Bon Soir Caterers reports rising 2026 wedding season bookings in Brooklyn, as couples increasingly favor boutique wedding caterers over large-scale banquet operations.
-- BROOKLYN, NY — Bon Soir Caterers, a full-service off-premises catering company based in Brooklyn, announced this week that it has seen a marked increase in bookings for the 2026 wedding season, alongside a broader shift among engaged couples toward boutique wedding caterers rather than large banquet-hall operations. The company said inquiries for custom, small-format catering packages have grown steadily since the fall booking period began, reflecting changing priorities among couples planning weddings across Brooklyn and the surrounding tri-state area.
The wedding catering industry has seen renewed demand following several years of postponed and downsized ceremonies, with couples now placing greater emphasis on personalized menus and locally sourced ingredients rather than standardized banquet fare. According to data from The Knot's 2023 Real Weddings Study, average wedding spending on catering and rentals remains one of the largest single expense categories for couples, underscoring why menu selection and vendor choice continue to carry outsized weight in event planning decisions. Bon Soir Caterers said this trend has led more couples to seek direct consultation with caterers earlier in the planning process.
Bon Soir Caterers, which has operated in the region for nearly five decades, said its booking calendar for spring and summer 2026 dates filled at a faster pace than in prior years. The company attributed part of the increase to demand for its self-service and full-service menu formats, which allow couples to scale catering to guest counts ranging from intimate gatherings to larger receptions without committing to a single fixed banquet package.
The company also pointed to growing interest in its vegetarian and vegan menu offerings, as well as its barbecue-focused division, The Smokin Grill, as couples request more varied menu structures than traditional plated dinners. Bar service packages, including beer-and-wine and custom cocktail options, have similarly seen increased requests as couples look to coordinate food and beverage service through a single vendor rather than separate contracts.
