Didriks will provide tablescapes for all eight locations of the inaugural Boston Junior League Uncommon Kitchens Tour on June 5, 2010.

The inaugural Uncommon Kitchens event is a self-guided walking tour of Boston’s most exciting and beautiful kitchens designed by the city’s most prestigious designers. Winding its way through the distinctive neighborhoods of Beacon Hill, Back Bay, and the South End the tour offers a peek into distinctive Boston homes and an exciting glimpse at the latest trends in luxury appliances, custom cabinetry, counter tops, and paint colors.

Uncommon Kitchens Tour Co-Chair Kristin Hunter said “The tour gives visitors exposure to the very latest in kitchen decor and the work of Boston’s top designers. Partnering with Didriks and Faxon Green floral design allowed us to add the finishing touch to the tour environments.”

Didriks owner Jonathan Henke said “Partnering with the Boston Junior League Kitchen Tour was a great honor and an opportunity for us to display how well the tableware of different manufacturers we offer come together in the home. Providing tableware design for eight very different settings was a refreshing challenge.”

Posh Events and Favors, Inc., an event planning company located in New York City, has announced the launch of www.posheventsandfavors.com, a website offering gifts, favors, event supplies and accessories for all types of special occasions.

Company president Angela Beis-Thomaidis began her event planning business in 2007, and since its inception she has designed and managed destination weddings, bridal and baby showers, bat mitzvahs and christenings. “I believe that the key to planning a successful event is developing a good relationship with the client,” Angela stated. “It’s not enough to merely gather information about the menu and number of guests. I spend a great deal of time in the beginning getting to know my clients and their preferences, so that all the details of the event are perfectly in line with their wishes.”

Posh client Theana Haag experienced this level of commitment and attention to detail first hand when she asked Angela to plan and manage her daughter’s bridal shower. “Angie took our theme and ran with it, executing every detail of the event down to the table napkins with style. And her recommendations were always in line with our budget. The bridal shower was beautiful and memorable.”

The new Posh website grew out of Angela’s responsiveness to her clients. “Creating the website was a natural extension of my event planning business,” she said. “Clients would ask me to help them find the right favors, wedding party gifts, even flower girl baskets. So I decided to create a site where a bride and groom could find most wedding essentials on a single website – one-stop shopping – and so that people planning or attending other types of events would be able to find what they need.”

www.posheventsandfavors.com currently has over 4,000 items representing manufacturers from all over the world. Prices range from under $2.00 for event favors such as plantable placecards embedded with flower seeds, to $100.00 or more for picture frames of gemstones and Swarovski crystals. The visitor is able to search by type of event, type of gift, price range or event theme. There is also a search engine so that buyers can find exactly what they want by searching with one or two keywords.

“I asked my clients what would make their planning easier, and they told me that it would be finding what they want without visiting a dozen websites or wading through hundreds of unrelated items,” Angela continued. “Brides can browse categories for their wedding favors, place card holders, frames for wedding party gifts, and crystal headbands and veils. With our Search function, visitors can search for Swarovski crystal, porcelain, Italian ceramics, even items in a specific color.”

Angela’s business has been built primarily by word of mouth, referrals that have brought in business for multiple events within the same family, even some overseas. “I’m proud of the strong relationships I’ve built with my clients, and I’m thrilled to be able to plan an engagement party, then a bridal shower, the wedding, and ultimately a baby shower – all for one family!”

Posh Events and Favors, Inc. is an event planning and management company also offering event favors and gifts through its website www.posheventsandfavors.com. For additional information, please contact Angela Beis-Thomaidis at 646-266-7089.

Pioneered in 1994 in the early days of the Internet, affiliate marketing has coolly become one of the most powerful and advanced systems for revenue generation by small and medium players. According to a study available from Forrester Research, affiliate marketing is expected to receive $3.3 billion commission in 2012. And being part of this lucrative underground industry is often easier than expected.

Choosing a trustworthy brand that’s a proven earner is the key to cash as it’s far easier to sell quality content that incorporates innovative development. Already with a successful affiliate program, international dating giant Anastasia International has just launched a streamlined account interface to provide affiliates with even greater revenue potential, smoother administration and marketing versatility. It encompasses all her successful dating websites – AnastasiaDate.com, AmoLatina.com, OrientBrides.com and AfricaBeauties.com – that already attract a combined annual visitor total of over 140 million.

The new Anastasia International Affiliate deal means existing partners of one website gain automatic access to the other three in one slick interface, while new affiliates sign up with the money-making quartet straightaway. Once logged into www.anastasiasaffiliate.com all partners will see the dynamic index page complete with rotating header banner. There they can simply choose any of the four dating website accounts to download banners and get all other advertising material to start earning.

Once an affiliate has started generating impressive sums of cash with any of the Anastasia Affiliate Programs, they can check their progress in the newly designed statistical reports. These are likely to make tremendous reading given the premium range of payment options across all four dating portals: $250 per first order, $125 per subsequent order and $5 per lead. One unique new feature of Anastasia’s websites are the popular Romance Tours, which provide just another way for affiliates to earn big bucks.
