Big Ten Catering

WORST BARTENDING EVER!!!!!! 1-for the estimate the owner took his time to get back to us and was not easy to get in touch with, red flag. 2 - they lost our estimate and order 1 week before the wedding 3 - I had sent proper insurance/lisence information months ahead of time which they did not read and did not have 1 week before the wedding. Yes here is where we really should have ditched them and our very minimal deposit, but we didnt and paid for it. 4 - during the hosted cocktail 2 hour they ran out of vodka/gin within the first 45 min and blamed us for being a drinking crowd. 5- were over their estimate by $1000!!!!

For our rehersal dinner we had dinner & comedy club afterwards.

We arrived a half an hour early. They had us downstairs in the bar and it kind of felt like they didn't know what to do with us yet. We hung out in the bar downstairs and finally made our way into the dinner area. We sat there for awhile and then they brought out our salads. The salad was very good. Then for dinner we had the choice of either walleye, steak, or chicken. People preordered but some people changed their minds last minute. There was a slight mix up of the food but it ended up working out. The food was great and I was very happy with it. Someone's prime rib wasn't cooked enough but besides that it was still delicious. My biggest dissapointed was I didn't feel like the service was as good as it could have been. I didn't really feel like we had a server but more so many people just bringing our food in. It felt a little disorganized.

After dinner we waited for the comedy club to start. There were 4 acts and nobody really knew how long it would last. It lasted an hour and 45 minutes. The first 2 acts I was dissapointed with and was starting to think this was a bad idea. One of the guys even seemed to be very drunk. The third act was really funny. He was my favorite. I can't remember his name though but he was fun. Then the last guy made my fiance & I go up in the front and he told a bunch of jokes to us. It was a lot of fun for us and I liked the interaction.

After the comedy club was over we had to chase somebody down to pay the bill. The owner/manager of the comedy club came over and seemed pretty drunk. He congratulated us but when it came time to pay he didn't know how to help us. He had to find somebody and we had to wait awhile for somebody to work up the total. It was fine but by this time of night we were pretty tired.

I think people enjoyed the dinner & comedy club. We had fun. It was a lowkey atmosphere and I liked that.
