Suzanne, with all due respect, your definitions may only be relevant in your particular marketing area. Your definition of personal chef:

may be accurate for your particular locale, but not elsewhere. Many personal chefs have one major client. But, private or personal, either should be well equipped to handle dinner for 25 on a day's notice.
A dear friend, a personal chef, by your definition, had a situation arise virtually identical to the one described. She had to call in a few friends to assist, me included, and the dinner party went off without a hitch. Now, she owes me one.
