedding planner. She provided us with her top vendor recommendations (all groups they work with on a regular basis), which were also exceptional. She was extremely responsive by email and always willing to chat and make occasional trips to the venue with us. We actually didn’t hire a Wedding planner and did everything ourselves, but the process was made easier and more efficient with Leslie and her team.

Our Wedding was a magical day, and we are so grateful to Bartleby & Sage for being a huge part of it. Thank you to everyone who made our big day so perfect!!
