moody, sultry going out fits!
nothing is complete without the afters... and if you're seeing this section of our website, you made the invite list. ;) we will start at the moody rooftop cocktail and vinyl bar, starlite, located on the 21st floor of the beacon grand hotel. we have taken care of securing a private space in the venue, from 8pm-11pm. but please note, we are asking guests to venmo mar or josh $75 along with their rsvp to support an open bar for the duration of our reservation. once it strikes 11, who knows where we might end up next, you know we love a second location...
