Airspace Holiday Party

 

This was the first outing that I would plan in this position. Our location is in the Bay Area, most of my team, and board members are close to San Francisco. 

I started this position in October and was asked to plan a holiday outing for December for our team, board members and investors. There was one small issue I was asked to start planning this event in November. We are in the Bay area where all the good venues are well booked into Jan for Holiday events. I found a great venue with scarce selections. I was excited.

 The Foreign Cinema a restaurant in the Mission. It used to be a foreign film theatre. It had since closed and converted into this beautiful space and restaurant, where they still feature classic and foreign films. 

The Foreign Cinema has many private dining and event spaces. we were set in the private room: with an expected party of 60.

The event was not a full dinner. It was a happy hour with  passed hors d'oeuvres.

I ordered some very beautiful arrangements from my favorite local florist, Farm Girl Flowers.  We ordered a cake that was a drone, and scheduled a photographer. 

The arrangements I ordered were mini Christmas trees for the bar area, garland, and floral center pieces
