When we hired Summit Events for our daughter’s wedding a month ago, we had so many questions and much anxiety about having an “at-home wedding” – parking, food choices, numbers of tables and chairs, settings, overall layout, sequence of events..., etc. However, when we met with Pam, she put our minds at ease. Her confidence and experience was so reassuring. Where and how to park all of our guests was one of our biggest concerns. Pam quickly addressed this issue, provided options and gave us a recommendation for a Shuttle service even before we booked Summit Events - we were so impressed by her willingness to help. Once we decided to go with Summit Events, we were continually “wowed.” Pam handled everything---she came to our house for a walk-thru and we were all able to envision how things “would actually work.” She developed the timeline, determined the number of cooks and servers, ordered the rentals of tables, linens, glass and flatware, and coordinated the bartender service.
We also loved the way Summit Events conducts their food tasting. Combined with other couples pending food decisions, Summit served a variety of appetizer, entree, side dish and dessert options. It was so helpful to taste even more than we chose, so we could amend our menu if desired.
Throughout the process, Pam was on top of everything. She was always there when we needed her and she answered every question - big or small. We especially appreciated her personal touch and the many time-saving and money-saving ideas she offered.
On the day of our wedding, the event crew was fantastic. They were all professionals and obviously an experienced “wedding team.” The presentation and quality of the menu items were beyond expectation. Since the team used propane grills to prepare the food on site, it was fresh and cooked to perfection. The fillets were marvelous. The serving staff was also so very helpful and attentive - our guests felt special. We’re still getting compliments for the food and service. As a bonus, our leftovers were nicely wrapped and placed in our fridge.
The lovely touches - the cucumber water and the coffee bar with GREAT coffee – and the incredible tray-passed appetizers (ahi on cucumber, tomato soup with grilled cheese sandwich wedge) were over-the-top!
By the end of our perfect-wedding-day, the serving staff had everything cleaned and packed-up so fast…It felt like they left with the last guest.
Sincere thanks to Pam and the amazing staff at Summit Events. We will forever remember this wonderful day. Everything was perfect. Our daughter said it best when she looked at us and said, “This was so great; can we do it again?”
