Earlier this month we said “see ya later” to Brooke. She’s worked with us part-time since March and was SUCH a good addition to the team!

She is absolutely always smiling at our events, and is truly unflappable which is a huge asset under pressure. She was willing to do just about anything and was excited to learn.

Although she went full-time at her other job, there’s a good chance you’ll still see her around at some of our events as we just couldn’t do without her presence on-site and we’re trying to convince her to work with us still occasionally.

Enjoy this super cute pic thanks to Al M., as well as two photos that I tried to get as we were deliriously cleaning up our last event and Brooke was up on the ladder blowing out a million hanging votives. 😂

Living In Liberty's inaugural Masquerade Ball on Saturday was a blast!

The event was dedicated to taking the mask off of s*x trafficking, and aimed to shed light on the dark realities of human trafficking while celebrating the strength of survivors.

A little about the event:
📍Just In Thyme gracously donated the venue space in Gibsonia
🧀The featured restaurants and caterers that provided food on site on site were Clean Eatz Cranberry, John Marshall Catering, and Wintergarden at PPG
🧁Sweet treats and appetizers from a variety of other local businesses rounded out the menu
🍷Drinks included a signature drink, wine ordered from Cam Warba, non-alcoholic canned cocktails from Better than Booze, coffee from Churn, and beer
🎭Attendees dressed in their best, and many had matching masks
💃Many people danced and enjoyed the music from DJ Pauly who donated his services
🎫The silent auction, raffle auction, and mask 50/50's gave plenty of opportunities to support the cause
🏡During the program, everyone got a chance to hear more about the Tiny Homes Project and the realities of trafficking in our region

We'll share more photos and videos soon but in the meantime enjoy this GIF courtesy of the Fireside Events photo booth! 📸

Friday’s Gala was overwhelmingly good and Light of Life Rescue Mission raised over $750,000!

💡 Be The Light 💡 was the theme and we are so grateful to support what Light of Life is doing for people in Pittsburgh. We’re grateful that this team considers us part of their team, and for all that they teach us. We’re grateful for what God is doing through the mission.

The event included the following pieces and more:
🩵 silent auction via online platform
🩵 music with a full band and vocalists
🩵 heads or tails game
🩵 live auction
🩵 bid from the heart (paddle raise)
🩵 sit-down dinner

It was a fantastic event!

A few things we did so far this week that as a result our clients didn’t have to do, in no particular order:

📌 finalize quantities and seating for a sit down meal, with incomplete attendee information
📌 negotiate venue contracts for 2025
📌 pickup print materials from the printer
📌 collate and organize bidder cards for live auction
📌 unpack then pack SUV full of event decor

Now that these things are off our clients’ to-do lists their time can be utilized increasing their attendee lists and growing their organization. What event-related work would you like off of your plate? 🍽️

We were thrilled to work with Auberle on their 20th Annual Voices Carry last night at the Westin. The event was Motown themed and there were a ton of great Pittsburgh musicians there. (Check out our stories to see video clips of most.)

Today:🍷 Sip, Savor, and Celebrate at the East Liberty Wine Festival 🍷

📣 Wine enthusiasts and community members are invited to raise their glasses at the East Liberty Wine Festival, happening on Saturday, September 21st, 2024, hosted by the East Liberty Quarter Chamber of Commerce. The festival will take place on Broad Street between Highland and Centre Street from 2PM to 6PM and promises to be a memorable day of fine wines, local vendors, food trucks, and live entertainment.

🥂 With five wineries, a distillery, a cidery, and a brewery on site, attendees will not leave thirsty. Ticket holders will have the opportunity to sample unique wine blends, purchase bottles, and learn from winemakers.

🎟️ Tickets for the East Liberty Wine Festival are now available for purchase at https://eastlibertywinefestival.eventbrite.com. General admission tickets are $30 if purchased ahead of time, which includes a souvenir glass, a wine tote, and wine tastings. Tickets are not required to enjoy the live music or food trucks, but they are required for the wine tastings.

🎸 Throughout the afternoon, live music will be featured on the stage from three different local bands.

P.S. We won’t be here since the client didn’t want on site management but Brooke and Mei-Ling worked hard on many pieces of this event.

Too busy to plan the company Christmas party? 🎄

Oftentimes holiday party planning falls to a person or a department with a full plate. Someone in HR or maybe an executive assistant, whose life would be so much easier if they could focus on the day to day and have someone else plan a party that is months away. If only someone else could book the caterer, find and decorate a venue, purchase and wrap the employee gifts, and create the invitations. Even just taking those few things off of the plate would be a huge help, and allow everyone to focus on their core strengths and responsibilities.

We’re looking for clients who need just a little assistance with their holiday party planning. We’re looking for bosses who want to support their team by providing some much-needed help with this year’s Christmas party.

(Yes we know it's only September, but time flies, right?!)

Interested in talking further? Send us a message or fill out the form on our website and we look forward to catching up with you!

Friday evening’s Soaring for Hope Gala was fantastic! Over $80,000 was raised for The Lighthouse Foundation, with over 200 guests in attendance. Attendees enjoyed a huge raffle auction, a silent auction, a new scratch-off game that was a big hit, “Lighthouse Lucky Puck” (like Plinko). Hors d’oeuvres, drinks, and dinner were rounded out with an inspiring message from a board member, an informative video, and a hint of exciting new programs to come from their executive director. It was the very last Soaring for Hope Gala! Next year for their 40th anniversary we’re planning a completely new event.

We’re honored to work with The Lighthouse who makes such a gigantic impact in our community, serving those in need. In the words of our emcee, “What would our Butler County be like if it wasn’t for The Lighthouse?”
