Catering Catastrophe

- Опубліковано 10 вер 2024
- The plaintiffs say they hired the defendant to cater their wedding, but it was a disaster and the food was inedible. They’re suing for a refund. The defendant says the plaintiff was a bridezilla. She says she delivered everything as expected and she’s not refunding anything.
Case: 31-259
The fact that she believes that steak was rare and not raw is mind blowing!
@Leigh Hartman Exactly!
Totally. Caterer? Creepy
Exactly and shouldn’t be cooking for anyone
100% agree.
@Leigh Hartman It's prime rib. The whole roast is cooked and it is sliced afterward. There is normally no searing on the individual steaks.
I was done with the defendant when I saw that raw, uncooked steak! 😂😂😂😂
She trippin' trippin! Even rare, the outside of the steak should always be brown. That doesn't look like she dropped it on a pan AT ALL!
Looks like she left it in a cold pan for 1 minute. Even if the pan was hot in 1 minute it would have a sear.
I bust out laughing. That’s not even blue steak it’s still alive 😂🤣🤣
She probably dropped it on the floor. 😂
It probably reached 120 cause she left it in the car and forgot it
Straight off the bull🤣
Before hiring a caterer, read their online reviews, ask to sample the food you want them to provide, and negotiate a written contract.
Exactly I would insist on a contract before I hand down any money
For sure. I learned you must put every detail in your contract included how many pieces of chicken per guest, lol!
Yep! Our caterer provided samples and lunch so we could taste before we hired them. Always read their online reviews!
and be specific on how well done or how you want your food in preparation prior
@@kimikonishitsuji3517 samples means nothing. They’re cooking specifically for the tasting. Doing it under pressure for a lot of people is a different thing.
Can we just take a second and appreciate the amount of evidence the plaintiff of provided? Amazing!
@YouRNOTaVictimthx aww we have a 5 year old in the crowd 🤦♀️ 🙄
@YouRNOTaVictimthx that's not a boil
@YouRNOTaVictimthx I don’t see a boil
@YouRNOTaVictimthx What boil? All I see is a a bump that could be anything. It looks as though it may be a birthmark or scar. So what? That's not something he can help.
What evidence? She did not even have a contract for starters.
If she considers that steak rare, I can't even imagine what the chicken was like. The defendant is a nut, she has no business being in the catering industry when she can't even do something as basic as a rare steak.
she couldn't even get out of bed for this, I can imagine her presentation skills and believe the Plantiffs
That raw steak!
I wouldn't trust her to cook my hot dog
You can tell she can't cook. I doubt she's even certified chef.
Actually I was once served a rare steak like that which taught me to always try ordering medium-rare so the meat will be hot.125• is the correct temp of a rare steak.Miss Natalie knew what she was doing. Unfortunately, there was no meeting of the minds as far as terminology went. This kind of thing happens. I suggest plaintiff's have anniversary parties & make some NEW memories
🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣 lmaooooooo
I worked for a professional catering business and I know that the chef starts prepping 2 days before any events. Not cooking, but prepping… This lady isn’t professional and got way in over her head because of her ignorance to the food catering business. I would be pissed too, especially since it was a wedding reception.
2 days when they have the room , but she says she rented the room for 4 hours, so do not expect a miracle, also rare its cold inside, medium rare its red hot inside
@@gusvieira6140 I'm not in catering, but I'm pretty sure the prepping takes place at the business place, not where the catering is going to be. The cooking is at the place for the clients.
@@ruthdeckman9781 maybe. I really don’t know. I assumed the cooking was at the place
@@gusvieira6140 the cooking is at the place. They are saying PREP lol
@@gusvieira6140 I run a catering business and a rare steak is not cold inside its 60ºC internal, and prep is usually done in your kitchen, then the cooking / final prep is done at the venue.
That poor cow, definitely a death in vain smh. I'm not even actually sure it was dead when it was served.
🐄 🐂 should have just stayed in freezer camp.
Yeah. That was the bluest steak I’ve ever seen. I know some people would be into it, but not many.
@@stephanie5249 I remember when I was a kid people ate raw hamburger, ground beef and I did a few times I recall it was 😋 but sounds gross 🤢 now.
@@Queeniejm my mom used to do that! 😂 The thought makes my stomach turn now, personally.
@@stephanie5249 Oh I know right and hotdogs. Eww
I’m amazed for the people who did eat the steak that no one got sick. That food looked terrible.
To be fair, while this is not even cooked at all (even blue steak would have a sear on the outside) and if I wanted my steaks rare, I would've been pissed as hell at whatever this here is, it's completely ok to eat raw beef. Unless US has fucked up health protocols and don't test meat that's send out to consumption. Can't speak on that. I just know that all around Europe you can get different version of beef tartare and few days ago I learnt that they even have their version of it in Japan.
The photographer’s statement said that people eating steak were getting sick.
How are you gonna look at a steak like that and STILL decide to take a bite of it? 💀😹😹
That steak was a couple steps shy of being a cannibal sandwich, lmao.
😂
At my wedding, we had printed on the invitation that in lieu of gifts, to bring a side dish or dessert, and we included a recipe card so we ended up with a little recipe book at the end... 6 years later, I still use those recipes. And it saved a TON on a caterer.
Great idea!
Thats a great idea!!
Baby, that steak though!! She didn't even sear it. 😬 I wouldn't have tried any of her other food after seeing that steak.
Me either I would’ve congratulated the happy new couple and went to a restaurant to get a real meal 🤷🏾♀️
@@Passion85031 Exactly!!!
Prime rib, seared? Don’t think so
@@Britty0189 I wrote this before they mentioned that it was prime rib.
Yep - that stuff was scary!
This defendant needs to take a bunch of cooking courses when you can say with a straight face that the steak was rare.
Just sic Gordon Ramsey with a health inspector side kick.
Yikes, everybody in this case looks ill.
I noticed that too
zombie life
@@pay_attn 🤣🤣
😂😂😂😂😂
Maybe they have health problems...
This is such a nightmare for any couple having their wedding stuffed up due to catering !!! This defendant should be reported , and not used for any function . She is truly a piece of work .
I think the plaintiff should have got back all her money. It's not because some people ate some of the food, out of hunger and necessity, that it means it was good. The caterer was useless and did not accomplish any of what she offered as a service, therefore it should have been totally refunded...
100% agree
YES, totally refunded.
6:40 the look her husband gives her when judge tells her to stop talking out of turn 😄
Hilarious lol
Lmaooooooo
This show and this episode taught me that potential trouble will have red flags BEFORE YOU PAY YOUR MONEY. With the caterer it would have been that she was lax about making sure a contract is signed.
That woman is no caterer! She’s ridiculous and has no idea what she’s doing!
I know super low energy
That steak is considered BLUE!! There’s is absolutely no way it temped to 130 degs.
@patriot15 this is true!!!
My husband is a Chef and I know what "rare" is....That steak was still mooing...It wasn't even butchered right.....rough cut...The steak was not cook to no 120 something degrees to look like that...The Plaintiffs should get their money back....
I’m a chef and she said it was temped to 130 deg. There’s no way!! That is a BLUE steak! Likely under 30 second cook on each side at a high temp!
Absolutely!
@@aliciamorris1445 I'm not even sure it even got cooked on either side lol.....That thing was raw....I bet if you put a fork in it mooed....lol even the fat looked raw....
@@aliciamorris1445 walk it thru a warm hallway kind of Blue, yikes.
@@aliciamorris1445 I don't think it got within cooee of a stove
really if that caterer can't handle a 100 person event without getting stressed out, she really needs to find another line of work, esp serving steaks that are not even seared. looks like she opened the package of steak and slapped on the plate.
That IS all she did! 🤣
She was running late
But it was 125 degrees! /s
@@benjie128 ya where? that one little spot that had a sear on it? 🤣
It was prime rib it gets roasted not seared. That's why I hate prime rib.
I’m dead at this case. The plaintiffs basically said “the macaroni soggy, the peas all mushed and the chicken taste like wooood”! 😂#ifuknoukno
🤣🤣🤣 throwback
Haha nice reference
😂
😂
I’ve seen JM give so much more back for less when it comes to weddings. I’ve even seen her give back punitive damages. I am just shocked that the bride didn’t get more back.
I believe the reason JM ruled that way, is because she felt the guests did eat something, and that the onus was shared between the two litigants.
The plaintiffs did not do as much research as they should have, with the defendant obviously over her head.
Couldn’t agree more
Yeah, I disagree with Juge MM, she did not give enough back
Yes sometimes she gets very emotional and take joy in giving some plaintives everything she is not consistent.
Well, the litigants will split the excess of the $5000 max, so the plaintiff will end up getting $3,125 total. It's too bad the defendant gets a cut, too. She didn't earn it.
I just wanna say Have a blessed married life to the two newlyweds. The party was a mess but doesn't matter , it will come as a funny story to tell after years. Love each other, be safe and healthy and all the best to both of you 🤍
SHE ORDERED THE STEAK RARE NOT RAW, YOU JUST CANT EAT EVERY ONE'S COOKING, WOW 😀💯
Raw steak is chopped and served with raw egg and is called steak tartar! That's just raw steak!
They should have realized this “caterer” was useless just by her look……….
YAAAAAS 👏
If they saw her nasty bedroom she is sitting in they would have never hired her. I wouldn’t touch anything this woman prepared just from her looks alone 🤮
LOL , yup, maybe I'm too superficial but I'd definitely slap some makeup on for a national TV show 😭😂
@@oceanlady66 She was so ARGUMENTATIVE couldn't she just say ''I'm sorry it was not as you expected''?
How is that, they all look like they are on meth😂
Based on the evidence, it really looks like the caterer just wasn't able to handle the event.
That's so horrible, I feel bad for the bride & groom. I mean regardless if your reception is done on a budget or you're able to afford a ritzy extravaganza, this is a special celebration meant for couples to enjoy and this day is supposed to be memorable for all the right reasons.
Their reception could have been worse. At least no booze was served so no drunken fighting going on.And the time schedule should have been different for caterers and clean up time would be after the guests left.
There’s absolutely no way she thought that steak was acceptable.
That meat still has a pulse 🤢
Cooking tip for whoever wants to know the difference between rare vs. raw steaks. If the steak has white lines running through it in the middle, it’s raw. That’s called raw fat. When it’s properly cooked, the raw fat is rendered down/melted and you wouldn’t be able to see it.
The steaks served at this party would have Gordon Ramsay rip the caterers a new one.
My husband is a chef and that's definitely an uncooked steak.
The defendant doesn't look like someone I would let cook for me.
These defendants wind up in court for a reason. Usually, they're unskilled, highly unprofessional and abrasive. I feel bad for nice people that choose to work with such slackers🤦♀️ ESPECIALLY for major events like weddings, without a contract, Nope...
Gnarly catering, that's where the road meats rubbery chicken 🤭😂
There is a difference in raw and rare, as Gordon Ramsay would say the cow was still mooing. I wouldn't have ate the steak. It's clear the Defendant was over her head, she didn't allow herself enough time to prepare for the reception at all. She got overwhelmed and took more than she could chew, but definitely wasn't the steak ... Lol
Oh my gosh. That steak is terrible and raw. The defendant is sick. She should not cater any food at all. 🤢🤢🤢
word of mouth isn't always good, did the plaintiffs even sample some of the food?!; defendant in the wrong line of business.
Cooking a sample menu and cooking for 100 people are different. For my son’s wedding coming up, we went with 16 people to tasting while the restaurant was open to see how they did under pressure. They knew the situation and chose a busy night for us. They were really fantastic. We heard of them through word of mouth.
People saw the food and still ate it?! I can see a menu and hard pass on the food easily. I’ve starved for seeing less.
Half of $3,500 is $1,750, not the $1,250 JM stated in her judgment. Hope the couple received the proper amount due after all. 🤞🙏
Good grief! Where'd you all find that caterer? Under a rock? Horrid!
I'm glad you guys got at least half of your money back! Stay strong together!
Douglas' face when they said "mushy shrimp" 🤣
Dougs facial expressions 😆
Raw and unseasoned🤢That looks nasty!!!
😂😂😂😂 that 🥩 looked like it was ready to be served at a Fear Factor game... Poor caterer, she looks like she suffers from anxiety, I hope she's doing better🌱
That stake though--looks completely raw to me. 🥴
There was no stake, as if there was it would be stopped in the heart.
The food that was rare was steak. A wooden stake is always raw, never cooked as never eaten.
This is why you just simply get married at the courthouse and call it a day to avoid all this madness. But the plantiff should get a full refund for all her troubles.
That’s EXACTLY what we did!! Less stress, less money wasted, more fun. We got married at City Hall and had a party at our house that evening.
Or hire a true professional who has experience and excellent reviews. JM was correct in her ruling. You get what you pay for.
Buddy of mine went to a surprise birthday party of a friend once. After about an hour a pastor showed up and married her and her boyfriend. Turns out, the surprise was on the guests. Nobody brought presents, nobody dressed up. The food was backyard bbq type of food and everyone that should attend the wedding was there for the birthday party. That sounded like the best wedding I've ever heard of.
That's what my Hubs and I did!! Family Catered everything at home and almost 36 years later....still going strong with my Best Friend ❤💙
@tori I'd get married at the courthouse, save the $10-20k I'd spend on the wedding and instead throw a kick ass party a few weeks after the ceremony. You can have a great party for a couple thousand bucks.
Defendant don’t look like she should be in anyone’s kitchen🤢 Food definitely looks gross🙄
She forgot to light the grill
Lmfaooooooooo this comment sent me!!
🤣😂🤣😂🤣
lol
I don’t understand why the defendant was yelling the whole time.
People were probably knocking things over and trying to break into the kitchen, because they were starving. It probably became an episode of SURVIVOR at that point.
Steak and prime rib are not the same. A hall rental from 4pm is not enough time to eat at 4:30 lol
So what went wrong?
I don't know. You'll have to ask Natalie that. 🤣🤣🤣🤣
The way the husband scolds her is so cute.
"Spends 5 minutes bitching about being blamed for ruining the wedding"
"I didn't hear any complaints."
This woman is delusional. She couldn't deliver me food from Uber eats. That steak came straight out the pack and plopped on a plate. 🤮🤮🤮🤮
This case demonstrates my motto;
There is this side of the story, there is that side of the story, and the truth lies somewhere in the middle.
The plaintiff stated the guests walked around saying "Hi" to each other for four hours, which was likely more like three, given they cut the cake and did the garter ceremony prior to eating, I find that difficult to believe.
I know if my family was in attendance, someone would have done a 7-11 (And likely a supermarket) run, for crackers, fruit and juice etc. for the children, while my hubby & his brother Googled the nearest Mickey D's!
In the defendants defense, I have been to more than one wedding, (Even helped cater at one) where members from one or both families were trapsing into the kitchen. Did that add to the timeline? Possibly, kind of like the 'Chicken & The Egg' at this point.
I believe the plaintiffs should have done more research, budget wasn't mentioned that could have played a part as well. The defendant, as JM said, was over her head, and there seemed to be a lack of communication on both sides.
Hope the concentration is more on the marriage now, best of luck to the happy 🥂 couple!
I also found it hard to believe the guests spent 3 hours just walking around saying Hi to each other. People get restless after 30 minutes, especially when waiting for food to be served, and especially when there are children that need to be fed.
@@odettethompson6221 Right? I know when I'm cooking Christmas dinner if it gets backed up by 30 mins, people are looking for something to snack on, highly doubt they would have spent 3-4 hours just wandering around the venue!
@@dellahicks7231 totally not believable. Smh
THE DEFENDANT WAS COMPLETELY AND TOTALLY WRONG, First of all parents of small children should know enough to feed the children ahead of time.. My italian uncles would have made sure that food was out, by discreetly going into the kitchen and taking things in hand, literally ignoring that hapless woman. Especially uncle Frank in his long leather coat and cigar,.[ yes like the Corleone family]. LOL
@@marilynwillett804 Perhaps members of your family would be comfortable doing that, not all families have individuals that would walk into the kitchen where a hired caterer has been paid to prepare food for an event, and insert themselves into the situation.
As for the parents feeding the children prior, I have had charge of not only our son, but other children in the family during a wedding, anniversary etc. and feeding them just prior to the ceremony is not always possible, and even if they do eat prior to, they are children. They burn off calories quickly, and in my experience tend to eat more frequently than adults.
Plus an adult, unless they have a medical issue, can tolerate being hungry for a finite amount of time, most children cannot.
Also, if we are to believe the plaintiffs, at least 3-4 hours went by with no food being served, but they likely would have been smelling the aromas from the kitchen. Personally, I always had a separate bag with snacks for our son, even through his teen years. Because I knew enough to understand these events rarely go as planned, but not everyone thinks that way.
The plaintiff's witness threw her under the bus. The reception was from 4-8 and the crowd arrived at 2. When was the caterer supposed to set-up?
Seriously it's called planning for an event, you need the experienced to do the job and not a self taught novice who can't cook!
A professional would have had the tables set up by noon.
@@judegeiger6019 so true. My caterer had the tables set up, the cake table done, and had put up drapes that matched the table linens. And we were rained out of out outdoor venue and had to pivot to having the ceremony at the reception hall. It was beautifully done and all beforehand.
Yes, I can understand why that was a problem for the caterer.
@@annereidy7981 🤣 TOTALLY
I guess someone packed up all those steaks and took them home to cook! Where in the world did they find that woman to cater the reception? Based on her demeanor and Zoom background, I would be very concerned!
Weddings seem like such a headache. When I want to tie the knot, im just going down to the courthouse and sign papers
That was my plan til my MIL started shrieking down the house, barraging is with calls at home and work, it was non-stop. We ended up with a church wedding, a reception at her house, booze we didn’t want because she’s an alcoholic, nearly 100 people we didn’t invite so the finger food the caterer prepped was wholly inadequate. She changed the cake, it turned grey before guests arrived… it was a nightmare BEFORE my sister fell on a loose and broken step and broke her leg.
Stick to your guns.
We did a backyard small ceremony in a friend's yard on the river at sunset in the spring. Small number of guests, finger foods. Dress casual and relaxed and just our type of thing. Many friends have since told me they wished they did similar, they regret the stress and expense of a big 'big day'.
Then you can go to a local restaurant and have a nice meal.
I'm sorry but I blame the couple for not vetting the caterer thoroughly for what society says is "one of the most important days of your life". This "caterer" would have had red flags showing BEFORE money was paid.
True. I am under the impression that the couple wanted to cut cost and, unfortunately, ended up with this woman who wasn’t capable of catering big events.
I was surprised the budget for catering was not mentioned at all. Was this a case of wanting champagne on a beer budget? I will agree that at the very least, a little more research should have been done.
@@dellahicks7231 I was thinking the same thing as well but when you're doing events like these shouldn't you get someone who is recommended
@@2sense110 While I think most couples would look for recommendations when planning their wedding, there are other things they can do.
Did they actually taste her cooking beforehand? That would be the big one for me, it wasn't mentioned.
Did they at least take a peek of her cooking facilities? I am sorry, however the background behind the defendant, bed unmade when she knew she would be on national television, does not scream tidy and organized, which could spill over into her catering business.
Personally I would never go by recommendations alone, what is satisfactory for one person, may not be for another.
@@dellahicks7231 well said and I was trying to figure out what was in the background and why it look so untidy
OMG!!! The meat was mooing & moving TOTALLY RAW. Also, they should have NOT paid her for that ISH!!! We were marry 26 years ago with a beautiful church & reception in Coronado, CA. Everything was prepaid except for the sit-down prime rib or baked chicken dinner with sides. I didn't pay for that until the end of our reception. This Ish is beyond pathetic & crazy.
Why do the plaintiffs remind me of a character in Nightmare before Christmas
I agree she is dark around her eyes
Again, maybe I'm being superficial but I'm shocked no makeup when one knows they will be televised.
If I was going to be on TV show from my bedroom I would at least make the bed and shut out the dog.
I'm surprised the guests didn't get Salmonella poisoning judging by that photo and those testimonies.
I'm trying to understand why the defendant is so angry at the ruling she didn't stay to talk with Doug- The show pays the judgements so she isn't actually having to pay anything out of her pocket!!!
Sadly, that is not the way to handle bad catering. It is a subjective analysis. The client is allowed an opinion. The client is not entitled to $ back. You don't go to eat, eat the food and then refuse to pay. You pay the bill and if you didn't like it then you don't go back and you give a bad review.
Professional caterer 👌 sure doesn't look like one N the eyes 👀 😳 damn...is the dependent N the bed??!!
Once an event starts to go badly it will only get worse
I co-owned an upscale catering business for many years. “Co-owned” is key because while we like to think we would never be too sick, bereaved, or anything else to miss an event, the reality is it can and does happen. Catering is WAY more work than anyone ever could imagine- it requires a huge amount of organization before, during and after. Lists? We had lists of our lists. My partner and I were completely prepared to step in for each other at every function. The actual cooking is about 1/3 of the job - there are so many things that needs to be anticipated that no one not feeding 100 people would ever think of. It’s not a business for rookies to train on the job. It’s all about word of mouth - we rarely advertised. I can’t understand why these people hired an ‘unknown”. My only sympathy is with people interrupting in the kitchen. Soooo aggravating.
Oh wow , My husband and I love a good rare steak and that was no where near rare. Even a rare steak has color on both sides , She just has no idea what she was doing and made a hot mess of their wedding. She's no professional , I hope she gets views so no one does business with her ever again.
You could slap a bandaid on that steak and send it on its way. I’ve catered a wedding for 100 people on 3 days notice and have done military retirement ceremonies. You can serve wonderful, easy but elegant meals that can be prepped up to a day early, but should not be done earlier than that. I served two entrees: a steak and penne salad on arugula with a balsamic vinaigrette and Gorgonzola crumbles and the other main was a Mediterranean shrimp and pasta salad that was also served on arugula. Many of the components can be prepped ahead with the steaks cooked just before serving so they can rest and get to room temp. Both entrees were served cold as it was a summer, early evening wedding. For appetizers I did Roquefort and pistachio phyllo triangles and a Parma ham, goat cheese and caramelized onion phyllo triangles; then some really easy mini quiches. Make the mixes and your dough the day before, then assemble and bake day of. All of these can be plated and served warmed or served room temp. You don’t have to make it overly complicated.
What time did you get up to start your day?
@@beulahthebride8465 I’m typically an early riser, near 6 ish, but if I’d had to guess when I started full prep for the wedding above, and to have everything done by 3:30 and set up about 4, I would probably have begun around 10, leaving steaks to sear off around 2 so they could rest. If I remember correctly, the venue had warming ovens for quiches which were pre-cooked and just needed to be warmed to crisp the dough crusts.
Where was this wedding the Appalachian Mountains?
Dang that plaintiff look like she’s on something!
It looks like she had a hard stressful life, drugs, or bad relationships with men
1:00 in - is the "professional" defendant zooming from her bedroom?
Yep that place looks unkept ,what a nasty backdrop for a food professional 🤨
I believe so, doesn't look very attractive. If that was the best venue she could find in her home, what does the rest of it look like?
That's not rare steak. That's raw
The plaintiff said that no food came out until 7:45. Her witness said the food came out at 4:45, but Marilyn didn't catch that. The plaintiff did exaggerate quite a bit, but 50% refund is more than enough.
I’m surprised the judge didn’t catch that discrepancy. It was pretty glaring.
Well in fairness she said some of the food came out at 4:45, that was just some salad, buns and some sort of shrimp, not sure if it was the only shrimp.
Then even the maid-of-honor, states it was at least another 1.5 hours or more until anymore food arrived. So if we take that timeline as opposed to the plaintiff/brides, that is still too big a gap!
From what the witness said it seems that the main food came out at 18.15.
@@stephenbanks5952 , the witness said the salad and bread was served at 4:45, and the rest 1 hour later. The bride said that No salad was served until 7:45. The prime rib could have been cooked more If anyone complained, but did they?
@@manthony777 Hi there. The witness said the salad came out at 4.45 but she actually said that the main food came 1.5 hours later, which makes it 6.15. The plaintiff said that the food came out at 7.30/7.45. She did not specify which food she was talking about but I am guessing she meant the main food. That is why I said from her own witness it showed that she was exaggerating the situation a little. I don't know how they normally handle steak orders at these types of event. I would have thought that somebody would go around and ask people how they like their steak but I have a feeling that there was not the staff available to do that. The defendant said that the food was served at 4.30. Which one of them is telling the truth? Also remember that the witness said that they arrived at 14.00. So they arrived 2 hours early. In the defendant's defence that must have been difficult setting up with a room full of people.
EDIT: Oh you are right! She did say that the salads didn't come out until 7.30/7.45. My bad!
What the hell is the plaintiff's husband looking at? I really wanna know. 😂
She didn’t even make her bed before coming on TV 😩 I know darn well she didn’t do what she was supposed to do in the kitchen.
The defendant looks animated
😂😂😂😂😂😂
I wish it had shown the defendant storming off the computer. 😁
I know lmfao!!
@@apoliticallevi I always look for cases with funny moments like litigants storming out without wanting to talk, or Judge Milian kicking them out of the courtroom. 😂
I have noticed that in the last month Doug Llewelyn hasn’t been as snarky as he normally is. At first, I missed it, but now I like his questions. He gets more information and more in-depth reactions now.
indeed
Better than before where I would be side eyeing his comments
Looking at her I wouldn't trust her to boil water. 😂
👍🏿
If you rare steak comes out raw you shouldn't be a caterer!! Kids shouldn't be at wedding, just my opinion.
I suspect this caterer was the cheapest of all they looked at. As JM says: “Lo barato sale caro,”. Translation-“the cheap comes out expensive”
I would have also sued the defendant for malpractice.
"Malpractice", because they would have got food poisoning? Not sure I get the connection to malpractice.
I never noticed this is Harvey from TMZ. Crazy 😜 I have been watching this for years.
That steak was RAW!!!
Its interest how different the testimonies were and the truth is probably somewhere in the middle. I do believe the defendant was getting interrupted and couldnt do her job properly. She was probabky not ready to handle the number and any interuption was too much. I also believe it is very unprofessional for the caterer to speak with the couple before the end of the party. The plaintiffs kept retracting their exaggerated statements. The judge had to split it down the middle. Very grateful for my wedding haha...after 6 years, people stills say we had the best food.
I've seen a few comments like this saying a wedding was years ago and people still talk about the food or how much fun...I find it hard to believe that any food is good enough to talk about 6 years later 🤣 like how often does what u served at ur wedding come up in everyday conversations???
@@alyssahamlett haha that is bc wedding food usually sucks. Steak is overcooked, chicken is a puck, veggies are tasteless, desserts are meh. There are seriously only a hand full of wedding food I actually liked, one of which was mine. And we had our reception at a bowling place. So, in context, our wedding was different for many people. It was a fancy bowling place. Talks about wedding come up often when ur friends are also at marrying ages and every year someone gets married. Plus, I am a pastor who did weddings. Eventually, people say, "I really like the food at ur wedding..." No joke.
@@alyssahamlett u can actually go try our wedding food at any Pinstripe location near Chicago. Trust me...it's the best wedding food for the price and we got the Saturday brunch price. Haha
The defendant is something else.. lol
I did catering for a long time and let me tell you this is just nasty 🤮
👍🏿
Need to check out people ahead of time.
Get reviews.
Get samples.
MUST have a contract .
If anyone refuses to write up a contract - Run.
You cannot have a reception without a contract.
Is this a company or a lady who is working out of her kitchen.
Caterers should have a license.
I'm sorry the couple had a tough day.
These are the kids from Delieverance all grown up.
Stop!!!!! 😂😂😂😂😂
So she overcooked the vegetables but served raw meat smh...
The defendant definitely bit off more than she can chew HOWEVER, the plaintiff instead of paying money for a wedding should’ve used that money to get her teeth fixed! Her priorities are clearly screwed up‼️
Absolutely
YOU ALL SOUND LIKE GOSSIPY NEIGHBORS OVER THE BACK FENCE. not sticking to the subject and instead criticizing her appearance is ignorant.
Kudos for the plaintiffs having a ton of evidence for once! This caterer was a joke and rude as hell
It definitely wasn’t edible to eat 🤦🏽♀️ isn’t that the definition of edible lol
not saying anything was great by the caterer but did anyone else notice how the bride said they had to wait all the way until almost 7:30 or 8 when the reception was at 4.....and the caterer said they showed up early.....well the maid of honor said we showed up at 2 but the food was not served until around 4.....so different then the bride said so if they really did show up that early id say some of the blame would be on the plaintiff.
How many of us gasped when we saw the meat 🤣🤣🤣
More people propagandized by corporations and wedding reality shows into believing that your wedding is the best day of your life. Half of these people are going to divorce eventually. And I would argue that the birth of a child, an adoption, a fulfilling career and a life performing good works are far more important life events than a wedding. These big weddings always strike me as an expression of the couple's narcissism, a bigger and better competition designed to impress the neighbors and family.
Negative Nancy
Welp, that's your opinion. Having big lavish weddings is not something new. All throughout history, if you had the money to spend on your wedding, you did.
Well said
I skipped the whole wedding and just got to the sex part
My husband and I were married at city hall, without guests, and we went to our favourite pub for a pint of Guinness and some dinner after, then shared a bottle of Dom in our back yard …that we had because we spent our money on a beautiful house instead of a beautiful wedding. Zero regrets.
Big weddings are great for some, but definitely not for me
The bride looks extremely tired not to mention her grill 🥴
Don't be an asshole...she could have a medical condition or could have been in an accident.
3 children...1 is 3 and their twin girls just turned 1.good friends of mine and they are a very loving family.
@@robertanthony7754 I BELIEVE YOU, most likely most on here cant get a decent man to marry them, so tired of all the insults of folks trying to do the right thing,
The "caterer" needed help and was completely overwhelmed. I feel for her as well as the plaintiff.
I agree she wasn't capable of doing the event 😕 but I do not feel sorry for her (caterer)?! Only she knows what she is able to do 🤷♀️ and this poor couple was duped by her🤨.
It sounds that way. There is a woman that has been catering our (small) parties at home, and I recommended her to cater a larger event. She was all excited but, unfortunately, it took her maybe 5 minutes into the event to realize she wasn’t able to cater such a big event. The food being served very late, undercooked steak, etc. all sound familiar!
