exP.Perience Til Sunset
The exP.Perience team continues to set the gold standard for premium events, and their latest affair was no exception. On Sunday, January 4, of-the-moment eatery Mezza Luna hosted Til Sunset, an elevated brunch that distilled the energy of the Weekender social series into a single afternoon.
Perfectly fusing the celebratory vibe of the new year with the sophistication of a high-end party, Til Sunset afforded the perfect segue into 2026. The fabulocracy, out in their numbers, immersed themselves in an atmosphere of pure indulgence, where Moët & Chandon flowed freely — most notably from a theatrical, tiered Champagne bustle skirt that added the requisite eclat.
Framed by lush florals curated by MSW Events, the afternoon transitioned seamlessly from Mezza Luna gourmet offerings to high-energy revellery. As the sun dipped below the horizon, DJs Gabby, Rio, and Quan amplified the rooftop energy with chart-topping hits, ensuring the first weekend of the year hit all the right notes.
