It’s time to finally wear that gorgeous dress — the one you’ve been saving for a special occasion. Bring your gloves, hats, and favorite accessories and step into a beautiful evening designed to let you connect and mingle without the presence of small talk or social anxiety.
Whether you come with friends or come solo, you’ll leave the night knowing you left a lasting impact on those you met and appreciate the meaningful moments you were able to share.
Here’s How the Evening Works:
Before the Gala, you grab a gift that has meaning to you. When you arrive, you’ll draw a name from the Christmas Tree. During the event, mingle with other attendees until you find the person whose name you pulled. Present them with the gift you brought, and share why it’s meaningful to you. It’s a natural and unique way to break the ice and spark conversation. No awkward or typical “what do you do for a living?” questions required.
Throughout the night, we’ll have fun prompts and surprises to keep interactions flowing, letting everyone enjoy the experience and meet new people in a relaxed, beautiful setting and spread holiday cheer.
The location for this event is a beautiful, historic spot in downtown Memphis — somewhere with timeless elegance and a touch of grand style. The address will be shared 72 hours before the event, adding to the excitement and anticipation of the evening.
Prepare for a setting that makes your evening feel truly special, perfectly matching the glamour of your dress and the elegance of the night!
