Awesome Awesomeness
“We went with Lavishly Dunn for many reasons. Of course a big reason was that he was in our budget and had come back with the most reasonable quote we had been given. But more importantly the food was delish, well presented, and we loved Jonathan’s personality. Throughout the process Jonathan was quick to reply to our questions, open to our suggestions and willing to work with us on every aspect. His staff was professional and courteous. The event went smoothly. And our guests enjoyed the food!! The menu offerings are varied and he’s open to suggestions about how to improve upon his food. Pricing was per item (and very fair!). This was helpful as we did a cocktail style reception with stations versus sit down. Also it makes mixing and matching easy as can be! You can easily put together a little something something for under $25/head. Also depends on if you go through them for your alcohol needs (which you can! Beer and wine was roughly $8/head for us, I believe) Jonathan also worked with me to make a few things separate as I had a lactose intolerant friend. He some how found her and provided her with her special eats without a problem. And lastly, I made my own cupcakes and had a DIY mini cupcake bar (w/ take home containers, for the “favors”). I had marked all the bags of frosting and had included a smaller bag w/ a name of a guest (I told my friend, who has a slight frosting obsession, that I’d have a bag with his name on it). I forgot to inform Jonathan of this and figured it would get put into a new icing bag with the rest of the frosting to be used (which would’ve been fine). Some how, probably my friend drooling over the frosting, one of the staff found Adam and gave him his bag of frosting. It’s the little things that really make the difference.”
