Almost Time To Gobble Gobble

Thanksgiving is a time to gather with family and friends to give thanks for all that we are blessed with. It's a time for cooking up delicious dishes and stirring up festive drinks. To set up a nice table scape for your dinner you can have a fresh flower center piece arranged with all the fall colors or a traditional cornucopia filled with shelled nuts, figs, pears, and clementines as your main focal point then you can tie in some pine cones, dried corn husks, small pumpkins, and votive candles around the center piece to give it that warm touch. I love the warm cozy feeling that this holiday brings and enjoy seeing people celebrate this time of year. I have not had the pleasure to assist an event focused on the Thanksgiving holiday yet, but hope to in the future. Helping with the Macy's Thanksgiving parade would be a dream! Hey.... you never know? So what are you plans for Thanksgiving? Have a great one!

St Paul's/Bella Vista School Oktoberfest Event 2010

So this October I decided on volunteering to be the chairperson for my sons preschool division and organize a game booth for the schools Oktoberfest Event. The kids seem to love it and kept coming back to play and collect the cute prizes. The festival was filled with carnival games, jumpy houses, live entertainment for the kids, German food, a beer garden, music and craft vendors. Even though the weather turned out to be a cloudy rainy day that didn't stop anyone from having a good time. I love the fall season and was excited to experience this type of event and help out. It was fun to see how it all came together and I look forward to helping with different types of festivals in the future. Happy Fall Season!

The Half Way Mark

So.... I am excited to be half way through my course and on my way to become an Internationally Certified Event Planner. I have enjoyed what I learned so far and thrilled to see what the other half of the program will teach and prepare me for. My tutor seems to be proud of my work as she has been giving me high grade markings and great feedback on my past assignments. Once I am finished with the course
(which I am shooting for the end of the year) my goal is to get a job with a corporate company as their event planner while having Savvy Chic Events as my personal side business to plan private functions for clients. As I approach the end of the program I will post a preview of my services to come and hope to have a my professional website up and running by the new year 2011. In the mean time if you have any questions or need assistance on an upcoming event please contact me. Thank you for taking the time to follow my journey!
