Spotlight on Sponsors: Maker's Anyone?

You can't have an event for a Kentucky cause without bourbon. That's why the Red Carpet & Bluegrass Benefit is thrilled and honored to to welcome Maker's Mark as a Starring Sponsor!

Even if you haven't had the benefit of sipping this sweet nectar of Loretto, Kentucky...or visiting the picturesque distillery...you've most assuredly seen the signature amber bottle draped in red wax. Unless, that is, you've been living under a rock since 1933!

Guests at the Red Carpet & Bluegrass Benefit will have the distinct privilege of sampling a selection of signature Marker's Mark cocktails, including the Samuels family's own Maker's Mark Manhattan and the classic Maker's on the rocks. And courtesy of Maker's Mark, guests won't leave empty handed--each will take home a goodie bag of Maker's Mark "swag."

Tickets are on sale now, and going fast! CLICK HERE to join us on the red carpet and enjoy the finest Kentucky has to offer!

Spotlight on Sponsors: Jessica Del Vecchio Photography

The Red Carpet & Bluegrass Benefit is thrilled and honored to feature Jessica Del Vecchio Photography as a Supporting Sponsor. I have known Jessica personally for years, and watched her growth as a wedding and portrait photographer. She is now one of the region's most talented and sought after artists--though she'd never admit it herself!

Whether photographing a baby's first steps or a bride's walk down the aisle, Jessica has an incredible knack for capturing the precious moments that often escape the naked eye. Check out Jessica's latest work on her blog and see for yourself.

Jessica Del Vecchio is currently booking portraits, weddings, and events in 2009, so if you're looking for an unbelievable photographer, contact Jessica directly at jessica@jessicadelvecchio.com. Peak wedding season dates in October and June are going fast!

Spotlight on Sponsors: Design by Ina

When the "old Hollywood" concept for the Red Carpet & Bluegrass Benefit started to take shape, I knew exactly who to approach to do the logo, Web site layout, and overall branding: Graphic designer Ina Herrera. She has it all. Brains, beauty, and talent. Her modern , clean approach to graphic design perhaps derives from her Norwegian roots. Wherever she gets it, I knew she was the one to develop the "art deco goes contemporary" look and feel of my dreams.

I think you'll agree that Ina hit it out of the park. The logo itself--an abstract, stained glass circa 1920s rendition of the red carpet and bluegrass--perfectly captures my vision. And the vibrancy of the Web site's red and gold on black motif speaks to the glamour of this special event. Ina has been a joy to work with, and I so appreciate the pro bono work she has done (and continues to do!) on behalf of the benefit. At this time of Thanksgiving, lending her creative genius to the Red Carpet & Bluegrass Benefit is the most special of gifts.

In addition to brand and logo development, Ina is available to design custom stationary, holiday cards, and invitations. I hope you will consider Design by Ina for your special event or corporate needs.

For more information, contact Ina at or visit her blog.
