Me, Abigail, and Pia

Saturday morning I got up to prepare for an invite to a Blogger’s Brunch at Park 75, which is located inside Four Seasons hotel in midtown. My assistant Pia and I met up and we were off.

Marsha and I

When we got to the hotel we were greeted by Ms.Marsha and Abigail who planned the event. I was eager to know what was going to go on and Marsha said, no its a surprise! I worked the room as usual as Pia started to take pics.

We then were asked to take the elevators up to the rooftop were we all got mimosas and thats when the party started lol. Chef Robert Gerstenecker introduced his self and started to show us his fresh herbal gardens and bee collection. He taught us about growing fresh herbs and how important bees were and why there has been a shortage. He then wanted us to touch and pick up some of the bee hives and I quickly moved to the back lol.

Chef Robert is a bee keeper too? Pinktastic!

It was a great learning experience but I’m too scarey to pick up bees. He said when its rainy or chilly out the bees get aggravated,um no thanks lol. Chef Robert then said he would be preparing some of our food with the things from the rooftop.

Bloody Marys

We all then went downstairs to the dining area at Park 75 and the place settings were so nice. I then noticed big tv monitors and Marsha told us that as we tweeted it would appear on the screens. That was so pinktastic.

For brunch we had,Athens Benedict,Chicken & Waffle, Wood Grilled Waygu Skirt Steak, Tempura Squash Blossom, Seared Scallop. Everything was really good and I didnt leave a drop on my plate lol.

Yummy food!

After brunch we all were invited into the kitchen area where we were served hand dipped Park 75 doughnuts, house sorbet, and other sweet bites.

I was in heaven

A Bride for All Seasons

Sunday, January 24th, 2010

Today I spent an afternoon in bridal luxury at the beautiful Four Seasons hotel located in midtown Atlanta.The Atlantan Brides Magazine and Four Seasons Hotel teamed up to bring this annual event back.As I exited off the elevator, I turned the corner and all I saw was beauty! They transformed their grand ballroom into something spectacular!

I was in total amazement as I looked at all the different vendors and wedding decor. I wanted to get married all over again lol. We were greeted with champagne flutes as we listened to Alex Riddick play the piano. I chatted with a newly engaged couple and the fiance said, “this is a great place and I’m so glad I tagged along”. The couple came to get some inspiration because their wedding is in September.

Mayors Jewelry

In different parts of the room were four different event planners that put together great ideas for wedding decor. The theme was Four Seasons. A Legendary Event Design and Decor did an exquisite summer wedding style with fresh lemons. I loved this decor and the details were very well thought out, it was very whimsical, I adored this look.

I got a chance to chat with Tony and he told me he absolutely loves what he is doing! He said he did his first wedding at 14! Can you believe that,wow! All the event planners did a Pinktastic job, I must say!
