Mark your calendars for Friday, August 25, because the Village’s upcoming “En Blanc” Celebration is already the talk of the town.

And with good reason. Hosted by the award-winning Pierre’s Oceanfront Restaurant & Lounge, this soon-to-be-famous inaugural event is guaranteed to be a night we’ll all be talking about for years to come.

With flowing bottles of premium bubbly, curated culinary creations, moonlit dancing, and an open bar until midnight, you’ll be hard-pressed to tear yourself away before “Last Call.”

PierresIf you’ve never been to the legendary Pierre’s, you’re missing out on one of the most fabulous dining experiences in the Florida Keys. The August 25th event, which takes place from 5 pm – Midnight, will showcase signature hors d’oeuvres like Wagyu short rib bamboo skewers and lychee “gin” shooters, followed by a Caribbean-inspired menu that includes a full raw bar, meat and seafood paellas, and a surf and turf carving station. Artisanal desserts finish off the evening on the sweetest of notes.

Topping it off is an array of live artists, photo booths, and even a cigar-rolling station (Gatsby would love that!).

You can find Pierre’s at 81600 Overseas Highway in Islamorada. BTW: Tickets are $250 per person and are limited for this end-of-summer celebration. Be sure to snag yours soon at 305-664-3225 or email info@moradabaykeys.com.

For a real treat, book a room at the ultra-luxe Cheeca Lodge & Spa right down the street. They’re offering a special room package which includes a two-night stay and two tickets to the event, starting at just $424/night. Such a deal!
