CELEBRATION OF LIFE

When someone you love becomes a memory,the memory becomes a treasure.

Celebrating Life and Embracing the Memories

We know this is a hard time for families – too many things to do in a short period of time and under emotional distress. We can help you with menu choices and quantities, either over the phone or during a brief meeting. For larger catered receptions, our staff will set up and clean up, leaving the family free to greet attendees at your home, funeral home, hall or at our downtown restaurant, New York Style Pizza & Pasta.

Big Apple Catering can handle all of the details with one phone call. We will coordinate the menu to be served, the linen and even fresh centerpieces for the guest tables.

Receptions following funerals or memorial services range from simple light lunch of finger food for a stand up reception, to a full buffet meal with staff and beverages.

Below is a variety of Celebration of Life menu options to choose from. Of course, we are always happy to adjust the menus to make everything just right for you and your family. If you would like us to create a custom menu for you, we would be happy to do so.

To determine pricing, please contact us; as it depends on the availability of our menu items, the location, the delivery options and full service staffing needs.

Please call to schedule a convenient time to meet and discuss the arrangements. Whatever your wishes are, we will be there when the need arises.

For questions or a private consultation, please do not hesitate to contact our Director, Vivian Maltesen (250) 754-0112.
