What some of our past brides and wedding guests
have to say about us:

Hello John and Jamie,

Tom and I just wanted to tell you that our reception and surprise wedding was a wonderful evening for both us, our families and friends.

The food was spectacular which was a great treat as we had no expectations not having been to the hall ever before.  We heard many favourable compliments on the chicken and the roast beef and horseradish was great.  The salads were fresh and yummy.

John your calmness, confidence in your staff and facilities helped us to feel calm about the evening in advance and it all worked great, just as you had assured us.

Thank you, thank you, thank you for making our celebration go off without a hitch.  I was particularly impressed knowing that you had two other big events prior to ours that day and the night before.  I will speak highly of your facilities to everyone I meet.

Our Kindest Regards,
Cheryl and Tom Pasemko


Hi John,

I just wanted to write you a very heartfelt THANK YOU for everything you and your staff did to make our wedding such a perfect day to remember.  The food was excellent and the service provided by your staff was outstanding.  We had so many compliments from our guests about the wonderful dinner and everyone LOVED the chocolate fountain - it was a perfect alternative to a wedding cake!

Thank you again for everything.  Please feel free to use us as a reference.  We both would be happy to recommend you to future couples that are looking for a great spot to celebrate their marriage.

All the best this holiday season and have a wonderful New Year!

John Lewis,

We don't even know where to begin to thank you for everything that you have done for us this year.  Your staff, and you especially, made our day so memorable.  We appreciate so much your patience and lenience with us.  Thank you for understanding how stressful and emotional this can be and for accommodating our needs.  We feel so blessed to have met you during this process and will never forget what you have given us.  Our special day could not have been more perfect.  Thank you from the bottom of our hearts.

Take Care,

Dylan & Andrea Magrath


Dear John,

I just wanted to drop you a line and tell you how much I appreciated all your help with Juraj and Tanya's wedding which took place July 9/2005.  You relieved a lot of stress for me in dealing with the alcohol, and the midnight snack.

The food for the reception was excellent and lots of it, we had nothing but raving comments.  Everyone enjoyed themselves very much.  The kitchen staff, the server and the bartenders were absolutely marvelous to work with.  This gave my husband and I a chance to enjoy ourselves and not worry about a thing.  I would certainly highly recommend the Firefighters' Club in the future.

Once again John thank you very much for helping make this such a special day.  It was a pleasure doing business with you.

Juraj Sr. and Nadaja


To John!

Some people have a way of coming in with kindness and leaving smiles behind...

Just a quick note to thank you and your staff for the wonderful job you did at Tanya and Juraj's wedding July 9/05.  Our guests had nothing but raves for the food and service.  It was a pleasure to work with you to make a special day happen.

Yours Sincerely,

Barb LeBerlowick


Hi John,

Dear John,

Both Neil and I would like to thank you and your awesome staff for making our wedding day a wonderful and fun celebration.  The food was awesome!  We LOVED it and so did our guests!  Thank you again!

Love,

Tracy & Neil

John You Rock!


Hi John,

As the event planner for the wedding, I enjoyed working with you and your staff.  What I enjoyed the most was the flexibility, down to earth attitude, sense of professionalism, and support from you and your staff in helping me make this wedding memorable for both Nora and Jamie.  If other venues were as accommodating as the Firefighters' Banquet Club, my job would be so much easier.

Just a quick note to thank you so much for making our wedding such a wonderful event. The food and service was fantastic. I am still getting phone calls about how great the facility was. I appreciate all your patience during the planning stages and we never felt like we weren't being taken care of. Mark and the service staff took such good care and pride in the evening.

I will definitely recommend your services to others in the future!

Thanks again! There is no way we could have been so happy without your services!

Cheers,

Karen & Greg Dosen


Thank you so much for providing such a great reception for our wedding! It was beautiful and the food and service were amazing. You really made everything so easy for us! Have a wonderful summer.

Brent and Karen Collins


Thank you so much for helping us create such a wonderful wedding reception. You were terrific to deal with throughout the entire planning process and it couldn't have been an easy job considering (what seemed like) constant changes that were taking place!

A special thanks to Mark and his team for taking great care that evening to ensure that our every need was met.

It was really a pleasure working with you and your staff and we will definitely be recommending the Firefighters' Club to anyone that asks!

Thanks again!

Sincerely,

Kairta and Mike McDaniel


Just wanted to send you and your staff a very big thank you! Everything went very smoothly and we had many people say how great the food was and how polite and efficient all the staff were. I would definitely recommend the Firefighters' Hall to anyone. Thanks again.

Subject: Sept 7th Wonderful !!!!!

Sorry I haven't sent this message sooner but I would just like to thank you and your staff for a wonderful wedding. The staff was excellent, the food was excellent, the hall was awesome and you were wonderful to work with.  You helped make my daughters dream wedding come true! I would also like to give a big extra thank you to one of your staff his name is Bob and he looked after my mom <Nana Val> very very well. Everybody that has phoned us to thank us for a beautiful time has mentioned what a great place to hold a wedding, even this thank you just doesn't seem enough so thanks again for making my daughters day. You can use my testimonial anytime.

To everyone at the Firefighters Banquet and Conference Centre:

Thank you so much for helping us make our wedding celebration a reality. Everything was absolutely perfect! We received a lot of positive comments from our guests, and all of us were really impressed with the service. Great work, and thanks again!

Brent & Sonia Nicholson


Thank you for making our wedding so special. We had a fantastic time. Everyone was really impressed with the hall, décor, food, and service.

Great job!

Julie & Ben


Our wedding turned out beautifully. The hall was perfect. The food was delicious and a big hit. The bartenders did a great job. Everyone employed by the hall was friendly, professional, and courteous. I especially want to thank the head of the catering. He was smiling and obliging from 9:00 am at set-up all the way through til the last drunk left at 1:30 am.

On such a special (and stressful) day it was such a relief and joy to be treated by happy, co-operative people.

Thank you all.

Wendy


I just wanted to thank you once again for the fantastic job you and your staff did for Andrea and Trevor's wedding.

From beginning to end, everything went without a hitch.

Your banquet staff was terrific to work with (not to mention lots of fun).

I will definitely be spreading the word to friends planning weddings.

Sincerely,

Diane


We wanted to thank you for the wonderful job you and your staff did in catering our July 24th wedding. Everything was absolutely perfect. The catering staff was friendly and professional. People are still raving about the food; it was absolutely fabulous. Many of our guests commented that they'd never had a better wedding dinner.

Thank you for your easy going nature and constant cooperation throughout the planning of our event. It was so appreciated.

Thank you again,

Lance & Anita


Thank you so much for all your assistance in making our day so exceptional! Everything was perfect! The food was superb! Thank your excellent serving crew for a professional and friendly job!

Many thanks!

Laura & Jason


Thank You so very much for making our wedding and reception so very special for us both. You and your professional staff made our evening so very comfortable and cozy, and the excellent service that you rendered was truly unbeatable!

All of our guests were very impressed with the service that you provided us, and the buffet meal was first-class. Please give our sincere compliments to the chefs and your entire staff for making our special day just that… truly special!

Trevor & Rosa


Thank-you for all your time, effort, and help in planning the wedding reception of Erin and Don.

Everything was absolutely perfect from the facility to the staff, to the food and bar service! Our guests were in awe of the whole event.

I have never tasted a better buffet, and somehow you kept everything as hot and fresh for the last guests up to the buffet as it was for the first in line.

So many of our friends and family have commented on the servers. They were great- friendly but professional- all so accommodating to any requests.

We really appreciate everything.

Sincerely,

Wendy & Dave
