Hoag's catered my daughter's backyard wedding and they did an amazing job! They worked through some challenges that come with that kind of venue and were very professional. The food was amazing and we had tons of compliments! They even worked with our bakery to pick up the cake and deserts on the day of. We wanted our event to feel like a big family gathering and told them how important the food was and that we wanted it to be part of the experience. Bottom line is - they listened and they delivered!
We are very pleased with the catering that Hoag's did for our wedding. We had a spring wedding, and their Summer Grill menu fit perfectly with the rustic feel of our wedding. They were willing to incorporate different vegetables as a side option from what was offered on their menu, and everything was delicious on the day of. They had vegetarian and kids options, though there was a bit of confusion with the meals being delivered during our reception. There were also some add-ons that seemed a little pricey, like getting a drink station with lemonade and tea for non-alcohol drinkers. However, the over all value of their services was excellent and many of our guests raved about the food- especially the bacon-wrapped shrimp!!
I absolutely loved working with them, especially our main girl, Katie. They were super responsive to both emails & calls, let us tour the place a few times, and were very accommodating to our last minute rehearsal dinner change. They also took great care of me and my husband between the ceremony (which we had right there) and our reception: they brought us wine and small portions of all of the appetizers, so we could munch and drink away from our guests before gearing up for the reception. SO GREAT! I loved it!
My daughter had her wedding reception here recently. She was doing the planning from out of town and was very pleased that she was able to take care of most details via emails which were always answered promptly. Everyone was very easy to work with both during the planning phase and on the event day. We were given a large window of time the day before the wedding when we could come in to decorate. All the couple's requests regarding the room set-up were quickly accommodated. The food was very good, especially the appetizers. The couple chose an Asian buffet which was very tasty but did move a bit slowly. The bartender, chefs, and servers were all friendly and efficient. Overall a wonderful experience.
Easy to work with and very flexible! A lot of options available.
The staff at Celebration Hall did a wonderful job with our wedding. They were very helpful from the first meeting to discuss options. We had our wedding ceremony and reception in the same room and the staff made the transition very easy for all of our guests.
The food options were all excellent as well as affordable. Food was served hot and very presentable on the day of our wedding.
The food was great, the service was just ok. My contact person (who was GREAT to work with) left about 2 weeks prior to the wedding, and the transition to the new contact was not smooth. We had food at the wedding that we had cancelled and bbq sauce that was missing. Further, we heard her complaining to some of our guests. However, the food was delicious, and we received many compliments for it. I would get food from Hoags again, I just wouldn't work with Diane.
The place looked beautiful, the fire place provided a lot of ambiance, and it was very cozy. There was a buffet and drink stand, but the staff were very cold and never refilled our waters at the table.
From day one, my husband and I felt like we were long lost family members of the Banquet Manager, Becky. We were often greeted with hugs for our appointments. I wish we could have rented the WHOLE venue so there wasn't another wedding sharing our bathrooms, etc. but by the end of the night, we forgot they were even there!
The food was really good, but we've had several complaints about how unfriendly the staff was. They were kind enough to help work with us and our budget, but I always felt that they were bored/uninterested/wasting their time.
these guys are wonderful...we had a problem with our previous caterer and these guys created a menu for us THOUSANDS cheaper than the other guy at such short notice! they really created our perfect, ideal, dream menu that was so delicious :)
The staff at Celebration Hall did a wonderful job making our reception happen. We booked early but didn't get back in touch with them until a week or two before the wedding. They were able to do everything we asked with little notice. The food was wonderful, I couldn't have asked for better people to work with.
The food here is always amazing! They are very flexible and accomedating. I kept changing my mind on *everything* up until the day before the wedding, and they were completely OK with it
The staff at Celebration Hall did a wonderful job making our reception happen. They provided beautiful linens, and the food was incredibly good! They were very receptive to my needs and requests and happy to help in any way they could.
They made everything so easy for me. The staff that was working at my reception were so polite, so professional and the food was delicious. The waitresses and bartenders were exceptional!
They just seemed to do everything just the way we wanted it. We met with them a few times before the wedding, and things happened exactly as we had planned. The food was amazing, and I always get comments on that from my family and friends.;The only thing that was not right was a certain alcoholic beverage that we had requested was not there, but as soon as we made them aware, they went right out and got it. They weren't as well stocked in that department for the type of party we were throwing, but it all worked out in the end.
