Testimonials
"The events team at Alex and Ani wanted to thank you for your support and positive energy in making last Thursday's “White Party” such a success at your beautiful venue. Without your hard work and dedication, our guests would not have had such a wonderful experience. Thank you for helping us achieve a night our guests will long remember!”
Alex and Ani
“Our company outing to The International Tennis Hall of Fame during the summer was a unique experience for everyone. Our group had a mix of tennis enthusiasts and those who had little experience with the sport, but everyone appreciated the lovely grounds inside the gates and the beautiful museum. Our colleagues enjoyed snapping photos and looking at the tennis paraphernalia on display from each decade. We even took pleasure in a catered dinner on a porch overlooking an old-fashioned tennis match. If you’re looking to provide colleagues with a unique New England experience, visiting The International Tennis Hall of Fame in Newport, RI is an excellent choice!”
