MEET THE OWNER
Marisa Roberts inherited her love of cooking from her grandmother, Olive Grace, who casually entertained guests with elegance. The creative attention to detail is a tradition that has been passed on in Marisa’s family for generations and is reflected in every menu. She loves being such a special part of our couples big day!

REVIEWS
If you want THE BEST catering in Kansas City - look no further, it's Olive Events. Olive was recommended to us by our wedding planner and we didn't ask for another recommendation because our tasting meeting absolutely blew my husband and I away (I mean, I would drive all the miles in the world to have their truffle mac n cheese). From the first meeting, the Olive team asked us what our favorite restaurant and menu item was in Kansas City and they dreamt up the most amazing buffet and hors d'oeuvres menu for us that was enjoyed by all. And not only enjoyed by all, my husband and I heard from probably 50 guests it was the best wedding meal they've ever had - one quote was, "you crushed the food game." From mouthwatering sriracha chicken to pesto salmon to their incredible steak skewers that's one of their staples, the mains were top notch. But not only that, we had such great side items that a few of our vegetarians friends commented it was the best dinner they had experienced at a wedding. And, Kelsey, our catering coordinator, was a dream to work with! When we tasted our wedding day menu two months out, Kelsey was attentive to our asks (asking about our VIPs, what my husband and I wanted to eat, etc) but she has the most bubbly personality that fit right into how we wanted our wedding to be. Overall, Olive is top notch and if they ever opened up a restaurant I would never leave - seriously, I would expect a booth to have my name on it because I would only go there. We ate our wedding leftovers for days after and even then it was SO good. Thank you, Olive, for making our wedding the #foodieexperience we wanted and for blowing everyone away with your culinary expertise.

Olive Events did a fantastic job for our wedding! From the very first contact to the final clean-up at the wedding, Kelsey and her staff were professional, pleasant and experienced! Actually, they were perfect!! Kelsey was great during the planning. She was energetic, fun and enthusiastic to work with. Her experience and creativity were evident in the suggestions and directions she gave us. I feel she got to know Jeanie and I and then custom tailored our menu to fit our personalities, style and participants. Her suggestions for dinner stations and hors d'oeuvres were right on point. The quality of the food was incredible! We had many, many unsolicited compliments from our guests on the deliciousness of the food! From the salad shakers that kept the kids going back for more salad if you can imagine, to the variety on the stations, the whole set-up was perfect. When Kelsey learned we had some younger kids attending, she recommended ‘happy meal’ type boxes for them that were a big hit and much appreciated by the parents. Kelsey brought a big team with her and the service was great! They were professional, experienced, pleasant and always available when needed. They handled the food set-up, serving, cake service and table clean-up professionally, perfectly and unobtrusively. They did an excellent job! I mentioned compliments from our guests earlier. This was my favorite. “ Those were the best crab cakes I have ever tasted . . . and, I’m from Maryland!” I enthusiastically recommend Kelsey and Olive Events for your wedding and other special events!! They helped make our reception very special!

Olive Events far surpassed our expectations for our wedding! We had no idea what we wanted, or how we wanted to do it! Olive Events was very responsive during the initial planning, and recommended an amazing menu based on our likes and dislikes! We never even tasted the food before the wedding, we just had confidence in this amazing group of people! They did not disappoint! Probably some of the most amazing food I had ever had! Additionally, I had no idea what was going to happen with anything that was left over, I did not realize that they packaged up the few leftovers that we had! This is probably a standard service, but I felt like it was above and beyond! Our family and friends will be raving about this food for a long, long time! Thank you for making our wedding day amazing!
