  About US


Classic Affairs Catering Service is owned and operated by Elaine & Denny Ebaugh of Emmitsburg. We have been in operation since 1994.  We have
done very little advertising as we work otherwise outside the business. We survive by word of mouth.

Along with our staff, we dress in formal attire and do our best as a team to be helpful in any way to those we serve. We offer you a formal setting for your wedding or any other special occasion that includes glassware, and silverware. We take pride in offering food that is largely homemade.

If your event is not so formal, we do pig roasts, pit beef, BBQ, chicken, and many other picnic items. We bring our cooker and tent to your place of choice.

If you would like a stress-free day of entertaining, be it formal or informal, give us a call at 301-447-6440.

Now a A few words from the owners ...

Elaine: I am the youngest daughter of 11 children of Roy and Marie Little. I've lived in Emmitsburg all my life and so has most of my family, except one sister who lives in Alaska.

I married the love of my life, Denny Ebaugh in 1975, and we have two children and three grandsons.  My daughter Denise and her son Michael Lookingbill reside in Frederick, and my son Dennis Ebaugh Jr. and his wife Melissa reside in Blue Ridge Summit, Pa. with their son Jordan and Jacob.

I owned and Operated Hairs Inn Styling Salon for twelve and a half years but since the hairstyling chemicals and my asthma don't mix, I had to give up the business. This gave me more time to concentrate on our catering business.

As my husband and I both come from large families, our moms had to do lots of cooking to feed their hungry crews. I learned a lot from my mom in the kitchen, with her "a little of this and a little of that." Ahhhhh.... those secret recipes!!!!

Denny and I both love to cook, so the catering business comes naturally to US.

We sing in St. Joseph's Church Choir and have always loved singing. Since we both caught the Karaoke fever, we decided to add this service along with a D.J. service to our catering business. It's Known as Elaine & Denny's Classic Karaoke Entertainment and D.J. Service. We Love what we do and, as my husband Denny always says, "We make a great tag team!"

Denny: I’ve moved to Emmitsburg in 1975. I'm originally from Keysville.  I was the fourth child of nine born to Frances & Robert Ebaugh.  Since 1981 I have served as a full time sexton/maintenance man at St. Joseph's Catholic Church in Emmitsburg.

When my wife owned her hair salon and had to work evenings, I took an interest in the kitchen -- either that or starve! I liked to try many new recipes' and also my own creations. My wife and kids would tease me when they would eat the foods I Prepared with MY famous barbecue sauce (my secret recipe). "You Ought to Bottle That!!!!!!"

I enjoy cooking everything -- from fancy to fun. I especially love doing the pig roasts- We enjoy the people. Since we extended our business I leave the kitchen and dress in my tuxedo to offer my D.J. services at most of our catered events. Elaine says I clean up pretty good from apron to tux!

Our motto is, "We enjoy what we do and have fun too!"
