Dear Provvi,

On behalf of the members of The Huntington Club, Inc., I would like to extend our appreciation for the wonderful luncheon you provided for us on November 13. The fact that you could take us in on such short notice and do the job that you and all your people did, make us all so thankful.

We needed to come in early to setup for our sale and eveyone was so helpful to us as we tried to get everything done. Your staff was courteous and efficient and the food was delicious. We look forward to holding more luncheons in your lovely facility. "The Huntington Club, Inc.,

Friday night was absolutely AMAZING!!! Your team is definitely heads above the rest. Everything was handled perfectly. I can't thank you enough and I know that any future Breast Cancer Research Foundation events on Long Island will only be held at Crest Hollow! "L. Gilbert, New York, NY

We would like to thank you and all you staff, especially Courtney and Ralph, for supporting us in our efforts with the Jazz Brunch for Harvest House. The fund raiser was a total success!

From the first moment we entered Crest Hollow CC yesterday morning at 9:00 AM, the staff was so accommodating and helpful in fulfilling whatever requests we may have made before, during and at the conclusion of the festivities.

Ralph was a team player, and made sure that all was going well from the first moment we started to unload our vans with the raffle baskets to helping us break down and box whatever we bought with us at the end of the afternoon. He was very solicitous of us during the brunch and made sure that all was running smoothly. Ralph made our stay at Crest Hollow an enjoyable one, and one to remember.

Again, thank you for a job well done. Crest Hollow's efforts on our behalf are deeply appreciated.

We wish you and your staff a Happy Thanksgiving!

See you next year!

Sincerely,
J. Costa and Dr. Schultz "Harvest House,

We could not have been in better hands. The ballroom looked gorgeous, the staff friendly and smiling, the food excellent. I was so pleased to see the valet service, as I was concerned that the weather was so bad and the guests would need to navigate through the parking lot. Everything was wonderful, and appreciated. "T. Burns, Supervisor, North Shore LIJ

Dear Provvi,

We would like to thank you for all your assistance in making our Regional Conference that was held on March 1, 2013 a success. The 17 school chapters from all over Long Island appreciate the support and hospitality that the Crest Hollow Country Club gave to our organization. Please commend your staff in being so helpful and accomodating to all our needs, especially Matthew, our Maitre D', who was there to answer any questions.

Thank you again,

Dear Courtney,

Thank you so much for supporting our Fashion Starz Fundraiser held on April 11, 2013 at the Crest Hollow Country Club. The event was lovely and your staff did a fabulous job. Everyone enjoyed the event and the extra touches upon arrival helped make the night that much special. Our event was able to raise money for programs and scholarships benefitting the students of the district.

Our fundraiser would not have been a success without your contribution. Thank you again.

Never could I have imagined how our fundraising event would grow! But Crest Hollow handled it PERFECTLY – not one complaint. JUST GLOWING REVIEWS ... YOU BLEW PEOPLE AWAY! I could go on but I think the best proof is I will be booking our 2nd Pink Promises event at Crest Hollow. I wouldn't dream of having it anywhere else. "S. Ginsberg, New York, NY

Dear Richard,
I wanted to thank you for so many reasons. To begin, Janine, Jerry, Kim and your entire staff are outstanding. They are terrific, definitely a pleasure to work with them. They were always ready, willing and able with a smile and a can do attitude.

Wonderful comments have continued even after the Long Island Hospitality Ball.

Together with you, your staff, your place and everyone involved with the LIHB, we will continue to have a beneficial & successful relationship and events in the future.

Dear Mr. Monti,

I am writing this letter today so that I may share with you my recent experience at the Crest Hollow Country Club. This past Saturday, my son became a Bar Mitzvah and afterwards we enjoyed a large celebration at your establishment. As you know, there is such a great deal of preparation that goes into planning this type of party and there are so many points at which something may go wrong. But I am pleased to inform you that not a single thing did. From the beginning stages where we worked with Sharon on so many details to the home stretch where Eric stepped in and went above and beyond what I would expect, to the contant supervision offered by Matt on the day of the event, and even Steve who worked security that day; in every instance, my family was handled with only the upmost care and professionalism and the end result was perfection.

From the initial "curb appeal" beginning with your lighted driveway, followed by the fire and fountains of the front entrance to the lobby as you walk in past the doorman at the front door, the impression made on a guest is a lasting one. My son and his brother also very much enjoyed what they viewed as their own private VIP Suite which really is a nice add in for some privacy and security during the event.

I could probably go on but, I will wrap it up by saying thank you for enabling me to host such an absolutely amazing party for my guests and to provide the most long lasting and memorable day for my family and expecially my son.

With warmest regards,
M. Rosen "M. Rosner,

Dear Mitch,
We felt so comfortable that our daughter's Bat mitzvah was going to be spectacular, and it was! Your attention to detail and great ideas were greatly appreciated. You guided us the entire way and left no stones unturned. The service could not have been better. We were so impressed that the lights during the service and during the cocktail hour matched her dress! A great touch!!!! I would recommend CH to any family that wants to have a party that is memorable and enjoyable. "Goldberg Family,

My sincere gratitude for your assistance, planning expertise and generosity for my son's christening. I was touched by the personal attention and the VIP treatment you afforded me and my guests. My guests were so pleased with all the little touches—and I received many accolades about the food and service—they were outstanding! "L. Dickson, Deer Park, NY

Dear Thomas,

Thank you for your outstanding work preparing our son's bar mitzvah reception last Saturday (while you personally had no power or heat because of the hurricane and storm!). The venue was beautiful, the food was superb and the service impeccable. One guest said that he had been to many bar mitzvahs, but this is the first one where the food was actually good. We would certainly recommend Crest Hollow and you to our friends and would want to have our future events at the venue.


Thanks again. I hope that your home situation is getting back to normal.

Very best,
K. Wayne "K. Wayne,

Mitch-

Thank you... thank you.... thank you.

We loved everything!!!! Your staff was fantastic.... there to help us with anything that we needed. The food was delicious and the pink chocolate fountain.... made Sarah's day.

You helped to make Sarah's dream come true. "L. Doscher,

Dear Janine,
When people perform an outstanding job, I always like to tell about it!

Eric was awesome! We knew when we met him, our affair would be really special. He really went above and beyond for us all through the planning and right up until the end of that amazing day. Declan, our maitre d', made sure everyone in our party was taken care of. He, too, did an outstanding job along with all his staff.

We know this as a fact as our guests were sad that they had to leave when the affair came to an end.

Kudos for a job well done! "R. McGinn,

Dear Marc,
Everything about our 50th Anniversary party at Crest Hollow, can only be described with superlatives- the fun and joy we shared with our guests- the delicious food, the overall energy and flow. You deserve much of the credit due to your overall supervision and helpfulness. It was obvious that you and our Maitre d' Chris had but one goal- to make our party as memorable as possible- you succeeded!!! We will never forget our "big day". Thank you so much.
Most Sincerely,
Kay & Arthur Barkin "K. & A. Barkin,

Hello Helen,
All I can say is WOW! Everything was spectacular. We love Crest Hollow even more after our "behind the scenes" hands on experience. The staff was so helpful in every aspect of the celebration. We have received so much positive feedback from the party guests that it is overwhelming! I hope this means more business for the Crest Hollow in the future. Thanks for everything.

Weddings

On June 24, 2012 we made our daughter's wedding at Crest Hollow at 11:30am. It was the Stern/Lockerman wedding. Ralph was our Maitre D' and Sandy was our Bridal Attendant. I finally have a chance to write you and tell you how beautiful everything was and how cooperative your staff was. In particular Sandy and Ralph were exceptional. They made our day better than we could have hoped for. They were constantly at our side and took care of all the little problems that arise when making an affair. Any time I or the Lockerman's needed anything both Sandy and Ralph were right there and took care of it immediately. It made our day perfect. I would definitely consider Crest Hollow again when making the weddings of my other children, largely due to the excellent service Sandy and Ralph provided. They are a tremendous asset to the organization and I hope they will receive the recognition they both so justly deserve. Please thank them again on our behalf for making our special day an excellent and stress free one.
Yours Truly,
Kathy Stern "K. Stern,

Hi Helen,
Thank you again for everything. Our guests were EXTREMELY impressed with the Crest Hollow. NO COMPLAINTS! We were so happy that everything went so smoothly (especially with mother nature). So thank you and your team for making our wedding experience the best.

Dear Leo,
Thank you so much for all your help with planning our wedding. Everything worked out perfectly and we couldn't be happier. Thank you for taking the time to organize all of the details for our cocktail hour and reception. Our family and friends had a great time and they were extremely happy with the service. We had the best day!
Thank you again! "Lisa and Joey,

Our daughter's wedding was truly a magnificent affair. Our banquet manager was thoughtful, helpful, supportive and truly guided us through the whole process. He was available to us whenever something came up and relaxed us through the whole affair. Thank you for the beautiful evening. We will always remember your special staff and recommend Crest Hollow to friends and family. "D. & Y. Portnoy,

Dear Eric,
We want to thank you and your staff for making their day a most memorable one. From the moment we arrived until the very end everything was wonderful.
From working at the hospital, I know staff appreciates that we share complimentary letters with them. So, on that note, Bob and I would like to especially commend Herb, Donna and Marina and of course you most of all.
Everyone's expertise in orchestrating the evening and seeing to every detail was outstanding.
Marina's attentiveness toward's Jen's every need was outstanding. Herb making sure that everything ran smoothly during the reception was exceptional. He handled it like it was his own daughter's wedding.
The wait staff and bartenders were excellent to all our guest's needs. Your staff kept us well fed from the appetizers to the refreshments for the bridal party to the food at the cocktail hour which was unbelievable. Every entree was delicious and enjoyed by every guest during the reception.
Our family and friends are still raving about how much they enjoyed the wedding.
Bob and I have already recommended the Crest Hollow to a couple of friends who are in the midst of planning a wedding.
"THANK YOU ALL" from the bottom of our hearts for EVERYTHING! "B. & K. Maguire, Weddings

Dear Mitchell,
I wanted to thank you for the attention you gave our families throughout the planning of our son and daughter-in-law's wedding. From the first time we met you it was clear we were in the right hands. Both you and your wonderfully professional staff showed us nothing but courtesy and kindness as you guided us through to their wedding day.
Our family noted the extraordinary efforts by Declan, the maitre d', who saw to each guest's every need, and Sandy, the bridal attendant, who took such wonderful care of the bride and her party.
We would not hesitate for one moment to suggest to any friend or relative that your kindness and professionalism set the tone for the success of this memorable day.
With Much Gratitude,
Jody Heitner "J. Heitner,

Thank you for making our two weddings at Crest Hollow so beautiful and successful.

Eric, when you began telling us about all the benefits that Crest Hollow provided for a wedding, I must have tuned out within seconds because I thougth to myself there is no way we can afford this place. I tuned back in when you concluded your presentation with the per person fee. I could not believe what I was hearing. It was at that moment we asked you to give us some time to talk amongst ourselves and, as you know, we sealed the deal at the first meeting. We had only seen one other hall so we did not have much experience but we knew a genuinely good deal when we saw one. I think I asked you to repeat everything you said at least two additional times that day to make sure I was hearing correctly.

Well, with wedding #one set up, we had to find a wedding hall for wedding #two which was happening eight weeks later. Of course, our younger dauther wanted something different. So we went on a one month expedition exploring more than 12 wedding halls. After much field research even our younger daughter could not deny the overwhelming benefits of Crest Hollow. This was especially true considering that your kosher kitchen offered each guest a choice of six wonderful main dishes that cost less than the other caterers offering only a chicken dish at their competitive price. We are still raving about the food.

The cost of the service was a big draw to get our attention, but, of course, it's the service that really matters when it's all said and done. Eric, Ralph, Sandy. Wow!!!!!
You did everything you said you would do for us and more. Both weddings went off wonderfully.

Eric, as our Banquet Manager, your kind and reassuring words and support throughout the wedding planning process really made our entire experience with both weddings truly enjoyable.

Ralph and Sandy - thank you, thank you! You are both the consummate professionals.

Ralph, as our Maitre d' you made sure that not only were we well-treated during the event but that we had a chance to appreciate the special preparations that Crest Hollow made for all the guests.

Sandy, the girls loved your attentiveness as their bridal attendant. You were constantly present and helpful in the nicest possible way.

Thank you, team-Crest Hollow, for providing a wedding venue and quality of service that exceeded our highest expectations during preparations and during the weddings.
All our appreciation for jobs very well done by all. "M & G Login,

Crest Hollow made us feel like royalty and our wedding was more perfect than we imagined. Helen was our Banquet Manager. Her kindness and honesty was refreshing, she listened to our special requests and made them happen, her advice priceless, it felt like we had known her for ages. Our Maitre d' Ralph was beyond helpful and my lady in waiting was exceptional. Thank you! "S. & D. McNamara,

Mitch,
Mike and I can't thank you enough for making our wedding a hit. It was great working with you and all the arrangements for the day were awesome as well.The wedding was a hit and everyone had a great time and LOVED all the food and its still being talked about by friends and family till this day. Mike and I actually miss the wedding and he would love to do it all over again. However we will definitely recommend Crest Hollow to others who are looking for event venue and hope to attend an event at Crest Hollow so we can sample all the great food as well!

Big Thank You Again!
Best Regards,
Vivian "Vivian & Mike,

Can't thank you all enough for all you did for us on our wedding day and leading up to it. The day could not have been any more perfect and it is thanks to you three and your staff. You all are beyond wonderful and we have nothing but good things to say about all of you at Crest Hollow.

Mark and I want to thank you so much for your assistance in planning Pam and Larry's wedding. Everything was beautiful from the food to the decor and we were impressed with the Crest Hollow staff especially Ralph our Maitre D and Sandy our Bridal Attendant, being so attentive, polite and cordial to not only us but to all our guests. We could't have asked for anything more except maybe for the evening not to end. The time flew by but the beautiful memories of our daughter and new son- in- law's wedding day will go on forever.

Thank you again for all your help and guidance in planning this very special evening. "Roberta and Mark,

Dear Mitch, Sandra, Paula, Jessica and Mr. Declan-

What an Amazing affair! Your team at Crest Hollow, is by far the best "A team"!!!! From attention to detail, to helping me sew my dress, to attention to my whole bridal party was perfection. You even listened to my requests and had sour straws when I walked into my bridal suite. The room was absolutely beautiful. I was blown away by everything. Everyone worked so hard to make my dreams come true. I felt so loved that day. Everyone keeps talking about, how amazing my affair was. Timing is key in any affair and you all aced it! I had the time of my life. I'm so happy with everything you all did. I thought I was only having one bridal attendant and I had three. I wanted to write you all before I go on my Honeymoon, because I am so pleased with the way everything was. Declan is the MAN!! He is so organized and perfect in every way. Mitch, I can't thank you enough for everything you did! My ice sculptures were my favorite part. I even loved my cake.

Love,
Louis and Lauren "Fontana,

Good Afternoon, Helen

I am so happy we decided to have our big day at Crest Hollow, couldn't ask for more! No worries at all that you couldn't make it. You promised me excellent service and that is exactly what we received and nothing less. The attention we received from Matthew, Marina, and Rosemarie was outstanding. Marina in particular was an angel. She was by my side from the minute our limo pulled up to the minute the limo picked us up on the way out. I couldn't thank her enough for everything she did. Please give her my thanks from the bottom of my heart.
