Dinner at nFuse Kitchen + Bar, Anaheim Marriott

I had the wonderful opportunity of getting to bring together blogger babes to experience the Anaheim Marriott's recent renovation which included the creation of nFuse Kitchen + Bar. I turned this dinner into a 27th birthday extravaganza with a cactus theme (which was inspired by my trip to Arizona). I made clay cactus holders and place cards with Cassydy (she also provided the pretty cacti and succulent plants that were the center pieces and each guest got to take one home) and Jen did the calligraphy for the artwork on the walls. nFuse Kitchen + bar spoiled us with signature cocktails and an exhilarating dinner menu which I included below, as well, Stax Cookie Bar provided various flavors of ice cream sandwiches for dessert. Thank you to Shawna for capturing the evening through these photos, to Blaze PR for coordinating the dinner and to the sponsors that provided goodies to each blogger:
