Kicking off party season with a bang, we hosted our very first Winter Party!
Posted by Samantha Langley on 23rd Dec 2022
We hosted our very first Winter Party to wrap up the incredible year we have had here at In Your Dreams.
This was our first collaboration with canned cocktail company Shake Baby Shake, who reached out to us earlier in the year to help elevate their brand with some IYD magic. They provided us with a free flowing bar, serving their easy to serve (and drink!) canned cocktails, with a choice of five delicious drinks.
Not only did we have a complimentary bar, serving Shake Baby Shake cocktails (and non-alcoholic options, of course), but you could find Doughlicious serving their famous dessert treats - frozen ice-cream wrapped in a thick layer of cookie dough. Sounds like a sweet event, right?
It wouldn’t have been an IYD party without us bringing the IYD glam! Our talented team of beauty artists (aka the Dreamteam) were offering complimentary make-overs and hair styling throughout the night, giving our guests that added touch of IYD sparkle.
As this was our first IRL event, we wanted to ensure that our community was at the heart of it. We called on our incredibly supportive network of creatives to help host the evening! You would have found Harvey Rose, our incredible drag queen, greeting people into the venue. We had the gorgeous Kaya Azalea spinning the tunes (her first ever set btw, can you believe it?!) and Taboo Ade hyping the crowd to give THE best vogueing performances we’ve seen - straight from performing at the MOBOs might we add.
We couldn’t believe the turnout! We had attendance from incredible artists, creators, customers, our core dreamteam and some of the amazing press and brands we’ve worked with over the years, including ASOS, KOKO, Glitterbox & BuzzFeed.
And as our guests were leaving, they were able to pick up complimentary luxury gift bags, full to the brim with products! Thanks to our incredible sponsors, our dreamers left with full size skincare from Hada Labo (the super hydrator lotion is our go to, FYI) and cult unisex scent Black Tulip from fragrance brand Shay & Blue.
A personal highlight was our branded billboard outside the venue - which you might have caught our team taking 101 pictures in front of...
Thank you so much to everyone for coming along and supporting us on the night. We are so incredibly thankful to all of our amazing sponsors and community for giving us a night that we will never forget! Take a look at the footage of the night from our good friend Joe Wood..
