Veuve Clicquot in the Snow: A Ski Apres Party to Remember
As the snow fell gently outside, we transformed our home into a chic winter wonderland for our Veuve Clicquot in the Snow ski après party. The evening was everything we envisioned: an unforgettable night of champagne, comfort food, and cozy yet elegant vibes shared with 85 of our closest friends. Here's how we made it happen:
A Warm Welcome with a Ski Lift Pass
Guests were greeted at the door with their custom ski lift pass, setting the tone for the night—a whimsical blend of mountain chic and pure elegance. From the moment they stepped inside, the house was awash in vibrant hues of Veuve Clicquot orange, yellow, and a beautiful winter blue.
The Ultimate Ski Chalet Vibes
Every room was meticulously decorated to reflect the luxurious yet playful theme. In the hallway, we built a gondola ski scene that became a favorite photo spot for guests. On the front porch, we created a cozy igloo where guests could sip cocktails, warm up, and enjoy heartfelt conversations under twinkling lights. It was the perfect setting to enjoy the crisp winter air without braving the chill.
Comfort Food with a Luxe Twist
The menu was a fan-favorite combination of indulgent comfort foods:
Chick-fil-A is Always a crowd-pleaser, perfectly complementing the laid-back ski vibes.
TK’s Famous Mac and Cheese is Creamy, cheesy, and irresistible.
My Signature Penne Alla Vodka is A dish that always brings people back for seconds (and thirds!).
Desserts Galore: A selection of decadent treats to satisfy every sweet tooth, ensuring the night ended on a sugary high note.
We passed the food around each room, ensuring everyone could mingle and enjoy every delicious bite.
Signature Cocktails & Endless Champagne
Of course, the champagne was the night star, with Veuve Clicquot flowing freely. To elevate the experience, we had a talented bartender crafting three special cocktails inspired by the theme:
1. Snowy Spritz: A refreshing blend of Veuve, elderflower, and a splash of citrus.
2. Mountain Mule: A winter twist on the classic Moscow Mule with a hint of cranberry.
3. Golden Gondola – A rich, warming bourbon-based cocktail with orange bitters and a touch of honey.
The sound of popping champagne bottles was the soundtrack of the evening, along with the Veuve Clicquot in the Snow playlist on Spotify, perfectly paired with laughter and cheer.
The Perfect Ski Style
Our guests fully embraced the theme, arriving in their most fabulous ski après outfits. From sleek ski jackets to cozy yet glamorous sweaters, the fashion added an extra layer of fun and sophistication to the evening.
A Celebration of Friendship and the New Year
As we mingled with our friends, raising glasses of Veuve and savoring delicious bites, it became clear this night was about more than just the details. It celebrated friendship and laughter and kicked off 2025 in style. The warmth of the evening wasn’t just from the igloo heaters or cozy decor but from the love and connection shared in every room.
The night ended with hugs, cheers, and promises to do it all again soon. Did someone say Derby 2025? Here’s to more unforgettable nights and the beautiful friendships that make them special!
