our leadership team

nancy a. goodman | president

Her infectious laughter announces to the world her love of music, theatre, and of life itself. Nancy’s delight of chocolate truffles and a sip of champagne are only outweighed by messy pottery classes with daughter Ahmei, the golden apple of her eye. She has discovered the perfect cure for any malady is an afternoon at the beach reading Vince Flynn underneath a wide brimmed hat. After many years of paying her dues she is doubly proud of her success as a woman owned business.

Joël Thévoz | CEO

A visionary, Joel is a creative and disciplined renaissance man. Swiss born and raised, he spent his teenage years in the sunshine of Costa Rica and Mexico. Joel is comfortable behind the camera’s lens, swinging a nine iron, and scuba diving. Well read, he enjoys time with good books: discovering new travel adventures to partake in, exotic culinaria that Main Event Caterers can explore, as well as alternative medicines and health practices. A true family man, he takes pleasure in cooking for his wife, their daughter, as well as his parents Didi and Marcel.

client testimonials

The Main Event Caterers team is extremely proud of the work we do. We pour our hearts and souls into our events because we truly care about bringing people together to share important times in their lives. It’s that passion that makes us feel so honored to have been recognized by our peers over the years, as well as local and national media. While our awards and press coverage are undoubtedly some of our greatest accomplishments, nothing matches the satisfaction we feel when we get compliments from you and your guests after an unforgettable event!

  • Main Event and my Event Designer were FABULOUS!!! They were such a pleasure to work with. People commented that they didn’t know vegetarian food could be so delicious! The food and presentation were phenomenal. The head waiter took excellent care of us all night. Another thing we love about this company is their green practices, but you can tell that they sincerely care about the environment and their business’ impact and it’s not just a marketing ploy. Main Event was truly fantastic. Use them!!!
