Dîner en Blanc - New York

(event held on Monday, August 20, 2012)

Description

Le Dîner en Blanc, a “bright” idea…

At the last minute, the location is given to thousands of friends and acquaintances
who have been patiently waiting to learn the Dîner en Blanc’s secret place. Thousand of
people, dressed all in white, and conducting themselves with the greatest decorum,
elegance, and etiquette, all meet for a mass “chic picnic” in a public space.

This was one of the most fun and classiest events we've done since moving back to the NYC area!

I forget how I found out about it, but I tried registering for the first Dîner en Blanc event held in NYC last year, which apparently was the first one ever held in the United States.  I signed up for the waiting list on July 7th 2011 and the waiting list (phase 2) registration would be on August 12th, with the actual event being held on August 25th.

Well, after the frenzy of going through the registration steps, including payment via PayPal, I never did receive an official confirmation :(

I did receive this email:

Big bummer...

but I didn't think twice about it afterwards nor follow up to see how the event went.

Fast forward to August 7th 2012 -- when I happily received an invitation to register for this year's event, but yet again, with no guarantee....
