Soiree Catering and Events

What Soiree Catering and Events does

Soiree Catering and Events is a full-service catering and event design company headquartered in Atlanta, Georgia, operating from a facility at 1281 Collier Road. Founded in Spring 2004 by Chef Mary Hataway, the company serves three primary event segments — weddings and bridal events, corporate events, and social gatherings — with event scale ranging from intimate dinners for two to large-scale productions for up to 5,000 guests. The company maintains a headcount of 11–50 employees, has operated continuously for over 20 years, and is privately held by its founder with no disclosed external investment, subsidiaries, or parent company.

The core offering is custom-designed catering combined with full event planning, design, coordination, and staffing. The product portfolio spans full-service event catering, specialty modules (hors d'oeuvres, buffet, seated dinner, chef-attended stations, dessert), a delivery and pick-up service for prepared meals, pre-designed holiday dinner packages, an a la carte appetizer service ('By The Soiree Dozen'), and family-style boxed meals ('Dinner By The Box'). Menus are described as French-inspired with cross-cuisine reach across Italian, Indian, and Southern styles, with all recipes prepared in-house. No proprietary technology platform, API, or software product is disclosed; the value proposition rests on culinary craft, chef-led customization, and operational execution.

Revenue is generated through two models: (1) quote-based custom event contracts priced by guest count, menu selection, service level, and event complexity, and (2) unit-priced a la carte items for delivery and pick-up (e.g., hors d'oeuvres at $22–$40 per dozen, mains at $28–$72 per pound or quart, holiday serves-4 packages at $245–$295). Go-to-market is primarily direct sales via website, phone (+1-404-467-1699), and email ([email protected]), supplemented by referral partnerships with over 50 Atlanta venues including The Biltmore Ballrooms, The Stave Room, Summerour Studio, Atlanta History Center, Delta Flight Museum, and Michael C. Carlos Museum. Financials are not publicly disclosed.
