Hi! We have just booked our reception for May 2013 at Easton's Beach Rotunda Ballroom in Newport, RI. I have started getting information from area catering companies, to include those recommended by the venue. I am having a bit of a hard time finding one with great food, great service all for under or around 10k, for 150 guests.
Does anyone have any suggestions, comments, reviews?
I thought I had chosen a caterer, then heard some not-so-great reviews. As someone who hasn't been to many catered functions before, I am at a loss as to who is good and who is just charging for the name.
I should note we are looking for a cocktail hour as well as a seated dinner, not buffet.
I welcome and appreciate any and all input you may have!!!
Thanks in advance.
