So... back in Christmas my team of party planning girls through a Moonlight and Mistletoe dance party for Charity. Well... mostly it was for fun but we asked guests to donate money for Sub for Santa. The party turned out to be a hit and we had hundreds of people attend we also raised close to $700. Because that party was so successful we decided to through another one for Valentines Day. After we through Moonlight and Mistletoe we had so many compliments about how fun it was. Multiple people told us that we needed to through another one. Well of course we were flattered by the good reviews and thought why the heck not! Valentines Day seemed like the perfect opportunity  and we named it the Valentines Soiree. We decided to make it a formal dance again and hopefully raise some money for charity. Katie, Ali, Tmera and I got together an put our event planning skills to the test again. 


There is a lot that goes into planning a party especially when you are expecting hundreds of people to attend. We planned this dance in a couple of weeks and of course we were scared it wasn't going to come together! However, we had a lot of amazing people that helped make this party happen. The DJ again offered to play for free because he knew the proceeds were going to charity, our friend Westin built an amazing photo booth and we got a great discount on the venue. The party turned out to be another hit and not only that, the girls and I always have so much fun putting on an event. We had fondue, games and a dating auction that raised more than $200. Now we just have to decide what party we are going to plan next!
