One-of-its-kind EVENTful moment

It is the first of its kind. EVENTful Moments is a one-stop showcase that is everything, and more than anyone planning a bar/bat mitzvah, wedding, or a party in Orlando could ask for. This isn't a mega-convention with dozens of vendors. "We've done the work for you and narrowed the field to a select few caterers, DJs, florists, photographers and videographers, invitation specialists, and event planners," said event co-chairwoman Joy Bochner. Twenty-six of Central Florida's finest event vendors will display their specialties and offer tastings at EVENTful Moments, held at Congregation Ohev Shalom on Sunday, Jan. 12, from 2-5 p.m.

"We are excited to partake in this event. What a great idea to bring the different vendors under one roof so anyone planning an event can get to know each of us personally," said Matt Zohler, of Zohler-Sobel Entertainment.

Guests will have the opportunity to bid on significant vendor discounts in the silent auction. Raffle tickets will also be sold to win great prizes. The Collection of Winter Park will be hosting a fashion show, including bat mitzvah and party dresses, as well as select bridal fashions. Designer Daniel Thomas will be present to discuss the dresses with interested guests.

It promises to be a fun, inexpensive afternoon. Even those who aren't currently planning an event, this is a great venue to meet the best in Central Florida.

Admission is $5 per person, and is open to the community.   For more information, please call Joy Bochner at 407.491.1638, or e-mail her at joyousb3@gmail.com.
