Sweet & Stylish hosted by Sandra Lee @FoodandWineAC
This event was awesome !! Each guests was greeted with flutes of Coppola Sofia Sparkling Wine – yummy !! And, the ballroom was a visual delight – hot pink ceiling ribbon drapes, low lit lanterns and lighting of pink and silver streamed around the DJ booth. The DJ was AWESOME – he was spinning groovy 70′s and catchy 80′s dance music. Everyone including the staff were dancing in place and moving their heads to the beat.
Sweet & Stylish hosted by Sandra Lee last Saturday showcased desserts from some of the most beloved Food Network Celebrity Chefs highlighted by an Atlantic City inspired fashion show designed by the talented Betsey Johnson. The event was a incredible celebration !!
