We Love nothing more than to give back, and the 2010 American Heart Association Heart Ball was perfect for us. This event is put on in cities across the nation annually to raise local dollars for heart and vascular research and education.

One thing Charleston is not short on is amazing artists, and to see so many amazing pieces auctioned for the cause was invigorating! Rare finds of specialty wines and jewels were also placed on the block for this incredible organization.

Couldn’t make the evening, check out the memories captured by our dear friends at Hyer Images.

Many of our industry friends lent their support in the form of volunteer time and original centerpieces to show their interpretations of our awesome theme (if we do say so ourselves, lol) “Art Growing Wild.”

Thanks to such an amazing outpouring of support, the 2010 Heart Ball raised six figures over last year, and we had so much fun we are already looking forward to 2011!

As I mentioned, a lot of amazing vendors gave time to this wonderful cause, so here goes:

Thanks to Other Brother Entertainment and Technical Event Company.

The following amazing members of our industry took our request for centerpieces inspired by the featured painting and went above and beyond: Cafe Catering, Country & Lace Florist, Wildflowers Inc, Petals by Pamela, Eventa Bella, Events by Duvall, JW Weddings and Events, inventivENVIRONMENTS, Stem/Southern Protocol, Simply Eventful, Branch/Susan Gough, Luke Wilson Special Events, and yours truly.

We also had some great silent auction monitors in volunteers from: Newton Farms Catering, Ergonomix PR, and Katherine Miller Events.

Oh boy! So Jill and JB are fun, and on top of that, they have fun friends. With a crowd like this , focus on amazing lighting and food and let them do the rest!

Things started off with an elegant ceremony at historic St. Luke’s downtown. Charo was on-hand early, so not a second of the day would be missed, and she caught some FAB shots!

Every element of the day was about providing guests with a memorable party from the fab cocktails that greeted them at the entrance to the Boone Hall Cotton Dock to adding some time to allow for lots o’ shaking tailfeathers!

Throw in a classic black mustang driven by 7-year itch Marilyn, and you have to be fun to have a tiered cake of funfetti!

After dinner things got crazy and all of the beautiful people hit the dance floor. It was not an option to leave out these amazing shots of the action!
