life isn't average. neither are we.
"It's like Glee meets the show Fame!"
Kristina Chau - Tuesday, May 18, 2010
I have been working the better part of this year on a wonderful and inspiring fundraiser called simply divas in support of FAME - Family Association for Mental Health Everywhere.  If you love timeless music, tasty treats, great swag and a fun time, you definitely don't want to miss out on this fabulous event taking place on Sunday June 6 at The Berkeley Church!


To promote this event Christine Cooper, Executive Director at FAME and myself were guests on Rogers Daytime Toronto.  Here is a video introduction of the segment with hosts Myrocia and Drew.  As Myrocia says "it's like Glee meets the show Fame!" 


Unfortunately the full segment is not available on the web but we've ordered a copy of the DVD and will post it here as soon as possible!  In the meantime, here are some pics of us getting ready for our segment:

I invite you to join us on Sunday June 6 at The Berkeley Church for this fabulous event starring the up-and-coming talent from the Etobicoke School of the Arts. Enjoy an afternoon of delicious canapes, divatinis, the whimsical Pillbox Hatgirls (pictured here) and a spectacular silent auction and swag bags.  Advance tickets are only $35 and include a complimentary glass of wine or beer.  Call 416.207.5032 for further information or visit www.simplydivas.ca.

I can't even begin to express how excited I am to finally have this website up and running!  It’s been a long journey but one that has been well worth it.  I hope you love it just as much as I do!

One of the great functions of this site is this blog.  I’ll be sharing ideas and tips to take your event from run-of-the-mill to ‘not your average party’. I’d love to hear from you, so please feel free in posting questions you have and sharing your feedback in the comment section below.

Also, don't forget to follow me on Twitter @notyouraverageparty to get quick updates and see what's happening in the party world and join our Facebook Not Your Average Party fan page to see more event photos.

Thanks for stopping by and I look forward to partying with you all soon!



Party Pooper Warning:  While I have every intention to update this blog as often as possible, I am also planning events and attending as many of them as possible...so from time to time I may be a bit of a party pooper.  I hope you understand that it's not for lack of caring, but the complete opposite!  Besides party people, let’s face it, people hire me for my creative flare and attention to detail, not necessarily my writing skills ;)
