Hello
Musers, been away for a while and I apologise for the long silence. I am back
and promise to make up for my absence. How have you all been??? While I was
away, I was involved in a lot of exciting projects including the story behind
today's post.
So I got a call a few months back from a former boss of
mine, Temi D asking DUR to plan a birthday party for a director at her
company. I felt honoured and let me fast track to the first weekend of this
month. Temi wanted a four day event parked with fun activities beginning
with a suya crawl which was later cancelled because of the Ebola virus
situation in the country, so Day 1 off. This would be followed with a
quiet dinner on Day 2, with a garden party on the third day. Finally
lunch on the fourth day. So you can tell how excited I was to do what I love to do best... plan parties!!... I call it ‘’fun work’’
The party
was in honor of Nnenna, affectionately known as Nay Love (hence the title of
this post) who marked a major milestone birthday from September 5th to 7th. For
now I will tell you only what happened on the third day. It was an awesome
party held at a really elegant event centre in Victoria Island called The
Social Place. It is located at 33 Sinari Daranijo street and owned and operated
by Tolagbe Martins. The place has a very cute garden with pretty flowers
and greens where the main party was held. After grubs, we switched to the
hall in the premises called The Gallery where it was time to put on your
dancing shoes and show everyone your dancing skills. And dance we did!!! Wouldn’t
you rather get maximum satisfaction when you book a venue for your event?
The Social Place is one to count on. Go check it out...
It was a
cityscape themed party to reflect the different international locales Nay
Love has lived in. California, New York, London all came together to give
guests the different feel of each location. The décor and settings were done
very simply and yet still very catchy.
The
hot food and finger foods were awesome. Drinks, cocktails and chewables
were in abundance. The most important thing was that the client loved it
because it was exactly what she wanted.... happy customer, happy bank. Haha!
Family and
friends came out in their numbers to celebrate with their own and everyone was
happy to see each other. It was a blast!
DJ Bisola
kept the vibe going and everyone danced to the rhythm of the night. What
interested me most was how simply dressed most of the guests were, even the
celebrant looked fabulous in her white Nay Love customised top on denim. Unlike
our parties in this part of the world where we must wear all the shiny blings
...lol, less is more my people... avoid over dressing, most of the time.
In a nut
shell, it was a night of fun and everyone went home happy. Enjoy the
visuals of the night after the cut.
