Buenas noches Sras y Sres.

Quisiera agradecer a Dios por estar aquí.

Esta será una noche memorable ya que vamos a compartir con Ustedes un momento histórico de nuestra querida marca (Wine brand).

Votes to reclassify question as PRO/non-PRO:

Non-PRO (2): Rachael West, Yvonne Gallagher

When entering new questions, KudoZ askers are given an opportunity* to classify the difficulty of their questions as 'easy' or 'pro'. If you feel a question marked 'easy' should actually be marked 'pro', and if you have earned more than 20 KudoZ points, you can click the "Vote PRO" button to recommend that change.

How to tell the difference between "easy" and "pro" questions:

An easy question is one that any bilingual person would be able to answer correctly. (Or in the case of monolingual questions, an easy question is one that any native speaker of the language would be able to answer correctly.)

A pro question is anything else... in other words, any question that requires knowledge or skills that are specialized (even slightly).

Another way to think of the difficulty levels is this: an easy question is one that deals with everyday conversation. A pro question is anything else.

When deciding between easy and pro, err on the side of pro. Most questions will be pro.

* Note: non-member askers are not given the option of entering 'pro' questions; the only way for their questions to be classified as 'pro' is for a ProZ.com member or members to re-classify it.

You could turn the sentence around to read something like:

"And now Ingeniero ABC XYZ, the International Director of (Wine brand) will tell you all about...(whatever he is going to talk about/why the night is so special)"

agree Charles Davis : I'm with you here, Lisa; I don't think "reveal" or "unveil" quite work. You unveil a new product, but you can't unveil or reveal a special moment. PS. I'd prefer "tonight" rather than "the/this night"; "will explain why tonight is so special" is great.

agree Jenni Lukac (X) : I agree with Charles.
