Party Planners & Planning Resources

Over the weekend I managed to catch the new Lifetime series "Top this Party", that has new episodes every Friday night at 10p.m. with rebroadcasts throughout the week. Although I've been enjoying the recent break from television, courtesy of the writer's strike, I couldn't miss checking out this series about two party planners to the very rich and spoiled. One of the party planners, Brian Dobbin, serves clients based in Orange County, CA. The other one, Brian Rice, works in Las Vegas. Once I was able to get past the spoiled women who hired Brian Dobbin, I enjoyed watching these planners at work. After all, not many of us have the challenge of putting together a party with a virtually unlimited budget. The sky's the limit for these bashes - I just wish the clients appreciated how good they have it, instead of petulantly demanding more. Did you watch the show? Will you tune in next week?
