FOR RELEASE:  October 2007, The Town-Crier
Savvy Event & Party Planner Relocates to Wellington
WELLINGTON, FL - By their very nature, events are big.  They are daunting projects
that sometimes require hundreds of hours of planning and preparation.  If you're not
careful, disaster can strike quickly.

South Florida may have its share of event planners, but it's unlikely that few carry the
grace, creativity and panache of Leslie Garcia-Furey, newly arrived from New Jersey.   
Garcia-Furey's company, LGF Events Planner, announces its debut season, offering multi-
dimensional services to the social, private and corporate sectors throughout the Palm
Beaches.  

Over 28 years invested in the corporate arena has given Leslie more than the skills
needed as an events planner.  What stands out in this energetic woman's glittering
career?

Garcia-Furey relates, "I produced a Winter in NYC theme for a corporate holiday
gathering of approximately 300 guests.  The entrance to the dining hall was decorated as
the Holland tunnel.  The hall was festively decorated with cascading lighting of
shimmering white and blue against the magnificent props, which gave the illusion of NY
sidewalks and storefronts, trees with icicles hanging from their branches, images of
people strolling about and food vendors dressed in winter attire with snow dust on their
hats and shoulders.  There were carving stations of roast beef, tenderloin, chicken, and
turkey, along with a seafood, sushi and dessert station.  We had an open bar, a band and
dancing.  Executives gave speeches with slide presentations.  The favors consisted of a
bottle of wine wrapped in white and blue glittering nylon gift bags.  A photographer was
stationed outside in the hallway taking instant pictures of attendees."

It was festive to say the least.

"Like being in wonderland," Garcia-Furey fondly recalls.  "Everyone who attended had a
spectacular time."

It is the experience and success of this very event, and many others like it, that LGF
Events Planner brings to the Western Communities and beyond.

After putting the time, money and energy into your event, why leave anything to
chance?  LGF Events Planner will take care of all the details, such as the music, food and
drinks, locations and logistics.  Event planning should be left to the most qualified
professional – one who is certified with the proper credentials – and most importantly,
one who has a personality that meshes with yours.  It is imperative that the Event
Coordinator be someone whom you can confide in and trust to put the details together
in order to insure the outcome of such an affair, large-scale or small.  An event planner
usually specializes in coordinating large-scale special events.  A Party Planner or Party
Coordinator specializes in showcasing smaller scale get-togethers such as birthday parties,
Bar Mitzvahs, Bat Mitzvahs, Corporate Holiday Parties and the like.  Each is a separate
discipline.  LGF Events Planner does both.  Aside from planning and organizing
significant corporate events, Leslie Garcia-Furey continues to awe family and friends with
social events and elaborate dinner parties.

What is in the immediate future for LGF Events Planner?

Leslie is focused on connecting with residents and organizations of the Palm Beaches.  
Her mission is to build strategic relationships and successful outcomes.  She is involved in
her community and provides her time and energies as a volunteer at the Alzheimer
Community Care, YWCA Harmony House, Diabetes Foundation, and the Cultural
Trust of the Palm Beaches.  “It is such a rewarding experience to be involved in areas
that are close to home, and the opportunity to meet people of diversity is endless,”
comments Leslie Garcia-Furey.

She is also involved in professional organizations, which include the Chamber of
Commerce of the Palm Beaches, Women’s Chamber of Commerce, Palm Beach
Executive Network, Palm Beach Network Group, and Gold Coast Public Relations
Council.  “It is my way of building partnerships and sound relationships.  Everyone has
something to offer in a strategic alliance.”
