lunch for my closest 250 gal pals


recently i co-chaired a charity luncheon.  we decided to work with the theme of love...red, red, red.  we aimed to create a relaxed, informal yet fun atmosphere in which guests could catch up with one another - as it is usually at the same time each year - whilst still managing to raise funds.

the idea was to keep things simple - no fashion shows, no make over demonstrations - just a good lunch, a few glasses of champagne and the laughs which were supplied by special guest rachel berger, stand up comedian, broadcaster, novelist, columnist, agitator and television entertainer.














program of the day...

full catered lunch donated by participants

the charity takes place in a private home.
we exceed expectations and were thrilled!
