Dear Hollis,

This thank you is way overdue. Originally, I wanted to send this to you and your staff last September after Ariel's Bat Mitzvah. Your creativity and flexibility made it so very special. You may not remember, but we were the ones you made special recipes for -  peanut, nut &egg free. Everything was so delicious and the Choc Fountain was an incredible hit, and the dance Floor!! Well I could go on & on.

You also made everything so flexible for my mom. We didn't know if she would make it there or not. As it turned out, she was not there, but you changed the seating in a flash & no one except family) knew what was going on. 

and then when mom died and I wasn't sure what to do and I needed to make sure with all the commotion that everything was safe for Ariel - well you more than came through.

Hollis, I will never forget everything that you and your staff have done for our family. I know in the scope of your business we have contributed pennies. yet you and your staff made us feel like Royalty - as if we are the most important people in the world.

Please let your staff know.

Happy Passover and God Bless You and Yours

Dear Hollis:

What a spectacular presentation and memorable evening you put on for the wedding celebration for Marie-France and me. It was superb and everybody really enjoyed the entire evening.

The food was fantastic right from the sushi, the cheeses, the wonderful passed hors d' oeuvres, and then the crepes, the carved meats and side dishes. Of course, the chocolate fountain was fabulous and was a real hit with the guests.

If I could tell everybody what a great job you and your staff did I certainly would! Please feel free to use this letter as a recommendation or you may also contact me for a specific recommendation.

Again, you and your staff did a superior job and Marie-France and I are truly thankful.

Best regards,

Dear Hollis,

What a joy it was to work with you on the dessert reception for Shimon Peres.  Our planning meetings were very pleasant.  In fact, there was not one moment of apprehension for me.

Your magnificent presentation and the delicious pastries and fruit were the talk of the evening and greatly appreciated by all those who attended.  I found you warm,flexible and very much in charge, which is a gift for any event chairperson.

The Shabtais were also impressed with your presentation and grateful for the immaculate condition in which you left their home.

On behalf of the Norman Schiff Scholar Lecture Committee, I want to thank you for your superb work. You are a special gift to the Orange County catering community and we are fortunate to have had the pleasure of working with you.

Please thank Beverly, also, who was most helpful any time I called.

Sincerely,

 

Winnie Ross

Reception Chairperson

Dearest Hollis,

Words cannot express how amazing you are! It was an incredible experience and we are sad the planning is over. We had so much fun and its because of you and Leslee and your wonderful staff. Hollis, you are so creative and incredibly talented! People are still raving over the food, and the martini's set a new standard. In fact you raised the bar for everyone that night.

Thank you for your attention to detail and your unending enthusiasm, not to mention your willingness to do something different. The food exchanges we had were wonderful; you are a master chef. On behalf of the entire Schwartz family, thank you for creating a beautiful day for all of us. I can't wait to see what's next!

Much love and appreciation, Mike and Elaine

Dear Jerry & Panache Caterers:

Thank you for the great luncheon this past Tuesday at the networking meeting. It was wonderful. I might say, it was the best luncheon we ever had for the group.

Your presentation was inspiring! I hope others will take the initiative to market their company as you are handling Panache.

Sincere best wishes,

Dennis Hallon, Director Southern California College of Optometry

Hollis,

The party you did for us on June 20 was wonderful.

Everything was perfect. The food was delicious and the staff was excellent. Not only did they have everything set up when we arrived, but it was set up beautifully.

They served dinner on time, were friendly and helpful, kept the drinks chilled and everything cleaned up as the party progressed, and left the house in perfect order.

We cannot thank all of you at "Parties by Panache" enough for making our rehearsal dinner a big success.

Sincerely,

Tom and Donnette Guiltinan

Dear Hollis, Tori, and all the friendly and competent people at Panache,

Thank you for another fabulous shindig at Randy's house. You always outdo yourselves! And of course everyone thanks me as though I made the party so wonderful. at first I told them that all I did was pick up the phone and Panache did the rest. But then I got to thinking . I can take credit for knowing what number to dial for a great evening of amazing food, super service and beautiful presentation.

Thanks. Michele

Dear Hollis,

You and your staff have outdone yourselves! Thank you, thank you thank you! Where can I begin? .

The party Saturday was a huge success and everyone raved and raved about the superb and unique food. Tori and Inga worked tirelessly to give impeccable service, to clean up and to leave as little as possible for me to do. I felt like a guest at my own party and I just loved it. I can not say enough wonderful words of praise for all of you. You are the very best!

Till next time.

Fondly and sincerely,

Hollis and Elizabeth. Thank you for all your efforts for my dinner party last Friday night. The food was delicious and Sherry did a fantastic job. Everybody commented that she was extremely pleasant, but not intrusive. That's just about perfect in my book. I appreciated your help in the menu choices ... Everything was a huge hit. The appetizers were out of this world! The dinner party was a grand success and I enjoyed being "queen for the day" and not having to do anything . except the fun stuff!

Thank you again. I hope I'll be able to enjoy a Party by Panache in my future too!
