Don't make plans next week and if you have some, you may need to break them!!

Next week we have two VERY significant, VERY important events coming up.

On Wednesday, we have Social Esquire's relaunch event.  If you don't know who Social Esquire is, you should.  They are 3 intriguing young women.  The 3 successful lawyers find the time around their careers and families to run their boutique event company together.  As I was saying, on Wednesday, they will be holding their first EmpoWOMENt event which will benefit organizations that directly impact women.

We obviously LOVED this idea and fully support Social Esquire's vision and you should too!

RFS and our conflict-free diamond rings will be present.  Make sure to RSVP at rsvp@socialesquire.com.  We would love to see you empoWOMENing :) 

Secondly, for all of our friends, other wedding vendors, and most specifically all those women who just recently got engaged, clear your schedule for Saturday, February 26.

Shiraz Events is putting on, Ask the Experts 2011, Bridal Trends, presented by Town & Country Magazine.  They are flying in some of the top industry experts to speak with all us about popular bridal trends in invitations, design, food, fashion and more.  The Saturday afternoon event will take place close to RFS, in the beautiful courtyard at Villa 221.  This is sure to be incredibly beneficial to vendors and brides alike.

We will actually be the ONLY vendor there featuring engagement rings and wedding bands!!  We are TERRIBLY excited and of course, we would LOVE to see you here too!  Make sure to RSVP at rsvp@shirazevents.com!! Most importantly, do not hesitate to share this event!

Like we previously mentioned, we love learning and interacting and attending/participating in events like these!  Make some suggestions!  

Hope to see you all next week!!

Rally for Kids Pool and Poker Tournament at STK

Rally for Kids, a charity that benefits kids with cancer, (which has some heavy hitting endorsers like Eva Longoria and Gene Simmons) held a fund raising event last night that we were privileged enough to participate in.  Here are some pics from the night, a pool and poker tournament coupled with Grey Goose at STK in the Gansevoort.  

Joel Hock, founder, speaking about the Rally and upcoming events. 

Winners received donated gifts from the Gansevoort and Grey Goose.  

RFS was able to hold our own contest.   We had all of the charitable competitors and spectators guess the carat weight of nine of our FAVORITE RFS engagement rings.  Whoever came the closest won a set of hand cut, amethyst in 14k gold earrings.

We'll be donating a FABULOUS ring for the Road Race and Auction in April, and make sure to check out the Rally for Kids website to find out how you can donate!
