From: By Recommendation Only, 1997. I first met Betsy when she and her husband, Marty, ran Marty’s Parties Catering Company. Marty was the chef while Betsy organized events and took charge of their fabulous buffets. I still remember our first meeting when Marty, the passionate cook, whipped up some wonderful prawns for me to taste. In 1995, the couple decided to slow down a bit.

From: Jan Johnson, 1998.  Thank you again for all you did to make one of the most special days in mine and Buz’s life, and the most special day in Abby and Ted’s life. You enabled me to truly soak in the whole day, the long walk down the aisle, the reception, all of it! I’ll call you when we get our photos.

From: Mary Ann Maggiore, Minister, 1997.  Your recent work on the wedding at the Marin Art and Garden Center was just wonderful. Your attention to every detail showed in the lovely set-up and the delicious food. We all felt that the party was taking place, rather than being directed by some heavy hand -- a delightful time! You helped this couple and their children do all these things beautifully, painlessly, elegantly. It was a wonderful thing to see and to be a part of. Thank you.

From Chip Romer and Sallie Merrit, 1989.   Thanks again for your professionalism, innovation, excellent service, attention to detail, creative input, impeccable competence and personal interest.

Marta Camer, 1996.   Thanks for everything! You were so great the whole time. You really made the difference. I felt peace of mind knowing you were around taking care of things. I actually enjoyed my wedding and so did my family and David. It was all perfect and you were both a big part of making it that way! Thanks again.

From Derry Wisnom, 1996. Dear Betsy: You are incredible and I wanted to thank you for your help with our wedding. You went above and beyond the call of duty to make our wedding reception perfect. During the course of the reception, every time I saw you a sense of comfort would come over me. When I arrived at the reception, the first thing on my mind was "Wow, this is exactly what I visualized!"

From: Sonia Walgreen, November 2001. Thank you for all your efforts on behalf of Chris and Alice, both prior to and on their wedding day. All of friends commented on the "Class Act". Church, reception, transportation, music, food - all were spectacular. At no time did Alice, Chris, John or I worry about anything.

From: Drs. Jane A. Weintraub and Chris S. Barker, June 2001. We want to express our sincere appreciation and thanks for all your help with the planning and coordination of our wedding. Everything went so smoothly. As Busy Professionals who are relatively new to the bay area, it is difficult to imagine how we could have planned this wedding without your help. It was great to be able to relax and enjoy the event without worrying about anything.
