About
Hello, I'm Jamie Critchley private party FACILITATOR. Please read some of my REVIEWS before anything else & know my rate is $45/55 hr before gratuity. Rate goes UP on holidays & HOLIDAY WEEKENDS Now also offering a DJ & photo booth based on avaibility. You won't be disappointed with my service. I'm fortunate & grateful for my wonderful team that make up HELPING HANDS. I also have a catering menu. DJ & Photo Booth based on availability. My name is Jamie Lueddeke Critchley. I work as a party hostess at your home, venue, or park. I can greet your guests, hang coats, offer drinks, heat & pass hors d`oeuvres, heat food, set up buffet or plate up meals, serve food, get coffee & desserts ready, keep an eye out for debris, look after powder room, store leftovers & clean up. I also do a little grilling. I do have Grill Masters I work with as well as Bartenders & Chefs. Ive also been practicing charcuterie boards. If it's a self-serve bar, I would open wines, cut fruit, refill ice, make simple drinks, etc... I will say my business stands out as I know what the next steps are to running a party/wedding where timing may be important if you are renting a venue for a certain amount of hours, or if you have guests that will be ready to leave at a certain time & may be looking for coffee & dessert or something along those lines. Also, for the timing of a sit-down meal, I am very familiar with running wedding receptions as far as intros, toasts, cake cutting & such... I worked banquets for 10 years at a venue in my neighborhood & was captain there for 6 years. That is where most of my knowledge came from. The bottom line is I would do what you would do if I wasn`t there. My main job is to let you relax & have fun with your guests & I do the rest. You`d be a guest in your own home! Its nice that you can go to bed & wake up with a clean kitchen. My staff of servers & bartenders are experienced & some listed in my reviews as well. **4 hour minimum** I can provide 10 wire chafing racks if you need, along with gold serving utensils. I also have a few platters & cake risers. Let me know before your event.Also, I have 25 white chair covers with black belt & black napkins as well.

Jamie and Jan were really helpful at my event. I would recommend them for event help. Even though I didn’t get much of a chance to instruct them, they still worked around and did a wonderful job. Thank you much!

My server, Jan, was fantastic, she was professional, thorough and helped take care of so much that I could actually enjoy my party. Even my mother came up to me and complimented how amazing Jan was and said I should never have another party without her!

The waitress/server I had to help at my party was Georgi and she was wonderful! She was so attentive and helpful, organized and efficient. Everyone was raving about how great she was! Whenever we have another party, we will definitely love to use this company again and request her!
