Party Season Has Begun

For all of our clients and viewers in the Dallas/Fort Worth area, you are probably well aware of all the Debutante parties, Balls, and other events going on this time of the year. With the Zoo Ball a couple of weeks ago, there are a number of dates coming up that you need to be prepared for. Steeplechase will be the next Debutante Ball which will occur on October 31 this year. Exactly one week later is the Fort Worth Assembly Ball for the upcoming debutantes. On November 19th the Jewelry's Party will take place at the Fort Worth Club and finally the Jewel Charity Ball will be held on January 9, 2010 at the fabulous Omni Hotel in Fort Worth.

Tip of the Week: What is Black Tie?

When an occasion is defined as Black Tie, the men should wear a tuxedo and the women should wear a long gown or special short party dress. Black-Tie Optional and Semi-Formal allow the men to either wear a tuxedo or a dark suit and the women to wear party dresses or dressy suits. When an invitation requests Casual attire, refer to the invitation. The hostess should provide information regarding the theme time and location of the party, which let's you know what is appropriate for the occasion.
