Hi Jon,
I though it very necessary to take the time to commend your team of staff that was at our service for our wedding held at my parents farm in Hilton on the 18th December. It was absolute bliss for my wife and I to know that everything was looked after and taken care of, during all phases of our wedding, preparation, the actual evening and cleanup. Never once was there an incling of worry about service delivery, from your staff.

I must also take the time to make special mention and a huge thank you for your team leader, Ryan. His professional attitude and attention to service delivery is outstanding, the service to the bridal couple and our guest during the wedding celebration is highly commendable.I really believe that this individual needs huge praise, the manner in which he portrays your company and his work ethic is fantastic. His nothing is a problem attitude makes a some what stressful event in a groom and brides life a very hassle-free episode. I must commend him on the detail of ensuring the bride and groom were always happy and satisfied with the quality and quantity of food and drinks during the evening.Guests ranged from top surgeon, doctors and lawyers who all gave huge commendation to the food, staff and brilliant service.

I must compliment CHC for there outstanding service and trouble free attitude, I would most definitely recommend and put forth CHC’s name for any catering requirements in the future.
Regards

Hi Wade and Jon
Just wanted to say a very big thank you to Ryan and his team for the way they looked after us on Saturday, 23 0ctober, at the College wedding of Nick and Sara du Plessis.

The rain put an end to the post-ceremony photos and brought our order of the evening forward by around half an hour and without any complaint or arguing Ryan promised it wouldn't be a problem for the starters or mains.

The canapes were fresh and hot on the cold afternoon.The staff friendly, helpful towards the guests.The chicken wrap starter was delicious and ready on time, even after we gave late notice to bring it forward in the plan of events.The mains was fantastic, plenty of food to go around, I was sitting at the last table to eat at the buffet and all were fed well. Dessert went down very well and was enough for all the guests.

With Tyron and I being the Emcee's, Ryan was always available for us to chat and check times on the next event and when meals would be ready, nothing was a problem for him. I am proud to say I was once apart of the team.
best regards

Just to let you know that the food was absolutely amazing.  It was beautifully set out and was really delicious and your staff were excellent.  We have been to many weddings and this, our son’s wedding, was one of the best catered events we have ever been to. Thank you for making it so special. We would definitely recommend your firm.

Many thanks,

Tarrin and I would like to thank you all for your excellent catering and organisation on Saturday at Eden Lassie.

This is a very belated thanks for everything you did on our wedding day in Ixopo. You really helped to make the day run smoothly and took a huge weight off my mind. On the morning of our wedding your professionalism eased any fears I had and I settled and enjoyed everything. We had a great many comments about how good the food was, and this again was quite an achievement as we had a variety of guests who all seemed to be happy. One elderly lady had declared in advance that she didn't think she could eat a whole lamb shank, but we never heard any more about it. In addition, a number of rugby playing and/or farming types commented on how there was plenty to eat!

Many thanks

...Your team led by Bronson were wonderful and Bronson himself made things so effortless and easy for me! He was an absolute star. Your food was superb – start to finish was simply perfect and we’ve had so many people raving about it. Letters of thanks from Zululand have all mentioned the excellent meal. (Food is of course the most important part of any ‘do’ and you have ruined it for any hopeful caterer now!!). We are proud that we had you doing our wedding (tables, organizing etc etc). We’ve also heard wonderful reports about your catering at the Elliot wedding. So, all in all, thank you and well done! You’ve passed with flying colours!Thanks for everything Wade, your cooking, travelling etc etc are all so appreciated.

Best wishes for a very busy, successful future.
Regards from
Anthea and Phillip Lindsay.

...thanks again for your excellent excellent service! The wedding went off without a hitch, I thought, and that is in large part due to you and your team. Colin and I really appreciate all your help and as Col said in his speech, we felt you went above and beyond and it is not hard to see why you are in such great demand in a place like East Griqualand where word spreads like wildfire!

Warm regards,

We would certainly recommend your company if asked to do so.

Hi Wade

I've been meaning to drop you an email for some time, but just want to compliment you and your staff on your food, presentation and service.

Your function at Kwela Lodge was superb. I've seen caterers come and go and nobody comes close to your standards and professionalism. You have certainly created a league of your own which nobody can complete in.

Well done and keep up the good standard

Kind regards

Hi Jon,

...I would like to thank [Wade] for taking a personal interest in my wedding and for being there from the set up on Friday morning right up till the end of the wedding on Sunday.

He gave me piece of mind and helped me to enjoy the day to the fullest knowing that my reception was in good hands.

The food was delicious and more than enough to go around and feed the many hungry mouths.

Thank you for the excellent service and a job well done.

Hi Jon

Thank you so much for catering for our wedding.
The Thai theme went off fantastically and everyone commented on how good the food was.
Some people even said that it was the best food they have ever had at a wedding.
And most importantly – we loved it! (and we’ve tasted Thai in Thailand!)

Thanks once again
Much appreciated

Hello Wade,

Well I’m back at work (Grrr!) as Mrs Manson (Yay!) and I just really wanted to let you know how incredibly HAPPY Tyrel and I were with EVERYTHING!
Honestly, Wade – so many newly marrieds had warned me that things will go wrong on the day, and I must just accept it and no-one else will notice etc etc .. but I can honestly say that I cannot think of ONE SINGLE thing that went wrong!

The service was excellent, and the food brilliant - everyone has said so ! It was exactly how I imagined it .. especially the starters .. and the cheese platters fed us all EARLY into the following morning, and last but not least your brownies were the BEST!

The marquee looked just incredible – I could not have asked for more ! After our last guests had left us in peace .. after 4am I might add … Ty and I sat at our table with a glass of wine, just so we could appreciate our beautiful tent one last time!

A HUGE THANK YOU TO YOU WADE, FOR ALL YOUR HARD WORK. It was awesome to have you on board – would not have coped without you for sure, and it was just an added bonus that you and I have the same taste!

Thanks again Wade – I really appreciate all you did for us ! Please extend my gratitude to Michelle, (she did an absolutely unbelievable job), Bronson and John. Bronson was extremely organized and I felt 100% relaxed with him in charge on the night!

Take care of yourself!
Best regards,
Gina Manson


Dear Wade and Jon,

....Right from the outset your calm professionalism and readiness to assist wherever necessary, or offer advice, were fantastic and a real credit to your company.

When I look back and reflect on the whole wedding, the realization of what excellent teamwork took place amazes me. Everybody played their parts so willingly and so competently. On the food side, the catering provided by your company and the layout of the banqueting hall and buffet tables was outstanding- wish I had the time to see it being put together. A special thank you to Bronson also for the way he ensured that everything was done to our satisfaction.

Well done and thank you so much!

Warm Regards
Cheryl Biggs - King's Grant Country Retreat


Dear Wade,

.....a special ‘thank you' to Wade for the initial and flawless organising. Without your help we would not have had the relaxed and fun filled evening we enjoyed the reception!

Our very grateful thanks.

Dear Wade,

....I was so thrilled at the way everything was done, and the food....Well Wade you outdid yourself. Your team and yourself are to be recommended - the food was outstanding! Everyone was so impressed, even the hard-to-please ....

Kind regards

Dear Wade and Staff,

...the food, the tables, everything was perfect,
Thank you (of course) for doing everything last minute...
