- One week since my open house (I know I’m slow to post, right) and I’m still over the moon about my party. I’m so tickled that you came out in droves! Past brides, new friends, my business buddies. I’m so very humbled. We were wall to wall people all night. I’m speechless. I thought you guys were going to start parking on the lawn—a sign of a good party.
- Pre-event I received wonderful emails from lots of good folk who just couldn’t make it. I thought that’s ok, I’ll just drink and eat by myself in the corner. SIGH. But before I knew it, the office was stacked and happy! Eating, drinking, laughing. Great mood, good times. We almost had people hanging from the rafters. I thought for sure, we’d have 10 people come… but man, you came and stayed. SO great! Best time for me! I’m gushing!
- Thanks for those that signed my wonder woman poster. Tehe.
- What kept people there? My friend and colleague Nancy Cerny of CVC Catering group put together a fantastic menu. Each dish was unique and special. She’s not a dial-it-in-with-the-ol’-cheese plate kind of gal. She went so over the top. Everything was served on vintage china. So fabulous. I knew she was good but um… I was beyond impressed. Nancy worked my crowd and kept guests entertained and hydrated with her supreme selection of wines. Oh those peppers, loved the peppers. (Yum. Mommy likes wine too.) I’ll never through an non-catered party again. Seriously, CVC makes it too easy. It was awesome.
- And thanks to Gail at Dodge the Florist for making a beautiful e that smelled unbelievable. Today I walked into the office and it’s still like smelling heaven. I told Gail was that I was thinking ‘white’ and not l. How’s that for vague? But look how lovely.
- I got lovely emails regarding the food and flowers. I really trust these two vendors. These women are artist. Just turn them loose and they’ll create an event better than you could ever imagine. I’ve seen it all, obviously. I go to a lot of events. Even I was impressed. Thanks again. Can not say enough.
- Thanks too to all my BNI family who are great that out for me. Wonderful support system for me. I love you guys!
- Thanks to Emilie for the champaign and to Averyl, my newest gal pal who I recently picked up at the hamburger stand down the street, for the pug cards. I love them!
- But now back to me…
Maggie, 1, my baby girl, was there in her super sweet Asian-style peach and green outfit. She was a bit tired but work the crowd like a champ. She is the best baby. Don’t argue this point with me. Thanks Brian, love, I owe you some rock climbing!
- The crowds lingered past 8pm.
- Myself and two buds closed shop at 11:30pm. OMG! I will not mention names. But we were rockstars!
- Should I make this an annual party? Any thoughts or your impressions of the shin dig? Post your comments.
