It was hard to believe the holidays were already approaching, but the excitement of the Pickler Wealth Advisors Holiday Dinner could not have been more evident. Guests gathered at the Esplanade Memphis on Thursday, December 9th, 2010 for a very different kind of Holiday Dinner. This year, two members of Iris Orchestra, Leo and Soh-Hyun Altino, gave a one of a kind performance on violin and cello for a private concert that was held in the first ballroom. After a masterful performance and a standing ovation, a familiar visitor came to say hello again! Santa Claus dropped in for photos and hugs and plenty of laughs. The ballroom was then expanded and guests filed in for a wonderful dinner in a dim-lit larger ballroom. Christmas piano music played in the background before door prizes and announcements were made by David Pickler and the PWA staff. Guests continued to chat and soak in the holiday cheer well past the end of the event. It seemed no one wanted the night to end as guests left with a small token and a smile. The final PWA event for 2010 was a smash hit and plans for the 2011 Holiday Dinner are already underway!
