Happy Tuesday everyone!! This last weekend was very busy and full of fun! I attended the Governor's Ball this past Saturday and had the time of my life! I met many different influential people that are big people throughout the city. I got to wear a beautiful gold dress, got my nails done, new shoes, 5 course meal, dancing, drinks, must I go on??!! The night was so fun, and it was even better because we worked our butts off to make it look nice and we got to enjoy it for once! Everyone loved the decor, the centerpieces were amazing and were there for people to take home...which everyone did! I really did feel like Cinderella, and then next morning I really felt the opposite! AHH!! This week we only have one wedding so it is a little slow around the shop, but I actually like it like this since the last month has been non-stop! We are almost there everyone! Congrats!!

Culinary Fest
I almost forgot to tell you all how great networking is!! Table Tops helped on Friday night at the Culinary Fest doing centerpieces and give away roses, and I was there for the drop off. Since I have only been to the Culinary Fest once last year I was still unsure about what it has or where to get tickets or prices, etc. As I was dropping off our work I met with one of the guys that was in charge there and he gave me his business card. When I attended on Sunday I called him and he let me and my friend in for free and right into the Absolute tent! I felt like a super star with that hook up, going right to the front of lines and everything. It really has a lot to do about who you know, and I met this guy that not only helped me and my friend out, but someone that was willing to talk about any future plans and questions I may have in the business. Get out there and make conversation with these people, you never know what they can do for you!!!
P.S. The Culinary Fest was sooo fun!!

Gov Ball!!
This Saturday is Governor's Ball at the Arizona Grand where I also work part time. My internship, Table Tops, is doing the decor for the event and I am also going as a guest! I am so excited because I get to set up and create the event as well as attend it. I have not yet found my long fancy dress yet but I have been looking!! I love being able to get all dressed up and this time it is for a very eligant ball.
I am also going to the Arizona Grand tomorrow (Tuesday) for a photo shot that we are going to have displayed in the Arizona Bridal Magazine. We are going to set up a ceremony setting right in front of the water fountain when you enter the resort. I have only done two events at this resort which I like since I work there also. I get to see these fabulous events at a place that I have worked at for the past 2 years. It's a totally different side of the Tourism/Hospitality side.
I hope everyone is getting ready for graduation, let me know if you want pretty floral centerpieces for your grad parties!! Chow!

New Day-New Events
Last week Sara came to visit the shop and it was a very fun and laidback visit. She got to meet one of my bosses and see where I work. I cannot believe we are this far and almost done! I also just bought my cap and gown which really makes it feel real!!
Work has been very busy and exciting, lots of weddings and new designs for the events. In a few weeks we are doing a bar mitzah which looks like it is going to be so cool! I am a bad jew and never had a bat mitzah, but my brothers and all my cousins did have them and they were so fun! So besides doing floral decor and centerpieces we are doing a sports theme for this bar mitzah and doing the coolest pieces for it. It is so great for me because I am able to work with different types of designs for big events that are not just flowers. Lahiem!! ("to life" in hebrew)
Other than that, I am still making lots of connections and trying to network to get the for sure sign that I have a job after graduation. I am really trying to go oversea that I would be willing to commit to for a year. I never studies abroad so I feel like this would be a great opportunity for me at this time. Wish me luck!
Hope everyone is well! Chow!
