The DJ’s music could be heard as soon as the valet opened your car door, and the red backlighting that Kelly Roche staged throughout the house spilled out from the open, double doors. Inside, partiers mingled at the open bar while several waited their turn at a Saki bomb from the huge Buddha ice sculpture luge (pictures deleted due to content:).
