An event like this doesn’t happen because of one person. It happens because of a whole lot of people who care. 🤍
First and foremost, our PATIENTS. You are the reason we get to create days like this. Thank you for showing up, trusting us, celebrating with us, and continuing to make Pine & River what it is. Without you, there simply wouldn’t be an event to plan. 🌿
Then there’s the team behind it all.
Liz, Keller + Dr. Wilkes are the heart of Pine & River. Their passion for our patients, this practice, and the experience we want every person to have makes days like this possible.
Kendall + Darby spent months behind the scenes dreaming, planning, coordinating, designing, organizing, and obsessing over the details that brought the day together.
And when event day arrived, some wonderful friends from McFarland Eye Care jumped right in. A huge thank you to Angie, AK, Kim, Porscha + Jennifer for lending a hand and keeping everything running throughout the day. We’re so grateful for a team that shows up for one another. 🤍
We also couldn’t have done it without some incredible partners:
✨ Paige, our Alastin Skincare representative, for sharing her expertise with our patients.
✨ Alicia, our Galderma representative, for being a wonderful partner and supporting our event.
✨ The MC Collective, for setting up her monogramming booth and creating custom wreath sashes for our guests.
✨ Dogtown Balloons, for transforming our space with beautiful balloon installations that brought the vision to life.
And because a day this special deserved to be remembered, a huge thank you to Brooke, our photographer, and Isidro with VI Media, our videographer, for capturing the people, details, energy, and moments we’ll look back on long after the event is over. 📸🎥
There are so many hands, conversations, ideas, late-night texts, tiny details, and wonderful people behind one six-hour event.
So, meet the people who made our 3rd Annual Pine & River Fall Event possible. 🤎
To our patients, our team, our McFarland family, our partners, and our creatives: thank you for helping us bring it all to life.
And after this year? We already have ideas for the next one. 😉
