Second day???




So this is supposed to be my second day in the year of the flower market. Well I guess trying to start a blog during the busiest week of the year was not a good idea..ambition got in the way.

Last week we were honored to be the event designers for the 2009 NJPAC Spotlight Gala. It was quite the undertaking with over 900 guests inside the main Prudential Hall instead of the annual large tent in the parking lot.
It was one of the most satisfying events to date that we have designed. The staff and helpers from the NJPAC could not be more accommodating and eager to make the event the success it truly was. They are all true professionals.
Below you will see some photographs of the pre production, such as installing the flooring that covered the entire seating area of Prudential Hall. This meant that guests were actually seating as much as six feet in the air above the normal house seats. You can see the scaffolding below right.
The left picture is of the cocktail tent before the carpet installation.
.

The entire set up took over eight days from start to finish. Below
you see the production crew prepping the lights at the rear of the stage.
This photo is Prudential Hall before the floor is installed and this is the after...

So dear reader, friends and family. i hope you get something form this second post. Tomorrow I will actually start posting seasonal flowers from the New York Flower Market as I have promised I would do. Please send me your feed back-good, bad and indifferent.

Well done Hon! It seems a bit daunting at first but once you get in the habit of writing it everyday, it will become addictive. I only post once a week so I congratulate your determination to blog everyday. Michele xxx
