Of all places in the universe, there was no better place to host The Twilight Ladies Network Golf Invitational than the golf heaven on earth: Phoenix, Arizona. One of the top golf destinations within the industry, Arizona boasts over 220 golf courses statewide. The Twilight Ladies Network is an elite organization comprised of over 200 meeting planners located in the Toronto Metropolitan area of which that have a strong influence and love for the game of golf. This year’s event took place here in Scottsdale and Sedona and AZA Events had the distinct pleasure of hosting their annual tournament along with several luxury resorts for the 29 ladies. The four day event started on Friday at the Fairmont Scottsdale Resort. They truly kicked off the event with a lovely reception which then followed by AZA greeting them at Princess Plaza with a tray of mini sparkling bottles of champagne to escort them onto their transfer to their extraordinary sancturay on Camelback Inn Resort. The Sanctuary hosted for us for a tantalizing dining experience by their Award Winning Iron Chef, Bo.
On Saturday, there was no time for any beauty sleep as the ladies hit the greens early at the TPC golf course, home to the FBR Open, a PGA tournament. After a fun day of bantering on the golf course, it was time to pack their bags to head to the historical and Frank Lloyd Wright influenced resort, The Arizona Biltmore. The resort had the ladies stay in their new private luxury collection of guest rooms that included their own private concierge. Later that evening, the Executive Chef created a unique one-of-a-kind speed dating dining event. There were four chef stations that enable the guests to eat small portioned entrees, converse with the chef, and then move onto the next station. Afterwards, all the ladies congregated outside for a night cap outside the fire pit. There was a lot of entertaining activity going on but mums the word.
Once again, sleeping was not an option. If the girls where tired they didn’t show it as they were ready, willing and able for the biggest golf tournament. AZA and The Golf Event Company hosted these lovely ladies at the Grayhawk Golf course, one of Scottsdale premier courses in the valley. They weren’t quit prepared for the triple digit heat conditions but nothing that a few beers and adult beverages couldn’t cure. Some of the PGA rules we are pretty certain were tossed aside but who never heard of a do-over.

Later that evening, AZA took the ladies on a once in a lifetime adventure. The ladies loaded Hummers and were then escorted into the desert canyons of the Four Peaks where a blank desert canvas had been turned into a chic desert affair. We brought all of the elements you would find in an on-property gala event and dropped it in the middle of the Sonoran Desert; complete with carpet, stunning table treatments, and entertainment. In lieu of a psychic we introduced a lipstick reader who analyzes your past, present and future through the lines in your lips.
