Dante Alighieri Women's Auxiliary 4.17.10

Here's a program I made for their Spring Luncheon hosted at Casino in The Park in Jersey City. It was great to be able to be a part and join such a great group of dedicated women.

The theme was a New Beginning...this is their 101st year.
The cover read: "Every new beginning comes from some other beginning's end"

The back of the progema read: Our deepest fear is not that we are inadequate. Our deepest fear is that we are powerful beyond measure.We ask ourselves, “who am I to be brilliant, gorgeous, talented, fabulous?” Actually…who are you not to be?

Can't wait for next year's luncheon already!

Christina + Jason 3.21.10

I must admit, I've been a very, very bad blogger. There is so much going on at our FYEP headquearters but I promise I'll try to visit here at least once a week. There are some events and work still to post and as soon as I get my hands on some photos I'll be posting for you all.

Now on the good stuff...
Here's the link to Christina's and Jason's wedding photos about a month ago at The Mill in Springlake Heights. I love this venue, especially when the couples ceremony is outdoors in the gazebo by the lake. The lake is so calm and breathtaking and the lakeside ceremony is definitely one to remember.

Congrats to Christina and Jason!! We enjoyed working with you and creating your Sweet Candy Bar!!
