what we do.
“one cannot think well, love well, sleep well, if one has not dined well”
— Virginia Woolf
Corporate Events
We specialize in full service corporate events and functions, ranging from private dinners to awards shows, and everything in between. Creating clean, unique, and timeless menus along with our ability to operate the intricacies of events seamlessly, makes us stand out amongst the rest.
Weddings
We love love, and we love weddings! With our customized approach to creativity, we turn couples’ wildest dreams into a reality. Nearly two decades of experience will speak for itself. To choose Contemporary is to be a part of our family, and we take care of our family.
Social Events
Many of our guests come back time and time again. It starts at the wedding, then we see them at birthdays, at baby showers, and then we party at a mitzvah... How incredible is it that we get to be a part of life’s big and little moments. We can’t wait to celebrate with you.
Full Service Production
Beyond our great food, delicious cocktails, and exceptional service, we truly are experts in our field. From staffing and service models, permitting and logistics, custom fabrication, talent, and so much more, we offer full service production as another level of support for our guests. Ask us all the questions! We have your back.
Retail Operations
We have been lucky enough to be a part of retail operations since Contemporary began. We currently operate five retail food concepts and a full service bar in one of the largest luxury equestrian parks in the world. We have also operated a variety of retail projects; House of Sephora, Revolve, Menlo Park Charity Horse Show, and the Van Gogh Museum (just to name a few).
Consulting & Special Projects
Contemporary is often trusted with special projects around the country. We are LA Times’ culinary event partner for events such as Taste of LA and Food Bowl. Annual production involvement for events like Baby2Baby Gala and Neon Carnival support our clients in creating amazing experiences. Our clients want Contemporary involved, even without food & beverage.
