Recommendation From: Cathy and Mikes Waiheke wedding (2001)

We receive many letters of commendation. For your reference, a few of these are included in this site so you can see what our client's think of our food, service, and level of professionalism.

Mike and I got married on Waiheke Island on 24th February 2001. It was a very friendly "casual" wedding with a barbecue in the gardens making up most of the main meal. However, before that Dave and his team produced the most wonderful array of finger food and canapes that I've ever had the pleasure of eating. This was certainly the opinion of all 60 guests, some of whom, myself included, didn't even bother with the main barbecue (not prepared by Dave & co, in case you're wondering!) but just ate the canapes and then skipped straight to the wedding cake - also made by Dave. Have you ever been to a wedding where nobody really wants to eat the heavy fruit cake that always seems to be served, and there's always lots left at the end? The solution is simple. Get Dave to make your cake, and I can guarantee that it will disappear without trace and the guests will be asking for more. I think Mike and I managed to get one piece each before it was spirited away and eaten. Altogether, the two things that everyone remembers about our wedding day were the view (overlooking the Gulf to Coromandel) and the food, especially the cake. I don't think the wedding itself gets a mention!
Although the emphasis on the day was for a relaxed and easy-going
atmosphere, Dave and his team were totally professional, both in preparation and clearing away afterwards. Both Mike and I considered ourselves to be extremely lucky to have Dave cater for us; it really added to the pleasure of the day. So a heartfelt thanks go to Dave and his team.
