GAL PAL FRIDAY FOR TRAVEL HELP!
06.22.11
By Sheryll Alexander
Public relations gal Sophia Paliov has launched a new Gal Pal Friday “concierge” service in OC and LA for planning memorable vacations as well as assisting with personal entertaining such as dinner parties, baby showers, birthday parties, wine-and-beer pairings and even personal shopping.
Paliov has taken her years and connections as a luxury lifestyles PR professional and is bringing her expertise to the public. Yes, she uses her well-rounded skills and talents in the travel, design, food, wine and spirits industries to help busy people plan, organize, strategize and execute fabulous events. Or, she can be hired to lend a very knowledgeable hand (and palate!) with menu selections, wine pairings, food preparation, mailing invitations, purchasing groceries, setting up, decorating and even clean up duties.
For travel planning, Paliov takes on the hours-long burdens of researching destinations, seeking out flight options, booking restaurants and vetting car services and tour companies.
Gal Pal Friday, says Paliov, can also handle personal shopping, gift wrapping and deliver personally.
Got out-of-town guests coming to LA or OC, but don’t have time to plan it all? Paliov’s Gal Pal Friday “personal concierge” service can research concerts and theatre performances, sporting events and order up things like limousines and dinner reservations.

Gal Pal Friday Testimonials
With all of the excitement of having your first child nothing better speaks of Gal Pal Friday and their professionalism! Their assistance in creating unique and innovative themes, decorations and a creative menu made my baby shower even more special! I am so glad my friend who was planning my shower requested their assistance. I will definitely use them for my next party needs! -- Megan P., San Diego, CA
Gal Pal Friday assisted me in planning my engagement party, my bachelorette destination party in Santa Barbara and several birthday parties. It was so easy with GPF, I had my list of what I wanted and needed to happen and they went and purchased all the items and helped set everything up (and suggested many I didn’t think of myself) and for the bachelorette weekend, they booked all the wineries, restaurants and the perfect location hotel. It was so stress free. I have told all my friends and family about them! -- R. DeAnda, Tustin, CA
Gal Pal Friday helped me plan the perfect birthday getaway with friends to Las Vegas. I simply told them what I wanted and what my expectations were for my trip, and they handled everything from air travel, accommodations, restaurants, spa day, night life, etc. Thanks to their assistance, I never had to lift a finger. My friend’s were actually so impressed with Gal Pal Friday’s services while in Las Vegas that they now use them too when planning their trips. Thanks so much Gal Pal Friday! -- Michelle C.
