There was an excellent selection for every taste and dietary need, including vegetarian and I believe one gluten-free item. The menu included cocktail meatballs, pork slices on crostini, chicken skewers with peanut satay sauce and coconut (my favourite for the evening!), spicy cornmeal puffs that reminded me a bit of pakoras, puff pastry with cheese inside, and a great selection of desserts like cookies, squares, and tarts. Since I was not involved in planning the event I have no idea about pricing, but if I was with an organization needing to cater a swanky event, I would definitely call Bridges first for a quote.

After searching for an appropriate caterer for our wedding of 160 people, I was starting to feel…read morequite overwhelmed. It seemed that nobody within our budget offered the type of traditional roast beef and ham dinner with all the fixings that we wanted. After speaking to a particularily unenthusiastic caterer, I was nearly convinced I would cater the wedding myself, until I came across Elegant Affairs. When I first spoke to John on the phone, he came across as a bit more casual than you might expect; however he seemed to have a suitable answer to all of my burning questions, and offered practical solutions to my concerns. We agreed to meet with him. My fiance and I met John at his home, where we were welcomed by his adorable pooches before being ushered into his comfortable living room. As we spoke, it became quite apparent that this man not only loved what he does, but he was AMAZING at it. He even gave us a tour of his custom industrial kitchen located in a seperate area of his home. We were convinced. We arranged the contract and agreed to drop off the deposit later that week. When we went to drop off the deposit, John generously offered us VIP passes to an event that Elegant Affairs was catering, as he had extra passes that he wasn't able to use. We accepted them enthusiastically and attended the awesome event, and sampled John's food for the first time. We fell in love with the roast potatoes and knew at that moment, dinner would be a highlight of our special day. The night before the wedding, as we were setting up the hall, I had a moment of sheer terror when I realized that I had forgotten the hall rental did not include wine glasses. It was late on a friday night and I phoned John in a panic, nearly in tears actually. He was so relaxed ad calm and eased my worries right away by offering to drop off some wine glasses to me that very night! He was literally my night in shining armour and did not make it seem like it was a big inconvienience. The big day arrived and we had a wonderful service and dinner was served. John's staff introduced themselves to us and brought our meal directly to the head table, as well as to the table with my grandparents, who have reduced mobility. The service was amazing. The food was incredible. Our guests still comment to this day on how good the food was at our wedding! If you are looking for a caterer that truly goes above and beyond, and does it with a smile, call these guys!

I just got back from a wedding catered by Mercers, it wasn't very good. There was a spring salad…read morethat was supposed to be the vegetarian option, when I went to take the plastic off the dish, I was told that I wasn't allowed to have any, that it was the vegetarian option and if I had some there wouldn't be enough left for others. I went back for seconds after everyone had gone through the line and the plastic was still on the dish, I guess the server from Mercers didn't let anyone have any. They also started clanging dishes and silverware in the middle of the speaches, they had to be told to keep it down. I will never use Mercers.

The dressing was poor too with big chunks of bun a bit of celery and spice. They give a spring salad mix with a couple toss ins. Dessert is bite sized nanimo bar, a shortbread cookie and 2 thimble sized things. Pathetic. They charged about 65$ for this, unreal. You'd be better off getting frozen turkey dinners from a store and picking up whatever else you want to go with it. Very disappointed.

I was really really impressed by her prompt responses while other competitors got back to me one or two days later- and that's the reason we finally chose D&H. We wanted their traditional buffet and need some customization. So I had several conversations with Deidre to finalize the menu to decide the appetizers and the tastes of entree dishes . She was always very patient to answer my questions and accommodated our needs. Finally the event night was wonderful. The food was fresh and delicious. Baby Croissants Stuffed with Tarragon Egg Salad was my favorite during the night. I would recommend D&H catering to my friends and will choose them again for my next event.

I was driving around for a while to be allowed to go to one of the parking areas and it seems the traffic was not planned or controlled properly. Then the parking was all icy which is a safety hazard knowing a lot of young and older people walk there. Then we got inside and although it was nice, it wasn't worth the money and energy. I personally didn't feel Christmas spirit and originality. Everything about the setup was very mechanical without soul. Like a robot maybe! I think something like "candy cane lane" is a lot better experience and it gives a feeling that your in a Christmas painting. I will go back there for the market itself after holidays. I think I may enjoy the market better.

One could enjoy oneself here, if one: 1) lived in St. Albert; 2) had lots of money to burn, and 3)…read morehad low expectations of this Centre acting as the greenhouse it replaced. Beautiful space, but better suited for elderly mall-walkers and special events. Truth be told, there are few actual plants, particularly annuals, on offer. They seem to focus more on specialized seasonal plants, like poinsettias and Norfolk pine at Christmas, and decorative items like pumpkins, terrariums, and tropical plants. I came in mid-September for fall bedding plants and was shocked to find there were almost no plants, a few potted mums with tightly closed buds, and that was it. Not even a marigold in the whole place! What perennials they had left were leggy, there were a few scraggly trees and some sad looking pansies. Quite a pathetic showing, shocking that Home Depot and Canadian Tire have better selection! All this greenhouse space, and hardly any plants. I was pretty choked that I had driven all the way to St. Albert and left without a single bedding plant, what a waste of my gas and my time. The Enjoy Centre is actually a wannabe high-end shopping mall, out in a middle of nowhere industrial park. One of the reasons I chose to come out was to hit Evoolution, but I can do that closer to home. There's a spa onsite, an overpriced kitchen store, an overpriced health and wellness shop, and a specialty grocery store akin to Loblaws City Centre market or any Planet Organic. I'm not sure why anyone would come to the Enjoy Centre for such services, and indeed anytime I've visited, these stores are all but empty. The cafeteria is also overpriced and very average. Honestly I'd only come back here for the special events and would maybe do some gift shopping. But I'll never make the drive from Edmonton again just to peruse expensive items I can purchase elsewhere, or to buy plants, if there were any to buy!!
