July 2023 Newsletter
all under one roof
Welcome back to The Vine! It's been a while since we last connected, but that's because you (our amazing clients) have kept us busy. 2022 was a record-breaking year, and our team is on target to execute over 2,000 events in 2023.
On April 5, 2023, Divine Events celebrated the completion of our new 15,000 sq. ft. Corporate Headquarters with a ribbon cutting facilitated by the Henderson Chamber of Commerce. The new headquarters includes a state-of-the-art catering kitchen, corporate offices, tasting room, and warehouse. Not only is it a beautiful new space, but it also marks the first time our kitchen, sales, and operations teams have been all under one roof in the last 13 years! Sean Leibovici, VP of Operations, along with our architect, designed an amazing and efficient space for our business to operate in. The results have been incredible for our business operations.
We took the opportunity to bring our brand and values front and center as we continue to build our talented team. Many of our team members will be featured in our monthly newsletters and updates on social media, so keep your eyes open. Don't forget to share with your colleagues, family, and friends. We'd love to welcome them all as part of the Divine Family!
EVENT HIGHLIGHT
We are excited to share that Divine Events had the opportunity to showcase its exquisite food and beverage offerings at The Smith Center. This was a wonderful chance for us to demonstrate our passion for culinary excellence and provide The Smith Center's philanthropic donors with an unforgettable experience! The Tina! and Tea event honored the life of Tina Turner and was the first donor event since COVID. Our team worked tirelessly to craft a menu that perfectly complemented the elegant atmosphere. The high afternoon tea included delectable savory and sweet selections, specialty teas, and a magnificent blue butterfly specialty mocktail. Divine Events made an in-kind donation for all the food and beverage served during this memorable event in collaboration with and in support of the performing arts.
