Commendations

These are some of many complimentary letters received each season from satisfied clients.

Dear Ian,

Many thanks for your hard work in erecting the marquee on the beach front in Brighton. No other firm would attempt the challenge! It certainly wasn't easy for your team to erect it on concrete and brick standing - however true to your word you said it could be done and it was. The wind was gale force that evening and it rained for hours. The marquee didn't budge an inch and we were warm and snug.

I will certainly recommend you, as I am sure will everyone present that evening.

It made such a difference to the wedding reception - indeed without it I'm not sure we would have managed in those weather conditions.

My warmest thanks to you and to your staff.

Regards,

Anne

Dear Ian,

I am just writing to thank you so much for the truly efficient way that you and all your team worked to put up and take down the marquee for my daughter’s engagement.

It made it so much easier for me to be able to have what we wanted and for you to deliver and collect it to my convenience and also to be able to keep the fridge a little longer.

We were extremely impressed with the excellent service and will certainly never hesitate to recommend you to anyone else. It was also so clever how you incorporated our garden into the marquee. This was very much remarked upon.

Please thank your two sons and other employees for their wonderful work and respect in my home.

With best wishes,

Ann C.

Dear Ian and Karl,

We have just realised that we have not sent you a thank you letter. Very many apologies, we thought we had, we wanted to say what an amazing marquee you provided for us and what a special part of the day the reception was and the venue with the tables flooring and lighting was absolutely perfect for the meal and the evening that followed.

Thank you both for providing such professionalism and for having and assuring that everything was under control!

If you have a small poster you’d like me to try and put up at the football club - please send it to me and I’ll do my best.

Thank you both so much for everything, you helped make it a perfect day!

Very best regards,

James and Louise.

Dear Ian and Sharon

The party's over, the marquee's gone . . . . what remains are the wonderful memories. We couldn't have wished for more - it was a lovely day and thanks for all the hard work that went into the marquee and the catering. We enjoyed being able to meet and chat to all our friends and enjoy a lovely meal without any of the worry ! We asked our friends for donations rather than presents and we managed to raise over £800 which was amazing. We would definitely do it all over again, and ask you to do the honours of course !

Our friends enjoyed themselves, which was important to us - we enjoyed ourselves, which was slightly less important but very much appreciated. It was the first time we have ever had a catered party and we were very impressed with the whole day. The girls who came to
serve could not have been more helpful and made the world of difference as we were able to chat to our guests while they did the coats and served drinks. The marquee looked wonderful when laid up. Thank you both, our day was everything we could have wanted,

Dear Ian and Sharan

Just a note to thank you for helping to make Anna's wedding day so special. The marquee was brilliant and completely transformed the garden in a way I didn't think possible, and Karl and his team were very pleasant and extremely efficient. As for Sharan's catering, we have heard nothing but compliments not only for the actual fair on offer, but also for the friendly way in which the ladies went about looking after everyone. It makes so much difference. It was a truly magical day.

Many thanks again and if you would like me to recommend you, then I'd be only too happy to do so.

Kind regards

Ian and Sharen.

Just a quick note to thank you for your excellent service today. It was a relief to have the marquee available and fitted out early on and Sharen's buffet was really well received by all who attended.

Most important, the residents went home happy and the fact that they all took "doggie bags" was the best compliment, I guess.

Please send your invoices to me at the address below and I'll do my best to get the Royal College of Nursing to pay promptly.

Thanks again.

Paul.

Dear Ian,

A quick e-mail to thank you and your team for your excellent service in providing a wonderful venue for last Saturday's party, despite the wind and rain on Friday. As promised, the marquee was warm and comfortable, and your ability to meet our various extra requirements one by one as they occurred to me took the headache out of the secret planning. A number of guests took your cards and I am sure that a number will choose you when thinking about future events. You made it all very easy for me, and what more can a client ask? Your team were pleasant and obliging and responded well to regular cups of coffee. Despite the bad set-up weather they never lost focus or a sense of humour about it all, and were good company.

Thanks again - Heather had a wonderful day.

"Dear Jo

If you ever are after marquees for events in Brighton or people ask you I do recommend this lot that did the Springwatch event. They gave a great quote the marquees were very nice and their team were brilliant.

Dear Ian and Sharon,

Thank you so much for all you did to make Sophie's Wedding Day so memorable. My husband and I are well aware of all the effort and hard work behind the scenes to produce such a perfect day. The Marquee looked absolutely beautiful - I think the first words the guests uttered were "Wow!" Everything worked well, no mishaps at all, dance floor just right, loos very comfortable. You aven managed the weather for us.
The meal was delicious, everyone enjoyed it, the tables looked beautiful and the waiting on etc was done faultlessly.
I can't praise you both highly enough, the day was everything we hoped it would be, and more!
I know how busy you were this last weekend but you attended to every detail.
Once again, many thanks to you both for your hard work and attention to detail. The wedding day was truly wonderful, we will always be grateful to you.

Best wishes.....etc.

Dear Ian,

Just a note to express our warmest thanks to you and to Sharon for your part in making our Golden Wedding party such a happy occasion.

Everyone was most impressed with the marquee and seating and very complimentary about the catering. We were absolutely delighted with it all, as indeed, will be the friends of St Nicholas.

Again our thanks and best wishes,

Wendy and David.

Dear Ian and Sharan,

Just an informal thank you letter to let you know how very happy we were with the All-in-Service you provided for Sarah and Guy's wedding.

Having been extremely pleased with the marquee for Jane's wedding last year, we did not hesitate to book The Marquee Men again this year, and to try the "Whole Package."

Well, we were not disappointed, the marquee looked gorgeous, the catering staff took care of laying the tables exactly as I had written down, and they did it beautifully.

The menu, Sharan was delicious. I have had many compliments from our guests. I must say, the canapés were amazing. In fact, each course was very tasty and all served with a smile.

Your whole team were extremely friendly and professional and we were most grateful to you all for helping to make Sarah & Guy's day such a happy celebration.

With our thanks and best wishes.

Dear Sharon,

Herewith my cheque in settlement for your invoice.

We were delighted with all that you provided yesterday. Everything was just as you promised and all the food was excellent (the puddings particularly).

Jane and I thought you provided a very slick and hassle free operation. We will certainly recommend you to our friends.

Peter & Jane.

Dear Mr Muzio,

My husband and I wanted to thank you and your colleagues for the quiet and efficient way in which our marquee was erected, furnished and finally removed. We were most impressed, and will not hesitate to recommend your company at all times.

Yours sincerely,

Mrs G.

Dear Ian, Carl and Team,

Paul and I wanted to thank you all so very much for helping our dreams to come true. I'm sure on several occasions that week you must have cursed me and my ideas! but I can honestly say that was quite the most amazing marquee I have ever seen, and I know almost every guest there commented the same!
Thank you also to Carl for all your help during the reception with Sharon, you really did a fantastic job. Paul and I will obviously never forget such an amazingly special day, but thank you all so very much for all your hard work and planning that helped turn Mum and Dad's garden into the most magical marquee we have ever seen.
I'm not sure if Katie will have sent some photos separately or not, but if you would like some please let me know.
Thank you all so very much for helping us to have such a a very special day!

Lucy and Paul.
