Wedding Reception

Melissa and John were AMAZING! My daughter had her wedding and the whole process was so smooth with them. They were very accomodating and did everything they could to help me. We wanted a high end reception with great food and great Liquor. The food was exceptional and actually exceeded our expectations. Many of our friends commented not only how great the food tasted but also the presentation. Also the appetizers were very good and abundant. No one left hungry.
We will definitely be using them again.
