The Real Hooker Saloon

Thursday, August 29, 2013







every year since he was a junior in high school, my friend drew van dyke has thrown a saloon party in the basement of his house. (yes he has a built in saloon in the basement of his house.) now almost 10 years later he still keeps them goin. just one of the many reasons why i love drew. this is my second year at the real hooker saloon and it is lots and lots of fun. i can't believe the planning and organization it takes to pull something like this off. it is not just a house party. it is a night full of dancing, games, pictures, food and preformances. drew blows me away with how well of an event planner he is. he is so organized. whenever i plan anything, i am running around with my head chopped off but not drew. he remains calm and collected. not only does he plan the event, he is the MC for the night! oh and a preformer. the guy can do it all. 

drew and i met my sophmore year of college but we became close when we both decided to go into public relations. he is one of my best friends and i admire him for his creativity, whit and humor. i have been lucky enough to know drew and benefit from some of the amazing parties he has planned. these parties include beyonce baby shower, the cool yule (christmas party), beyonce and jay z's anniversary and of course the saloon party. when i get married, drew is planning my wedding. i am tellin ya, this guy is a design genius.
