Hi, my name is Patty Downs, and I attended a party at
Norma and Ranson Webster's on New Year's Eve. I just wanted to let you know
what a wonderful job your catering company did on the food and service. The
presentation was beautiful, the food delicious and the staff was wonderful.
Your staff was pleasant, helpful and smiled. The chilean sea bass was to die
for. You guys did a great job!

Dear Mountain Magic:
It was sensational! Beautiful presentation and very
professional. People were raving about the food even those that did not usually
eat fish loved the sea bass. Thank you for your professionalism.

DearMountain
Magic,
The Rouda family would like to send you our heartfelt
THANK YOU, for making our wedding weekend such a success!!!!!. Peter, the food
was delicious, plentiful and colorful. ... your staff were indeed great,
courteous and very willing to make all of our guests feel as they were being
taken care of in our own home. This service blossoms under your "hands on",
approach to all of the details that constitute an incredible event. As an event
coordinator I was in two spaces, one being the mom and the other being the
coordinator. So it was wonderful to be able to turn over the reins to my staff
and yours. They worked together as a team, which I do appreciate. When one does
become a guest, it was exactly what we all envisioned a truly "enchanted forest
wedding".
Very truly yours,
Sue, Ron, Meika and Chris

I wanted to tell how delicious and lovely the food and
buffet was for Amy's wedding on September 8th. All our friends complimented the
food and I thought you'd like to hear this. And everyone said the table was
beautiful. We are so glad we used Mountain Magic and I'd be happy to give you
and Peter an A+ recommendation! Thank you so much for a great job.
Sincerely,

Hi Mountain Magic,
Thank you very much for your oustanding work last
Saturday evening at the Thunderbird Lodge for our Chapitre de la Vigne en
Fleur. Your crew was outstanding! The food, the presentation and the
service was terrific. Every comment that i heard was positive - thanks to your
efforts.
I look forward to using your fine company again in the
near future.
In vino veritas.
Sincerely,
Thomas Leonardini, Grand

HiMountain
Magic,
Just a short note to thank you
again for all of your help in planning Carey and Bobby's wedding. The food was
simply fabulous! Some comment from the guests: "Best food I have ever had
at a wedding!" "Haven't had oysters like those since I visited France!"
"The hor d'oeuvres were fantastic." "The wait staff was so courteous and
polite." "The service was superb. My wine glass was never empty!" "Everyone was
sooooo nice!"
If you ever have a parental request for a recommendation,
you may certainly give them my phone number.
Rob and I arrived home at 4 AM Friday morning and I spent
most of the weekend sleeping. I was not quite prepared for the emotional
landing that occurs after such an event. I was simply exhausted. I must admit I
was also in a bit of a daze during the actual event. There were so many things
going on at once and so many people asking questions and giving directions that
my brain went into the Zzzzzz mode. I would never have survived without you
wearing your "coordination" hat. My only regret is that we were unable to
use the sound system because of the wind. Perhaps Event Masters could come up
with some future invention that would encase the equipment and shield it from
the wind!
Since Carey is our only daughter, I shall not be calling
upon you again for wedding planning. However, we have all fallen in love with
Lake Tahoe and I know we will visit again. Do not forget me because you may
very well pick up the phone one day and hear my voice inviting you and your
husband to dinner!
PS. Guess what movie was playing on our return
flight? "The Wedding
Planner!" It made me think about going into business! Not
really!!
DearMountain
Magic,
We would like to thank you and Peter, and congratulate you on a job well done
for our party on June 22 at Sugar Pine Point Park. Virtually every guest there
personally complimented us on your work and on the professionalism of your
staff. We all loved the hors d'oeuvres selections and the beautifully prepared
buffet. Please feel free to use us as a reference for your future
clients.
Thanks Again,

Dear Mountain Magic,
I cannot say enough good things about Chloe’s Bat Mitzvah dinner.
Once again everyone told me what a wonderful party we had and couldn’t
get over how wonderful the food and service was. Six weeks later people still
stop me at the market or down town and tell me how wonderful the food
was.
Firstly, you and your staff are wonderful to work with. Thanks for paying
attention to every detail for me. Also, a thank you for finishing up the
decorating that I was unable to finish. Your staff work hard,and they are
professional, polite, and easy to work with.
Secondly, I would like to thank you for being so flexible and adding your
Chilean Sea Bass to our menu. It got rave revues. I appreciate the
way Peter uses only the freshest ingredients and cooks the way I would, if I
could. The children’s table was wonderful and they loved having
their own buffet table as well.
I love working with the both of you. You make everything look and taste
beautiful.
Sincerely,
Deon and Peter

DearMountain Magic,
"Again, the food was excellent, especially the dessert!!! We hope you
had enjoyed yourselves as well.
Thank you both and Caroline for the beautiful floral arrangement. It is
magnificent with all those fragrant daylilies and birds of paradise. And thank
you especially for the wine. It was very thoughtful and considerate.
We are very encouraged with the positive response to establishing a
Knights of the Vine chapter here in Tahoe. Ernie is following through with the
organization. We plan to have fun."
Love, Margaret
