Charleston Fashion Week

Hey guys, I've got some exciting info together. During March 24-28, in Charleston SC, will be Charleston Fashion Magazine's Third Annual fashion week. The location is Marion Square in downtown Charleston. It is quote, "a five-night celebration of the city’s flourishing retail and design community featuring runway shows from local retailers, the Bridal Couture Show, and the debut of emerging regional designers in the southeast." The website is www.charlestonfashionweek.com

The event has local designers, shoe exhibits, handbag exhibits, jewelry exhibits and the works. We have 6 or 7 of us already that would love to go. Tickets range anywhere form $30 to $195 dollars. We were thinking of driving down Friday morning to Charleston, staying in a hotel/condo, going to the show on Friday night and then going out Friday night. On Saturday we would spend the day in Charleston, shopping and what-not and then head to the finale show on Saturday night around 8pm. There will be a after-party at 930 that night too.

We are all very excited about this and would love to know who all would like to go so we will know how to go about travel arrangements, hotel accomodations, show tickets, etc. The prices are as follows...

(The Art Institute of Charleston in heavily involved so maybe we can get discounts on tickets?)

Daily Show Tickets – Watch spring's hottest looks strut down the Charleston Fashion Week runway with a daily general admission ticket. CASH BAR.
$40 daily Tuesday-Thursday; $45 Friday and $30 Saturday PM

Bridal Couture Tickets – View the latest in chic bridal couture while sipping mimosas and enjoying nibbles and special door prizes. $40 per ticket.

Finale Gala – Mingle or dance the night away with Charleston's most fashionable people at the red carpet Finale celebration. Includes an OPEN BAR, food and live entertainment. $75 per ticket.

Saturday Combo Ticket –Includes admission to Saturday evening's much anticipated runway show of Emerging Designer Finalists (CASH BAR) PLUS the Finale Gala red carpet event (OPEN BAR). $95 per ticket.


I guess we could all do a daily show ticket for Friday at $45.00 and then a Saturday combo ticket for $95.00

Let me know what you all think, and I will get more info together for us. We need to get rooms in advance, some hotels will probably already be sold out so we better hurry!

Thanks!
