Alicia & Joe's Wedding Day

Hi Marie!

Joe and I were SO happy with everything on Saturday - the food, drink and service was amazing and our guests could not stop raving about how fabulous the buffet was!

Kathy, Colleen and Ashley did such a great job with the food and the bartender was just terrific!

Thank you to all of you at Occasions for making our wedding celebration wonderful!

Anna & Adam's Wedding

Dear Jenny, Luan, Cathy, and all the catering staff and chefs at Occasions,

Our guests totally enjoyed your catering of Anna and Adam's wedding.

The food was delicious and beautifully served. Your punch was the most popular drink.
The serving staff was efficient and gracious. I believe every guest remarked on the food and the service.

I almost wish we would be planning another wedding with you.

Thank you for your part in making Anna and Adam’s day so special.

Kathleen and Carl

Romance and the Staff


The most recent in-house romantic news I’ve heard regards our chef and his bride to be. Yes, that would be James Gatonyo who will be married September 13, 2009, to his sweetie, Hannah Kamau. We all send our congratulations and best wishes to these two very special people. Blessings on this marriage!

Trash Action



Our recycle diva and occasional dumpster diver- is your go-to source for all things recycled and composted. Dianna Kallerges is the pro for where the plastic, paper, and food scrapes go. When in doubt, ASK Dianna. Don’t just dump your “garbage” without knowing which receptacle it goes in. Otherwise, Dianne will start assigning YOU the task of diving for the plastic that is mixed in with the compostable paper and food scrapes! The owners and management of Occasions are serious about our commitment to being responsible users and helpers of the environment! Our recycle/compost practices are part of the Occasions culture and will not be compromised.

Another way to think: Want to stay out of the dumps (literally and psychologically)? Separate your job trash immediately whether on the job site (we have bins) or in the office. This will save you time and energy and make me (us) happy.

Dianna: An added assignment for you: Monthly recycling/composting training reminder sessions (5 minutes) for all staff. Try to do in the Occasions parking lot at the LeMay receptacles.
