Stray Cats Catering

This is Shaylen’s mother. I am still livid about all of this. This was my first wedding with one of my daughters and boy did I learn my lesson! Be sure to look at reviews first! Be sure not to give a gratuity until after you go home and find out if everything was done correctly or not. When I opened up his so-called “Fair Food”boxes he made for me it was the cheapest thing I’ve ever seen and I am absolutely embarrassed that I gave them out to our guests! I spent $10,000 with this caterer and I assumed all of the leftovers would be boxed up and sent home with me and they were not. When I asked him about it, he said he gave it to a soup kitchen because he didn’t know I wanted them. How many people would spend 10,000 on food and nit want to take the leftovers home?! I’m guessing he takes it back to his restaurant and uses it. I’m still furious! Still waiting over a year for him to call me back! Sonny, I’m still waiting for the $1800 gratuity to be sent to my Venmo, you atleast owe me that! No amount of money will replace the embarrassment of what you did or better yet, what you didn’t do on my daughters special day. Shame on you. Sonya G Shaylen’s Mom

Sonny talks a big talk to the bride (me) about how on my special day he would prioritize my wishes and make good on all his promises. He did the exact opposite and ended up costing us $10,000. The following are all promises Sonny said he would keep and discussed many times in detail what would be delivered on my wedding day. As for drinks: We were promised 2 versions of our 1 signature cocktail, a hot and iced version of this cider with greenery garnish and a cinnamon stick. The day of the wedding he only gave us 1 cold version of the drink with no garnish at all, no rim, no hot version. As for food: We assumed we were going to be able to have leftovers from our buffet that we paid for and have adequate labeling for our buffet. We were given leftovers in sizes too small for a toddler and our guests didn’t know when they were eating alligator due to inadequate labeling. As for the food truck: Sonny had worked with our venue and that venue’s coordinator for many years and knew good & well the road to get there. He decided the day of the wedding that the food truck (that would hand out our wedding favors) couldn’t make it’s way down that trail when he KNEW it either could or couldn’t travel to the venue. Wedding favors: the wedding favors that were supposed to be delivered out of the food truck were meant to be an assorted box of carnival food all fresh: cotton candy, kettle corn, corn dog, small water bottle… Sonny gave us boxes of food from dollar general- slim Jim’s, smart food white cheddar popcorn, and some mints thrown into to-go boxes. After the catering disaster he gave us, multiple family members tried to call him several times to discuss what he did and he never returned the call. Once my mom finally got a hold of him, he said he could call back in 30 minutes to talk more… it’s been over a year of silence from him. He will not return calls or texts. We were never reimbursed for the food truck or totally inaccurate wedding favors. NEVER do business with this catering company.

They showed up 6 hours late , did not communicate through the day , after they said they would be there in 20 minutes it was almost 3 hours before they arrived , when they arrived we ordered a gator they did not provide what we paid for . Everything had to get pushed back almost 2 hours due to the tardiness and even after being late , there was ZERO sense of urgency . Then when the food was finally ready to be served it was all cold because it was all sitting there waiting on the rest of the items to be prepared.they also did not bring any utensils to serve with or to put the food on . They had to run to the store to get what they could find and bring it back 0/10 recommend this catering company if you want to have a stress free wedding , what a Nightmare !!!
