Last Sunday, we photographed an “Oscar Party” hosted by The Drake Hotel in Chicago. What a blast! All of the Chicago fashion set, ultra chic, came out for the event. The atmosphere of The Drake can be summed up in to two words “real Chicago”. The Drake opened their doors in 1920. A true Chicago icon, rich in history and refined service, located on The Magnificent Mile.

“Joan Rivers” was in attendance for red carpet interviews, everyone struck a pose…

The fresh cuisine was elaborately displayed, representing each particular nominated movie. Delicious, I must say. The champagne flowed as guests watched the Oscars on large screens that were randomly placed to view the show.

The event was sponsored in part by KUONI DESTINATION MANAGEMENT, and PSAV, The main décor sponsor was Ronsley, and the ice sculptures were created by Art Below Zero.
