We had a blast last night at the Stirling Club (Turnberry Place) for a “Halloween” party. Could they possibly have done more? I have been to plenty of parties but this one was over the top! From start to finish (and yes I stayed for Wayne Newton) it was a ton of fun. I was actually scared on the way in by a huge hairy werwolf and other ghostly figures. The decor was fantastic and elaborate with such attention to detail they must have bought out Party City or the local warehouse for event rentals. I have never seen that many blinged out skulls, spiderwebs, and moving wall images, except at Disneyland or Universal Studios. Did I mention photo booths? I think there was a state of the art photo booth in every room throughout the Stirling Club. They handed you a flyer upon entry so you would not miss a thing. Check it out…

Spirits lounge (full bar with specialty cocktails) and Elvis Lederer (Tekno Flamenko Artist), main dining room with a live piano player, wine room with RACLETTE (whatever that is, some kind of super smelly cheese that is not on my diet but looked great…),

Veranda room with spiked coffee, hot chocolate, adorable dessert bar, a gross, disgusting massacre meat station, and a Cigar lounge featuring 12 and 15 year Macallan and prosciutto di parma station (what? did I miss this????)

Stirling room with live performances by Every Woman band, DJ Steve Weaver (see photos of this guy, he was fantastic so I got his card), and yes, you won’t believe this, WAYNE NEWTON!!!

My husband had to go home but of course I stayed for WAYNE NEWTON, who was “in the house” but late. I am sure he was with VIP’s that did not include us. Actually, he was great and for this traditional Turnberry crowd (you will see what I mean in the photos…) it was a blast to see him and well worth the headache this morning! I have to mention that there was intense competition for the best costumes. I think some folks went home so upset or angry when they did not win because they spent hours and a small fortune on those amazing costumes (including the small scary children who I heard were paid actors). Like I said, could they possibly have done more? NO!
