South Beach Baby Shower!

Mariane, a fabulous mommy-to-be (how many 8 months preggo women do you know who wear Missoni dresses and 5 inch Louboutins?), and I were so excited to plan her baby shower. After touring many venues, we decided on the uber chic Maison d'Azur at the Hotel Astor in South Beach for the big day. We did a buy out of their beautiful garden so that her party would have complete privacy during the event. The color theme was one of my favorites, Tiffany Blue and Chocolate Brown. Satin linens covered the tables and the rectangular ones were adorned with satin table runners. Lush white florals adorned each table. A white charger plate was placed in front of each place setting adorned by a folded napkin and little tiffany teddy bear inside. We brought in renowned mixologist and James Beard award nominee Elad Zvi to create some pretty incredible cocktails for the guests including some non-alcoholic ones for any ladies who were expecting. Danya Hachey from Maison d'Azure put together an amazing amuse bouche luncheon menu for the ladies to dine on as they played some hillarious baby shower games. In true South Beach style, a house dj spun the latest lounge and club hits throughout the party. The highlight of the event was the fabulous candy and sweets table and the miniature cake favors shaped like baby blocks, baby blankets, and tiffany boxes.
