I even had an email conversation a week before the wedding to add on a few dietary menu items and confirm the date again ...Day of my wedding they didn't show up....after multiple calls by my coordinator they finally answered and said there was a "scheduling mishap" ... my coordinator then heard the staff in the background telling an employee to hang up the phone and not answer...cowardly staff and management. They ignored every single phone call and then their "solution" was to come 4 hours late with food not on our contract. Once you didn't show up at our contracted time with our contracted menu...you were in the wrong and there was no way you could fix it. How does a professional company not show up to a wedding when there were multiple conversations about the date (that never changed) and a signed contract? They told us our communication was only via email and it didn't end up on their calendar...it is YOUR job to manage your bookings and handle your calendar...NOT ours. They then tried to place blame stating we hadn't paid the rest of our balance...had they been a responsible business with our event on their calendar they would have reached out to discuss the last payment like a typical vendor would! A deposit is meant to show a client is in good faith going to pay the rest of the payment for a service, and as a business why would you just not show up after not getting the final payment instead of reaching out to collect the rest? Our email conversation a week before would have been a great time to remind us of our remaining balance but you are clearly trying to deflect from the fact that you forgot about us. TCP mishandled our booking due to poor business management and we had to pick up the pieces. TCP catering nearly ruined my wedding and we had to feed my guests lower quality food due to no options around our venue last minute. Because they didn't show up we also only had alcohol to serve our guests for several hours since they were contracted to bring food, water and non alcoholic drinks. Book them with extreme caution or you might end up scrambling an hour before dinner time on the most important night of your life! Edited to add: they withheld our deposit until we removed my honest review of what they did...completely unprofessional and wrong. Scott, if you would have reached out and apologized for forgetting about my wedding and shown ANY remorse I wouldn't have felt the need to post an honest negative review. But you continue to place blame on us when we did nothing wrong. If you not showing up to my wedding was simply because we didn't make the final payment...why were you trying to come hours later on our wedding day and why did you tell us it was because you forgot to add us to your calendar? Just admit you did something wrong and move on instead of texting my mother complaining about our honest reviews. Reposting because potential clients should know what happened to me and how they mishandled it every step of the way.

Once that was scarfed down, we went back for cobbler, Texas Sheetcake, and ice cream. The food was fantastic, and so were the friendly servers we interacted with. Chuckwagon was outstanding and helped us kick off our convention with a great Texas style meal.

Generally, I have a strong constitution when it comes to food and drink. See, I have been in…read morecountries where the laws and conditions of food preparation and storage is very much a "free for all,". Before I tell you of my recent bout of food poisoning there was one time in a little city in the Yucatan where a bowl of fruit that I ordered at a café really made me very sick. Live and learn. Well anyway a while back at this retail place I was working at, to show his appreciation, my boss who is a pretty-nice guy treated to me and my fellow employees to a BBQ dinner. During the day, two people, a husband and wife came to the store and started bringing in food. The meat foods consisted of sausage, smoked-chicken and brisket. The vegetable dishes consisted of baked beans, coleslaw, and potato salad. They as also had some rolls which were pretty good. I didn't eat the brisket because it looked rather desiccated. So, then I decided I would have the sliced sausage instead. After eating a couple of slices of the sausage I found that it was bland and had no spice to it which was a first for me. Next, I decided that if I just put some BBQ sauce on the sausage that would pep it up, but it didn't. The sauce was runny and tasted like some had taken some good BBQ sauce and mixed it with a great deal of ketchup. In short, the BBQ sauce didn't have any bite to it. I'm not much of a coleslaw person and I don't like baked beans because they are too sweet for me, I'm more of a pinto bean with onions type of guy. So, I decided to try the potato salad and smoked chicken. The chicken (without the BBQ sauce) was pretty good, but as for the potato salad well, that's another matter. After about two bites of the potato salad, I detected with my nose that it had really, really gone off. In retrospect I knew that by the first bite it was very past its date of consumption, but like all of us sometimes I chose the road of denial. When one of my fellow employees saw the sour look on my face, out of concern they came up to me and ask me what was wrong. I then told this fellow employee that the potato salad was off and that I was going to tell the guy that owned this catering company about the dangerous food. In an emphatic manner this fellow coworker told me that our boss and the man who owned the catering company were very good friends. The fellow employee told me not to go up to the owner of the catering company for he was not a very nice man and would go ballistic if I made my concern about the potato salad known. Having a hard time believing what my fellow employee had just told me about this individual, I decided to get a feel for this person who owned the catering company. So, with a nice smile I went up to him and said: "Hi, my name is --------. How are you?" The owner who is a corpulent old man, without a smile or barely any eye contact replied, "I'm okay." I then said, "That is a cool handle bar moustache you have." Once again, with no smile or barely any eye contact he replied, "Yeah, okay." With another smile I then asked, "So, how long have you been in business?" Again, with barely any eye contact or a smile, (which is a kryptonite in the world of business), he said with a slight sneer, "For a while." When I then said that it had been a pleasure to meet him. He then turned his back on me without saying any polite departing words like a normal person would do. Hours later, I started to feel some of the symptoms of food poisoning. I had a great pain in my abdominal area and a fever. I had chills, I was sweating a lot and I was very weak. To prevent myself from having to endure this ordeal I went to the toilet got down on my knees, stuck my finger to the back of my throat and quickly I induced vomiting. Next, I took about three pills of a wide-spectrum of antibiotics I had in my medicine cabinet. I then drank a clear soda and sat down on the sofa in my living room and rode out the horrible tribulations of my food poisoning. Twelve hours later I went to bed and slept for a several hours. Two days later my body started to feel normal again. From my early years working as a waiter in two different restaurants, I learned a great deal about the safe preparation of food and the proper storage of food. That's because the health department of the city of Mesquite, Texas made us take a class for it, which was a darn good idea. I learned from these smart people that foods that require refrigeration should be stored no higher than forty-one degrees. The potato salad I ate felt like it had a temperature of about 60 to 62 degrees. The temperature range between about 43 to about 135 degrees is very dangerous. My advice to you if you chose to you use this catering company is to stick to the smoked chicken and rolls. Lastly, there are so many catering companies that have a similar name to the one I'm talking about. So, to help out, the one I am talking about is found at a residential Garland address.

FOOD: The food itself was borderline gourmet. The black bean dip, beef empanadas, and even the quesadillas were perfectly made with fresh ingredients by the master chef on site. How many aquariums do you know that have a chef on site? The compliments flowed like wine all night. Speaking of wine. DRINKS: Can we talk about the full bar next to the sloth exhibit? There were 3 kinds of frozen booze drinks and they were all magical. And liquor, wine, and beer? Boom. Done, and in record time with a smile. SERVICE: In my opinion, Kyle, the Event Coordinator, can stand alongside any wedding planner in America. I've seen so-called celebrity wedding and event planners in action and none of them could hold a candle to the level of professionalism, precise timing, and class that Kyle brought to our wedding reception. He is also a walking party, so if you're dancing, Kyle's coming to join you. Also, a great bottomline is how much cheaper it was to have an event there, as opposed to literally any of the 14 country clubs that I called over the last year. In conclusion, if it were not for Daryl's by Design and the amazing staff they have working at the aquarium, we might not have had our amazing evening there. It makes me want to renew my vows there already.
