Their service was Top notch! Food tasted amazing and working with Sandy Baez, the Catering & Event Planning Coordinator, was phenomenal. My husband and I were extremely happy with their service.
We had Sandy and staffing from Once Upon an Event of Tampa Bay at two of our events for my sisters wedding. It was a great pleasure to work with them. Sandy listened and did what was best for the parties. I definitely will be using her and Once Upon an Event in future events we do in the Orlando area.
I gave this company this rating because it is a first class event provider. The staff truly made sure our guests were well served during the appetizers both serving the guests and making sure the table appetizers were always full. They did the menu from appetizer to main course and the food was delicious they handled serving dinner for the guest without a hitch and we had over 60 guests. The bartender was fantastic she made everyone feel at home and she even knew some of the guests names by the end of the night. And then they cleaned up and I mean they really cleaned up making our after party cleanup much easier. I highly recommend this company! Oct. 2016
Our wedding was absolutely perfect, due in LARGE part to Once Upon an Event of Tampa Bay, LLC catering/event planning services. From initial contact to our wedding day - my experience with Sandy and her staff was absolutely WONDERFUL! The food was delicious - our guests are STILL talking about it! I loved that Sandy understood our needs and allowed us to customize our entire menu. which included appetizers, dinner buffet and cake. Another amazing part was the fact that she DID NOT nickel and dime us for every little thing, and was more concerned about how she could make our day perfect. Her staff on the wedding day was extremely professional, friendly, knowledgeable, efficient and so helpful. My mil had made our "display" cake - and there was a problem with the transport of the cake (the top layer slid off!).....one of Sandy's employees saved the day and fixed the cake! They left the kitchen at the venue ABSOLUTELY SPOTLESS, and were thoughtful to take the time to serve 3 of our vegan guests so that they would not have to be in contact with any animal products (we had not even mentioned the fact that we would have 3 vegan guests in our initial meetings). Another plus is Once Upon an Event is a one stop shop. Sandy is available to provide anything you need to ensure your wedding day is the best it can possibly be. I had piece of mind knowing that I could rely on her to find a last minute dj, florist, etc. We truly enjoyed our wedding and had nothing to worry about. I would definitely hire them again!
First and foremost, I must say that the whole experience was an amazing and eventful day courtesy of Sandy and the Once Upon an Event Staff. The food was absolutely delicious! Though everything that was served was amazingly delicious, I've got to say that the shrimp skewers, sliced ham and the Mac & Cheese were my absolute favorites! The Bartender was great! The music and decorations were fantastic too. Wonderful reminder of how great the 80's really were. Oh and how to forget the amazing 80's theme cake made, wow we didn't even want to cut into it..lol. It was a delicious moist chocolate cake with chocolate mousse. Once again a huge "Thank You" to Sandy and her staff! Will definitely hire again for any of our upcoming parties. Luis Pagan
