Dallas, TX
For the third consecutive year, Significant Events was honored to work with the Dallas Hearing Foundation to produce the Sounds of the Season gala. A cello ensemble played during cocktail hour as guests enjoyed flavorful passed hors d’ourves and cocktails and got the chance to bid on over 100 Silent Auction items via our new electronic bidding system. As the main program began, guests entered the sparkling ballroom with tables bedecked in silver and white linens with lush purple and blue floral centerpieces. Each table was named after a Dallas Hearing Foundation recipient and contained a picture of the corresponding recipient and his/her story of living with hearing loss. Guests enjoyed a delicious three course meal from the hotel’s noted chef. Our emcee for the evening, 106.1 KISS FM’s own Kellie Rasberry kicked off the evening’s entertainment which included a beautiful Nutcracker ballet performance from the Texas Ballet Theater. The heart of the evening was the presentation from several children and parents living with hearing loss who showed us how their lives had been substantially improved through the work of the Dallas Hearing Foundation. As dinner concluded, guests enjoyed a live auction, dancing, a wine pull, and photo favors from our photo station. Looking forward to making the event even better in 2012!
