“Sid outdid himself. We especially enjoyed the scrumptious carrots, the melt-in-your-mouth baby potatoes and the juicy, flavorful beef. It was a delightful supper for us and our guests.
Nadine, thank you so much for your skills in coordinating not just the wonderful menu, but in helping us plan the flow of traffic, opportune time for cake-cutting, the terrific punch, and the beautifully elevated display for the cake. Thanks most of all for sharing our enthusiasm for Daniel and Melanie’s special day.”

“One of the most important events we’ve ever planned was a wedding reception for our daughter and her husband. The pressure was on, but we knew we were in good hands. Nadine and her staff worked diligently in the planning process, helping us to understand various options, and ensuring our daughter and future son-in-law had a magical and flawless evening. The food was amazing, and the presentation exquisite. The team at Hi-Lo anticipated all of our needs and made our entire family feel like royalty. It was a day to remember, and would not have been the same without the team at Hi-Lo.”

“Hi-Lo is second to none! We came to Nadine with an idea for a “vintage” themed wedding, fine china, and a gourmet burger bar. Although it was a unique combination, she found a way to tie it all together. The display was beautiful, and the food was exceptional. Our guests are still raving about it! We cannot thank Nadine, Syd, and the rest of the Hi-Lo staff enough for creating the most beautiful and delicious burger bar ever. They are amazing!”

“Nadine,
Thank you! Thank you! Thank you!!! You, Syd, & your crew are amazing!! Our reception was the best ever!! The display of food, and the quality & taste of everything was INCREDIBLE!! I received nothing but compliments all night long about how great the food was! You all outdid yourselves! I woke up Sunday morning with such a feeling of calm & peace. Samantha & Jordan’s wedding from start to finish was the best day ever. They were SO HAPPY! I am so glad that you were able to spend the evening enjoying it with us. I hope you get many more opportunities to cater in the Sioux Falls area. I know a lot of people asked for your information.
The Shriners were also way impressed with your buffet display, and how great the food was. Joel wants more brochures to display. The ones you had brought the first time have all been taken!
It was so much fun having you help with our big celebration! I wouldn’t have had it any other way!!
Thanks again!”

“Thank you, thank you, thank you. We couldn’t be happier with the wedding reception for our daughter and son-in-law, Brooklyn and Jason. The thought and time that Nadine will put into an event to make sure it’s personal and spot-on is beyond amazing. At our first appointment, we were so impressed with her eye for detail, her ear for our ideas, her advice on the flow of a wedding reception and the photo albums of food for display examples; then the follow thru on everything is impeccable. The effort that goes into setting up food displays is unselfish; the presentation of all the foods is amazing and the food was wonderful! The Hi-Lo catering staff that assists Nadine at the event could not be better; because of their professionalism and great service, we could enjoy the day with our guests! As our guests entered the lobby, there was a beautiful dried fruit and nut display surrounding a gorgeous punch fountain (flowing with the best Almond punch), everyone just loved it. Following the dinner, the guests, which included several from many different states, commented that they had never tasted such great food. Hi-Lo Restaurant and Catering will be our go-to catering service for any event we will have in the future. As you can see, we can’t say enough good; the wedding reception was beyond outstanding, thanks to Nadine.”

“We were beyond pleased with the catering services provided by Hi-Lo Restaurant & Catering for our wedding. Not only did we have an excellent meal, but along with it came professional, prompt, and friendly staff to assist in planning, setup, and beyond. We were able to thoroughly enjoy the time with our guests that evening because we knew everything was being taken care of behind the scenes. We knew Hi-Lo would do a fantastic job catering for our big day, but they went far beyond our expectations and we couldn’t have asked for a better wedding reception. Thank you!”

“I was very impressed with Nadine and the Hi-Lo catering my wedding. Nadine was very helpful with not only the food part of our reception but also how to make our wedding reception flow. We had 400 people at our reception and they were through the food line in 30 minutes. The food was very attractively displayed. We received many comments on how much food there was and how hot it was when they went through the buffet line. When Nadine and her helpers came to set up they were very professional and organized, we didn’t even know they were there. I would highly recommend them to anyone.”

“Dear Nadine, Syd, & the Hi-Lo staff: Thank you! Thank you! Our daughter, Lynsey and son-in-law Cody’s wedding is now a wonderful memory for us, made possible by you and your staff. The reception food was fantastic! The white chocolate and milk chocolate fountains with all the dippers welcomed our guests to a perfect beginning to the reception. The tiered fruit, vegetable and bread displays were so beautiful, with white lights glowing—a terrific Hi-Lo touch. We heard comment after comment from our guests about how great the prime rib was… “The best we’ve ever had!” We had guests from Denver, the Twin Cities, Omaha, and the Sioux Falls areas tell us that they had never experienced a reception dinner with such a beautiful presentation and high quality food as we had at our reception. The Hi-Lo staff was very efficient, and assisted us with everything quickly and cheerfully. Nadine’s creativity in decorating went above and beyond what we even imagined. Everything was so beautiful! Thank you so much for everything you did to make Lynsey and Cody’s wedding reception an unforgettable evening! We highly recommend Hi-Lo Restaurant & Catering to everyone because we know from experience that they will be taken care of by the very talented and professional staff. You make special events extra special!”

“To The Staff at the Hi-Lo Club, We would like to thank the Hi-Lo Club for all your preparation, set-up, and service for our wedding on February 1st. We were so pleased with our services from the Hi-Lo, from our initial meeting to find out a little more to the tear down of our event. Having a fun celebration with our closest friends and family was important to us, as well as having a meal that folks would leave pleased about. We met with the Hi-Lo Club to see what sorts of options were available, and were delightfully overwhelmed with what they had to offer. The staff took time to listen to what we imagined our wedding day to look like, from the ceremony to the reception. We had a menu in mind for our day that was not on the menu the Hi-Lo offered, but they were excited to try something new and were happy to use their expertise to make it a full buffet. The week of our wedding, the Hi-Lo staff was “on their game”! Staff took time to meet with us and walk through our venue hall, talking through the smallest details of the night. We never knew a line of food could look as elegant and beautiful as the Hi-Lo made the buffet lines, dessert table and snack station look. The evening of our wedding the Hi-Lo staff was absolutely wonderful. We knew we had nothing to worry about and they would take care of our guests. We have received many compliments about how wonderful the food and services were throughout the night, all thanks to the Hi-Lo. As you can see, we were very impressed with the Hi-Lo Club’s catering services. We would and have recommended them to other folks who are looking for someone to make their special event memorable. We are happy to have such a professional, reliable, and outstanding service in the local area. With sincere appreciation,”

The food presentation, quality and quantity was “spot on” and I heard many positive comments. Kind Regards,”

“Thank you and your team so much for making Jen & Bill’s wedding and reception such a wonderful & memorable occasion. Although our first meeting with you as our wedding planner was overwhelming, you made the process run so smoothly. We had no idea that it helps to have a ‘theme’ to build on. I remember as we visited with you, you asked Jen & Bill what they liked to do together. Among other things, they mentioned fishing and that ended up being their theme. At that point, they were off and running. They had so much fun with that theme – fish net on the bridal party’s table, bobbers, and miscellaneous fishing items. They even had small buckets on all of the tables filled with gold fish crackers, and a toy fishing pole leaning against them. They were a hit. You were so helpful in their meal planning for the reception with your huge variety of food items for all types of meals, from simple to extravagant. The meal seemed to be a topic of conversation among the guests. They absolutely loved the food selections. What was to be hot was hot, and what was to be cold was cold. The items that you brought to decorate our venue were beautiful, from the lattice panel and columns, to the beautifully lit bridal party table, food tables, and tables for the cake display. Thank you again for helping make this celebration so memorable. You treated us all as family, and that’s how we felt. We were blessed to have you by our sides throughout this wedding process. We will not hesitate to mention your name when we hear of a couple getting married. You’re the best! Sincerely,”
