us! He even sent over a plate of appetizers to us during cocktail hour to make sure we didn't miss any of the food we were paying for.

We did not receive the cheese platter or the plantains we ordered for our event. I specified to the owner that cilantro is a NO food, so I was shocked and angry to see cilantro covering every single piece of chicken when it came time for dinner. My husband, who is a chef, believes that the cilantro was thrown on last minute to try to cover the gray color of the chicken, which happens when food sits in hot boxes for too long. We paid for an on-site chef, so I am not sure what that person was doing since the food was not prepared at our site which has a full kitchen. The food tasted nothing like our tasting. I only ate two bites of food at our wedding, which is a pity since we paid $6000. The staff was in the kitchen most of the event; they were late in removing the chafer lids and they were nowhere near our dessert table when it came time to serve our guests. Two of our friends had to go to the kitchen to request forks for the dessert table so that our guests could eat, and our guests served themselves dessert, even though our contract specified differently. The staff did not set our dessert platters on the lifts properly, so our dessert fell on the floor, but once again, they were not available to assist us since they were in the kitchen. We were also charged for spoons and appetizer plates even though we didn't have either. One staff member, an older lady, was particularly rude to some of our guests, including my Matron of Honor/sister and myself. She didn't care about service; she only cared about removing the linens so she could leave and letting my sister know that she was in the way. We met with the owner after our event to discuss our disappointment. She refunded us $200 for the missing cheese platter and wished she would have been there for our event; us too.

the amount of wine we are bringing wasn't enough, we got more and it ended up being unused and not having enough beer. If you know your guests, don't take all the advices your caterer give you.

ther of the bride, and snapped at various members of the wedding party. Also, they forgot to make one of the dishes!! Their bartender, though she was trying hard, did not know how to work a keg and ruined the beer made by the bride and groom's brewer friend. It is not worth the risk!
