The event was for the Trailblazer's, which is part of the Cattle Baron's Ball. For us Californian's, we're probably clueless as to what that is, but for Texan's it's a BIG DEAL. Cattle Baron's Ball is a wonderful charity that donates a substantial amount of time and money to the American Cancer Society. This year alone, they have raised over $3.5 million!
As part of thanking those that contribute so much, the Trailblazer's held a party at the Asian Crow Museum in downtown Dallas. Wynnwood Events collaborated the entire soiree and what an amazing job they did!
The theme was "East meets West", cultivating the western ideals of Texas and the eastern ideals of Asia. As guests arrived, they were greeted with cowboy and Chinese dragon stilt-walkers.
The event's signature cocktail was a refreshing concoction of Milagro silver tequila, agave nectar and lime juice. Servers passed beautifully displayed appetizers such as crab cakes with Fiji apples and ginger creme fraiche, and Korean short ribs with grilled pineapple and crushed cashews.
The guests relaxed, while listening to the sounds of country singer Derek Sholl .
Upon departure, guests were handed glowing Chinese lanterns, attached to bags of ginger candied pecans.
I cannot emphasize enough what a great impression the Wynnwood event planning team had on me. From the food, to the decor, to the impeccable service- every detail of the evening was exemplified in a creative, and professional manner. It was a beautiful, balmy night in Dallas and evident that everyone had a great time!
