Hotel in Fort Lauderdale, Florida Takes the Guess Work Out of Elegant Event Planning

FORT LAUDERDALE, FL--(Marketwired - Mar 31, 2015) - A challenge when planning any event is accommodating guests and making sure that friends and family, or co-workers and clients are well taken care of during their stay.
