40th Birthday PartyADH Meetings & Events planned a 40th birthday/art opening for my husband. It was absolutely perfect in every respect.From the start, ADH spent an enormous amount of time helping select the best venue and even negotiated with the artgallery to remove their art collection so that my husband could show all of his own pieces.

The small art gallery was transformed into a beautiful evening celebrating my husbands art and birthday. From each flower tothe beautiful food arrangements down to the signature drink and entertainment - it was a flawless evening. I was able toenjoy myself and time with my guests as every detail was taken care of with professionalism and class. I would recommendADH for any event, big or small.
