Let's get together monthly at one of New York City's fabulous restaurants to socialize, eat, drink, and discuss current literary fiction. (And maybe a classic every now and then.) No pressure, though, as the book will always be optional. That is to say that if you haven't quite gotten around to finishing (or even starting) the book you are still welcome to come!

I created this small group for women, between the ages of 25-30, who are in search of fabulous and fun friendships. Women who are light-hearted, educated, fun-loving, professional, "get up and go", beautiful individuals. If you are through with the constant club hopping and would rather have a glass of wine at a lounge after work (or a margarita), watch a comedy show, take a leisurely stroll through the city, catch a summer outdoor concert, watch an intimate live jazz session, dine out and make …

My co-worker and I realized that though we spend hours at work, we know very few people at different companies in our neighborhood. What a great way to have a drink after hours and network with various people also in the neighborhood and have a chance to meet those working from home, too!

We're Cameron and Leslie, and we think eating out is better with a crew.  A crew means there's more food to share, more characters to share it with, more stories to tell....basically, a delicious dinner with a good crew = a party! Cameron and Leslie are friends from San Diego; now we're converted New Yorkers. Cam knows more about food than anyone we know (at least he'd love to go toe-to-toe with Bourdain), and Leslie's forte is making friends with strangers (in the California way, not creepy)... …

My husband and I moved to Westchester two years ago from NYC. There, we were very actively involved with Young Professional groups, Museums, etc., but, like many others, have found it difficult to meet new people our age in Westchester. There are plenty of groups for singles or people who enjoy specific activities, but our goal is to create a general group for Professional Couples who are looking for friendship, activity partners and events around the County and Connecticut. If you are a Profess …

Think Drown at La Marina in Washington Heights. Or The Tiger's Wife at KGB Bar in the East Village. The Museum of Innocence at ilili in the Flatiron District. Or even Blood Meridian at Honk …

Hey! I'm Daa'iyah and I recently moved to the Central Jersey area from my hometown of Jersey City. Since I am new to the area I decided why not create a group here in Central Jersey that encouraged young adults to start enjoying life again by making new friends and creating lasting memories. Even though there are other female groups that cater to this notion, however I just wanted to be apart of a group that embraced variety and diversity, as it is all about creating memories. If you are a femal …

This group is for ladies in their 20's --mid 30's who are looking to make new, lasting friendships.

Why the name Ribbons and Pearls? Ribbons are girly and pearls are classy--lik …
