Lazy Gourmet Catering

[DARCILYNN]

Hi All,

 

Just wondering if anyone has ever used or heard about Lazy Gourmet Catering for a reception? I am considering them for one of my choices but I have had the hardest time getting answers to questions. After days of emails they finally gave me menu pricing which was very reasonable but I am not sure if with rentals and food it will save any money in comparison to hotels? Any info would be great!

 

Thanks!

Hey Darci, I think I remember hearing good things about them but I just don't remember details. I don't recall ever reading a negative review, though. I think you are probably right that with all costs included, they may not be a lot cheaper. One of the benefits to having a caterer is being able to buy the alcohol yourself and just hire a bartender to serve it. Make sure you consider alcohol in your figures, because that is where a hotel can really gouge you on the prices!

Hi Janet,

 

You must be reading my mind =) One of the main reasons I have been looking at them is to bring down the bar prices. I just can't bring myself to spend 8k+ on alcohol!!

Hi Darci. .

My fiance and I recently hired the Lazy Gourmet for our wedding about a week before yours in Cabo next year. Everything I've read about them has been fantastic.. and I do know after calling around a couple of the wedding coordinators in town also work exclusively with them. I personally haven't tried any of their food yet.. but it looks amazing. We picked them up for the same reason on the alcohol, but have noticed their alcohol prices are pretty reasonable and we may end up letting them purchase it as well.. to avoid the hassle. Haven't made a firm decision on that one yet. But the nice thing is they do wedding coordination as well.. so we're not hiring a separate coordinator and a caterer.

Hi Darci -

 

Lazy Gormet is wonderful! - I have been at many functions that Tracy has catered and all of her food is delicious with great presentation. She makes very unussual dishes as well.

 

I have said before on the forum that Tracy also donates alot of her services to us at the Humane Society here - so we LOVE her! - She has a really good heart and, as we say here in Mex, Tiene Buen Sazón (she's a great cook).

 

Ask Brad Pitt - he used her the whole time he was out here filming Troy a few years ago!

 

Happy Planning, Marci
