December 18, 2010 Foxchase Manor North

On Saturday, December 18. 2010 around 200 guests gathered into our North Ballrooms to celebrate a corporate holiday function. Guests were welcomed into the entry hallway for some cheese and fruit platters as well as some passed snacks including pigs in a blanket, and meat stuffed puff pastries. A large bar and tall cocktail tables decorated in red and gold linens surrounded the hall.

Inside the grandballroom were tables with white hydrangeas and red rose centerpieces. Dark red linen with gold charges were at every place setting. The back of the room was decorated with tall, red drapings and a large Christmas tree decorated in white lights and ornaments. The fireplace was decorated with white lights and stockings.

Santa made a surprise visit and read Twas the Night Before Christmas to the kids and handed out gifts. Kids could get their photo with Santa and they were printed and framed on the spot for the families to take home.

Guests enjoyed a buffet dinner of green bean amandine, mashed potatoes, spiral spiced ham, sweet potato and praline casserole, herbed stuffing, and oven roasted turkey with homestyle gravy. For dessert guests enjoyed cake, cookies and an assortment of pies. A station with coffee and hot chocolate was setup on the side.

Thanks to R&R Catering for the food, and Classic Creations Photography for taking photos of the kids and Santa. Guests enjoyed the remainder of the evening by playing casino games like roulette and blackjack while others danced the night away!

Happy Holidays!
