Obviously Friendsgiving 2017

This year at Obviously, we had a lot to be thankful for, so it was a no-brainer to host our very first Friendsgiving. We were joined by some of our most dear, NY-based influencer friends to celebrate in our cozy Soho office space high above the busy city streets.

With plenty of delicious food and cocktails to go around, we all gathered around the dinner table adorned with colorful flowers and candles to (quite literally) break bread. A few words from our CEO and Founder, Mae, set the tone of the evening.

“I wanted to especially thank everyone here for joining us on this special night. We are so fortunate to be able to work with talented individuals like yourselves, and we look forward to creating more memories in the upcoming year. Obviously wouldn’t be the same without each and every one of you.”

The rest of the evening was filled with good conversation, games, plenty of laughs, and last but not least, fire selfies.
