Hip Hostess Series L.A. – Feb 5th!

categories: events, theme parties

Hip Hostess Series - LA

So… I know we just got back from Boston and I’m still working on part 2 of that recap, but our Los Angeles event is already right around the corner – next Thursday, February 5th at the new SLS Hotel at Beverly Hills!

In honor of Awards Season and the location of this event, we’re doing an “Old Hollywood Glam” theme and will be sharing tons of fun ideas for hosting your own “Red Carpet” bash at home with friends. Of course there will also be yummy food & drinks, along with a cocktail demo from Chambord’s mixologist! (Side note: Since the theme colors are red, white, & black – a lot of the decor ideas & drink recipes could easily translate for Valentine’s Day celebrations as well.)

There are 2 available time sessions: 6:30-8pm & 8:30-10pm. Registration is now open and the event is free, but space is limited, so please make sure to reserve your spot online! (Must be at least 21 to attend.)

Official invite is below…. hope to see you there!

P.S. My advice is to come a little early (or stay late) and check out the hotel – the interior was designed by Philippe Starck and is VERY unique! I just saw it for the first time this weekend and felt like I had stepped into a grown-up Alice in Wonderland.

    Karin –
    Yes – just come at the start of whichever session you signed up for or maybe a little earlier – there will be a check-in table at the entrance of the party and your name should be on the list :)

    Mimi –
    Right now we’re (tentatively) set to come to Miami in April! :)

    Just tried to register but it won’t let me select an event. Does that mean both times are full?

    I tried to register as well and had the same problem with selecting an event. Is it full? Waa!

    Robin & Tyna –

    So sorry for the hassle! They actually did shut down the rsvp list because the amount of guests for each session is already well past the max capacity of the space…. but there always is a big difference in the amount of people that sign up vs. those that actually attend – so I’m going to look into things on Monday and see if it’s possible to still add a few names to the list. Keep you posted!

    Jenn – thanks for the update. I’ll keep my fingers crossed!

    I signed up for the event last week but didn’t get a confirmation email or anything. Is there any way to tell if I’m on the list?! I don’t want to show up and be turned away!!

    Hi Niki –
    You should be fine – but if you tell me your last name and which session you signed up for I can double check for you!

    Jenn :)

    Hey there! Registered last week and haven’t heard a word. Wondering if we will receive any email about the event prior. Thanks again for doing this! See you Thursday night!

    Just read the last comment. Should have looked there first! I believe I registered for the 8:30 last name Richards. Would you mind checking for me as well?
