Midsummer Nights Dream

After the West Fest weekend, I attended a Thursday night event after work at the Warwick Hotel.  They were throwing a Midsummer themed party to introduce guests to their newest venue.  It was much larger than the other rooms and could host a variety of parties.  I love checking out new spaces.  We are always trying to think of new ways to entertain our guests and employees at the Firm, so this was very helpful to me.  It turned out to be a very beautiful day as well.  People were in a good mood because of the weather, and the party drew in a good crowd.  They also had a live dj and after a couple of cocktails, people started to hit the dance floor.  I love unexpected surprises like this!

Allerton Hotel

The following Thursday I went out for an event at the Allerton Hotel on Michigan Avenue.  It was nice seeing my friends for a bit.  They were introducing other hotels in the company throughout the country and were giving away raffles for a free stay.  Unfortunately I did not win but it was a fun time anyways.  The grand prize was a 5 night stay in Paris!  Oh well.  Better luck next time…

I stayed in that upcoming weekend.  I went over my mom’s on Saturday to drop off the postcards I got for her on my trip.  Luckily my uncle was over too and we all had dinner.  It was nice sharing my experiences with them.  My mom loved the gifts.
