I have to stop and soak in how quickly the Blogger Xchange has grown. We had our first event in Nashville in November 2017 and since have expanded to Minneapolis and soon Memphis. My partner Kay Elle and I traveled to Minneapolis for our first event on Friday, March 9. We partnered with Mercy Dining Room and Le Meridien Chambers to host our event in their beautiful Gallery and Library Lounge.
We had wine and passed apps in the Gallery provided by Mercy. This is where we held our networking hour and panel discussion featuring 4 fabulous ladies. After, we moved down to the Library to have an exclusive tasting from Bacardi. Bacardi is releasing a new line of 3 aged rums (4 year old, 8 year old and 10 year old). We were able to taste and learn about all 3. I’m not a rum drinker, but I did enjoy them and learned the proper way to drink rum for maximum enjoyment.
Here’s a recap video that takes me back to all of the fabulous vibes of the night. Thank you once again to all of our sponsors. In case your wondering, my fabulous outfit for the night was styled by Uplift Thrift. They do virtual and in-person styling. Our beautiful photos came from BMO photos.
