You were wonderful! Everyone is raving about the ball! I have only had positive feedback. You really played such a big part in the making a great night. Your ‘we’re here to party!!’ character really got the audience pumped. Thank you also for the extra energy you put in to working the room, selling the auction items and setting the mood.
