February 12th and 13th "Lady in Red"
2009 Lady in Red Dance

Make sure to spend a little extra time this weekend with your sweetheart by bringing them to the hottest dance of the year. Take that mini 2 day vacation and spend both nights of bliss in Richmond. Who would have thought that this event would become one of the most popular weekends for our group?

It has been a long time but with the overwhelming number of couples coming Friday night we decided to bring back out the Breakfast Club. Saturday morning we will have coffee and snacks upstairs on the 7th floor between 9am and noon. This is a great way to recap the night and meet some other couples for future use : )

As always, for all of our larger events we will have a complimentary photo shoot for the couples that get there early. Also, we have a couple of vendors that will be setting up shop across from the Ballroom so if you forgot to get something for the event, you can grab it here!

Saturday Night we will have our Annual Lady in Red Dance. This has been a huge hit throughout the years. So, we will continue our tradition followed by out lingerie party upstairs so the girls can sport that new outfit you were supposed to buy them.

Last Months "New Years Dance"
2009 New Years

Once again we pulled it off. The best New Years Eve party in Virginia! Over 135 couples came out to celebrate the big event. Everyone enjoyed the photos to capture the moment of what a great year we have had despite the economy. It was time to pull together as we had not had a hotel party since Halloween. The pre-mature balloon drop for the contest caught everyone off guard as it was designed to do. Since everybody was dressed up, we had to do a contest that was less hazardous. We got lots of feedback on how appropriate it was. Looking forward, start thinking about NYE this year as it falls on a Friday night. It should be even bigger!


Gathering Update
2010 January "Gathering"

Well the Storm did not stop us for our first Gathering of the year. Yea, it snowed but over 25 couple weathered the storm to make it out for this event. The bar was great in dealing with the limited staff. DJ Richie Rich was on hand to make us all forget about the snow. He warmed thing up with several great contests and kept everybody going till almost closing time. The next event there will be announced shortly.
