Description:
Bartleby and Sage, formerly known as Sage Events : Sustainable catering and event planning since 1997
Bartleby and Sage prepares both traditional and contemporary food, using the freshest naturally-grown produce, meats and poultry. We seek out small, family-run farms and local purveyors to bring you food full of authentic flavors. We drive fuel efficient vehicles, compost our waste and make recommendations on repurposing decor and floral.
Leslie Nilsson, founder and creative guru, has over 20 years of experience catering New York area weddings--clients hire Bartleby and Sage for our extensive knowledge of venues, menu planning and the best way to run a DIY wedding space (not to mention Leslie's diplomacy skills when mother and bride have two very different visions). Our food is entirely handmade; our staff is highly professional--but more importantly we love what we do, and it shows! (see crew picture from a crazy-fun Steampunk wedding).
Featured on The Food Network, Martha Stewart Weddings, Modern Bride, The New York Times, The Daily News and numerous other publications and television appearances.

We work with several hand picked wedding cake makers and will refer you to the right designer for your budget and tastes.
If a bride decides to bring her own wedding cake, do you have a cake cutting fee? If yes, how much is the fee?
Of course you may bring your own wedding cake; our staff are already on site and happy to cut and serve the cake, at no additional charge (we think cake cutting fees and such are obnoxious).
Are you licensed to sell alcohol? If yes, where are you licensed?
We hold liquor liability insurance, so as long as our bartenders serve the liquor, and we purchase a one day caterer's license, we can run the enitre bar for you.
Do you allow outside alcohol? If yes, what is the corkage fee?
Yes, you may purchase your own alcohol, as long as our team serve it. No corkage fee (see above for our view on obnoxious additional fees).

We work with the best rental companies in the New York area and will take care of everything at a showroom visit. The bill goes directly to you with no mark ups.
