Ritz-Carlton Orlando, Grande Lakes Weekend

Happy Wednesday friends!

I have an extra fun post for you today! I had the amazing opportunity to stay at The Ritz-Carlton Orlando this past weekend it was the most amazing experience! I’m sharing a look at the rooms at both The Ritz-Carlton Orlando as well as the JW Marriott Orlando. I’m also sharing a look at some of their amazing restaurants and things to do at the hotels!

Friday morning I arrived and we immediately had breakfast at Highball & Harvest and it was amazing! Here’s a small look at the buffet with everything you could want and everything fresh! The fresh made donuts absolutely blew me away!

Next we shot some content at The Ritz! The capabilities they have are endless as you can see below. Whether you are celebrating a birthday, anniversary, or any special occasion they can make that moment for you extra special! The rooms are beautiful and so fresh and clean and really are just the most luxurious!

The Spa at The Ritz is so tranquil and super enjoyable as I believe it is an adult only pool and super quiet! The landscaping itself is super stunning and gives you the ultimate vacation vibes! We enjoyed delicious smoothies and snacks while lounging and enjoying the beautiful weather!

Here are some of my favorite photos from my room at the hotel in addition to some photos I got from the Royal Suite and the attention to detail and colors in these rooms are probably some of my favorite things! I especially LOVED all the photos in the rooms and how crisp everything was!

Friday evening we went to the lounge before walking over to Knife & Spoon where I ate some of the best food I’ve ever had! Everything was cooked to perfection. The textures and colors were something of art and the taste of everything was unbelievable! My top three favorite things was the Bone-In Ribeye, Potato Puree, and the King Crab “Scampi”. It will be a meal you’ll never forget!

Saturday morning we attended breakfast at Citron, again amazing food with fresh ingredients and amazing flavors! The fresh biscuits with butter and guava jam were melt in your mouth along with everything else we got to eat!

We then headed to shoot more content at the JW Marriott as well as got to see their suite that you can see below which is amazing! All my interior design dreams in one place!

Lastly that night we went to Whisper Creek Farm: The Kitchen for drinks and enjoyed some amazing food there as well!

We then headed over to Primo for dinner, again, another amazing meal and I can’t recommend enough checking them out! The atmosphere is amazing and the food was impeccable! The desserts were out of this world, I can’t describe how heavenly these were!

Overall one of the most amazing weekends I’ve ever had and am so grateful I had this opportunity! I can’t recommend The Ritz-Carlton Orlando and JW Marriott Orlando enough!

Christmas Cocktails & Dessert

Happy Wednesday friends!

Last week we did a fun event for our community and I wanted to share some of it with you! Inspire you for any parties or events you have coming up this holiday season!

We did Christmas Cocktails including hot chocolate, eggnog, and champagne . We had an assortment of things people could spike their drinks with as well as hot chocolate toppings, garnish and all the fun, festive things! We also of course had desserts to go with the fun drinks!

You can check out a reel I did of the whole set up over on my Instagram!

Happy Holidays!

All Treats No Tricks

Happy Wednesday friends!

With Halloween this weekend I wanted to share some ideas if you are hosting a party or just want some themed snacks for the day!

We hosted a All Treats No Tricks party for our apartment complex and it was a hit and I loved how it came together and want to share the snacks we did. We had a candy board with treat bags for goodies for later. We also had a pumpkin board with cheese and crackers and all that yummy stuff and used blackberries to make the face of the pumpkin. Along with a caramel apple bar (nacho style) so that they were easier to eat with all the toppings so everyone could customize their apples! Top that off with fudge, cupcakes, cookies and all the TREATS! We also had some awesome games too for everyone to enjoy, check those out below! I’m sharing some photos below as well as a reel over on my IG if you want to see how it all turned out!

I hope y’all have a great Halloween and stay safe!

Must Eats in Sarasota

This week I wanted to share a few of my must haves when it comes to visiting home! Whether you are visiting or even if you are an SRQ local these are some places to check out! So lets talk about food!

First off if you are a cheese and charcuterie lover like myself don’t sleep on Charcuterie & Cheese Sarasota! Shannon is amazing and makes the most amazing boxes and boards for any occasion! Perfect for a hotel stay, beach day, or any day really I can’t recommend her enough! She does an amazing job featuring amazing meats, cheeses, savory and sweet and this is an absolute must for me now when I visit home! It is such a treat!

Next let’s talk donuts! Who don’t love a good donut for breakfast or dessert? Sarasota has tons of amazing breakfast spots but if you’re in the mood for an amazing donut look no further because Five-O donuts are the most amazing things ever! They offer classic as well as super special donuts and I can’t recommend them enough if you want a special treat!

Third spot I want to share with you is a hidden gem, Whitney’s on Longboat Key! This one is the most picturesque restaurant ever! The colors are amazing and even if you just need a good photo head out that way but I promise you the food is a must too! They have great options for breakfast and lunch and some fun drinks also! The service is amazing and it’s a spot you don’t want to miss out on!

Let me know if you happen to check out one of my favorite spots! I would love to know what you think!
