Hi guys! I’m Allison and I blog over at The Sunday Flog. Over the past few months I – along with two other girls Cassie and Michael – have been hard at work with Meghann trying to plan an awesome cocktail party for HLS. We finally have all of the details sorted out and we are so excited to share them with you!
The party will take place at Philadelphia’s Reading Terminal Market – a fabulous indoor farmers market filled with tons of amazing vendors and local shops. The market transforms itself from a bustling urban space to an elegant venue for cocktails parties and wedding receptions, and we thought it would be perfect for our event! We will have a three hour party from 7-10pm with heavy hors d’oeuvres and a signature cocktail made possible by Drink Chia, as well as a beer and wine bar. There will be stationary and passed appetizers, with an emphasis on local foods that incorporate all of the things Philly is known for, such as cheese steaks and soft pretzels. We even made sure to cater to our vegetarian and vegan guests – there will be plenty of options for everyone! But that’s not all…we still have a few surprises up our sleeves that you will just have to wait to find out about!
In terms of attire, feel free to come dressed in whatever you are comfortable with. Some people may choose cocktail dresses and others nice pants and a top. We just want everyone to have a great time!
We are now less than two weeks away from the event and hopefully you are all getting as excited as we are! Safe travels to the City of Brotherly Love!
