"I have a team of Bartenders on my Roster but sometimes they are not always available. Whenever I am in jam, I can email Custom Staffing and count on them to send me a Bartender who shows up on time and ready to work. Their service is amazing and I highly recommend them. Their Servers are really something else and I have seen them in action at many parties Tray Passing & Bussing all night with a Smile!"

The company was quite involved in meeting all the details and planning of the reception catering venue. But when the day of the event arrived, they fell far short. The table cloths were too short, did not reach the ground, and only half of the tables were able to be covered. I (the groom) and the best man had to drive frantically around the morning of the wedding trying to find a last minute party rental store to match our table cloths then rush back to the reception site with them. It was a nightmare. I would not recommend this company to my worst enemy.

Custom Staffing responded with the following comments:

We refunded you the extra $47 dollars you spent at the rental store because the rental company we outsourced for tablecloths made a mistake and delivered the wrong size tablecloths. (as you know we cater food & supply event staff but we do not have rentals & that is a separate vendor)
Since your party planner was at the event site 2 hours before our arrival time for catering, she should have gone to the rental store. F.Y.I. when there is an event planner involved they are supposed to deal with rentals.
We threw all the rentals (plates, glasses, silverware, linens, etc) in free of charge to you since you said you were on a tight budget. In doing this we cut into our profit by $600 bucks. Also we provided you a free
beer & wine bar.(alcohol, cups, ice, ice tubs, napkins) Normally any caterer charges additional fees if they cater the drinks too. It appears all of the "Freebies" we provided to you were overlooked. We were busy loading all the food, alcohol, supplies etc into the catering van so were unable to have time to drive back to the valley to the rental store since
we are in Culver City & your event was in Arcadia & we wanted to be on time. The event planner should have driven to the local rental company in Arcadia. (that's why you hired a planner to deal with the vendors)

Custom Catering & Custom Staffing made my special day exceptional. The food was
delicious and not commercial tasting, the servers & bartenders were on top of things and attended to all of our guests (350 total) they worked within our budget, the owner was very 'hands on' and always got back to me right away, we had no stress and she organized the entire wedding for me. I highly recommend them!

Custom Catering is an amazing company that was able to execute everything in a timely manner. I was able to enjoy my party, guests and most importantly, myself. Never did I once have to interact with the staff because they were absolutely on-top of everything!
