On April 2, influencers and event professionals gathered at Chicago’s River Roast Social House to raise an after-work glass of rosé — toasting to warmer seasons and PartySlate’s exciting new website features. PartySlate has steadily grown to become the go-to website for party hosts planning everything from weddings and corporate events to birthday parties and Bar and Bat Mitzvahs.
The “Will You Accept this Rosé?” celebration was inspired by The Bachelor franchise. Fittingly, the much-buzzed-about Bachelorette and Bachelor in Paradise break-out star, Jordan Kimball, was on hand to answer our tough questions and pose for photos galore. The event’s décor, curated by Kehoe Designs, wove the blush tones of rosé into visions of summer. Guests mingled in a luxe lounge area rich with texture with fur-covered seats, raspberry velvet stools, and a dusty rose velvet couch, all set alongside brass accents.
And what’s a rosé-themed event without a rosé fountain? Attendees dipped their glasses under flowing cascades of The Palm by Whispering Angel. Guests also sipped curated cocktails like River Roast’s French 75 featuring Big Machine Vodka while enjoying the stunning waterfront city views offered by the venue.
Attendees followed savory with sweet by indulging in Spin Spun All-Natural Confections’ cotton candy, which was shaped into roses in a nod to the Bachelor’s popular flower. At the end of the evening, guests went home with a colorful succulent from Kehoe Designs’ succulent station and rose macarons from Toni Patisserie & Cafe.
