Wine That You Won't Whine About...

Hopefully everyone is enjoying this wonderful Valentine's Monday! Why not surprise your significant other with a romantic date that's NOT on Valentines Day and enjoy an evening at Cab & Cab on April 16...? Just sayin'....


Valentine's Monday or not, the updates are in for your reading pleasure! Here is what we have been working on:

Anticipation/Marketing & Sponsorships

Kara went on Friday and handed out information (sponsorship packets and flyers) with Ms. Bunn about Cab & Cab to the attendees of the VisitOrlando Hot Topic session.  We handed out approx. 30 flyers and some businesses grabbed packets too!  There was a really good response and everyone seemed really excited! 

The Anticipation/Marketing team is so eager to get the rack cards into their hands! The proof was beautiful! They are excited!! 
Again, to contact the Anticipation/Marketing team, email them rosencabcab11@gmail.com  
or the Sponsorship team can be reached at cabcab2011@hotmail.com.

Arrival/Amenities

The Arrival team is getting the registration page up and running and still working on securing signage for Cab & Cab. Everyone is working hard and looking forward to a great event!

Appetite

Appetite team members are thinking about adding dishes with lamb in them, pesto pastas, strawberry, feta cheese and almond salad... foods that combine all ingredients that are in season. They want a fresh and light menu that will compliment the wine paired with it.  Because of the warmer weather, they don't want heavy foods that will make our guests feel too full and uncomfortable--instead, we are going for a classic menu with a twist that will surely impress the pallets of all the wonderful attendees.

Atmosphere

Atmosphere has been working on putting together the theme-ing of the courtyard.  We are looking into sheer tenting to keep some shade during the heat of the day, as well as deep red linens with black lace overlays for the tables.  There is just a lot of ideas flowing right now, and the team is pricing things out and coming up with all of the possibilities!

Activities

It has been decided that the entertainment will consist of three different acts as well as walking entertainment. The walking entertainment will be things such as magicians, frozen statues, etc. They will entertain the guests during their eating and drinking breaks. The three acts will consist of two "old world" more classic performances such as Can Can and Cabaret. The third act will be more "new world" and contemporary such as Chicago or Moulin Rouge. They've been busy finalizing what types of acts they want for each section of Cab and Cab and have been contacting local DMCs and Entertainment Companies. They finalized the Production Schedule as well as the RFP. Now we are just waiting to hear back from the companies we have contacted to see what they have to offer!
