NIGHTLIGHT: Creative Edge Parties Hosts a FABULOUS Soiree in Rockefeller Center

If she could narrow her diet down to just two items, Peachy Deegan would eat only lobster macaroni and cheese by Creative Edge Parties and drink champagne for the rest of her life! Last night the lobster macaroni and cheese was SO good, she dreamed about it...with her head upon the lovely Brookstone pillow of course!

Held at Tishman Speyer's rooftop in Rockefeller Center, eyelevel with Saks on the 7th floor garden, and inside as well, Creative Edge Parties hosted a private event on June 30th for their top associates in the Manhattan business world including many prestigious fashion brands as well as other business powerhouses.

Mover and Shaker Carla Ruben was a gracious host and decorated the venue to match Peachy Deegan's oh-so-yellow Donna Ricco dress-which was purely a coincidence. Another Mover and Shaker spotted at the soiree was the stunningly fabulous Courtney Moss (also famous as Head of Minks) and surely you Whom You Know readers will be meeting other Movers and Shakers to be featured in the future that Peachy met last night.

Cordial David Bocognano of Creative Edge Parties greeted guests as they entered the Rockefeller Center complex, one of the loveliest venues in Manhattan. Cocktail hour was both inside and outside as the weather luckily broke, and the dinner served consisted of even more lobster, much to Peachy's delight! We started with Sweet Corn Chowder with Maine Lobster and Asparagus, which was followed by Lemon-Thyme Baked Branzini (Tomato Tatin, Black Olive Marjoram Ragout, Puree of Cannelini Beans). To top it off, Creative Edge Parties accentuated the evening with Coconut Tapioca and Citrus Parfait.

Notable guests included:
Carol Brodie of Carol Brodie & Co.
Linda Gaunt of Linda Gaunt Communications
Jason Cohen of the O Group
Simon Weston of Bamboo London
Molly Middleton of Molly Middleton Events
Terrance of Vanity Fair (and a Yalie)
Loulie B. Walker of Loulie Walker Events, Inc.
Brook Harkavy Hernandez of Tishman Speyer
Julie Greenbaum, Lindsay Rosen, and Kiersten J. Cunningham of Sidley Austin
Rebecca Crumley of The Knot

"As you know from my past features, Peachy Deegan and I were in the same class at Boston College prior to either of us becoming entrepreneurs. When we played together on the BC Alumni softball team in Central Park years ago, she mentioned she could not find a great dentist in Manhattan and could often be found networking on her phone in the outfield hiding from the ball. She was my second patient ever in 2006 when I opened my dental practice; I was one of the first sponsors on Whom You Know and the first Mover and Shaker featured in 2009 and have worked with her continuously since. She's even talked her friends that are doctors into being my patients, and they subsequently send their hospital colleagues. I don't know anyone that is as great of a networker and writer as Peachy, nevermind that she is upstanding and always good for her word. Cosmopolitan Dental is so happy to be in the company of the caliber of major brands she works with today, and although she will tell you a million ways to get your teeth dirty between Peachy's Picks, Terrific Takeout and Peachy's Pantry, Peachy Deegan will tell you there is only one way to get your teeth clean!"
