The 'night of nights' held surprises
for everyone and our Platinum Sponsor, Hardy Brothers Jewellers, wowed the
crowd when their 3 gorgeous models entered the room hosted by Hilton Waiters
carrying trays of sparkling cubic zirconias for EVERY person, with one of
the recipients actually receiving a 0.62 carat, $7000 diamond! Guests need
to take their gems into Hardy Brothers Jewellers to have them tested to see
who has won the real diamond!
But that wasn't the only surprise!
During dinner, guests were enthralled when a bit of a 'singing' competition
ensued between some of the wait staff. Hidden amongst the Hilton crew were
some very special 'incognito' waiters - The Three Waiters! - who proceeded
to wow the crowd with their amazing show, and went on to receive a standing
ovation from the entire room.
Cheers,
Andrea Jackson
