    The venue is very pretty inside, the food was delicious and the manager and bartender, that night was so very helpful. One thing I would have liked was that the food I asked to be boxed up to go, was actually done. I didn't get to eat because I was socializing and thus my plate of food and cake was thrown away even after I asked for it to be boxed. other than that everything was wonderful.

    Let me just say, my wife and I got married on 6/24/2018. I meant to write this review a long time ago but kept putting it off. However, the fact that I'm coming back over a year later to write the review indicates how great the staff at The Christy was, and how deserving they are of a great review. My wife and I got married at the O'Fallon location. Ron and his staff were absolutely terrific. All the guests commented that the food was very tasty. The décor was beautiful, and the service was outstanding. My wife and I felt that the price was more than fair, and we are extremely happy we chose The Christy. It means a lot to us that they made one of the best nights of our lives such a memorable one.

    We just got married last weekend and The Christy was so accommodating with everything! Our ceremony and reception were outdoors in the same location and the venue looked fantastic. Table settings and decorations were placed perfectly. All of our guests loved the food and we could not have asked for more friendly staff on hand that day. We don't have one bad thing to say about our experience and would definitely recommend to anyone! When you're spending this much time and money on one day you want everything to be perfect and both my wife and I felt that Karen, who was helping organize everything for us, put just as much effort in as we did. There was rain later in the evening and the bartenders still stuck it out and were happy to help any way they could. I would definitely suggest considering them for your big day!

    We chose the Christy as our caterer for our wedding on 5/11/19 at Neo on Locust. Working with the Christy was an excellent experience! We planned our wedding from out of state, so communication was key in our planning and the Christy did not disappoint! Kim and Kelly were always prompt and responsive to all of our questions throughout the planning process! Our parents were able to attend a tasting at their venue months before, which worked out perfectly. We received many compliments throughout the reception about the Christy, and would definitely recommend working with them! From setup to break down at the end of the night, the entire night ran smoothly with the Christy! They were willing to work with our other vendors throughout the night, making the reception flow. The food was AMAZING too!!!!!

    If you want to have an elegant yet affordable wedding, this is THE place to go. We did so much searching, attended bridal shows and finally found this gem. The owner is so nice and so personable. They do practically everything for you so no need to stress about decorations or bar. It has a flat per person rate that INCLUDES open bar and other freebies that other places charge for. Also did I mention the food? So good and they sent all of the left over food home with us. I highly recommend the ham, chicken parm, au gratin potatoes and green beans. The best deal for a beautiful wedding.

“Micro wedding hit!!! Oh my goodness, we simply cannot thank these guys enough for the delicious meal and the flexibility of the crew. They set up in the kitchen area, were so helpful and extraordinarily professional. The food was terrific. Our pregnant guest with a severe food allergy ate the most she has in weeks. Her delight delighted all of us too. Thank you tremendously for taking her safety so seriously. The micro wedding was lovely, topped off by a wonderful meal provided by a skilled crew. The crew chief, whose name I forget, was tremendous as were her assistants. We truly felt “ catered” to. Thanks so much for making all those little details no big deal and lowering the stress level tremendously.” ~Dinah Williams

“I just wanted to pass on a letter of thanks to  your staff for a job well done at the Doss/Roberts  reception that was held on Aug. 27th at the St. Ann Community Center. Your staff was the friendliest, most customer-oriented staff I have ever had the privilege of dealing with. As the campus manager for Enterprise Rent-a-Car’s corporate headquarters in Clayton . . . I work with catering staff on a weekly basis. Our caterer’s can take tips from your employees on how to deliver top customer service in a very busy environment. Your staff provided us everything we needed in a timely, professional manner. I cannot commend them enough for their responsiveness to all of our needs and their willingness to accommodate our every request. …their suggestions helped the evening flow smoother. We had 400 people to feed and they had it done within approximately 30 minutes. …Please pass on our thanks to all the staff. I would highly recommend your company to anyone who is looking for top quality catering at a fair price. By the way, the food was delicious and there was enough for seconds! …” ~Yvonne Roberts


“We just want to let you know that the service  you provided to our Marine Corps League on  May 20th was delightful. “Your staff was very professional to deal with. Gary, our server, was wonderful.

You bet we would.” ~Adrienne Steinke, Marine Corps League Auxiliary

The food was  great, the room was set up just the way I had asked and the party went just fine.  “Kelly, Rich, Ron, Joyce and the people who helped out at the affair; and the very kind gentlemen who served the drinks at the bar — they were  terrific. Please thank them for me, also.  “You have a wonderful business, keep up the  good work and I will (and would) recommend your facility to anyone who wanted to have a wedding, party, shower, etc. It is the finest! May your business be prosperous for many years to come.” ~Ameal and Gerri Nassif
