A Night Out…with LoCoFlo

This has been a challenging, exciting, BUSY year. To celebrate the end of a great year, LoCoFlo teamed up with Jordan Faye Block to host an End of the Season cocktail party at her new gallery/event space in Federal Hill called BE.  I was a little nervous, since we pulled this party together at the last minute-but what a great time we had!

One the things I love about this “job” is all the great people I get to meet and work with. I was so excited that some of this year’s brides came! Not only did they come out, they brought their husbands, moms and friends too! We also had brides who booked with us for next year and brides to be who just wanted to learn more.

I have been so fortunate over the last year to find like minded partners to work with. Many of those partners came out to celebrate with us including Lauren Wenchel of Charm City Bride, Lori Hill of Lori Hill Event Productions, Martha Thomas of Baltimore Magazine, Mike and Kate Primm from the Green School Michael Harris and his fabulous truffles, Rachel Costello and Christine Cochrum of Apothecary Wellness Spa and our hostess, Jordan Faye Block.

What would a LoCoFlo party be without flowers? Event though it was 3 weeks past the hard frost here in Baltimore, one of our growers, Pam Pahl, had a sunny, protected warm patch that was still full of snapdragons. Even at the end of the season, these snaps were just beautiful.

It was great that my husband and  friends were able to come celebrate  with me as well. They all helped in various ways this year: volunteering at Flowermart, building the Coolbot, delivering flowers, making LoCoFlo t-shirts and on and on! Thank you! Of course, Bart and Marina were sorely missed-but I guess vacation in California is pretty fun too!

Don’t feel bad if you missed the party…we’re hoping to make it an annual event …so we’ll see you next year!
