Chez Hay Catering

absolutely the perfect space for our reception. Adorable, not too big, but big enough to fit the 215 guests we had. I can't imagine having our day in any other venue. It was perfection.

h. Dana and the rest of the staff answered the million and one phone calls, emails and the drive-bys leading up to our event with great patience and professionalism. The set up day they never hesitated when we asked for the small things that get overlooked as your packing up all the decorations you've been hoarding for the last year, even getting the mop out themselves when the grooms aunt pointed out that the dance floor was overly sticky. The wedding day itself the staff was beyond helpful! When we had some unRSVPd guests show up they quickly helped set up additional chairs. We had collected vintage silver ware for the cake serving but for some reason it ran short and they provided us with some nice looking plastic to finish with. The bar tender was soooo sweet, I didn't get her name, checking with me when they were running low on the alcohol That was our initial purchase but had some on reserve- it was hot! and they were thirsty!- pouring the champagne we had brought in for the bridal party and the parents table for the bridal toast. The carving station was really good, their chef touching base with the guests. We did have to search for some salt and pepper but the servers did find some for us. The staff set up,and removed the buffet tables quickly and quietly and did a good job of keeping the plates cleared and water carafes filled- again, it was HOT!- at the end of the evening the staff helped us clear out the space dancing around with the family that was left enjoying the end of the evening. They accommodated the rental company picking up chairs and pipe and drape on Monday. The only thing we didn't like were the prices on some items..coffee, tea, lemonade at $16/gallon; a 25% charge for staffing and a $15 corking fee per bottle... And that we were unable to take any leftover food with us. We were able to work around these fees but they were surprising. In the end the Bride and Groom were happy and that is all that matters! We had a great time here! And thank the staff for all the extra effort they put in for us!

pful right off the bat. The day of our wedding everything went so smoothly. The staff was so friendly, helpful, and flexible. They worked with us on last minute changes, made us feel at ease, and did everything with a smile. We have gotten so many compliments from our guests about the food (everything tasted spectacular, you can't go wrong) and the venue itself. We honestly could not have asked for a better wedding reception, it was everything I dreamed it would be!!!

s absolutely beautiful. They were very helpful and attentive when I needed assistance. There were only three things I would have changed. 1. I was really disappointment they didn't dim the lights for my first dance with my husband. 2. If I am paying the amount I am for food and service, servers should not be wearing black skinny jeans and bandannas. I'm definitely not against these things in real life as I wear them myself. But this isn't about you looking cute and standing out. You need to look professional. 3. I had guests complaining that the servers were rude and felt that they were rushed in finishing their food and drinks. The servers also started breaking down tables while we were all still dancing on the dance floor and this really offended me. It was only 9pm and we had the venue until 12 am. I feel that in rushing to clean, they made a lot of the guests think that the reception was ending early and as a result, they ducked out early. It is a wonderful place. Just communicate your expectations and standards and you will be fine.
