1. A few Testimonials!
“I have used Saffron Caterers and Events for the last two years for one of the most prestigious
events in our calendar- our annual private roundtable dinner for the chief operating officers
of some of the largest financial institutions in the world.
Saffron takes care of everything from booking the venue, to providing the waiting staff to
catering the entire event. With Saffron, everything is delivered and executed with such
precision and care. We have received some outstanding feedback from our guests in terms
of the quality of the food and service delivered at these events.
Kelly, in particular, is like our security blanket, always reassuring and always on top of the
event. With her involved, nothing can go wrong!
I cannot recommend Saffron highly enough.”

Hi Kelly, once again, a huge thanks to you, Gareth and all your team for all your help and for
making the event the success it was. The food was amazing and we received so many
compliments about it.
Really looking forward to working again with you :)

Hiya Kelly and happy new year!!
Thank you guys so much for a wonderful wedding - everyone commented on the great food
and smooth and friendly service, and both my family and Gary's were saying how great you
were especially!! I couldn't agree more - was such a pleasure working with you, we couldn't
have asked for anyone better - you're so friendly and chilled while being amazingly
professional and proactive!

Hi Kelly,
Hope all is well.
We just wanted to say a huge thank you for all of your help and support in the run up to our
wedding, and on the day itself. We had SUCH an amazing time, and our guests absolutely
loved it! We've had so many comments about how well organised the day was, how beautiful
the venue, how good the food was and what a full-on party it was! You and all the team did a
fantastic job.
Thank you

2. Dear Kelly, Gareth and the team,
What a magical day we had on Saturday, we cannot thank you enough for the delicious
canapes, starter, main and pudding and for helping create such a beautiful dining room!
You looked after us so beautifully and everyone told us how delicious the food was which we
whole heartedly agree with!
You were all absolutely amazing and we were so happy that we could relax in the knowledge
that we were in safe hands. If we have any parties in the future, we will come your way!

Dear Gareth and Kelly,
Just a short note to thank you and your staff for all your hard work on Saturday. The day ran
very smoothly and without you both it wouldn’t have done so.
The food was excellent and everyone commented how enjoyable it was. So thank you both.
I know what hard work it is in the catering world but you both made it look easy so thank you
from us all. With bests wishes to you both.

Hello from Mr and Mrs White!
We’re back to reality after two weeks on planet honeymoon and we wanted to drop you a
note to say thank you so much to you, Gareth and all the other staff that worked so hard to
make our day so perfect. The organisation and event management was seamless and the food
was completely superb. We had so many comments along the lines of ‘best food I’ve had at a
wedding’ and they were completely right, it really was excellent. Throughout the whole
wedding planning experience, we were so impressed with the level of quality. The fact that
your food was amazing and that you made the effort to come to us to do the tasting (we had
to go to the others, often on a not very nice industrial estate) really sealed the deal as far as
we were concerned.
Thanks again for everything. Wishing Saffron all the very best for the future.
Harriet and Tom, 25th June, 2016, St Stephens wedding
3. Dear Kelly and Gareth,
The thank-you letters for Nicky and Rich’s wedding have been tumbling onto our hall floor,
and we thought you might be pleased with the comments they contain:
‘Food and drink markedly good’,
‘Never ending delicious food and drink charmingly delivered’,
‘the food and wine were fantastic’,
‘the catering was stunningly good: not only delicious canapés but what a wonderful dinner
afterwards’,
‘the food throughout was the tops’,
‘the dinner was really delicious – such a clever chef to get the beef just right for all those
numbers’,
‘dinner was delicious’,
‘the canapés (especially the mini beef wellington) were superb, as was the crab, steak;’
We completely agree with our guests, we thought you did a fantastic job, not only with the
amazing food, but also with the entire organisation. It was a calm, thoughtful, charming
performance, carried out with wonderful precision. We couldn’t have been more pleased.
Please do not hesitate to use us as a reference for Saffron, and indeed friends who will be
using you later in the year (who were not at the wedding) have already asked us about you,
and we were delighted to give you a five-star rating!
Thank you!
Yours sincerely, David and Jeanette Kent-Lemon, August, 2016
“Within 5 minutes of meeting Gareth and Kelly we knew Saffron would cater our wedding.
They really listened to what we wanted and came up with ideas to help shape our thoughts,
but it was a very relaxed and free-flowing conversation.
The food at our wedding was extremely important to us and what Gareth delivered was
outstanding in both taste and presentation. We received so many compliments from our
guests but one encapsulates them, my aunt said “the food was the best I’ve ever had at a
wedding”.
Kelly was superb both in the lead up to the wedding and the actual day. Every request was
met and she was reassuringly relaxed with us both. She even helped find us a band and a
photographer which was definitely above and beyond the call of duty!
Essentially they’re great people who happen to be excellent at their respective jobs. We're so
pleased we chose Saffron and can't thank them enough for their huge contribution to our
day. “

4. Dear Kelly,
I just wanted to get in touch to say THE BIGGEST THANK YOU of all to you and your team for
making our wedding day the day it was.
From the day we met I knew we'd be working with you guys as we just clicked. And then the
tasting at our house was the most special experience (even as the business grows, never
change this - it's so unique!) with the most delicious food.
In the lead up to the day, Kelly you were such a pleasure to work with - you have such a can-
do, solution based approach which is so critical in this line of work (but is a quality missing in
many people) and you were so responsive to all our questions and my many emails. As I've
worked and organised large scale events, I may have been a slightly difficult and on-it client
but you delivered on the day perfectly. It was the most perfect wedding day for us and one
epic party. You may have noticed our mates can party in style!!
I am so pleased we choose Grove House (it's the most gorgeous venue in London in my
opinion) but it wouldn't have been what it was without you and your team. Gareth thanks for
the most delicious food (I hear the veggie/vegan option was a real hit too) and Kelly just thank
you for being you.
We hope Saffron continues to grow and thrive - you deserve every success.
I'd love to speak on the phone sometime Kelly when you have a chance, but enjoy wedding
season and keep shining!
Lisa and Monty xxxx, May, 2016, Grove House wedding
