I hired Ranch Events to do the catering for my mother’s memorial service. Yvonne sent me food options, which we discussed along with a color scheme and I pretty much left it up to her. She went out to the venue, measured tables, counted chairs and came up with a diagram. The day of the event, she arrived early as did her servers. They put linens on the tables and set up everything beautifully. There were MANY more people that came than I had anticipated. I panicked a little telling my family not to eat at first. It then became apparent that there was plenty of food, even enough for the church to hold onto for after services the next day! The trays were never empty, they were refilled immediately and the food was really good. Especially the brownies on which several people commented!
