Our task was to design a 2 hour reception for New York’s literary and media elite in honor of a Graduate School opening.

Held in the students press room of the school, we displayed lots of incredibly delicious food in front of the monitors. 15 gracious and wonderful waiters brought around wonderful hors d’oeuvres which the guests ate and ate. We poured from a premium bar with a selection of wines to match the hors d’oeuvres as well as the finest in liquor.

Guests had a marvelous time as well as our staff.
