We are thrilled to have had the great honor of producing a Thanksgiving sunset dinner cruise, as well as a Christmas/holiday party, for the first national touring company of the smash Broadway hit, The Book of Mormon, in Ft. Lauderdale, FL during the 2013 holiday season.
Produced by Verve Central Productions, on Thursday, November 28, 2013, the event was held on board the Kathleen Windridge, sailing up and down the Atlantic Intracoastal Waterway.
The yacht, docked at Bahia Mar, preparing to sail before sunset.
Upon boarding, guests were greeted and served champagne by members of the incredible yacht staff.
Many guests enjoyed the beginning of the cruise on deck 3, before sunset.

Hands down, this was the most decorated home viewed.
Guests received a “goodnight kiss,” as they disembarked the yacht . . . a bouquet consisting of a key lime cake pop, a Nutella cake pop, and a chocolate-dipped Oreo pop, deliciously created by Mimi’s Cake Pops by Janette Hernandez.

A few words about our service . . .
“. . . Verve Central Productions rose to the occasion of transforming each and every one of my requests into something exceeding my expectations.

“Matt’s enthusiasm and work ethic, and his ability to multi-task and manage several elements in a fast-paced, highly charged environment, is why he proved to be essential to the success of our events. While many refer to themselves as event planners, with a background in theater and live entertainment, Matt is a true event producer; not only “planning,” but executing, managing, and following up, through to the last minute.”
