    “ Outstanding! LeeAnne as the organizer does a really great job with introducing everyone to each other to make the evening comfortable. She also has an amazing ability to remember people's names and introductions. She also makes learning about wine low key and non-pretentious. She makes her events fun for everyone! ”

LeeAnne creates the most warm and inviting atmosphere and hits the high mark in: event space, food, wine, people, presentation, attidude and introductions. She keeps it simple and then "over delivers" with quality in every facet. ”

    “ LeeAnne tries to make everyone feel like THE VIP GUEST, and in so doing, makes us all feel more self-confident and more wanting to mingle, and make sure the party is fun for everyone. I think that's a key ingredient to why her events work so well. Plus, there's some really good wines! ”

    “ If you like to drink wine and meet new people in a mingling kind of environment, it's good. Ditto if you are looking to meet members of the opposite sex. The wines were good, but if you are looking to become a wine expert at one of these events, it won't happen. ”

  • The Social, Wine Events Group Community

    “ I like it and I have recommended to a few friends. I'll see if I can find some men to come out and join the fun. Perhaps the cost for those who continue to attend these events can be lowered? say $25.00 instead of $35.00...that's if for now. Happy Holidays. ”

    —A former member on Jan 15, 2006.

  • “ I think anyone who would like to meet new people, make new friends, learn about and taste new wine, spend very little money and have lots of bonus wines or just get out of the house should join our exciting group! ”

    — LeeAnne: N.Y.C. Event Planner on Jun 27, 2008.

  • “ My name did not appear on the list of attendees, and I did not have my payment receipt. Though her door manager ultimately concluded that the error was on their part and let me in, there was additional confusion with drink tickets. On approaching the table where glasses of wine were being given distributed, I was told I needed a drink ticket. The door people were obviously supposed to give attendees a small pouch containing two drink tickets, which I had to go back to the door to obtain. I heard at least one other attendee asking where to get drink tickets and being directed back to the door for them. I have attended LeeAnne's events in the past, and she was more vigilant at prior events in introducing people. Her Wine 101 discussion was informative. ”
