This past month I was able to have my friends and family travel the world with me at my graduation celebration planned by Viola Marie Events. The event planners, Berdene Viola and Raquel Marie, captured my vision and created an over the top event for my guest to enjoy.
50 guest were invited to the celebration and were amazed at the travel themed decor. The centerpieces were outlined with pictures of my travels to Trinidad, Barbados, Paris, Toronto, and London over the past 4 years. There were also special features of places I have lived in of New York, Virginia, & Florida. The centerpieces outlined the representation of the grass of Wimbledon Tennis Center in London, England. The party favors represented the clay from the tennis courts of the French Open in Paris, France.
The menu included:
Appetizers-Sweet & Sour Meatballs, Eggrolls, Bruschetta, and Sweet Potato Fries
Dinner-Spanish Rice, Stew Chicken, Vegetable Medley, Curry Goat, Roti & Buss Upshot
Beverages-Tropical Fruit Punch, Mauby, and Limed Water
Desert-French Crepe, Fruit Platter, Banana Bread, European Wafer, and Cake Pops
All the guests received a stamped visa documenting their experience. Have a wedding, birthday or special event coming up? You can hire Viola Marie Events at violamarieevents@gmail.com. You will surely enjoy yourself!!!!
