Vdara opened with a flurry of excitement and anticipation on Tuesday night. Vanity Fair co-hosted the event and Orlando Bloom and Rosario Dawson added their star wattage to the event. With Orlando was girl-friend Miranda Kerr and Rosario's boyfriend DJ Mathieu Schreyer was spinning at the party. On hand to celebrate were also Las Vegas notables such as Joe Brown, Jones Vargas and Robin Greenspun. Spotted in the crowd Jake Saady looking handsome and dapper and Luxury's Managing Eitor Beth Schwartz. Writer's Norm Clark and Doug Elfman were also in attendance!
Wonderful bubbly champagne was served and on hand were tasty treats to nibble on! Check out the picture of the "Champagne Girls" and the Sweet Tree! Earlier at the Ribbon Cutting Ceremony Jim Murren (Chairman & CEO MGM.Mirage) and Bobby Baldwin (President & CEO CityCenter) gave moving speeches that touched upon what CityCenter means to Las Vegas. A bright beacon of shining glass and metal that enhances the Strip and will draw what this city thrives on...our beloved tourists! Since it's conception and now the opening much attention has been directed to the fact that the resort has been awarded LEED'S Gold certification by the U.S. Green Building Council. This is important and much appreciated due to the fact that we all share the same planet and conserving our natural resources is a must!
Cheers to Vdara and YES we are ready for the heady wind of a new development that provides new energy to the Las Vegas strip!
An all-suite hotel and spa designed for those who love the excitement of Vegas but prefer to enjoy it in an exclusive, non-gaming, smoke-free environment, Vdara is physically connected to Bellagio and directly adjacent to ARIA Resort & Casino, offering access to all the amenities and energy of CityCenter while also providing a retreat from it all.
Opening today is Crystals a 500,000-square-foot retail and entertainment district.
