Event Catering · Paris
A grazing platter buffet with floral design brings together shareable platters and seasonal bouquets arranged for the occasion on a single table. Rosy Paris, a Parisian event caterer, prepares the platters, arranges the flowers and sets everything up on site on the day of your event. The format is designed first and foremost for companies: receptions, launches, offsites and client evenings.
01 – The concept
The grazing platter buffet, the flexible format for corporate events
The platter buffet rests on a simple idea: generous platters, ready to share, arranged around a floral centerpiece that gives the table height and character. Guests help themselves standing up, mingle and talk. No chafing dishes, no on-site cooking: setup is quick and the venue stays free.
In this salon with ornate moldings, the black lacquered platters were spread across a sand-colored draped tablecloth, at the foot of an autumn bouquet: calla lilies, burgundy and gold chrysanthemums, yellow celosia, goldenrod and eucalyptus. The flowers frame the platters without getting in the way of service.
“The flowers set the tone, the platters make you hungry.”
02 – For companies
A buffet in the colors of your event
Showroom, atelier, meeting room, rooftop or barge: the platter buffet adapts to the venue. The palette of flowers and linens is chosen with you, to match your brand or the theme of the evening.
For this reception in a haute couture atelier, we chose sea-green tablecloths, blue checked linen, eucalyptus, baby’s breath and white chrysanthemums. On the table: fine charcuterie, cherry tomato skewers, cheese cubes and tarts to share. For Lancôme, we created a healthy buffet around longevity, and for Lesieur, an event staged with Table Festive.

03 – The flowers
Bouquets arranged by Rosy Paris
At Rosy Paris, floral design is part of the buffet. We arrange the bouquets ourselves with seasonal flowers: warm tones and tinted foliage in autumn, whites and greens for a more understated mood, powder pinks in the warmer months.
On this barge, a bouquet of carnations, white roses, lisianthus and hydrangeas accompanied fine charcuterie, puff pastry bites and cakes to share, overlooking the canal. The arrangements are designed for photos: they give the buffet height and make it recognizable on your guests’ social media.
