THE EXPERIENCE
For this special evening event think vintage but definitely DON'T think mason jars and craft paper! Step back into the elegant world of classic cars, vintage glamour and timeless beauty. Dine in style as waiters come by with tray-passed hors d'oeuvres and roving carts filled with divine decadence from Good Gracious! Events. While business in this brand new world speeds up, take the time to make a real connection with each other during this very rare WIPA evening event.
