Seen: Western Fantasy XXIV is a winter wonderland

I can think of a whole lot of people who were very happy that Colorado Snow, the theme for Western Fantasy XXIV, didn’t describe the evening’s weather. I mean, who wants to get all dressed up and then have to slog through a storm to get to the National Western Events Center? At the same time, I can think of a whole lot of people who loved the way the theme influenced the décor. BJ Dyer and his team from Bouquets not only used huge, glitter-encrusted snowflakes and ice-blue lighting to turn the cavernous space into a winter wonderland; they also had ice sculptures lining the entry way and as the focal point of each table’s centerpiece. Chaired by Mariner Kemper, chairman/CEO of UMB Financial Corp., and his wife, Megan, this fundraiser for Colorado branch of Volunteers of America began with cocktails and the chance to purchase snow globes that contained $100 gift certificates to Trice Jewelers or, in the case of lucky ticket-holder Annabel Bowlen, a diamond necklace valued at $10,000. Annabel is named after her mom, the wife of Denver Broncos owner Pat Bowlen.
