Event Solutions is a full service event planning and catering company and because we are an intimate group we believe in getting things done in the most effective way. I wear many hats, as does everyone at the company, and our main goal is to satisfy our customers. We do the errands that no one wants to do so that our client doesn't have to do them. This includes printing and mailing invitations, buying gift bag and raffle prizes, buying extra supplies the day of the event... basically anything that requires legwork. I have two such things on my plate. While everyone else was out today (the day before Thanksgiving) running into each other with their grocery store shopping carts, I was doing my favorite activity- shopping. It was even more exciting that I wasn't using my money and a little disheartening when I remembered I was buying items for myself. I was out buying raffle prizes for one of our parties. Roxy gave me advance notice, I collected the cash and then was on my way to Best Buy, Starbucks and other places that owned the goodies I needed. Danielle told me to go to Pavilions to buy all the gift cards I needed... they have so many gift cards its insane. You can get cards for anywhere from American Express to Baja Fresh. They have a huge display that bears hundreds of gift cards in different denominations. I found 2 of the 3 gift cards I needed on a table near the entrance and i thought I was home free and ready to checkout. I figured I would just have to go to another store to get the last one, but the checkout lady told me where to find the display on aisle ten. I ran to the aisle, in my heels trying to collect my last gift card and make it back to the checkout line ahead of the women with the two hundred Thanksgiving items in their basket. Luckily, I made it and was out of the store in twenty minutes. Event planning takes every type of skill you can imagine. We are problem solvers in a true sense of the word and I am sure our clients are Thankful. Happy Thanksgiving!
