Meet Alex, The Face Behind The experience

There is an unseen rhythm to every unforgettable gathering—the way light settles on a table, how a pour slows just before the toast, the way a guest exhales when they realize everything has been considered. At the center of that rhythm is the quiet force behind tastings. With a presence that’s more felt than announced, she moves with intention, listening closely to what each moment calls for. This is not simply about food—it’s about how people feel when they arrive, and who they become as the evening unfolds.  Alex is this curator of how tastings moves.  She has gone through decades seeing what needs to unfold and moving with that to curate this business 

I have spent my life at the table. Watching how people move, how conversation swells and recedes, how the right dish, the right glass, the right silence can shift everything. This isn’t work. It’s instinct really.
-Alexandra

“With Tastings, it’s never just an event—it’s the feeling that everything, somehow, already knew you.”

Cocktails

Whether spirit-forward, zero-proof, or somewhere in between — each pour is crafted to fit your moment. No templated menus, no throwaways. Every cocktail is curated specifically for your event, because at Tastings., every detail is the whole story

Chef's Curations

This isn’t catering. This is composition. Every bite — designed, sourced, and plated to reflect your story, your season, your night. Our chefs build menus from the ground up, because true curation starts with listening.

Experiences

It’s not just what’s on the table — it’s who’s around it, what’s in the air, the way time seems to bend. From the first pour to the last plate, we orchestrate every element to feel seamless, rare, and entirely yours.

Built on Craft. Driven by Connection.

A Collective of Culinary and Creative Tastemakers

Founded by Alexandra Morris and built over two decades, Tastings. is more than an event company — it’s a gathering of artists, chefs, stylists, and service professionals devoted to creating moments with meaning. From our signature Dînatoire service to our chefless collection and roaming dinner formats, everything we offer is tailored, intentional, and deeply personal.

We’re proud to be a women-owned and led company, shaped by a multicultural team that brings global perspective and personal warmth to every plate, pour, and placement. Whether in a private home or a grand space, we don’t replicate experiences — we design them from scratch, for you.

Because at Tastings., luxury isn’t loud — it’s lived, shared, and remembered.

“The food was exceptional and the fabulous staff kept the different, delicious food coming all night.”

My son-in-law is a professional chef himself but I convinced him to use Tastings to cater his wedding celebration which was continuous hor d'hoevres and cocktails for 4 hours at a very elegant venue in Manhattan.

“To be clear, the food was some of the best food we have ever had.”

Everyone raved about our specialty cocktails. Definitely try the Pisco Sour if you get the chance. I wholeheartedly recommend Tastings NYC for whatever event you need catered.

“Thanks for coming through for us, and for being so reliable and professional.”

This order was a little bit last-minute but Kenwyn consistently kept us in the loop with our order and stayed on top of all our changes and requests. The on-site attendees raved about the food and the service was top-notch.

Step Inside the Spring Look Book

A season of color, texture, and timing — seen through our lens. The Spring Look Book is a curated collection of scenes, settings, and flavors that defined the season. Inspiration, intention, and the details that made it all unforgettable — captured and bound, just for you.

“...full of thoughtful suggestions and honest answers that made us feel truly heard."

The chefs put together a menu that I still dream about. The cocktails were mixed to perfection, and the service was seamless from start to finish. What stood out most was how deeply the team cared. They moved with ease, anticipating what we needed before we even asked. It felt like having a trusted friend orchestrating every moment — but with the precision and polish of true professionals.

— Bonnie P.

Kind words

It’s Not Decor. It’s Dialogue.

Every Detail Says Something.

A perfectly placed stem. The napkin folded just so. A room that doesn’t just look beautiful — it feels intentional. At Tastings., tablescapes are more than aesthetic. They’re immersive. Every element is curated to reflect your story, mood, and moment — because we believe beauty only matters when it means something.

BEHIND
the COURSE

With gentle encouragement and an art director's eye, I collaborate with my couples to create effortlessly editorial images full of pure love, stunning backdrops, and natural moments (with just enough guidance!)

Light is my biggest inspiration, and I find weddings to be complex, joyous, fashion-filled, emotional, utterly beautiful celebrations that I can't get enough of.

Tablescape Curation

Design That Speaks Before You Even Sit Down.

Every object on the table holds a purpose — and a point of view. From florals to flatware, linen to lighting, we don’t decorate for decoration’s sake. We curate to create emotion, atmosphere, and memory. Tablescape curation at Tastings. is about spatial storytelling. Where guests are drawn in. Where colors, textures, and placement shift the mood — subtly, masterfully.

It’s never just a table. It’s a scene. A stage. A promise of what’s to come.

The Best Stories Aren’t Told — They’re Served.

Because the most unforgettable events aren’t rehearsed — they’re composed, curated, and deeply personal.
