Today's the Day!

After lots of little meetings, from Tuesday at Nuno's to last night's whispers during class, today has arrived and it's GO TIME!

The plan is to meet at Nuno's at 2pm to prepare the space. We will be setting up the reception area, projector, moving some furniture, testing the sound and making sure Nuno has all the items he needs.

Then, we'll take a short break to freshen up and change clothes for the event. The idea is to wear black with some bright accessories. We want people to identify us quickly, hence the opposite color of our event's colors. Besides, no one wanted to wear matching shirts!

We have bags to sell and an awesome publication for the attendees to keep to read about our journey, and more importantly, and see the menu for the evening.

We are still receiving messages from people wanting to come and people asking to be on the mailing list. I even have a few asking about future dates.

This has been an excellent learning experience. We're already kicking ourselves about the cost of certain things, so we'll know for next time how to set the budget more appropriately. This has probably been one of the most educating experiences for us - business, marketing, retail, design and PR are all part of this.

Here's looking forward to tonight!!!
