Brandywine Events5/31/2007Lou Marrocco is pleased to announce the formation of Brandywine Events, a planning and event firm.
Brandywine Events will plan and produce turn-key events and meetings by offering all related services: food, beverage, and logistics.
Whether for corporate or social purposes, Brandywine will search for an appropriate site and liaison with the site for the client.
Brandywine will secure all components of the event, including catering and entertainment, and provide logistical representation to the venue.
“Our difference,” Marrocco said, “is our ability to provide the creative ideas to make the event memorable or the meeting more effective.”
He added, “We have a vast network of high quality suppliers in all categories to accommodate any needs of our clients.”
Marrocco has been in the hospitality arena for 30 years, including catering, restaurant management, and event planning and production. He is well known in the western suburbs of Philadelphia from the company he founded and operated for 14 years, Catering, Inc.
A Certified Meeting Professional (CMP), Marrocco is a member of the board of directors of the Philadelphia Area Meetings Professional International (PAMPI).
Brandywine Events will focus on the needs of clients in Philadelphia and Wilmington and their respective suburbs. But Marrocco said the company will serve its clients anywhere in the world.
He also intends to specialize in destination weddings, for which he has coordinated a very successful wedding in Jamaica last November.
A resident of West Chester, Marrocco has been in this area for over 20 years, arriving in 1986 to open and operate an office for Ridgewell Catering of Washington.
“Our goal,” he said, “is to satisfy needs of my clients by exceeding their expectations. We intend to build our reputation on service and results.”

Marjeane Caterers, Inc. Fundraiser12/17/2007We are asking for your help in a worthy cause.
On January 12, 2008, Marjeane Caterers, Inc. will be hosting a fundraiser for a local bride, Victoria, who lost her fiancée, Patrick, on September 17, 2007, just 5 days prior to their wedding reception on September 22, 2007. Due to this tragic loss, Victoria had to cancel her reception. Without Patrick’s income, Victoria and her son are now at risk of losing their home. The facility she was to have her reception at has not refunded any of her money at this time stating that it is “non-refundable”.
We are asking for donations from local businesses and residents for this event. We will be hosting a two-fold event that evening. One event will be a dinner theater that will be a private event for those that purchase tickets. The cost for this event will be $75 per person. This event is by reservation only, tickets will not be available at the door. The other event will be a beef & beer that will be open to the public at a cost of $25 per person (Victoria will be in attendance for this event). Tickets for this event will only be available at the door. We will be holding a Chinese auction during the beef & beer and are also looking for businesses to sponsor a basket or donate items to be raffled at the auction.
We have contracted Mae & Co. for the dinner theater. Best of Times DJ’s will be donating their time for the beef & beer. Secrets Limousine has agreed to donate a limo to bring Victoria and her son here that evening. Glass Slipper Productions will be taking photos throughout the evening to give to Victoria.
All proceeds for this wonderful evening will be given to Victoria. To confirm sponsorship or if you have any questions regarding this event, please contact Brian Lutz at Marjeane Caterers. My office number is 215-855-3510 and my email address is Marjeane@verizon.net. More details for this event can also be found on our website at www.marjeane.com.
