A Mansion Wedding “
We had our wedding at the beautiful James Ward Mansion, and T&L Catering was terrific to work with from start to finish. The food tasting was great – making it hard to choose between all of the many delicious options! The food on our wedding day was fantastic, everything from vegetable spring rolls to bacon-wrapped scallops to Asian style beef! However, the real star of the show was our matri’d Jaci. She made sure everything went off without a hitch and truly went out of her way for all of us, making each of us (not just the bride and groom) feel special and important. She even helped bustle my gown! We feel so lucky to have had T&L Catering, especially Jaci, as part of our day.
