✨There’s something wonderfully special about a celebration that makes you feel transported✨
💍 Carly & Vince’s wedding at a grand private residence in Newfoundland in the New Jersey highlands, had all the relaxed charm of a countryside escape, complete with the bride arriving in a Clydesdale-drawn wagon 🐴💐
🍽️ Sterling Affair curated a menu inspired by the setting featuring free-range, dockside, + garden-grown bites, served as passed hors d’oeuvres, and food stations. As evening fell, mini sweets were passed to round out the celebration 🍮
🎉 Congratulations, Carly & Vince… It was a pleasure to serve you, your fam & friends!

We were pleased to be part of a special alumni networking reception.
Our team passed hors d'oeuvres, set up beautifully presented stations featuring thoughtfully prepared bites, and served signature cocktails, all designed to complement a gathering centered around connection.
The event brought together executive MBA students, graduates, faculty, and industry leaders for conversation, career insights, and shared experiences.

As we gather around the table this Fourth of July, we're celebrating the flavors of summer and a truly historic milestone 🇺🇸
Pictured: a few timeless favorites... fall-off-the-bone BBQ ribs, classic potato salad, sweet corn on the cob, crisp coleslaw, and fresh mixed berry shortcake... of course, made the Sterling Affair way.
Here's to great food, meaningful traditions, and the moments that bring us together. Wishing everyone a safe, joyful, and memorable Independence Day.
Happy 250th! 🎇🎆
