| | Clarification request(s) and responseDeborah Lockett: 12:51pm Nov 10, 2007: is this by any chance referring to a massage service, Dennis? I am mystified.
Dennis Wright: 2:44pm Nov 10, 2007: specialist cake maker - sorry to disappoint!
Lia Barros: 3:12pm Nov 10, 2007: This is not funny, I think, Dennis. For sure we spent time trying to help and find a good answer. Please next time give us the right context. For sure you will have better choices.
Dennis Wright: 5:22pm Nov 10, 2007: Sorry if you thought the context was inadequate - honestly it would not have made a lot of difference as the phrase was used in a very generic way - and I got the answer I wanted - thank you everyone.
Lia Barros: 7:21pm Nov 10, 2007: ok.

| | we do all what we can and a little bit more to get the "happy end". | Explanation:
I would translate it just taking care on the "meanings" not the words because what is important in this context (if I understood it correctly) is: they have a goal and will do all to get it.
It's another idea. ;)

Another way to go would be:
we have included everything
we have left no stones unturned
we have ensured that everything which might be needed is present
we have considered everything (for a full experience)
We have (addressed/engaged) all of the senses (and then some) in order to ensure a happy ending
