This event, hosted for the local women’s business community, will feature brunch, mimosas, raffles, a keynote speech, and a special table decorating competition. Attendees will have the opportunity to decorate their tables prior to the start of the event, where three winners will be selected by a panel of judges. We want to make sure you’re set up for success, so we’ve created a guide to everything you need to know for the day of the bruncheon.
