“My experience was exceptional! From the time I answered, I love that there was an escort to guide you along the red carpeted event. The check in process was efficient & flawless. The dinner was cooked to perfection, seasoned and sized very appropriately. I arrived late and I loved that they packaged it well & it was labeled with my name. The cocktails were on point! Not one drink I ordered was too iced or water down. The servers were well staffed and came back with those items quick so you could actually enjoy them doing the show. Omg! The show. From the flawless sculptured bodies. Unmatched femininity and finishes.…”

Luckily we were allowed by the venue staff to transfer (since there were a lot of vacant tables). After show- Performers…”
