Guests were treated to a special advance screening of the series’ romantic finale episode, set in the beautiful vineyard region of Spain, followed by a cocktail reception with Parisian flair. Attendees toasted the series with French-inspired specialty cocktails while enjoying hors d’oeuvres and custom cookies.
I am guessing my invitation was lost in the mail.
