 Your Wedding perfectly!

        Hello Durango!  Let me introduce myself!  My name is Krii Black and I am a Certified Wedding Consultant with the Association of Bridal Consultants, and the newest member of the Durango Party Rental team!  I am so thrilled to be serving the Four Corners area, and look forward to helping put your next event together perfectly! 

        I have the experience and know how to execute a flawless event.  When planning a wedding or any special event most people think they can do it themselves, and I commend them for taking on that task!  But I’m constantly hearing bride’s say they wish they had hired a Day of Coordinator. 

        You wait your whole life for this big day, and every beautiful detail you have planned out since you were a young girl.  The most important part of this elaborate day is your happiness, and I am here to guarantee just that!  Why worry about the vendors showing up on time, the ceremony site being set up just right, or losing your voice organizing your bridal party during the rehearsal?  My job is to make sure you are a guest on your wedding day, and that stressful situations are the last thing on your mind.  Take a look at our Day of Coordination package.  You aren’t hiring a wedding planner, your ensuring piece of mind that this will be the best day of your life. Now that’s priceless! 

         It’s been a pleasure visiting, but I have weddings to plan!  Thank you for taking the time to hear about our exciting new offerings, and please take a stroll through our website to see a more detailed list of all that we do.  Don’t hesitate to get in touch! I look forward to meeting you and “putting it all together perfectly!”

Once again, Durango Party Rental is joining forces with the City of Durango and Building Homes for Heroes (buildinghomesforheroes.org) by honoring our veterans with a burrito breakfast benefit over Labor Day weekend!

Don’t miss the 2nd annual Veterans Benefit Burrito Breakfast on Sunday, September 4th. Head under Durango Party Rental’s tents set up at the transit center from 8:00am to 10:00am to fill your bellies with delicious breakfast burritos provided by Durango Doughworks.

This event is geared towards offering local support to “Building Homes for Heroes”, an organization committed to supporting those who have returned home from the wars in Iraq or Afghanistan with severe wounds and disabilities, with a goal to build homes for families in dire need.

We are able to do this again this year thanks to the tremendous success of last year’s event and we hope to make this years breakfast even bigger!

Please show your support to Building Homes for Heroes who provide individuals, corporations and others with an opportunity to help our severely wounded and disabled veterans and their families rebuild their lives.

A special thanks to Durango Doughworks for the burritos, Bob’s John’s for providing the toilets, Durango Coca-Cola for the beverages and to all the volunteers who make this event possible and successful!

Durango Party Rental in association with Building Homes for Heroes presents The Jeff Solon Swing’n Big Band. The event will be gearing up on May 6th at 7:00pm at Jon Sigillito’s Durango Party Rental in Bodo Park. The event will raise funds for Building Homes for Heroes, a non-profit organization committed to helping our wounded and disabled veterans rebuild their lives.

“It is exciting to see Jon host such a great event and bring in this fun swing band, which Durango rarely gets a chance to see,” said Carol Clark, coordinator of the event. “Through events like this, Durango will be supporting our own culture as a country.

This night will be filled with fun, music, dancing in a hip warehouse loft. The event will feature the Jeff Solon Swing Band including over 8 musicians such as: Doug Owen, Zack Jones, Tim Farrell, Jeff Sweet, Kevin McCarthy, Brad Tarpley, and Deb Barr on vocals. Tickets are available for $12 at the door and the event is open at all ages.

Big Band Music is a musical ensemble, which became popular starting in the early 30’s during the Swing Era. Are you “In The Mood” for a “String of Pearl” as you walk “On The Sunnyside of The Street” to “The A Train” while you hum “Moonlight Serenade” as the “Bye Bye Blackbird” “Sing Sing Sings” “Our Love Is Here To Stay” cause “There Will Never Be Another You” as “Just In Time” you get to the “Tuxedo Junction”? Then, please join Jeff Solon and his 8-piece Swing’n Big Band for a swinging evening of great hits from the 1930’s 40’s and 50’s. All ages of swingers who “Don’t Get Around Much Any More” and those who do dig “Stomping At The Savoy” will enjoy the show!

For information on Jeff Solon Swing’n Big Band contact Jeff Solon Productions at www.jeffsolon.com.

Building Homes for Heroes is internationally recognized for supporting these extraordinary men and women, with a goal to build homes for families in dire need. They believe that it’s our responsibility to support those who have been called upon to make the ultimate personal sacrifice — to protect and safeguard our country by fighting America’s War on Terror.
