Dear Jerry,
There were very many compliments last night regarding the catering.
It was the best experience we've had as an organization as we did not have to pick-up the food, set-up or serve the meal, and also, we did not have to clean up & figure out who had to return the pans, etc. Best of all, the food was delicious.
The Boosters were already saying - "let's have them again next year"
I will check in with the team today & get a final count and will have that check mailed out.
I'm really glad you helped us with the Choir Awards Banquet.
Best Wishes,
Barb (5/9/2008) |

Dear Jerry,
Ken and I would like to express our gratitude for a greta wedding
and reception. I have received many many reviews and wonderful comments
on the banquet hall.......saying the banquet hall was a perfect intimate
setting for a wedding and reception, saying the view over the water
was beautiful, saying the food was awesome, our guests saying they
themselves would recommend Parkway Banquets to anyone.......
Looking back, we don't feel we could have survived the wedding process
with your help.
Thanks for everything

Jerry, Michele and all,
We want to thank you for the wonderful service you provided for us
for wedding ceremony and reception. Debbie was right when she said
I would not have to worry or do anything, that you guys would take
care of it all. You guys were great & we could not have done it
without all of you! The food was excellent, like always!!
Thank you for everything,
Michelle and Andrew

Dear Jerry
We wanted to express our gratitude for making our wedding day just
unbelievable!!! There is so much that goes into planning and making
everything just so, and I really counted on you to make the ceremony
and reception from start to finish. And Jerry, not only did you do
everything we could have wanted, but you went above and beyond!! It
was SO important to us that my Mom be handled with kid gloves and
given special attention with her illness....and you did just that.
She was so impressed and flattered with the way she was treated, she
hasn't stopped talking about it, (and believe me, impressing my Mom
is no small task!)
It was an added bonus dealing with Michele! From the moment we arrived,
she was right there making sure that we had everything we needed or
wanted. Imagine my surprise when I found out that I knew her and her
sister as a small child. And that she was friends with both my sister
and my husbands sisters! What a small world !!
I had high hopes that this would be the greatest day of my life, and
not only did it live up to my expectations, it surpassed them ten
fold!!! Beside marrying the man of my dreams, I had the wedding ceremony/reception
that I have always dreamed of. And Jerry, I have you and Parkway By
The Lake to thank for that! You can be assured every chance that we
have to recommend you to anyone...WE WILL !!
Thanks again so much

Jerry,
Thank you for all your help in putting together our wedding this past
June! We were extremely pleased with how well things turned out.We
know you worked extremely hard to make everything turned out beautifully!
We fell as if we found the "hidden jewel" in Chicagoland
to have our wedding at, and from the reactions we continue to get
from our guests, I imagine they all feel the same! We appreciate all
the advice and patience you afforded us during the past year, and
please do not hesitate to pass on our kudos to Michele she was the
greatest!
Sincerely,
Chris and Kimberly D. |

To all who assisted in Eleanor and Jack Frost 60th wedding anniversary
This is a month late to all of you, but I wanted to take the time
to say thank you to all of you before any more time goes by. Thank
you for your help in making my parents special day so wonderful. Everything
was great, the food was awesome, the place looked so nice and the
view so pretty, the people, just EVERYTHING. Could not of dreamed
of the party being better then it was. We have received nothing but
compliments. Everyone truly enjoyed themselves. Nothing at all went
wrong....it was just perfect.
I would like to share with you the most wonderful part of the party
of all. Our father has Alzheimer's. Dad usually does not recognize
people, he think I, his daughter, is his sister Mary. We were so afraid
he would be having a bad day the day of the party and had different
things with us to help keep him content if he was agitated. Even friends
of his had things such as cards with them to play with him if he was
not content. It was like watching a miracle to see our dad recognizing
his friends and family and to mingle and talk with them. He is losing
his communication skills as this disease progresses and to see him
having a day in which we were able to see glimpses of our dad as he
used to be was such as blessing. Just thinking about it brings tears
to my eyes. This also made the day so much more special for our Mother.
She had a glow about her for weeks after the party and kept talking
about it. Mom had such a good time and also received nothing but compliments
on what a great party it was.
Thank you all so much for helping us with this special occasion and
to have such a wonderful party to remember.
Sincerely,
Ellie Lutz |

Jerry,
Laura and I wanted to express our gratitude for a
perfect reception. We hope that you enjoyed yourself
a little while working. We got an overwhelming amount
of comments on the quality and the quantity of the
food, the cake, and how the room looked. We felt like
we spent quite a bit of our evening explaining who you
were and where you were from, because everybody asked.
Your experience and expertise were invaluable
through the whole process. Looking back, we don't
feel we could have survived with a different caterer.
We really can't thank you enough. I've always been
told that nothing ever goes completely perfect at a
reception, so don't worry about it, because there's
nothing you can do. We feel like we had the perfect
wedding without doing much work on the wedding day. A
lot of that credit should go to you. Never in my life
have I spent so much money and still felt like we got
a bargain!
We will be sending you a more formal thank you in
the mail, and we hope that helps with future weddings
for you. We hope you had a good time and if there
is anything else we can do, do not hesitate to ask.
Dan and Laura Wiegel |
