Triple Threat

We’re always excited to be a part of somebody’s birthday, knowing that our services help contribute to the important day.  The balloons, cake, singing, and presents give us that joy as though we were 7 years old and finally getting that party we always dreamed of.  Now, imagine that feeling with three different birthday men/women.

Back in October, we were privileged enough to be part of a triple-birthday celebration.  With over 900 people in attendance, this was an event to remember.  Set outside in the beautiful Southern California air, guests wined and dined into the early hours of the morning.  Dancing, drinking and eating for hours, this was a party for the books!

See you at the dinner table,

A Cartier Christmas Story

Every year, countless men and women wait for the holiday season to find that one special gift under the Christmas tree; that small and seemingly insignificant box that, when finally unwrapped, brings joy, beauty, and a happiness that only a truly special piece can provide.

This past December, we were lucky enough to cater the fabulous Cartier Christmas party on Rodeo Drive in Beverly Hills.  The store, crowned with bright lights and ornamented with the signature scarlet and gold made famous by the luxury brand, invited their most loyal and eager clients to thank and celebrate the upcoming holiday.  With seasonal music filling the space, and the excited chatter of the invited guests, the scene was set for the merriest of evenings.

The menu itself boasted an impressive array of delicacies for all the attendants to enjoy.  Decadent appetizers such as toasted brioche crisps topped with crème fraiche and Oscietra Caviar along with wonton cups filled with lobster, pineapple, jalapeno, and a coriander aioli were passed to the awaiting guests, while the full bar boasted champagne, and three specialty cocktails: the Winter Wonderland, Santa’s Cap, and the Cartier Blush.  A dessert station, filled with cream puffs and brownies, paired perfectly with a make-you-own hot chocolate station.  And to top it all of, a Cartier store replica gingerbread house stole the show.

We are so thankful to work with such a fantastic team and continue to look forward to working with Cartier again in the future.
