Event Extraordinaire Elvira Grau Featured on Top Canadian Reality Show “Party Mamas"

March 9, 2010 - PRLog -- Englewood Cliffs, NJ (March 10, 2010) – New Jersey entrepreneur Elvira Grau, known as the creator and founder of SPACE ODYSSEY USA Family Entertainment Venue in Englewood, NJ and the newly launched SPACE PORT in Paterson, NJ will showcase her dynamic event planning and marketing skills internationally in upcoming episode of “Party Mamas.”

“Party Mamas” is a runaway hit in Canada, drawing high ratings for the outrageous parties (and mothers) that are profiled on the program.  The episode featuring Grau will debut in Canada and the UK in early April (with a U.S. premiere this fall on E!) and chronicles a “Euro-Trash" theme Birthday Bash for 17-year-old Rachel.  Faced with a demanding client and an opportunity to showcase her impressive event planning skills, Grau went all out to create an event that's over the top complete with human disco balls, drag queens, wire walker, outrageous aerialists, and an overabundance of Lycra at her newest location Space Port in Paterson, New Jersey. She even managed to bring in a LIVE horse as a gift to her client into the space for the 200 screaming teenagers.   “From the very start, I understood this unique theme more than Rachel’s parents,” said Grau. “I knew exactly what Rachel wanted and I was confident that, despite the complexities, we would have a hit party!  Everyone had a great time.” The producers of "Party Mamas" are already planning to come back to the states to film another episode. With demand for Grau’s intuition and creative talents exploding both in and out of New Jersey, she’s effectively made TV her personal playground in 2010.  Party Mamas to air in the US Spring 2010 on E!

About Party Mamas
Party Mamas follows outgoing mothers as they plan over-the-top extravaganza parties for their children. Gone are the days of pin the tail on the donkey and pizza parties, now it’s time to supersize these events. Party Mamas is a jam-packed, nerve-filled, triple-latte-paced ride through the lives of outrageous and energetic mothers who pull out all the stops to throw “the best party ever for their little darlings.” This is a series where “too big” and “too much” are considered a plus.
