Would You Like the Chicken or the Fish?

So, the latest thing in weddingville is my lack of a caterer. According to theknot.com I should've had a caterer in May....I still don't, I think it'll be okay, and generally the knot is waaay to OCD for my taste.

Initially, I reasoned that it would be easy to find someone that would be able to cater a wedding for about 150 people at my parents house. Apparently, that's not the case. The first catering company that we met with (which I'll leave unnamed) insisted that a party of that size couldn't happen at our venue and tried to get us to switch to the venue that she is contracted with. Also, she gave us a quote for about 70 dollars a head...in the valley...heck no...

Basically, we didn't hire her.

Then, last weekend we met with a catering company that was just too good to be true. They brought a testing of these lovely chip/mango/proscutto/ appetizer things that were to die for. Aaaaand, they quoted us for 26 dollars a head for appetizers, salmon, tri tip, and sides....yayayayay!!! We were ready to hire them on the spot. Plus, they were excited about doing the wedding at the house and were willing to work with us and not against us!!

But, they were too good to be true....

The day after we met with them they found out that they had a scheduling conflict.

:'-(

Sniff Sniff....

Does anyone know of a good and tasty caterer in the Modesto area that doesn't cost an arm and a leg????
