I Attended a wedding that Nelson's catered in the last month and was left speechless at the lack of professionalism, utter incompetence and under staffed for this event. There where a few tables that never received there meal and the wedding party's food was cleared before they ate. There was no service to see if tables needed anything during the meal hence a shit load of food left in the staging area went In the trash. I had to ask for the water decanters to refilled, you would think that's serving 101. I noticed the coffee was put out after supper not for dinner and NO cream and sugar. I could go on and on but I believe you get the point. The crazy amount of money spent with Nelson's they should be ashamed of themselves. read more

Hard to work with and they give misinformation when trying to book them for a wedding reception. They were contacted regarding a reception, and we were told by their wedding coordinator Wanda they were available for the date via a phone conversation. During that same phone conversation Wanda stated there is a tasting in 2 days and will see if there is availability for us to attend. She said she would call/email me that same day letting me know. We never received an email. The next morning, I called, and Wanda was not available, but she would call me back because she is still waiting to find out if we can attend the tasting. Later that day we received an email from Wanda saying they were unavailable for the reception date. Very unprofessional communication and disappointing as we were hoping to use this caterer. read more
