Jim & Lois Kramer
"How delighted and grateful we were to you and your team for the
exquisite wedding that you provided for Julie Kramer and Steve
Barbetta.
We have attended many weddings and I have to say, the as the bride's
mother, I am prejudiced but this wedding topped them all.
The meal was incredible beyond our wildest dreams. Our guests
were blown away by the dinner and the decor.
You couldn't buy the kind of advertising that evolved from the
superb effort that you and your staff created by doing work so
well.
We were proud that Julie and Steve's wedding could be held at
what we consider to be one of the great treasures of the area.
We know how hard you worked to make it look effortless - and for
that and everything else we 'Thank You.' "

dreamed of anything more."

Amy and Will Nilsson
"Will and I both appreciate the time that you spent assisting
us as we planned in the days prior to our wedding. Your patience
and advice was much appreciated. With regard to our wedding reception,
every detail was fulfilled to our expectations.
The hors d'oeuvres in the Rose Garden provided a gastronomic distraction
as our guests out-waited the brief rain shower. Greeted by a reception
area flawlessly decorated, our guests were awe-struck by the gourmet
meal, its plating reflecting your attention to detail. The dessert,
especially, was a success that is still heralded to this day."
