Willow and Sage Catering is an ideal choice for Bar Mitzvahs in New Jersey, offering personalized menus with fresh ingredients, flexible options for all age groups, and full-service event coordination. Their team provides thoughtful service, decor rentals, and accommodates dietary needs, ensuring a smooth, stress-free celebration for families across the region.
Every family has its own traditions, and we take pride in honoring them through food. Our culinary team creates menus with fresh, seasonal ingredients, blending modern American flavors with your preferences and dietary needs. You’re planning a formal sit-down dinner or a lively buffet for teens and adults, and our chefs make sure each dish feels authentic to your celebration.

We design menus that keep everyone happy, from younger guests to adults. Kids love stations like sliders, mac and cheese, and sushi bars, while adults often enjoy grazing tables, carving boards, and signature entrees like braised short ribs or pan-seared salmon. Every plate is prepared with care, and vegetarian or gluten-free options are always available.
Our team handles every detail so you can focus on your guests. From setting up specialty linens and flatware to coordinating service flow and timing, we make sure the event runs smoothly. You can choose from buffet, plated, or dinner station formats, each designed for comfort and style. For larger groups, we recommend one bartender for every 50 guests to keep service effortless throughout the evening.
We offer rental enhancements like gold flatware, colored glass chargers, and specialty linens to help your decor stand out. Desserts are always a highlight. Cake pops, tiramisu, and warm cookies with milk add a touch of fun to the night. For families hosting at a partner venue, we collaborate with trusted spaces across New Jersey, including Temple Beth Miriam in Elberon and The Asbury Hotel in Asbury Park.
