One of our favorite parts of this event was their fantastic band Nafshenu Orchestra – they were able to handle a lot of traditional Jewish music, plus standards and current dance singles, all with a tight sound and skilled musicianship.

And we were so impressed with (and delighted by) the food by Mayfair Farms’ staff – everything from sushi to baked chicken was inventive and delicious. There was even a cupcake tower instead of a cake! Yum!

Can’t forget shout-outs for my invaluable “A” team — Matt Bender was my 2nd photographer and Herb Way was our lighting assistant.  See if you can spot us below – that’s me of course, goofing off in front of the black background, that’s Herb helping with gathering groups for the background, and that’s Matt taking the photos against our studio-style black background!
