Dearest Dave,
I was so impressed with the level of service
you guys provided! You went out of your way to make sure everything
went perfect. I was so relieved to have been able to come in the day
before the wedding to set up the venue… You truly catered to our
every need! It was refreshing to know that you guys truly are
concerned about your clients in making sure they have absolutely
nothing to worry about. I was able to trust in your expertise and
actually relieve myself of the job of orchestrating for once, and
just have fun. Every said they had a blast! Mom and Dad certainly
did. I can’t thank you enough for working hard to make our daughters
Big Day a truly refreshing and wonderful experience!
Our family would certainly
recommend, Aspen Catering to anyone that wanted their special event
to be a perfect and stress free experience!

Pam,
I returned to work today and received so many more
compliments about the food and service! I was told
it was the “best food ever at a wedding.”
Thanks again for a wonderful event! I’ve really
enjoyed bragging on you!

Pam:
I think the luncheon went great. Thanks so much for
all you did even with some last minute changes from
us. The food was great. You went the extra mile helping
us with the decorating as well. We really appreciate you
and plan to use you again next year at our Thanksgiving luncheon
if not sooner. Thanks also to all of your helpful and friendly staff!

My wife April & I were married on September 8th 2007. I would like
to personally thank Betsy for her excellence in service & level of
professionalism throughout the planning of our wedding. From the
moment we met Betsy for our initial meeting / tasting we felt more
than comfortable as she was able to clearly understand our vision
for our big day. Throughout the planning of our day Betsy became the
go to person for many of our catering & non-catering questions
always having additional resources when we did not know where to
turn. Our wedding day was an amazing success as guests who attended
still comment on how good the food was, how well everything was put
together & how well everything seemed to flow. Thanks to Betsy we
have a memory of our wedding day we will always treasure deep within
our hearts.
Sincerely,
Jason & April Z
Dear Pam,
We can not tell you how happy we were with Aspen Catering. We
received a referral from our friends Matt and Saunders Grommesh who
said “you worked with their champagne taste on a beer budget”! We
were VERY interested as we had the same taste! Haha! Aspen delivered
in a big way and EVERY detail was taken care of. You should really
re-title yourself Aspen Catering and Etc. as that is exactly what
you did for us. The day could not have been more special…every
detail taken care of…none of those pesky hidden charges either! We
were putting together a wedding with grueling work schedules and it
was so nice to have someone working for US and acting as a wedding
coordinator in many cases! The great food was brought up all
night….with many of our guests sheepishly going back for seconds and
thirds! We loved that! I am a member of the Junior League of Dallas
and have since used Aspen for many of our events. They have not
disappointed!
Sincerely,
Rudy Luna and Lisa Thomas-Luna

Pam,
I want to tell you how impressed I am. You went over and beyond and
we are truly grateful. The western extras (ie the tin stars and
acrylic hats) were AWESOME! We sang your praises all night. I could
not have asked for more from you guys. You're the best!
Thanks, Jenina S.
In May of 2004, I hired Aspen Catering to
cater a picnic lunch for the entire 5th grade class at Eisenhower
Elementary School. This was their end of the year picnic and we
wanted to make it special.
When I contacted Pam with Aspen, I wanted a kid-friendly menu that
was affordable for us. She came up with a chopped barbecue sandwich,
relish tray, fresh vegetables, drinks, and fabulous brownies. For a
little additional cost, she provided table clothes and balloon
decorations. The food was delivered and set up on time at the city
park next door to the school. We served it ourselves to help with
the cost. But when we were through, they came back and picked up the
serving trays and coolers and took care of everything. It was
wonderful.
The kids had a good nutritious lunch and they liked that it was a
"kid-friendly" menu.
The parents were thrilled to serve a picnic that they didn't have to
worry about getting it all together since Aspen was taking care of
it. It was a win win situation for me. It was a win win situation
for the parents and teachers, and definitely, a win win situation
for the students.
For my next catering event, I will be contacting Aspen catering.
Sincerely, Patti B.
We have only known Pam since June 2003,
but it feels like we have known her for years. During my engagement,
a dear friend from my church and later matron of honor recommended
Pam and Aspen Catering to me. Matt and I met Pam after work one
night to discuss our desires for our wedding reception in October
2003. We both bonded with Pam instantly and did not need to
interview anyone else for our wedding. We are detailed oriented
people and so is Pam and her staff.
Not only did Pam handle the catering for our wedding reception but
she went way above and beyond what we could have imagined. She has
been in the business for years and has a lot of contacts. She
recommended places for us look at for our reception and with her
suggestions we narrowed it down. Pam also knew a florist and a cake
decorator and photographer.
In the middle of our planning, Pam also took two weeks off to plan
for her own wedding and through it all she would call or e-mail me.
Pam was very responsive and listened to our budget constraints, but
our desire to have things look and taste great. We have "champagne
taste on a beer budget", and Pam made it happen for us.
We trusted Pam and her abilities so much so, we did not feel the
need to taste test the menu items. Pam understood our busy work
schedule and even met me at lunch with cake samples and with her
photographer friend. We even scheduled to meet the florist together
after work one day. Pam was more than our caterer; she was helping
us out as a wedding coordinator without having the title. We wanted
a 3-D frog for the groomsman's cake without a drawing or anything.
We had seen Steel Magnolia's with the red velvet armadillo cake and
knew we wanted a red velvet frog cake. Matt is my prince charming!
Pam once again worked her magic and both cakes came out better than
expected.
At the very last minute, we decided to host a hospitality suite at
the hotel and my mom and twin sister from New Orleans wanted to host
a bridal luncheon for me at my home. Once again, Pam rose to the
occasion and totally exceeded our expectations. There were wonderful
finger foods, small desserts, sodas, tea, water, and even balloons
for the hospitality room. The bridal luncheon was totally catered by
Pam and the frittata was a huge hit! My dad and brothers were
disappointed they could not attend the bridal luncheon, but
understood the wedding tradition. They missed out on a great
luncheon, and nothing was overlooked or missed. No job is too small
or too large for Aspen Catering.
We were amazed and impressed by Pam's thoroughness, professionalism,
attention to detail, and wonderful personality. Our wedding plans
ran so smoothly with Pam. It was a true piece of mind the catering,
cake, and flowers, hospitality room and bridal luncheon were all
taken care of! It allowed us to enjoy our guests company all the
more. We recommended her to another friend whose daughter hired Pam
and Aspen catering for their wedding reception in June 2004. Pam has
an eye for detail, compassion to do a thorough job done right the
first time, and a heart of gold. Pam listens to what you want and
not what she thinks you should have or do. We will be glad to speak
with anyone directly about Aspen Catering and the wonderful job Pam
and her staff does on a regular basis. Our hat is off to you Pam and
Aspen Catering!!!
Thank you, Saunders and Matt Grommesh
For the last 5 years Aspen has come through for us in more ways that I
can possibly count! They are willing to do the impossible and make it
seem easy! No request is too absurd for them to handle, Their food is
outstanding, the staff is always friendly and courteous. No matter how
many times I've called to make little changes they are still nice.
Their patience is amazing! On the extremely rare occasion that there
was a problem, Pam and her staff have done absolutely everything to
make it right. Aspen is the epitome of what service and commitment to
quality is all about! Aspen makes me look great and I love it (so does
my boss!).
Thank you thank you thank you, Carolyn G.,

I began working with the staff at Aspen
Catering (then Aspen Deli) in 1998 when I was employed in Irving. We
had many employees (200+) and a small budget, but Pam was quite
creative in finding ways to accommodate our budgetary constraints
without compromising quality or taste. She continues to do so today
and continues to provide exemplary service on a consistent basis that
is quite rare today.
In 2000, I began working as an Executive Assistant to the CEO at
Mannatech, Inc. in Coppell. Since I had always had such a harmonious
working relationship with Pam and her crew at Aspen, I immediately
began to include them in catering for the many lunches, receptions and
dinners sponsored by Mannatech. Every month we have an Employee of the
Month Breakfast which requires catering for 300 +/- people. Everyone
always comes when they learn that Aspen is providing the food! Pam has
often gone out on a limb for me, catering at the last minute for some
important, unscheduled meeting. At present, I am the Secretary of our
Mannatech Employees Committee (MAC) and now have even more
opportunities to utilize Aspen's expertise. From our monthly meetings
to employee breakfasts, lunches and receptions, many of our assistants
here at Mannatech call Aspen for their catering needs.
Aspen's menu is fresh and appealing and new menu items are constantly
being taste-tested and refined prior to offering. In a company where
much catering is done (almost on a daily basis), this is very
important. Aspen offers that rare combination of quality,
presentation, appropriate quantity and consistently timely and
accurate delivery that all companies need in today's hectic business
environment. One more comment I would like to make is that Aspen
Catering is truly a full-service business! They recently "rescued" me
by handling silver, china, linens plus catering for a Board of
Directors formal lunch. I knew I could count on them and, as usual,
they came through splendidly!!
To summarize, I could not give a higher recommendation than the 10+
which I give to Pam and Aspen Catering. For years now, I have always
signed my correspondence to Aspen as "Your #1 Fan," and now, 6 years
later, I continue that same signature!
