A Magazine Launch Party at the WaterFire Arts Center Bliss Bash 2019

Last month we had the pleasure of catering Bliss Bash, a magazine launch party for the 2019 edition of the annual BLISS Celebrations Guide. We hosted 175 guests from the wedding and event industry at the WaterFire Arts Center (one of Russell Morin’s exclusive venues!), for a spectacular night of networking and celebration. We pulled out all the stops with exciting new menu items from our chefs, and festive beverage details like a champagne wall to welcome guests, and a cocktail bar within a vintage Airstream.

This amazing venue is 37,000 square feet, with industrial and modern elements, and impressive floor to ceiling windows. We love it for its versatility — the open floor plan can accommodate 1,200 guests for a reception, but with thoughtful sectioning and configuration, our team made it feel intimate for BLISS Celebration's 175 guests.

Scroll down to check out the delicious menu our chefs put together, and photos of how we helped bring this amazing space to life for the party!
