Fabulous Firestone Wedding

Another one of our Firestone weddings was highlighted on the SantaBarbaraWedding blog. This one was for a adorable bride and groom; they just glowed with joy and that dress made me cry! They had a beautiful, elegant set up and then a plated Duet of Halibut & Braised Chicken Provencal; the Red Wine Reduction on the Halibut is musical with the deep flavors of the chicken, very yummy together and then all the bride needs is a vegetarian count so the week before the wedding is a bit easier on her with the duet instead of the preselected dinner choice, also of course theres no worry about guests changing their minds last minute. The groom is a dentist so - of course - a candy station was a de rigueur tongue in cheek addition that everyone just loved.

Pure Joy invited to be part of a "refreshingly couture wedding resource"

We just got an exciting and quite flattering phone call today! Pure Joy Catering has been formally invited to be included in the Style Me Pretty Little Black Book!!
The E mail they sent after the call said;

Why have we selected you?

Because we genuinely admire the high quality of your catering, Lynette, your expertise in the following areas has impressed our team:
--exceptional customer care
--superior design style
--the continual honing of one’s craft
--a genuine interest in fostering a relationship with the client
--highly recommended by colleagues and clients

How good does that feel?! Honestly I think this is my favorite week ever (so far)...

Also just got some photos back from Photographer Alex Neumann of a Pure Joy event with Chef Manned Pasta Station, Cosmos of Salads and Grilled Bites, Sushi Rolling Station, Shake Shake Shake Martinis and it was yum & so fun for the lucky guests up on the top of the Santa Barbara Riviera.

Happy Groom!!!

What a lovely & gracious man wrote this review of Pure Joy. I'm sure he has a wonderful Mother & now a very lucky Bride!!! It's so warming to read his kind words, Patrick, our Operations Manager & his whole staff are beaming and will for a while. Some day ~ if you haven't already ~ you must see our bathroom downstairs (really!) it is wallpapered with thank you notes, and for us it's like getting a great big hug going in there and seeing thousands of kind words and knowing people noticed our work on the busiest, happiest days of their lives. Makes these 14 hour days all the more worth it!
