The Approach
Ncami’s Catering & Decor was established in 2021 with a simple but ambitious purpose: to bring genuine culinary excellence and warm, professional hospitality to every table we serve. A proudly 100% black woman–led enterprise, we've grown from a small, dedicated team into a full catering and event decor company trusted across the public and private sectors.
Every event starts with listening — to what you and your guests need. Then we plan meticulously and execute with the care that turns a meal into an experience: consistency, hygiene, presentation, timing, and a team that carries itself with pride on site.
“Outstanding food and outstanding service should never be compromises — they should be standards.”

Kind Words
“The table looked like something out of a magazine — and the food tasted like home.”
“Our guests are still talking about the lamb. And the draping. And everything, really.”
“She walked in, looked at the room, and cried. That was the moment we knew.”
“Professional, warm, and completely unflappable. Our most-complimented event in years.”
From the moment guests walked in and saw the table, the tone was set. The combination of textures, colours, and flavours was genuinely extraordinary.
Camille D.Anniversary Dinner, 16 Guests
I didn't want something stiff — just beautiful and generous. The decor matched our theme exactly and the portions were more than generous.

Every single element felt considered — the palette matched our decor, the styling was stunning, and the service was warm from start to finish.

You host. Your guests are wowed. We handle service and — if needed — the breakdown afterwards.
Common Questions
For weddings and large ceremonies, 2–3 months gives us room to do our best work. Smaller dinners and showers can often be arranged within 2–3 weeks — and it never hurts to ask about a date.
Always. Vegan, vegetarian, gluten-free, and other specialty diets are part of the menu conversation from day one — never an afterthought or a sad side plate.
Yes. We're based in Newcastle and serve the wider KwaZulu-Natal region as standard, travelling further afield — including multi-day events — by arrangement. Travel costs are quoted upfront, transparently.
Absolutely. Book catering only, decor only, or the full experience. Many clients start with one and add the other once they see the moodboard.
You'll hear from us within 24 hours. We'll set up a quick call or WhatsApp chat, then send a tailored proposal with menu ideas, decor direction, and a clear quote.
