Clean bathrooms are a big plus, good bar area with smart prices on a surprising selection, and I like the food, selection of excellent salad, meats, and fantastic desserts for the right fix after a lot of walking and talking. I noticed the staff was polite and not that easy to notice which is exactly what works for catering. Even with me only doing the piano performance for the ceremony, not in on the planning or numbers, I easily see why they picked this place and can highly recommend.

Before using them for a catering event I was not familiar with Sugar Ella's - I was so impressed…read morewith their services and willingness to work with our group that I want to spread word and promote their business. They catered a tailgate for us for the opening Notre Dame game - and delivered the food. Not the easiest of requests to make to a cater in the area, most local business require you to pick up the food for your tailgate due to the difficulties in delivering the food there, but Sugar Ella's did this for us. They advertise their catering specifically for tailgating. Our menu consisted of smoked brisket, sausage and kraut, cowboy beans, Mexican cornbread casserole, loaded baked potato dips, chips, rolls, and dessert platters with chocolate chunk cookies and brownies. My personal favorites were the brisket and brownies! The brisket was all the rave at the tailgate...I could literally eat platefuls of this and be one happy meat-lover. It comes in their homemade bbq sauce that's not sweet or spicy, but perfectly tangy and settle. The brownies were huge and succulent...and they mastered a hard technique: super thick brownies that are overbaked or too dry. Their prices are affordable compared to their competition. I highly encourage you to check them out and give a glance at their website. Additionally, they have a Facebook page - I've checked it out and the only suggestion I give is that they put a little more into their marketing and social media activity. They cater all events, not just weddings - a nice find the Michiana area!

Easy to plan, excellent service, excellent food. If you have a catering need, give Kim a call, you will not be disappointed.

There is a large bar area and enough room for a cocktail hour line plus a coffee bar. Most importantly, there is a disco ball! Plus: everything was clean and well-maintained. Hedwig took care of the wall decorations, table decorations, tablecloths, bar, and dinner. The wall decorations were white and (at the bride and groom's request) red lights. It was quite elegant. They also recommended the DJ, who was quite good! If I weren't from out of town, I'd have some event at Hedwig myself. Keep up the good work, Hedwig!

I am writing this to let everyone caution when using this business to provide food. This owner…read morerefused to give me my money back for 20 plates of food that she has sitting in a cooler for over a week. chicken should not be in a fridge longer than 7 days.(7 days is what the health dept. told me when I called with my concern) When I explained I was unhappy with the service ( my mother was doing dishes during our wedding reception due to the LACK of service we had) the owners response was to PUNCH A TABLE and start SCREAMING at me saying how disrespectful I was and refused to give me my money back. I have spoken with others about this situation and they say this is common and that she has a temper, loses things such as money and then says you didn't pay for it... which I never got a receipt for the first half of the bill I paid for... she "didn't have it", she also says that she never received a phone call when she really just forgets to call people back. While sitting with her disucssing the menu she had to have a clock that would tell her what time it was EVERY 15 minutes if this gives you any clue to the type of organizational skills she has... So please those that are looking for great food and service with a smile---this is NOT DEFINITELY NOT the place for you --you will be screamed and yelled at and feel threaten bc she feels the need to punch and hit things around her!!!! Not something a bride should ever have to deal with!!!

When I began wedding planning, I sorely underestimated the importance of incredible customer…read moreservice. Our potential vendors ranged from awful to excellent service. However, from the moment of our initial contact with Lexi, it was clear that she would go above and beyond to meet each and every need we had while planning a wedding from Texas. Lexi managed every detail and email inquiry with unimaginable patience, grace and quality. Her help alleviated so much stress that comes with with wedding planning.
