I've worked with Abracadabra Events many times. This company is easy to work with and very professional. If you have to plan an All Night Grad Party for your kids/students, Abra's team has all the tools. From inflatables to entertainment they have you covered.\n\nI'm assuming from the other post on this page the reviewer was confusing Abra's staff with the "facilitie's staff" (where the party was hosted) because I've never had a single problem with the "Purple Shirts" (Abra's staff).\n\n5 STARS ALL THE WAY! Look forward to working with you again! ...read more

by far the best florist I have ever used. The flowers were very fresh and they were well priced as well as nothing but considerate the entire time. They will get business from me again. ...read more

I got my dress in February 2011 for an August 2011 wedding. \t\n\t\nSummary: Great selection, great variety in design AND size, great prices, and great service!\t\n\t\nMy mother and best friend had come into town for the dress shopping experience and after a full day of women looking at me like I was evil because 1) I didn't really know what I wanted, 2) had a budget, and 3) I'm a size 16... only to then try to stuff me into the only things I had said I didn't want, we ended up at Rosewood because we didn't need to set an appointment. By the time we got there we were cranky and exhausted, not expecting much from the outside as the place looks so small, but we were very wrong! \t\n\t\nOnce inside, we were shown around their selection and surprised by how much they had within our budget - and how many samples they had in sizes above 6. They let us browse through and pick however many dresses I wanted to try on, even though that number got pretty large. Jessica was so nice helping me try on the dresses - a rather nerve racking experience - and we thought we'd narrowed it down to a couple top dresses... and then Teresa pulled a dress and said something to extent of, "I know it has more beading then you were thinking, but want to try it on?" So I did. And that was the dress.\t\n\t\nWhen you try on a dress and don't want to take it off... come back the next day to try it on again, and dream about it up to and after you order it, you know it was the right dress. \t\n\t\nFrom there it was easy. It came in surprisingly quickly for a wedding dress (I got lucky and the company happened to be making one in my size at the time). The fittings were fun and they helped me come up with ways to do my hair, etc. Then they held the dress until we were ready to pick it up for the wedding. \t\n\t\nI would never have felt so beautiful if it weren't for Jessica and Teresa's help. They made me feel like a bride... and when my husband saw me walking towards him on our wedding day, his best man had to remind him to breathe!\t\n\t\nI absolutely have, and will continue to recommend Rosewood! ...read more

Wonderful Service&Great; FoodNick and his crew catered my daughter's wedding. We engaged To Dine For Catering early in our planning process. I spoke to Nick a couple of times regarding linen colors and set up times. He was always available to discuss details and it was comforting to feel that we could rely on dinner being perfect. They didn't let us down...the dinner was excellent. Not only was the food presented beautifully...it was delicious. I had many compliments from our guests. Thank you Nick for helping to make this special day a success.Posted byCatering in Portland, ORat0 commentsTo Dine For is a MUST FOR YOUR WEDDING!After dealing with a few catering companies who didn't seem to comprehend our budgetary constraints, we went "To Dine For" and were thrilled. Not only was the price right but, the food was AMAZING! To top it all off, Nick (company owner and chef) was a DREAM to deal with!Friends of ours have used To Dine For with similar results! Nick is the consummate professional (as is his staff) -- friendly, personable, flexible, and without ego! Can you get better than that?Stop looking for your caterer! To Dine For is the way to go!Posted byCatering in Portland, ORat0 comments Tuesday, January 13, 2009Exceptional cateringWe recently have the pleasure of To Dine For Catering's services. I worked closely with Nick, the owner, designing the menu to fit my very tight budget. Our office party loved the pancetta wrapped pork loin, so juicy, and the bowtie pasta with pesto. I highly recommend his services. The staff looked very professional, they were dressed in all black with chef coats and were on top of cleaning up without disturbing our guests. Again, I can't recommend them enough, professional, great attitude, no pressure and curtious. I should mention, we used one of there vendors, B-Side Dj and got 10% off on both services. Thank you To Dine For Catering, see you next year.Posted byCatering in Portland, ORat0 commentsWOWEEEEeI found them online and read the reviews and decided to hire them for our office party. Our costs were definitely cut back this year but Nick really was understanding and still gave us options. Even gave us options for drinks too. All I can say about the bowtie pasta salad is YUM!!! I could have just sat at the table and had that but there was so much more to choose from. (It is still my favorite and I wish I could have the recipe!!) hint hint The beef was wonderfully seasoned and the chicken was the most tender that I have ever eaten in my life. Seasoned and juicy and something that I would have again. The staff was professional in every way and I am so glad that we used them. It made our party great and the set up and clean up was done really quickly without interrupting the flow of our office. I don't think that the left overs will last very long and I know that the pasta salad is probably gone even as I type! I will keep recommending them to my family and friends!!! Thank you Nick!!!Posted byCatering in Portland, ORat0 comments Sunday, November 4, 2007Local and HonestNick and Omar;Thank you very much for the endless supply of delicious finger food at my birthday party. Your presentation was clean and elegant, much like your food you make. We were all wondering how anyone can make chicken breast so juicy, and the crespelle got much raving from everyone there. I hear about "honest food" often and wondered what that is, but yours was just that. It definitely was an experience to see our locally harvested food transformed into a beautiful Italian menu. Your creation was such an unexpected gift for me from both Jason and you. My birthday couldn't have been better. Thank you for making my birthday a very, very special affair. The party continued long after you left, until about 3 a.m. Your food and service wares provided a much appreciated air of festiveness. And I know I'll call you for another one!Thank you so very much for the magical evening.ManamiPosted byCatering in Portland, ORat0 comments Monday, August 27, 2007Best food&catering in PortlandNick is possibly one of the best chefs in Portland who has the good fortune of having a business that reflects his passion for food, and his own brand of entertaining that can be brought to you instead of being limited to the confines of a restaurant. He made me feel completely at ease from the very start, and planning the menu and details /logistics of the tables and tents was a fun process because he is very flexible and open to your ideas. I had a graduation party for my husband, and the menu included the smoked beef brisket (fork tender, smokey juicy), parchment baked salmon, the best vegetarian lasagne I have every tasted, chicken skewers, pea salad (which he made especially for my husband, who loved it), proscuitto wrapped figs stuffed with cherve (fantastic!), tiny cesaer salad cups that were delicious even the next day, gorgeously cut seasonal fruit, bruschetta appetizers and the finale was a strawberry tiramisu that was absolutely melt in your mouth. He and his lovely wife and other assistant wore very nice black stylish uniforms, and were seamless in setting up the buffet table (beautifully decorated in greens, cloth and flowers), they kept the appetizer plates flowing, and considering they were working in a kitchen the size of a jet airplane galley turned out amazing mouthwatering food. At the end of the party they packaged all the leftovers in containers for us to take home, and made plates for any guest who requested them for taking home. They used cutlery and plates made out of 100% environmentally friendly materials. I highly recommend Nick's expertise and knowledge in fine food and entertaining, and will definitely use him again for another party and recommend him to others needing that special touch for their big day or memorable event. He will make it that much more so for you. He is an absolute delight, the value of the food and service were well within my budget, and my guests are still raving about the experience.Posted byCatering in Portland, ORat1 commentsFresh and flavorful food, Best serviceWe had our Mom's birthday party in the back yard and it was a delight. To Dine For Catering's staff was early and had everything set up and ready to go on time. The table was beautifully decorated with flowers and they even matched my color scheme. I can't brag enough about the food. We had a few left overs and ate them for breakfast! I am so glad I got their card at out company picnic, which was also over the top "To Die For" ha ha. All the best to Nick and his crew, you guys really made my Mom's birthday a day to remember.Posted byCatering in Portland, ORat0 comments ...read more
