Testimonials
Dear Del Gatto Family and Mr. Robert Golucci:
On Sunday, May 2, 2010, our daughter, Shara Hirshfield, was married at the One and Only Westmount Country Club. Everything, and we mean everything, was fabulous. First, let’s start with our wedding coordinator, Bobby Golucci. He was always extremely professional, accommodating, and so pleasant to work with. On a scale of five, we give him 5 stars for helping to make Shara’s wedding a success. Bobby, you are the best!!!!! Now, for the unbelievable food. We are still getting phone calls from friends and family about the amazing cocktail hour and the beautifully decorated room where the stations were located. Unbelievable!!!!! Nowhere, and we mean nowhere, have we ever experienced anything like the quality of food and impeccable service at the Westmount. From the jumbo shrimp to the deli and Tuscan stations, the selections were served beautifully and oh, so delicious!!!! Now, for the finale. They say that guests remember only two important parts of a wedding reception, the beginning and the end. Not only was the cocktail hour fabulous and the main entrees hot and extremely delicious, but the presentation of the Viennese Carts was spectacular. Our guests could not believe their eyes when the flaming Baked Alaska, crepes, chocolate fountain, and gelato carts were rolled out. A most impressive sight!!!! We have been to many, many high-end weddings, but we must say that the staff, service, quality of food, presentation, and the overall package that the Westmount provided was magnificent. We cannot thank you enough for helping to make our daughter’s wedding such a memorable event for all of us. For anyone looking for a breathtaking venue, unbelievable food and service, the One and Only Westmount Country Club is the #1 place to have a wedding in the tri-state area.
Again, thank you for helping to make our daughter’s wedding reception one that we will never forget.
Sincerely,
Susan and Bob Hirshfield
Dear Friends at The Westmount Country Club,
I was taking my time organizing exactly what I want to say to you, an extraordinary group of individuals. My family and I would like to express our truly sincere thanks for all of the superb treatment as well as the outstanding experience, which surpassed all other facilities.
We are a social family and have experienced many festivities for various occasions and have hands down placed The Westmount Country Club in the Top Spot for everything from the food to the presentation and from the service to the professional managing of the affair at hand.
Remina and Robert’s wedding was a mélange of Wonderful, Beautiful, Stress Free and Delectable, and thereby creating an Extremely Enjoyable Event because of it.
I would also like to particularly thank Bobby with his great disposition; Karen who was very organized and a doll; Bledar who made us feel secure and also the rest of the Westmount Country Club’s skilled staff for the incomparable royal treatment.
You did not allow our bride/groom or guests to experience a sense of wanting.
The care was spectacular. All vendors were controlled and the wedding was run like a well oiled machine.
All of our opinions were proven through the words of our family and friends when they praised at the highest expressive point their feelings of being, “so very impressed”.
I hope to be returning to you soon as a guest to the truly One and Only Westmount Country Club.
Sincerely,
Beatrice F. Gesualdo
To: The Del Gatto Family
It has been 7-8 weeks since our daughter was married and we celebrated the glorious event at the Westmount Country Club. I could say that I have been remiss in not writing this letter sooner but to be honest, we are still coming down from the high and the outstanding celebration our families and friends experienced at the Westmount.
Let me begin by saying our families are most appreciative of all the effort and support we received as we began planning the marriage for Kristin and Gregg. The guidance, support and flexibility by the Del Gatto family were nothing short of outstanding. As you know Kristin is our oldest and only daughter and it was important for us that this be not only special, but memorable. On both counts on a scale of 10, it was 10+ + + + + + +.
On the day of the event, when we arrived at the Westmount, the service and support by Karen and her staff was nothing short of exceptional. From the hostesses in their beautiful red dresses to the ever present Karen guiding and just being there to make sure we were comfortable and that all was going smoothly.
As we reflect on the celebration we have come to the conclusion it was four events in one day. The first was the wedding ceremony where Kristin and Gregg exchanged vows and committed their life together. It was beautiful, sacred, and spiritual.
The second was the cocktail reception where I have not stopped hearing compliments about the selection and presentation of food, the quality of food and drink and the absolute quality of service that our families and friends received at the Westmount. The newly decorated room created an extravagant atmosphere that all of our guests thoroughly enjoyed. All of the extras above and beyond including the mozzarella and lobster bar were well noticed and received.
The third was the reception itself in the Ballroom. The Del Gatto family should be very proud of the recent renovations done at the Club. The cocktail and reception rooms looked nothing short of spectacular. The table arrangements, centerpieces, band, and service were excellent and made all feel very comfortable. The room looked magical. The comments that I have consistently heard is that the staff was unbelievable and could not do enough for our families and friends.
The fourth event was the “After Hour Party” back in the cocktail reception area. As people moved from the Ballroom to the next room, some to leave, they were greeted by what I will call the “Coup de Grace”, “Piece de Resistance”, and “Icing on the Cake” for our next celebration and wedding experience in honor of Kristin and Gregg. The atmosphere was “South Beach” and the mood was “Party” and I cannot tell you how much outstanding feedback the families have received for this, the final leg of the Wedding Experience from the desserts, the chocolate fountain, the slider station, the San Gennaro feast, the cigar rolling, the open bar, the candy bar, and to top it all off, the “Bongo/Percussion Player”. I cannot think of how we could have planned, executed it, or improved upon this very special event in Kristin and Gregg’s lives without your expertise.
We want to extend to Tom Sr., Tom Jr., Karen and all your staff our utmost thanks for making their wedding something we will all never forget.
Out thanks to Tom Sr. for providing the ultimate wedding venue at the Westmount, and our gratitude to him and Jaynee for sharing in Kristin’s and Gregg’s joy on their wedding day.
Our thanks to Tom Jr. for his spectacular performance. His guidance every step of the way and constant follow up to make sure things went smoothly, the year leading up to the wedding and the day of, is so very much appreciated. He was literally available twenty-four hours a day and his level of enthusiasm and energy cannot be topped. He “made it happen” on every level to make the day what it was.
Our sincere thanks to Karen for guiding us all day long during the celebration to ensure that we would enjoy ourselves as much as we did. She completely surpassed our expectations by catering to our every need. She is a true gem.
All of our guests said the event was “over the top” and nothing like they have ever experienced before. In closing we would like to extend our sincere appreciation for a job well done on a very important step in our children’s lives.
Good luck and God bless all of you as you continue to make others happy!
Gratefully,
Michael and Veronica Greenan
