The Real Housewives of Miami returned for another season and the world is are getting a glimpse into the culture, the diversity, the community and to the absolute glamour that is our city. That’s why SocialMiami hosted a viewing party for the season’s wrap up – known as The Reunion – at the THesis Hotel’s rooftop spot, Mamey on 3rd. There, with a view of the sun setting and the dazzling Coral Gables skyline, guests nibbled on fresh ceviche with cilantro, croquettes and toasted cheese sandwiches fried crisp and drizzled in honey. They enjoyed glasses of Moët Chandon upon arrival and later were served crystal goblets with generous pours of Atian gin that — mixed and muddled with fruit — created the drink of the evening, “Fyah,” the show’s theme song performed by cast member Adriana de Moura.
Diamonds on the Key and company founder Christina Termine gave all guests a chance to win the $2000 pendant worn by cast member Guerdy Abraira – who made a guest appearance at the event – in Episode 5. Kristi House CEO Amanda Altman was the winner, cheered on by others in attendance who included Jennifer Diliz, Patricia and Paul Fuller, Bronwyn Miller, Angela Birdman, Dana Rhoden, Dominique Sajous Lallemand, Lesley Hernandez, Marika Colt, Cleopatra Bauduy, Heidi Danz and Cecilia Shaw.
