THE PARTY Sponsored by Dentique and Aurea MD Aesthetics, among others, Modern Luxury San Diego celebrated its Best of San Diego Issue with an end-of-summer soiree produced by Tré Panache at L’Auberge Del Mar. Food and beverage tastings, experiential pop-ups, a photo booth set against a floral wall by Flowers by Azalea and music by Dylan’s Steel Band made the night one to remember. THE PEOPLE Well-heeled guests, like George Allen, Robert Gleason and Kimberly Valentine, joined the Modern Luxury San Diego team Publisher Ken St. Pierre and Editor-in-Chief Allison Mitchell in sampling bites from L’Auberge Del Mar, Puesto Mexican Artisan Kitchen & Bar, Ranch 45, Second Nature Catering, Craft House and Swagyu Chop Shop. Beam Suntory offered its signature Fool’s Gold cocktail featuring Basil Hayden’s Kentucky bourbon whiskey while sips from GOODONYA, Melier and Urbn Leaf were also on offer. THE PINNACLE While Schubach Aviation’s chic lounge served as a posh spot for guests to relax outdoors, Saffron & Sage afforded partygoers the unique opportunity to experience vitamin shots and auricular acupuncture while One Medical San Diego taught candle-making at its interactive setup. The lively fete was the perfect kickoff to the fall social season for 200 of Modern Luxury’s closest friends
