In his preparations for a Sunday morning, February 24, 2013 large-scale breakfast event for Elizabeth Colbert Busch and Stephen Colbert, Pete Twomey was thoroughly professional in: submitting menu proposals entirely appropriate for the event; attending several major planning meetings and offering advice on main room and green room set-ups, arrangements of food displays, managing audience flow; establishing rapport with and earning the confidence and respect of event planners and venue managers; maintaining effective and timely communications with all concerned parties; remaining flexible by accomodating the changing logistics of an event involving a major television personality and a candidate for the U.S. Congress. Pete rendered these impressive services within a 12- day window to prepare for the event. Pete's appearance in uniform and his performance at the event were exceedingly well received by the 250+ guests in attendance. Many guests complimented the food quality, taste and display. Pete personally met and greeted guests. Pete took the time to pause for photographs requested by numerous guests. Finally, the event was a huge success due in large measure to Pete Twomey's personal care and attention to details, his high standards for the culinary arts, and his prompt, courteous and professional approaches to meeting the public.

From the time that I searched for a caterer using Thumbtack to the time that Pete dropped my decor off to me after our event, Pete and Juli were professional and responsive. Not to mention the food was AMAZING!! All of our guests raved about how delicious everything was. Pete and Juli also have GREAT ideas!! They suggested the venue where our wedding ceremony ended up being held since we didn't know of any outdoor venues in our price range (we are an out-of-town couple and we were planning a destination wedding in Charleston). They also suggested doing blondies to go with the brownies for dessert that we wanted. Pete and Juli really went above and beyond as far as I'm concerned: they booked the ceremony chairs (even though they were at a separate venue), they picked up all of my decor items, set them up exactly as I specified, and returned them to me a couple days after the reception so that I wouldn't have to worry about packaging them up at the end of the reception. I can't thank them enough and I would definitely very HIGHLY recommend them to anyone that is looking for a caterer in the Charleston area. They were so helpful, the food was AWESOME, and they were wonderful to work with the entire time!!! :-) :-)
