We received many compliments from our guests about the wonderful ambiance at The U Thant Institute's 2010 Ambassadors' Luncheon. Bunny Beck's performance during our reception was no small contributor to that success. Her talent was coupled with a purely professional attention to our needs -- often making extra efforts to relieve my "to-do" list. I highly recommend Bunny to any special event organizer.
