Here is a toast to a Happy 

New Year and New Beginnings 

this month as we introduce 

our 

Wedding Issue. 2018 is 

here and we are featuring our 

beautiful Pensacola Weddings.

This issue also includes 

our popular 

I Am Pensacola 

which features a Pensacola 

event planner, Darrin Land, 

celebrating his 500th wedding, 

and Going on the Ride of your 

Life in 

Adventure Out.

Be sure not to miss our 

Coastal Cuisine where we 

spotlight I DOnuts and we 

feature Cheers to You, in 

Swizzle

We attended many events 

including the Junior Achievement of Northwest Florida 

Hall of Fame, Merry Marketplace, Perdido Key Chamber 

Business After Hours, and the EscaRosa Toys for Tots 

Mixer, to name a few. We love seeing Pensacola supporting 

these events and encourage you to invite us to cover your 

special events.

Peruse our fun events online at VIPPensacola.com.
Enjoy your January issue of 

VIP Pensacola…we look 

forward to seeing you again next month. 

 
Cheers!
