Disappointed Doesn't Even Cover It
Hello brides & grooms!
In light of your upcoming nuptials I wanted to share a recent experience of mine to spread some caution when choosing your caterers: My wedding was on October 12th, 2022 and I hired Little Mushroom Catering to provide the brunch and bar service on my special day. Our wedding was short and sweet, clocking in at only 4 hours from start to finish and during that time, we encountered 9 issues; all of which Little Mushroom Catering were responsible for:
- No communication regarding table space/set up. You can see below what we asked for versus what we were served and it obviously did not meet expectations. The table was described aptly as “sparse” by both our coordinator and photographer.
- LMC requested a double wide table and ABSOLUTELY NO decor to accommodate all of the food. When I asked why the set up looked so bare, they blamed me for how big the tables were. (They are a preferred vendor for our venue so they were familiar with the table sizes prior to)
- There was no water service, despite us specifically requesting it as I did not want water jugs on the table.
- We were given mismatched water glasses when we paid for a uniform set.
- Staff were distracted and on their phones during service which delayed our cake-cutting time to the point that my Maid of Honour had to remind LMC staff to begin cutting.
- The bartender working our wedding entered my husband’s dressing room while he was getting changed and had to be removed by our photographer because he wouldn't leave.
- Unwelcoming bar service by the same bartender throughout our entire meal.
- No vendor meals despite paying for them. The solution was LMC suggesting that our vendors pick off of the table between our guests during our meal.
- LMC threw out all of our food despite me asking to have it boxed up. They have a food waiver form that is uneditable and so I called and specifically asked if this could be done and was assured that it would be. That was not the case.
It’s been nearly a year since our wedding and I have been corresponding regularly with Little Mushroom Catering to have this resolved as we simply did not get what we paid for. After practically begging to be compensated fairly, they reimbursed us $118.00 out of the thousands that we paid. I was threatened this past month with lawyers, the CEO, Stephanie saying not to even bother trying anymore and that this issue, “will easily be dismissed by any lawyer.” Because I paid for the services in full prior to the wedding (which was required in our contract).
I am beyond disappointed and would hate for any other bride or groom to experience this kind of heartache. Honestly, it makes me sad that this experience tainted our wedding day and that Little Mushroom Catering was unwilling to take responsibility, especially when I had been so patient throughout the whole process. I wouldn’t recommend them whatsoever and I hope that you choose more wisely than I did. -

LMC was awesome! I contacted Malcolm and Stephanie about having breakfast provided while getting ready the day of my wedding, and they came through! Malcolm was quick and attentive, and was able to provide a number of options for what I was looking for. When our breakfast arrived, it was such a great spread and really fresh. We got the cold continental breakfast and it fuelled me through the day until our dinner at the reception. Can't recommend Little Mushroom enough! -

The food was amazing! Little Mushroom was easy to work with and we’re able to provide a delicious almost exclusively vegetarian menu. They were very accommodating for our guests with allergies and dietary concerns.
The rentals they provided were beautiful and set and tear down was perfect!
The whole team was great from the organizer to the wait staff, and the bar staff were super fun! -

We can not put into words how amazing it was working with Little Mushroom Catering and Ericka for our wedding. There are so many points I could add to here but will focus on a few items. We would highly recommend them.
- Planning during the COVID pandemic was challenging and with all the changes of restrictions and rules, Ericka and her team worked with us to modify the plan through each transition and were super flexible
- The food was absolutely delicious and portions for everything exceeded our expectations. We received many compliments on the food.
- The set up and service for day of wedding even worked with last minute changes for the day of to ensure we had the perfect setup and wedding.
- Communication and planning was always very quickly followed up on. Staff was super personable and easy to talk with.
Again - highly recommend Little Mushroom Catering from all angles.
