I called or met with all the caterors on the venus prfered list and found that Dean Allen's was the best value. I started with another company because there qute came in cheaper but as I compareed them I noticed alot of the fees from the other company where not on there. So when all was said and done My wedding was great and everyone loved the food and I cant say enough about the staff they were great. If you are looking for a great cateror who will put up with all ur crazyness (and my mothers) look no further.
