Tampa Bay Entrepreneurial Ball Bridgerton Style

Avaymaria Brown | Real Estate Advisor with Engel & Völkers Tampa Downtown

My true purpose and what drives my soul every day is bringing brilliant people together.

They call me the Queen of Connections because I operate with a firm, unyielding conviction: we are not meant to build our empires in isolation.

Scaling success is born entirely from collaboration. In high-tier business, relationships are the ultimate currency, and referrals are the absolute lifeblood of our growth.

When we network with high intention, align our visions, and cross-promote our industries, we create an unstoppable economy of shared success.

It is with this exact spirit of luxury and empowerment that I cordially invite my finest peers, esteemed colleagues, and brilliant lady friends to join me for the royal event of the year.

Secure your finest silks, velvets, and tiaras, and prepare to take your rightful place as we ascend The Stairs of Success together.

The magic begins promptly at 7:00 p.m. behind the closed doors of Avay’s Tea Room. Before the grand ballroom doors swing open, our elite Diamond patrons and special guests will gather in this private, ultra-luxury sanctuary.

As your Queen of Connections, I will be holding court to share an exclusive, high-level presentation on the magnificent new luxury developments coming to the Tampa Bay area. If you want to know exactly where the next wave of capital, prestige, and architectural marvels will rise in our city, you must be in the room where these secrets are unveiled.

Step onto the red carpet and ascend the grand staircase while professional portrait photographers capture your royal arrival. Enjoy live string quartet arrangements of modern melodies as high-society networking fills the air.

A magnificent evening demands a culinary experience of matchless sophistication. Guests will indulge in a full, multi-course luxury dining experience served on fine china with a choice of

:

• The Royal Hors D'oeuvres: Gourmet passed items including savory Mini Empanadas, traditional delicate "Bocaditos" Sandwiches, fresh Caprese Skewers with balsamic glaze, and rich Bruschetta served with Crostini.
• The Grand Entrées: A majestic table selection featuring Imperial Chicken (Fricase), rich Chicken Marsala, and premium Flat Iron Top Sirloin Steak served with savory Au Jus.
• Accompaniments & Greenery: Sumptuous sides including Garlic Mashed Potatoes, aromatic Saffron Rice, Sautéed Garlic Asparagus, and a crisp Spinach Salad with Cranberries & Almonds.
