Afterglow Attendees Enjoy a Wow Moment - Elegant Lighted Entry Area

Stunning florals by Shane Walker Designs and a lighted, draped entry welcomed Black Tie Dinner guests this November to the "Afterglow Event" - held in the 11th floor Presidential Suite at Sheraton Dallas downtown. Guests enjoyed a "Wow" moment from the instant they opened the suite door and stepped inside. Beautifully uplit sheer drapery created the most successful Afterglow entrance ever in honor of the 30th anniversary of the dinner.

Don Gaiser and 60 of his friends organized Afterglow, which took place following the Federal Club Black Tie Dinner. Event underwriters and select friends were also treated to a preview early in the evening, where they were able to enjoy the suite in relative comfort. Bar 10 Events provided staffing and bartenders for the preview and after functions. Guests at the late event experienced an elegant reception area leading to a no-holds barred hi-energy lounge.

Lighting and audio services from Dallas Light and Sound entertained the hundreds who visited the suite for the 5 hour duration of the late party. Don Gaiser's legendary after function has followed the Black Tie Dinner in all but one of the last 20+ years. More than 3,000 attend the Black Tie dinner, with nearly a third partaking in the Afterglow festivities.
