Our grand opening celebration on Berkeley’s 4th Street was a dream come true. From the moment our doors opened, the evening unfolded as a sophisticated affair filled with thoughtful details, delicious bites, and an undeniable sense of joy and connection. After months of preparation, it was an absolute pleasure to welcome friends, family and new faces into our new space that embodies everything we love about design, creativity and community.
Grand Opening Celebration: Our Swanky Soirée on 4th Street
A Celebration Designed with Intention
Our new 4th Street shop was dressed to impress for its debut. With tables draped in flowing linens and glassware adorned with ribbon accents, this party was brimming with posh vintage charm. The overall design was intentionally cohesive yet not overdone: an effortless blend of class and comfort that made the evening feel both grand and intimate.
The whimsical champagne presentation stole the show: topped off with a graceful bow around the stem, each flute was adorned with a delicate puff of cotton candy which dissolved into bubbly clouds while sipping. It was the perfect touch of playfulness amidst the swankiness of the evening. Our hors d’oeuvres spread was just as delightful, with an array of small bites that were as beautiful as they were delicious. From heavenly brioche swirls to perfectly-sized pavlova bites (topped with candied blueberries and silver leaf *chef’s kiss*), we couldn’t be happier with how this spread turned out from our friends at the renowned Tartes de Feybesse.
The palette we chose was a study in muted hues and bold textures, setting a tone of demure charm. We couldn’t get enough of the stunning balloon installation created by our other good friends at Jess Poppin. Blending the perfect union of soft tones with an edgy metallic punch, these balloons framed the space and served as the perfect backdrop for festive photos throughout the night.
