September Soiree :: Sip, Shop, and Savor event details are as follows…

Are you a mom? Yes? Then we would love to have you join us for all of the fun! We have heard so many moms say things like, “my friends are busy that night” OR “I might not know any one there.” Please listen when we say that we would LOVE to have you! This is the night to step outside of the box, grab a glass of champagne from our friends at ALG Style, introduce yourself and make some new mama friends. Need someone to hold your hand?! Tell us at check in. Seriously – introduce yourself to our team and we will make sure to give you a high five or a hug and introduce you to at least a few new fun people!

Join us Saturday, September 6th from 7:00 pm to 10:00 pm for a night of sipping beverages both alcoholic and non-alcoholic, shopping and savoring (yummy flavors AND some adult time). It is our hope that the night will be a treat from start to finish. Note :: this is not a sit down dinner, instead envision yourself at a cocktail party created just with you in mind!

This lovely soiree and cocktail party will be hosted  at the Beauregard-Keyes House in the French Quarter. Yes, it is a fact, parking is hard in the French Quarter. We do recommend that you carpool with friends, take a cab, or even have your husband drop you off. We ask that everyone drinks responsibly and makes arrangements for safe transportation. You deserve a night out but we want everyone to be safe!

Tickets are $35 and include all of the fun (that’s right, unless you shop – which we hope you will – the ticket price includes access to $55+ in swag, unlimited food, drink and sweets) BUT if you want something extra special check out our VIP tickets. No tickets will be sold out the door so make sure you purchase your ticket now HERE.

You might be asking yourself about what you should bring (if so, we love that, like us, you’re a planner). Just bring yourself and some money for shopping (but please note all of the food, drinks and fun is included in your ticket price).
