Truly an Enchanted Evening

October 24, 2011

The Sebastian Ferrero Foundation held it’s 2011 Noche de Gala, an annual fundraising event that’s like no other in our area.  We were honored to be able to sponsor the event as the official photographers and to support the mission of the Foundation.  A check was presented for 1.5 million dollars for the continued effort to build a state-of-the-art children’s hospital in Gainesville, Florida.  Guests can view and purchase their red carpet photos now on nochedegala.org.  All proceeds go to benefit the Foundation.  We would also like to thank the contributing photographers who came together in support of this event.  It was an amazing night!

It was a lot of fun getting dressed up for this black tie event!  I bought my dress at Solutions Bridal in Orlando, Fl.  The fabulous belt, earrings and hair accessories came from Solutions Bridal in Gainesville, Fl.  A special thanks to Marissa, Laura and Cherish for helping me pull this all together!  My great friends CJ and Jeffery, owners at Salon 5402 did my nails and hair.  You guys are amazing!  Trish Allen with Image Insight gave me my first makeover ever! I loved my make up Trish! We’d also like to thank John Mitchell of John Isaac’s Clothing for outfitting Paul.  We feel so fortunate to have these great friends who’d help us get ready for such a special night!

The night wouldn’t have been complete without a hug from Keith Watson.  He and his amazing staff did an incredible job… words can’t even describe!  Our dear friends Giovanni Lugo of Love Wedd and Danny Johnson joined us as our special guests.  We’d also like to thanks our great friends at Frankel Media Group for asking us to be a part of this event.  Ryan, Linda, Channing and Summer from FMG and Leslie from SFF… it has truly been a pleasure to work with each of you!  We’re looking forward to next year!
