Celebrations Made Simple Featured
in Prime Home Magazine for
20th Anniversary Party.

As you walk down the red carpet in your flowing Dolce&Gabbana gown, you blink from the bright flash of the paparazzi. You hear the proclamations of herald trumpeters announcing your arrival. And the Japanese geisha greeters are ever-so polite as they escort you to your table. No, this isn't a day in the life of a Hollywood celebrity. It's a 20th Anniversary Party for a local company.
The event was a truly festive occasion, as almost 200 employees and guests gathered at the National Museum of Women in the Arts in Washington. A beautiful setting was created in gold trim paprika shimmer, highlighted by Rosie Lee Tompkins's "Something Pertaining to God" art exhibit and Heather and Tony Podesta's "Modern Love."

Guests were treated as royalty and enjoyed the electrical entertainment of world-renown harmonicist Frédérick Yonnet, who has performed with the likes of Stevie Wonder, as well as the heart-beating experience of watching a troupe of African dancers and drummers.

The five-course dinner party included details like the trumpeters, geisha greeters, valet parking and hired "paparazzi." Photography was also provided by Freed Photography in Bethesda, Md.

The mouth-watering dishes were prepared by Well Done Catering, featuring Thai Vegetables Crepe Bundles with Sake Dipping Sauce; Vegetable Dumplings in Lemon Broth; Cucumber Sorbet with Cucumber Salsa; Grilled Black Angus Tournedos with Morels; and for desert, Tiramisu Parfaits and freshly brewed imported Mocha Java coffees.
