Caterer

Hi Ladies, 

I'm in the midst of trying to line up a caterer for our big day... 
The ceremony is in a church and the reception is on the beach in the Pacific Palisades.  
Anyone have recommendations for a decently priced caterer?  Thus far we are thinking: buffet style, chicken and fish with salad, grilled vegetables, and some sort of potato, and bread.  
Any ideas?

Thanks in advance for your help! :)

    We are using East Side Marios. They are a restaurant located in Lakewood,CA. I think prices are reasonable. We are serving 3 appetizers, tri tip and chicken, pasta, salad with bread. They include white linens for all your tables and also lemonade, tea. I believe they also have a fish meal. Danielle has been great to work with and answers all your questions. If you have any more questions on them let me know!

    Call up Fidel.  He does awesome catering for a great price with various menu items.  He works out of his house.  He will set up a food tasting out of his house.  310-713-2060.  He helped me budget that into my 10k wedding budget for well over 200 guests.  His speciality is chicken!  He is known in the area as the Chicken Man!
