A year in the making, this past weekend marked the Livv Lyfe Prom. Having spent the past year designing, styling and creating a prom dress of her dreams with Lauren Loose of the Lauren's First and Goal Foundation, it was incredible to see the final project come to fruition. Ms. Loose attended the event with former NFL player Blake Costanzo whom stood by a ten year pledge to attend the senior prom with Lauren. An amazing and talented team featuring dress designer Jene Stefaniak, make-up artist Jenna Kelly, hair stylist Jessica Pineda, and fashion designer Terese Sydonna (designer of Blake's bow tie) ensured that the event came together perfectly. It was an honor to be a part of this special night for such a special girl. Humbled, to say the least, it was a simple reminder of to enjoy life, have fun and LIVV.

Big Bravo to Marianne Loose, John Loose, Grace Loose and the entire Loose family for putting together an incredible prom night!
