Scotty Presents : Cocktail Party 2013 - Why Host Such An Event?




As the organiser of both Scotty Presents : Spring Ball 2012 and Scotty Presents : Cocktail Party 2013 I realised that a major reason that people go to church is not only to grow in their relationship with the Lord, but also to build community through social interaction. There are so many cool people scattered around different churches in Wellington, but often people stay in their cliques within their churches. This in some ways is necessary, but in other ways this makes me sad because I have a heart for connecting people. As a leader of a Connections team at The Street City Church, I hate hearing stories of people who come to church without knowing anyone and then leave without anyone speaking to them.

I was once in that position fresh faced, from out of town and I knew only a few people in Wellington, but I bumped into an old friend at The Street City Church and I attended events and gathering which he knew were on and this got me so well Connected. Without him taking me under his wing I probably would have stopped attending The Street and maybe church altogether.

As an event organiser of some repute, I have decided to help people get connected by organising various sports, sports camp teams and holidays for both my own personal enjoyment and to get people from the church interacting with each other. These are even a way for people to bring their non-Christian friends along to get involved with in a less threatening way than church.

I grew up attending several church balls and even helping to organise one in Dunedin, but Wellington is a bigger place and there is less of the community vibe that you get in smaller centres, hence why I decided to organise an event which I not only wanted to attend, but want heaps of others to attend. In many aspects of life most people want to do something, but someone has to standup and actually organise it, otherwise it won't happen.

So last year Scotty Presents : Spring Ball 2012 saw 180 people (both singles and couples) dance the night away having a great time at The Boatshed, but I thought it would be good to have a slightly smaller event towards the start of the year so that new people to town could meet some people.

Get your tickets for Scotty Presents : Cocktail Party 2013 below via the Eventfinder website. Are you a single or a couple? Are you afraid of getting out of your clique and meeting new people? Everyone who attended the ball were very friendly and I wouldn't have it any other way. This is a Christian friendly event! Get your classy threads on and buy a ticket below!

Scotty Presents : Cocktail Party 2013


Since we had such a great time at Scotty Presents : Spring Ball 2012, may I introduce Scotty Presents : Cocktail Party 2013. 

This is a Christian friendly event on Saturday April 6th 2013 from 8pm until midnight at Foxglove (Foxtail Champagne and Cocktail Bar).

Tickets cost $30 and will include a free drink, (alcoholic or non-alcoholic) and some nibbles.

Standard of dress for the evening is less than formal, but not much less.  Cocktail dresses for the ladies and some kind of suit for the guys with or without tie.

Theme?  The theme is simply cocktail.

What form of entertainment do you want?  Since it is a cocktail party, there will be background music from local group Delphi Groove, but the main entertainment for the evening will be conversation, so come ready to meet new people. 


Because the venue is smaller then there will be limited tickets available, I recommend buying early.  Once you have purchased your ticket, your name will go onto a list at the door.

There will be door sales, but CASH ONLY and they cost $40 each.  This event is open to both singles and couples.

Tickets can be purchased via email scottysspringball@gmail.com or on Eventfinder
