This past August I had a great couple that had their wedding reception at the Four Seasons Seattle.  They asked that their guests to come enjoy a great evening of food, drinks and dancing but not bring any gifts.  They instead asked their guests to donate/support two of their favorite charities.  This was an amazing gift that would impact so many and brought great joy to my clients.  The Bride also wanted to donate her wedding dress.  The organization that it will help is Get Hitched Give Hope.

 

Many who know me well know that I am not very “technical”.  So when I shared that I wanted Event Success to have a blog, facebook and twitter earlier this year, my husband raised his eyebrow and smiled.  Our start has been slow and steady  and with the help of Miss Holly and Miss Katy all up and running- thank you.

Now that I have this wonderful forum of sharing information, the question is what is worth of your time and interesting to talk about?  There are so many things to share!

Fortunately,  a wonderful opportunity presented itself where I could help someone  in need by sharing information.  I am very excited for the next 3 weeks where I will have wonderful information and something really exciting for my readers.  Stay tuned!

 

They are available in black, silver & gold.You have that perfect summer dress, your favorite high heel strappy sandals and you are off to the party.  Most women know that late at night when you have been on your feet socializing or dancing for hours your shoes have got to come off!  This new Seattle based company Fabbys.com  has come to our rescue.  These ballet flats are as affordable as flip flops but only take a fraction of the space in your purse.  Each pair rolls up to the size of your cell phone and includes a draw string tote to carry your heels.  So go ahead fashionistas, wear the sexy high heels just don’t forget your Fabbys.
