good morning dear polly,
not a trace of the wedding here at kilkare except for my files, a box of memories to be photographed and those damn bobble heads. stanford cleaned up perfectly, the porch steps have been painted, my staff has scrubbed all floors clean and furniture moved to its place.

we took the family to southampton last nite to movie then dinner and relived it all. the smiling faces of anna and her michael made all the hard work so very worthwhile.

our thanks to you for all your efforts . it was an enormous undertaking and i know doing it alone would have been too much. all of your touches made anna so happy.
mjk and i heading to nyc this morning .....dentist...office ....HH ...then back to kilkare tmrw morning.

i called everyone on your list and thanked them. sending love,. seems strange not to be with you on a daily basis!!! eleanora

We had an incredible time and people will be remembering that party for a while. I have been totally exhausted. It was a bit depressing to see the tent come down today! They have a few remaining scraps that will be gone I am sure by tomorrow.

The band was amazing and the decor was more than we expected. Bronson is truly amazing. Starlight was beyond fun. That was a great recommendation that you made. We can't wait for Mel's photos.

Thanks for all of your hard work. You should be proud.

You are numero 1 when it comes to organizing weddings. Everything went SO smoothly. We have received so many phone calls and letters about how good the food was, how great the tent looked, how perfect the music was, how beautiful the flowers were - REALLY! - it's a great ego-builder!! It is all due to you and your excellent selection of people.

Many, many thanks! xxLaura

Dear Polly,

THANK YOU for being such a big help in making Alicia and Charlie's wedding the success it was! They will have so many fond memories!

First and foremost, we would like to thank you, Polly, immensely for the most beautiful wedding we could have imagined. It was so perfectly planned and so meticulously executed that every single guest still tells us that it was the best party to which they’ve been. The food was absolutely delicious, the drink was abundant and excellent, and the dessert spread left everyone speechless. Not only that, but people who were not even at the party, and who don’t even know us, have heard how splendid it was and mentioned it. And all the surprises that you managed to hide even from us – everything from the girls singing, to the belly-dancing middle-eastern troupe, to the roses all over our suite – we are still wondering how you managed to do it all (and in so little time!!). We have just received the proofs of the thousands of photos that were taken, and I think we are both just beginning to see it all in all its glory, all the details (and even the guests) that were a little too stunned to fully take in on the night.

So, thank you again so very much. Please thank Sarah for us as well, as she was also great. I hope you enjoyed your well-earned rest in Florida – we hear you are very busy again now (how do you do it?), so I hope all will continue to go extremely well and successfully for you and hopefully we will get to work again on some new exciting party-project in the future, as it was a lot of fun, actually.

Now we are dealing with our part of the bargain, and have to send out lots of thank-yous. So, Polly, Jamal and I really hope that we will see you again soon, in NY, London or elsewhere, even for a coffee.

Thank you again and take care.

Best Regards,

Julia and Jamal

P.S. We just realized after having written this that we didn’t even begin to talk about Friday and Sunday! They were OUT OF THIS WORLD! Really, truly magnificent!
