As in most ventures or adventure, we don't really understand the magnitude of what we are doing until we are in it. This is the experience I just had putting on a show and event called Igloo this past Sat Nov. 14th. Overall the event was a great success. The Marriott ballroom provided a cozy yet grand atmosphere, the designers offered great wears, the fashion show actually worked (I have never organized a fashion show so was nervous), the models looked amazing and the music, food and drink was a nice added touch. People came to shop!
But - wow - what a huge amount of work! What amazed me was the incredible help and support we received from friends and family. Marcy Ross, myself, Denise Phillips, Tanya Kirkland and Regine Brucks did the majority of the in depth organization, while Ila from the Hive, Katie and Tammy volunteered hair and makeup. All the models volunteered as did the door folk. It gives me a great pause of appreciation to acknowledge all this fantastic, generous energy coming together to create this event.
