I have one tiny complaint, make a really spicy hot sauce pleaseeee! The sauces are great but they are mostly sweet, I wouldn't mind one that kicks your teeth in a little bit. Also when you visit please get the moinks, I could eat my weight in those. So good! I can't wait to keep coming back to this place.

My favorite dishes are 1) papaya salad (the dirty heavy crab paste version), 2) the catfish curry, and 3) the egg rolls. All of her food is fantastic. Her papaya is to die for. Seriously. It's sweet, sour, salty, and crunchy. I'm an avid papaya salad eater and Zer's is top notch. I have even sipped on the leftover liquid once all the papaya is eaten because it is that good! The catfish curry is the perfect blend of sweet and savory. I especially enjoy the fresh pineapple slices that she adds to that dish. The egg rolls are filled with a good proportion of meat and veggies. I don't like egg rolls with barely any filling in them. They're also very crispy. I highly recommend this place for catering.

We had a pig on a spit but they never showed off the spit and just had the meat in a tray, which was very dry. We had a 7 layer salad, baked beans (very good), stuffing (very bad), mashed potatoes, german potatoes, sauerkraut, broasted chicken (very good). We served pies and cake, all of which was very average! They provided paper plates and paper towels. Appetizers was a cheese and sausage spread, vegetable tray and a smoked salmon (which we had to pay separate and deliver to them) They also provided the table clothes which we had to pick up and return. We received an email 3 days before our wedding that the smoked salmon that we ordered months ago was not available but if I wanted to drive to another city to pick it up and bring it to them I could. What!? I ended up calling the same company that they use and got it locally. I had to drive locally and pick up the fish and bring it over to Biebels, the day before the wedding. As if we did not have enough things going on. They were nice to work with but their performance, quality, and price scored them this poor review. **Update** They charged us over $100 for a "missing table cloth"...10 days after we delivered them back to them. Maybe they did not like their review. SMH.

They started with a Salad that had nice combination of veggies that included some great little Grape Tomatoes. Sides were Green Beans with Almonds and Roasted Potatoes. Both were good, but the potatoes were so good we wanted to take them back to our hotel room! I even tried to get the recipe from the waitress. The main courses were Breaded Chicken and Pepper Steak. Again, both were very good. As with any wedding reception, the best part was the celebration of family and friends. Any chance I get to spend time with my family rates a 5 star experience! Besides, I even got my dance on after dinner!

It's a pretty great bathroom: it's clean, there's furniture, and lots of mirrors. I don't drink, but my friends were very pleased by the drink selections and the bartender was very friendly. When I came here for the work function, we utilized the space around the bar really well for our purposes, and then filled up the dining area. Food was delicious and I was provided with ample vegetarian options. There was so much food leftover after we had eaten our fill, and I felt bad about wasting it. I asked our server if I could take some of it to go, and she was very accommodating. She said, "You're right. It would be a shame for the food to all go to waste!" As a poor college student, I very much appreciated eating leftovers for two days after. Four stars only because the dance floor is a little on the small side.

We recommend all people avoid Elegant by Design ("EBD") based on "their" entire lack of…read moreperformance, misrepresentations, & egregious bait-and-switch tactics days before our wedding. EBD is the one-person operation of Denise Ellerbecker, someone who lacks the ability to manage an event. Open letter to Elegant by Design: This purpose of this letter is to detail the numerous instances in which you failed to perform your obligations pursuant to our oral agreement concerning your services for our July 6, 2013 wedding at Mulberry Lane Farm ("Farm"). Elegant by Design simply failed to perform any of the tasks upon which payment was conditioned, misrepresented themselves, and breached our agreement. Besides minimally helping the wedding party & 9 friends setup 29 tables on July 5, hanging 3 banners--1 incorrectly--and calling a vendor for a lost key, everyone in contact w/ bride & groom are at a total loss for words when asked what services were provided by EBD. Based upon discussions between & amongst the bride, groom, the wedding party, the owners of the Farm, the caterers, multiple guests & the family/friends who helped to setup the venue, specific examples of your deficient performance include the following: -Because you allegedly double-booked an appointment slot on July 3, 2013, you cancelled our meeting & rescheduled it for July 4, 2013. -During our meeting, when discussing the set-up that would need to take place the following day, you informed us that you would need to hire additional people, at an additional cost. Given your previous representations, coupled w/ time restraints we were under, we feel like this was a "bait & switch." Fortunately, we were able to recruit wedding guests to assist w/ the setup, but this added a tremendous amount of unnecessary stress 48 hrs before our wedding. -2 guests at the wedding rehearsal had to help set up chairs at the ceremony site, despite the fact that you had been at the Farm for at least an hour. -You disappeared for almost an hour pre-ceremony to get extra materials for a task, though said materials were provided. This task was then completed by the officiant & his wife in your absence. -You did not supervise guests as they arrived, permitting them to enter the area where the bride was taking pre-ceremony photos despite the bride & groom's frequent insistence to limit people's movement. The end result was the bride greeting dozens of guests in her wedding dress as early as an hour before the ceremony. -During the pre-ceremony photo session, you interrupted the Maid of Honor because the shuttle missed 25 people, asking "What should we do?" You had the contact info for both the hotels & shuttle provider. Determining "what should be done" is precisely why people hire wedding planners. -When the elderly matriarch of the groom's family missed the last shuttle, the uncle of the groom informed you & offered to pay for an extra shuttle out-of-pocket if he could only have the contact info for the buses.You inexplicably lied & told him that you didn't have the contact info. -You failed to ensure that an important prop was not at the ceremony site, as it should have been like we previously discussed. -During the ceremony, you cued bride to enter too early. -You failed to issue a reception format to the DJ. When the DJ was underperforming, the bride & groom had to address the problem because you were nowhere to be found. You also failed to initiate a sound check to confirm music was audible from different parts of the barn. -You failed to inform the farm staff of a sanitation problem in a handicapped portable restroom was unusable because of a large mess. A guest found farm staff, alerted them, then followed by informing you. You interrupted the guest by claiming, "I don't own this facility. It's not my job." -You failed to coordinate handling the buffet service w/ the caterers. At dinner time, you were again nowhere to be found. Instead, the owner of the Farm dismissed tables for buffet service 2-by-2. -As the Farm owner was trying to find you to notify you of an empty buffet tray, she found you in the buffet line--ahead of dozens of guests--serving yourself a plate. The Farm owner then took initiative to inform the caterer of the need. -Your final task of the evening was to consolidate the flowers & vases to a table near the 10-o-clock hour. By 9:45 PM, you were nowhere to be found, having left w/o notifying anyone and the task ignored. -You pressured the father of the groom to clear gifts so you could leave, telling him that was her final task of the evening. As early as 9:30 PM, guests were approaching the bride & groom, asking where cards should go, as the card dispenser & other gifts were already gone.

We chatted on several occasions which felt more like hanging out with an old friend over drinks. Ray drew on his vast experience doing this job to keep costs down without making the wedding feel cheap at all. We just expressed our likes and he handled the rest. Very simple, very personable transaction. The trailer and bartender at the event added to the overall flair. I think more people became friends with the bartender than others who were invited to the wedding. Of course the guy serving the beers has to be your friend right? Highly recommend that anyone looking to have a gathering where drinks are needed make Valley your first stop.

However, we did run into issues with the pricing. We had some "bill shock" when we received our final invoice. Prior to the wedding, all of the information was conveyed via phone conversations and when asked about prices directly, only round answers and past figures were provided verbally. Further, it wasn't apparent in any conversations that the company charges you to "rent" their equipment. Last, the cost of having everything piece meal (we paid MSRP for alcohol, but then we were charge for consumables, bar tending, set-up, rental of the equipment, etc.) seemed like a cheaper option, but when considered to the "price per head" model of other vendors, it ended up being more expensive. I would recommend that you consider Valley Liquor for your catering event, but make sure to get a detailed quote in writing prior to the event and that you compare to "price per head" options.
