Little Touches Make Memorable Parties
Something Classic prides ourselves in our Mother Earth Group garden where we grow our own edible garnishes, herbs, heirloom tomatoes, cucumbers, eggplants & host two hives of bees for their delicious honey. Our organization has been recognized in the Carolinas and nationally for our green action program, The Green Goddess Alliance where we respect our planet with our disposables, composting and local farm efforts.

Of course, no party is complete without Something Classic’s global menus, recognized in the Carolinas and beyond for our exceptional quality and presentation. Culinary Storyteller and Owner Jill Marcus brings a wealth of authentic recipes, entertaining stories and experiences from her travels around the world. Start out your cocktail party with savory butlered bites, conversation-starting hors d’oeuvres, and desserts from our in-house bakery that will leave your guests talking about your party for years to come.

Hello, Spring &
Soon Summer.
"My spring garden inspires those first dishes of the season. When I bite into a just-picked sugar snap pea, French breakfast radish or tender lettuce leaf, everything suddenly tastes a little sweeter, brighter, crisper. I want every guest to experience that first taste of spring on their plate."
Jill Marcus
Founder & President
At Something Classic, our long-standing team of food and beverage professionals design special events with an exacting eye and unparalleled service. We believe that every detail matters, from the culinary to the aesthetic to the experiential. Whether the guest of honor is royalty, a client, or a child, and whether the event fills a grand hall, a board room, or a backyard, we devote the same care and attentiveness to everything we do.
We do more than cater events. We curate experiences.
