A great part I attended was for a quieter couple who had a joint party. The number of guests was 40 so the party had good size. The way it was set up allowed them to relax and be themselves.
They had other graduation party ideas in mind but realised they did not believe they could carry them off.
They booked an expensive hotel which was built in the 1850s and just was totally relaxing and filled with atmosphere. The service was very efficient but discrete.
The party was based in 2 beautiful rooms. They had just the right amount of decorations.
They had a Frank Sinatra act who was very friendly, an excellent performer and he joined in the party. He sang requests, talked to everyone and did three 45 minute sessions.
The buffet food was simple but excellently done.
Everyone was told they were just to relax, mix as much as they wanted, dance if they wanted, and drink what they wanted.
We all were very friendly and felt very much part of the family.
The singer arranged the speeches and hosted the cake cutting. He also had a few jokes about the couple.
Thinking back, they knew the people were friendly, fun and would mix. In the end that made it a great night.
