Mesenburg Creative Catering

I held my wedding reception at Mesenburg Plaza Place in October 2015. First, I must say, the food was EXCELLENT. You will not be disappointed by the food. However, my husband and I specifically chose the appetizers because they were so good at our tasting and we were looking forward to them at the reception. By the time we got to our reception, they were all GONE! The apps didn’t even last an hour! Neither my bridal party nor our parents got to try them after we had raved about them for months. Many of the guests told me later they didn’t see them displayed at all. We were charged per person, so there’s really no reason the apps should run out before an hour. They should have at least saved some for the bride and groom. This is definitely the best option in terms of value. A lot of things are included at the hall and there is no space rental charge. But, you get what you pay for. The banquet hall is seriously out dated and has an old smell to it. I think Rick’s daughter was getting married around the same time as me, so he probably had a lot going on. I felt like we weren’t given attention until it was time to pay the bill. Rick would not answer my emails or phone messages throughout the planning process. When I did speak with him, he seemed completely uninterested in our wedding. However, the day of the wedding, he was very hands on and was available for everything we needed. Lastly, we never received a contract. He switched our room with another couple and never told us. His response was for us to read our contract, that he has the right to switch our room. But we never got a contract! Overall, I am happy with Mesenburgs because of their food and their willingness to let me set up super early and totally transform the hall. Plus the bill was easy on the eyes. However, the poor communication was unprofessional for a company that has been around for so long. I would recommend Mesenburgs to a bride on a budget.

Went to meet with owner to talk about possibly holding my reception here, when I told him how many guest we were expecting, he proceeds to say well that means only this many will actually show up and you won’t need a big room just a small one. They way he said it, made me feel like I was beneath him. Then he proceeds to talk about the HUGE dance floor they had, which by any means was not big at all. They are over priced and not really friendly. Might be good for a small get together, but would not recommend for a wedding reception.

We had Mesenburg caterer our wedding, they did an excellent job. All of the guests were commenting on how great the food was and the staff did a great job serving all of the guests and keeping everyone happy. Highly recommended!
