Grey Goose and UrbanDaddy Welcome the Summer Season with Summer Soirée Series

Host Mandy Kellog Rye of Waiting on Martha Welcomed Guests to the Mandarin Oriental Hotel for a Night of Cocktails, Mingling and Games...

On Thursday June 25, UrbanDaddy continued the Grey Goose Summer Soirée series in Atlanta at the Mandarin Oriental Hotel. Host Mandy Kellog Rye of Waiting on Martha welcomed Atlanta’s elite to a French-summer inspired evening with cocktails and backyard games.

Attendees were greeted with a choice of six refreshing citrus-infused cocktails provided by Grey Goose and bites provided by the Mandarin Oriental hotel.  Guests socialized and played life-sized chess and Jenga, while enjoying the Mandarin’s picturesque English Garden. DJ Pat O'Brien set the mood for the evening with chilled out electronic beats while guests ordered cocktails from bartenders and waitresses wearing French-inspired blue and white stripes. To enter for a chance to win a trip to France, guests were encouraged to create their own Summer Soirée videos at the GIF booths.

Continuing the series throughout the summer, UrbanDaddy is taking the event cross-country in four other markets for the Summer Soirée Campaign: Los Angeles (7/8), Washington, DC (7/14), Chicago (7/17) and New York City (8/5). These exclusive parties will be invite-only from the sites most socially, influential subscribers as well as influencers from each city. In addition, UrbanDaddy will also host the Ultimate Soirée Contest for four fans to visit Le Logis by highlighting their Summer Soirée in 5- 15 seconds using #SummerSoiree. For more information, visit: http://soiree.urbandaddy.com/ultimate-soiree.

UrbanDaddy presents Le Melon by Grey Goose

Who's your daddy? How loose is your goose? Both questions were answered Tuesday night at the W Atlanta Buckhead. UrbanDaddy threw down a party with a never ending flow of vodka. [My kind of party!] They were presenting Atlanta with the newest, smoothest Le Melon by Grey Goose. I may have had one or two or four... but don't worry, I rode Uber.

This was one of the coolest things I've ever seen... forget the "photo booth" it's so 2013... This one allows you to record GIFs that you can email and social media to yourself and friends. 

There were four Le Melon signature cocktails and as stated earlier, I may have tried them all! But who could refuse the Melon Mule, Melon Royal, Fizz and the Southern Sip. They were accompanied by the yummiest bites ever like duck tacos and tuna tartare.

This was insane! This guy, who was truly an artist, sculpted the most amazing and exquisite designs from the melons. They were displayed throughout Whiskey Blue. Their sweet scent permeated subtly through the bar.

I think that was drink number two. You can't see it, but I have a firm grip on the Melon Royal in my right hand!

I kid you not, this was a party to remember. It was a non-stop good time from start to finish. The crowd was fun, lots of friends and familiar faces. Tuesdays will never be the same. Thanks Grey Goose!
