What people are saying...
Above and Beyond
I cannot thank you enough for all of your hard work and the love and caring you have shown us over the past couple of months. I can honestly say that you both went above and beyond to make the welcome party perfect and your professionalism and lovely demeanor shows in every thing you do.
You saved the day during my little meltdown about the presentation of the charcuterie boards with your creativity and style and I’m so appreciative. I also wanted to complement you on the lovely staff- they were friendly, totally competent and just wonderful to have around.

Getting Everything Perfect
I will never be able to put into words the amount of thank you’s I have for you!! I apologize for this being so late. Life really does tend to get crazy sometimes.
You made our special day exactly what we always wanted. A beautiful room full of people eating, drink and dancing! Thank you for getting everything perfect for us.
I look back at photos and see all the attention to detail and love that was put into our day.
Endless amounts of thank you’s to you and your amazing staff.
Thank you times a million xoxo

Brilliantly Put Together
Thank you so much again for brilliantly putting together a last minute request for a sound system for our event. When the reception grew larger than expectedly and I contacted you for help, you gave us top priority, and quickly and efficiently organized everything we needed. You found the perfect equipment and technician, and personally came on site to ensure everything was set as needed. You are a fabulous event planner and truly saved the day for us.
You’ll be first on our list to call, whenever we need anything in the Greenwich area.

It turned out to be perfect.
Thank you so much for helping me put this special event together. It turned out to be perfect and (my husband) was beyond touched. I really couldn't have done it without you! Marybeth was as amazing as you said she was and my entire family enjoyed her food immensely.
Again, thank you for everything! Hope to see you soon.

The evening was a huge success
Thank you and the team for making tonight a great family event. Given the move (and a new puppy!!) we weren’t as prepared as we like to be, but Brandon, Deena and Daisy took it in stride and the evening was a huge success. Thank you for your and your team's efforts - you helped create a very special night for a family that hasn't been together like that in two years!!!!
I look forward to working with you again in the future.
Many thanks,

I cannot tell you the relief I felt after meeting with you
I cannot tell you the relief I felt after meeting with you and Isi! (Exit 4 Catering) I am a working mom and my husband travels constantly (every weekend from August until April) which leaves me juggling so many responsibilities. To know that you and Isi (Exit 4) have a history of working together along with a knowledge that is unparalleled in my opinion is the best feeling for me, as I just want everything to be as perfect as it can be to show (my son) how happy we are for him. He is the kindest child and has been working so hard for this to happen.

You researched guidelines, enacted safety protocols and helped us to learn how to cope
As we closed out the year of 2020, I thought of you and what an amazing person you are. Such a fine example of how to stay positive and offer encouragement to others in the face of adversity. Your newsletters in the past year have been nothing short of inspirational. You
showed us how to use time wisely getting your staff certified in various things needed for your industry, researched guidelines, enacted safety protocols and helped us to learn how to cope with the sadness of social distancing with countermeasures. I so admire the way you stayed steadfast to keep your business alive throughout all these months while you had almost no events to work, During the past year you have provided a service to everyone else with your good cheer and encouraging messages. In short, you gave us hope for the future.
Thank you for bringing joy into our lives with your wonderful attitude towards life, all the great tips you have provided to help us focus on smaller, fun things to do, and setting proper expectations for us socially as we make our way out of the nightmare of this pandemic in 2021. I look forward to receiving the latest news from you.
You are one of the smartest and most caring people I know. I am so proud to call you my
friend.

Wow! Amazing!
WOW! Such an amazing experience! I can not stop gushing my gratitude to Marylee for her attention to detail, organizational skills, help and suggestions. With Marylee's assistance, I was able to pull off a surprise birthday party for my husband. Including touchless serving, socially distanced seating, proper sanitizers available, disposable and recyclable service ware and more. I never imagined I could pull this off in 2020!

With COVID19, everything was coordinated perfectly
Marylee is a pleasure to work with. She is professional and personable. There were so many details and then with COVID-19 everything was turned upside down. Marylee was so well informed with new CDC and state guidelines as our plan changed to a smaller immediate family social distanced wedding. Everything was coordinated perfectly for our new plan and event. The staff was wonderful and very professional with all the new social distancing guidelines. I highly recommend Marylee to everyone and would like to work together again in the future.

It has been an absolute pleasure to work with Marylee for the past 1-1/2 years. Marylee pays careful attention to every little detail while consistently providing exceptional service with insightful tips and suggestions producing a fabulous experience every time.
Communication is A++ Exceptional response time to every question and/or request. Overall knowledge of the industry is beyond my expectations. Passionate, positive and easy to work with.
Marylee has been remarkably proactive throughout the COVID-19 situation, keeping me informed of all updates and regulations. Her staff are certified, have all been trained on the new precautions and guidelines surrounding our "new normal" and I feel confident knowing my events will be as safe as possible.

Her ideas were great
Marylee helped us plan and throw a 50th birthday party at our home. She helped us narrow down all our ideas to a feasible plan that didn’t break the bank. Her ideas were great and she has all the contacts one would need for a party (ours was 65 people). She is a fantastic resource and we would highly recommend her and her services.

Marylee listened to all of my requests...it was great!
The Stamford nature center recommended Events by MaryLee and I am truly grateful they did. Marylee herself is efficient, proficient, listened to all of my requests, worries and fears and reassured me all along the way to my event, that all would be great. It was great. Her bar staff were the best I have ever had. Did their job without interfering with me or my guests. Her service staff watched for every empty glass, every empty plate and either filled up or cleaned up as needed. The rental company Marylee is associated with have some beautiful equipment and dropped off when they said they would and picked up as agreed. When I have my next event I intend to let her run the whole event as she is just wonderful. Thank you Marylee!

Elegant and effortless for me & my family
I can’t tell you grateful I was for all your care and attention. The memorial was absolutely lovely. Luis was a beautiful man, so I wanted it to be worthy of him. Amy and Jenn did a spectacular job. I said to Amy, I’m going to need you to handle this for me and she did. It was so effortless for me and my family. My stepson said it was by far the most elegant party they’d ever thrown. Because Amy had done such a good job, we were free to mingle and be with our friends. Thanks a million. This was important for me and you helped make it a wonderful occasion.

Phenomenal job
Thanks! We had a great time and got so lucky with the weather!
The staff was amazing - they really did a phenomenal job with making sure everyone had what they needed, they were on top of everything. Also what a great treat to come in after the party and see everything put away, even down in the basement where I keep all of our party supplies. Thanks again for all your help! Happy to recommend your services to anyone!

Brilliant job for our home wedding!

We were able to enjoy our company and relax! The Best!
Once again you were a huge lifesaver for us!! Kari and Dinah were sooooo incredibly helpful, wonderful, friendly, skilled and oh so accommodating. Nothing was too much to ask of them!! Kari had a huge job of cooking a lot of steak on a grill far from the kitchen, and she did it with grace as though it was right outside the kitchen door! Dinah walked in and went right to work, figuring out the lay of the land without me barely telling her where everything was. She was perfect as she helped with drinks early on, and then once we sat for dinner, more drinks, and then the cleanup!!
The presentation of the dinner was beautiful!! I think Kari took pics for you. I cannot thank you or them enough for all of their help. Michael and I were just discussing that we will always call you for our parties; so we can enjoy our company and relax – it makes all the difference in the world. Kari and Dinah together as a team are THE BEST!!!! We would love to see them again sometime.
I never quite know how to thank you with words as Michael and I are sooooo appreciative of the assistance!! Michael and I were filled with joy all day as well, just reminiscing and thinking about the party. We had weekend guests, so our fun continued easily into Sunday as the rest of the house was organized. When I feel organized, I have no anxiety and that is the key for me the perfectionist!!
Anyway, thanks a million for everything and especially understanding our ‘last minute panic’. You are THE BEST!!!

Every client gets her best
What has allowed Marylee’s event business to grow and prosper is her authenticity. She treats every client the same—with utmost respect and love. Her passion for the industry is beyond contagious and it shows in her work and the people she surrounds herself with.

Always calm and confident
Marylee you are the definition of "Grace under fire". When things seem to be at their busiest and potentially craziness you exude a calm that never lets a party unravel or go off course. You always instill a sense of confidence in all those who work with you and for you. You have a way of getting the job done but making it enjoyable at the same time-that is a gift.
Jim

Integrity and professionalism
The most impressive thing about you is your integrity and professionalism. This translates into you making the people who work for you feel respected and appreciated for their own skills. It makes one feel more a part of a team as opposed to a name on a list.

Always ready to go the extra mile
I have been working with Marylee for a number of years on all aspects of event planning and service. Each time I have the opportunity to work with her or one of her many staff I am always amazed at the level of professionalism and hospitality delivered. We have used a number of event staffing services over the years and stopped working with all others once we found Event Services by Marylee. Any staff member that is hired from a party chef to a
bartender are all well trained, properly groomed, perfectly dressed, and always ready to go the extra mile to make an event perfect. It is what I demand from all of my employees and it is great to find in an outsourced temporary position. I would recommend Marylee in a heartbeat for all of anyone’s hospitality staffing needs.

A pleasure to work with
It is a pleasure to work with Marylee. I can count on her from the beginning to the end of the party planning stages to handle the details while I focus on food and menu planning. She helps her clients create a vision for their event. Her wonderful manner puts each client at ease, knowing that the details will be taken care of.

A true delight to work with
We are a couple in our sixties getting married and have very different ideas of a wedding than is typical. Marylee was very open, understanding and helpful. She connected us with several "vendors" and never tried to push anything on us. She is also a very patient person. A true delight to work with.

Marylee's calm, order and expertise are unmatched
I have worked on several large benefits with Marylee and have nothing but wonderful things to say about her services. Marylee provides an element of calm, order and expertise that is unmatched, never mind hard to achieve in this business. She is detail-oriented and efficient and makes coordinating a seated dinner for 550 seem effortless. Her staff is professional, unobtrusive and polished. I look forward to a long, successful relationship with Marylee and her team.

Marylee shines
So, what's unique and wonderful about Marylee?
- Marylee always has a smile and a positive outlook.
- Consistently seeks to assist and support her staff on events.
- Is highly organized and provides plenty of event details: menu, timeline, client concerns, how to wrap up event. Knowledge is power :)
- Is unflappable! Able to maintain a professional demeanor and diplomacy no matter what the circumstances are. It's critical that a leader be able to roll-with-the-punches to maintain staff morale. There's no drama with Marylee.
- Usually able persuade clients to set up and execute the event so it works efficiently. Sometimes clients have their own ideas, and sometimes these ideas are not practical or worse. Marylee is not afraid to voice concerns and offer other options available to the client in an effort to insure a successful event.
- Lastly, Marylee truly appreciates the efforts of her staff, and shows it consistently! I think that any of her staff who have worked with other caterers, staffing agencies, etc., agree that they prefer to work for Marylee. There are many players in the food service industry, but few who truly shine. Marylee shines!!

Marylee made it easy
So everyone seemed very impressed that I pulled off a nice party! (50th Birthday for my wife) I told them I had a little angel help me! So hopefully if they ask for any referrals I will be happy to send your way. I think they were a bit worried for me, and honestly I was worried for myself! Lol! But it all worked out very nicely. (Thank you)”

Always puts the customer first
Where do I begin?? I can not speak for everyone but, hands down, best events to work!
Personally, I look forward to the calm and collected operations you demonstrate time after time again. Always putting the customers first even under the stress and high expectation of whichever company has brought you on. With that said, over the years there has never been a shortage of Catering companies who rely on your skills and abilities to lead the way. Your skills are acknowledged well through Fairfield County, Westchester County, and beyond! From the familiarity and understanding of the staff, the rentals, the in-depth knowledge of food (French, Indian, American,etc) to the extensive comprehension of wines, how could an event be run any more smooth? Maybe if there were 2 of you..
CJ Evans, Le Pan Quotidian Events

Clients love the enthusiasm and professionalism
Although, I have not personally had the pleasure of working with your team I have many clients who love the enthusiasm and professionalism that your staff brings to each event.
It is my personal opinion and as catering manager of Fairway Market Stamford, that top quality and efficiency is number one when dealing with your clients in any service industry. From the feedback I have gotten thus far, your company seems to display what it takes to get the job done.

Looking forward to working with Marylee again next year
I hosted a Holiday Cocktail Party at my home and knew I wanted help serving, but wasn't sure how to pull the event together. Marylee was the answer. In addition to making staff recommendations, she helped me with catering suggestions, the menu, timing, rentals and quantities on both food and beverage. She even provided me with the signature cocktail for the evening. The staff was friendly and professional and I'm looking forward to working with Marylee again next year.

Everything ran like clockwork
Thank you for the planning and suggestions for my 60 Bday party, and thank you for working with my wife in the planning stages. Michael and DeCron were absolutely marvelous. The food and service were first rate: everything was timed perfectly and run like clockwork. From my side, the ability to circulate and enjoy conversation with my close friends and family without worrying about anything else …. Priceless. I hope we can use your services again in the near future and we will also be delighted to pass on your name to friends.

Marylee, It has been a pleasure working with you to plan our family Couples Shower. You are a treasure. Your advice, assistance and support was invaluable. I could not have done it without you. Your staff was superb! All the behind the scenes effort made it possible for my husband and me to be the host and hostess and to enjoy the party ourselves. The set up and clean up was efficient and impeccable. Wishing you the best.

Marylee adapted as party became a much bigger affair
I hired Marylee for a party to honor traditions. The whole event turned into a much bigger affair than I initially anticipated and Marylee went with it. She adapted well to any changes, truly made an effort to understand what exactly was needed, provided excellent ideas to get all things organized, and suggested improvements/changes to what I thought I needed with what I actually needed because she is an expert at event planning.

Marylee and her staff worked so well together and were so efficient. Party was a complete success thanks to all their hard work and effort. My guests were so impressed with their presentation and hospitality and were complimenting me all night about how amazing and organized the party was. My kitchen was spotless and all dishes were cleaned and food stored away. This was the first time my husband and I were able to relax and enjoy ourselves.

Marylee is an absolute pleasure to work with! From the very beginning, I knew she would handle every little detail. Even when I had a last-minute request Marylee was on top of it.
Marylee took care of everything from staffing, rentals, decor and even terrific drink suggestions. We chose the blueberry white sangria and my guests raved about it!

The staff was attentive, proactive, and asked appropriate questions to make a relaxing experience for my family. We were very pleased. They even thought to bring us a dish of our favorite meal item (skirt steak) before it quickly disappeared and set aside a sampling of desserts as well! 80 people at my home went off perfectly!

Extremely detail-oriented
From planning to finish everything was superb and easy. We didn't have to worry about anything. Marylee is excellent to deal with and extremely detail-oriented. The staff at our event was top-notch and thoroughly professional. They left my home the way it looked even before the party started. No need to look anywhere else when planning an event.

Amazing. My wife was thrilled.
Marylee was amazing in helping me plan my wife's 50th birthday. To say I could not have done it without her would be a severe understatement. She was professional and remembered all the details about throwing a good party! Most importantly is my wife was thrilled and had a great birthday celebration. Thank you Marylee.

Marylee's staff were superstars
I found Marylee through a local fb group when I needed staffing help for my Passover Seder. Having never heard of the company nor personally knowing the individual recommending them, I was anxious but desperate. I left a message and heard back from Marylee herself same day.
With the very first conversation, I knew I had struck gold with finding a fabulous new resource! Marylee demonstrated that she knew her business by asking all the right questions and offering great suggestions specifically geared for my event.
As the event day approached, Marylee kept on-going communications through emails and calls. If I ever had a need to reach out she always responded the same day! Because we hadn’t met face to face, we had tried to arrange a quick hello. When that didn’t pan out before the party, Marylee made a special point to come to my home with her staff on the day of just to introduce herself and offer her support.
Everything leading up to my party went smoothly, but the real test would always be her staff. Marylee assigned Sean & Victoria to work my party. They were both superstars! I wouldn’t be able to criticize either if I tried. Both were professional, skilled, hardworking, smart, kind, intuitive, and needed minimal guidance from me. I would request and recommend them again.
As someone who enjoys entertaining, I am always looking for companies to assist with throwing a great party. But, I also tend to be a perfectionist and end up focusing on what didn’t go according to plan. Events by Marylee never disappointed my high expectations. From the first phone call to the party cleanup, I was absolutely thrilled with their services. I not only wholeheartedly recommend Marylee, but I look forward to using her again and again.

You will NEVER be disappointed
I have used Marylee for large events (50th birthday party), a sit down elegant dinner for 40, graduation party and even my own holiday parties. Large or small, inside or outside my home the service, attention to detail, planning and the ability to stay on budget were always superb. She listens and responds quickly and thoroughly. Her staff are professional and courteous. I could choose to be involved or never lift a finger and everything was always executed beautifully. I cannot say enough wonderful things about Marylee - one thing is for certain you will NEVER be disappointed and you will want to use her again and again!

Wonderful!
It was a wonderful night. We were so happy to have Angela, she was very professional and helpful. She jumped in and helped wherever needed.
We could not have been happier with her. I am so glad you were recommended to me as it would have been a lot harder to have this party and we hope to keep the tradition going as long as we can.
Happy New Year!
