Char and Cookie did that for me and are real pros. I highly recommend them and look forward to working with them again. Plus, the check didn’t bounce!”
- Louie Anderson, Comedian

We are getting rave reviews and you two deserve much of the credit!" - Laura Mylan, Director Public Outreach and Communications,Saint Paul Riverfront Corporation

- Christopher B. Coleman, Mayor, City of Saint Paul
"We’ve been getting so many nice compliments about last night. Thank you for all you did to make the evening a warm, enjoyable, intimate, and memorable event for our guests. The venue looked beautiful; the décor was stunning. We were blown away by how quickly the room was transformed into our own Hogwarts. And the biggest success was turning the floor plan around in order to accommodate more people and improve the site lines. Thanks for figuring that out, alleviating our worries, and adding your considerable expertise, judgment, and professionalism. It was a pleasure working with you both." - A recent client
"Coleman Mason Events stands out because of its professionalism, turn-key service, and sense of fun. From the first planning meeting through the end of the event, the members of the team are thorough, reliable and sane."- Rich Meyer, Abbott Northwestern Hospital Foundation
“Just a quick note to thank you and your team for the excellent job you did on the three 50th Anniversary events. I know the timeline was short, the money was tight and the complications were many, but none of that was evident to our guests. We have received many compliments from our employees, our major donors, and members of the public. We make quality television. You manage quality events. Together our teams showcased them both.”- James Pagliarini, President and CEO, Twin Cities Public Television
“I am so grateful to have had your steady and creative hands on the helm of the event for the last year. You are the pros! I really was having a great time and knew the event was going amazingly well, but I think I was in stunned disbelief half the time! Everyone had a really great time and some of them were surprised to find it so much fun. We really accomplished our main goal of establishing the museum as a top tier cultural organization!”- Kathy Wilson, Development Director, Science Museum of Minnesota
" Char and Cookie brought their vast experience, keen insight and deep set of relationahips to DISH and added value that extended far beyond the event. They are professional, proactive and fun to work with!"- Dawn Marie Nelmark, Second Harvest Heartland
“Char and Cookie - Thank you for the spectacular job on Fairview Legacy of Care Day at the Twins. The event met all our goals and exceeded our expectations. We also helped the Twins set a new standard for a corporate event. The team tells me they have never hosted a welcome event for a single group this large (4,000 people). Everybody I talked to reported that they had a wonderful time. Great work.”- Ted Davis, President, Davis Communications Management, Inc.
"Cookie's excellent leadership, planning and execution skills allowed us to have an extremely successful SPAM Museum Jam 2005. She was always a step ahead of us in the planning and was able to anticipate our needs before we knew we had needs! I appreciated Cookie's sense of humor and flexibility in working with a large corporation. Cookie's experience, creativity and professionalism made our event truly SPAMTASTIC!"“It was my pleasure to work with Char during the planning and implementation of our SPAM Museum Jam 2005. Char was organized, insightful, helpful, cheerful and too many other positive adjectives to note, during the entire process. Char was proactive in problem solving that when the day of the event arrived it was smooth sailing! We had a SPAMTASTIC event due to her skills and the skills of the whole team!”- Shawn Radford, SPAM Museum, Hormel Foods
