I had a Retirement Party here this past Saturday and it turned out nice. The office staff are very…read morefriendly and easy to work with. The contact was very simple to understand, the process was flawless. The decorated exactly how I wanted. Amen I walked into the event hall it was exactly what I had pictured in my mind. The place was set up beautifully. It was very professionally run. The food was top notch, really really good. They actually handled everything perfectly. My only complaint of that the food servers put the good away too quickly. None of the guest were given the opportunity to go up for seconds although there was a ton of food left over. It stated in the contract that food cannot be removed from the premises and that's was fine with me but I would expect my guest to be able to get what was there instead of it being packed away so quickly. Some of my guest left and went and picked up a burger because they were still hungry. There were several guest that did not make the event which means there was more than enough for some folks to get seconds. I'm not sure what happened to the food that was left over but it was a significant amount. My nephew actually did ask for s couple of played to go and was given what he asked for but I'm my opinion the servers should have allowed a little more time for people to eat their fill. I would definitely use them again but I would make sure there would be a better understanding about the serving of the food.

Friday night event and the caterer was Orlando's. So impressed with the food that I specifically…read moreasked the Servicing Teammember who they were with. Appetizers were already displayed on each table as a tiered centerpiece which was a creative idea due to covid. Our apps were a Crispy Buffalo Chicken ball, Potato Puff and a Pastry bite with cheese, spinach and sundries tomato. Oh my goodness all 3 of these were amazing! The pastry puff was my absolute favorite and I could have made my meal just the apps. Salad next, very tasty dressing. It seemed to be a creamy Italian and it wasn't too tart. Salad was just the right serving size. Meal.. chicken milanese, roasted garlic mashed potato and vegetables. The mash were seasoned to perfection and the chicken had the perfect amount of sauce. Food came out hot too, which was a pleasant surprise. Reason for the 4 instead of 5, the dessert fell short as it was waaaayyyy too sweet for my taste and with the tea there was no Equal or Splenda and the sugar available didn't dissolve. Lol. Otherwise, I definitely recommend this caterer!

We were planning a holiday gathering for family and friends when I learned about Lillian Judith…read moreCatering. Thank goodness!! Stephanie worked closely with us to determine the menu. Because our guests had a lot of food issues - gluten, nut and dairy it was a real challenge! Stephanie carefully curated a menu that hit all of our requirements. In addition, because we live out of town for most of the year, our decorations, holiday plates and whatnot were quite limited. Stephanie put my fears to rest by assuring me she'd take care of all the details. As the day of the party dawned, we had the place all cleaned up and ready. Stephanie and Mary arrived about an hour before the guests and set to work transforming our little place into a festive, inviting party spot. We had holiday cocktails and mocktails, delicious heavy appetizers and desserts that were out of this world. Stephanie literally thought of everything. All the food was labeled so our guests could choose foods that were best for their food sensitivities. At the end of the party they gathered everything up, helped set aside uneaten food for later consumption and left with very little for us to other than sweep the floor and fall into bed after a very fun and satisfying gathering of friends.

We recently used Elite Events for the 5th time in the span of one year. The number one thing I…read moreappreciate is their reliability. We never have to worry about them dropping the ball. They also have become our one stop shop for our events, in that they not only offer inflatables, but they offer chairs and tables, face painting, etc. We no longer have to work with multiple companies. Lastly, their staff is easy to work with and are accommodating. From the office staff (Kyle and Jade) to their lead guy on the field (John) to the many workers, face painters, set up crew, workers staffing the inflatables and other products, they excel in customer service. Thank you Elite so very much for making our events successful!

We had the unfortunate experience of using these people for a non profit fundraiser. The kids they…read morehad putting our (2) tents together were higher than a kite. And then when they finished, I took these photos to show the ownership the straps weren't even connected, and most of them were broken at that. To no surprise, one of the tents collapsed the day before our event during storms. They did not have parts or a replacement tent. Still charged is for both tents, and blamed us for the storm bringing the one down. Will go out of my way to keep people from dealing with these people. No way these reviews are real. Happy to provide photo evidence upon request.
