Alas, the online tickets for the St. Valentine’s Day Luncheon & Fashion Show is totally closed. Yes, you thought you could hold off until Monday to buy that last minute ticket, but organizers needed the weekend to get the seating arrangements locked down. And when you’re dealing with nearly 900 guests. . . well, the arrangements committee is going to be busy, busy this weekend.
BTW, if you did reserve your ticket(s), you need to send in the names of your guests to Michelle Northcutt at [email protected].
According to Michelle, “We MUST [she did the emphatic all caps] have your names for the auditorium seating assignments! [she also added the exclamation point]”
Folks, bear with the organizers. This St. V-day extravaganza ain’t gonna be the same old, same old.
