Atlanta's posh posse turned out for an elegant three-night grand opening fete' in honor of Arista Spas, the new luxe medical and fitness spas within Buckhead's Astoria Condominiums. The rooftop cocktail soirees were each hosted by a different group of Atlanta notables. Arista Spas President and CEO, Sandra Anderson Baccus generously pledged 20 percent of each evenings proceeds to the charity of the hosts' choice. On Monday night, Mark Fillion and Tesa Render Wallace of Neiman Marcus co-hosted with the lovely Charlene Crusoe Ingram and the charity of choice was The High Museum of Art. Tuesday night, Cliqueatlanta.com's Tonya Ellerby played hostess alongside Saks Fifth Avenue's Edwin Reed, Mack Wilbourn and Audrey Hines, with their evenings proceeds going to Meals on Wheels. And hosts Jack Sawyer, Dr. Bill Torres, Jada Loveless and Tony Conway welcomed party-goers on Wednesday to benefit The Shepherd Center. 

Each night, guests sipped on lovely libations and fabulous Arista-tinis, thanks to spirits provided by Frank Mendez of Diageo. Monday and Tuesday night, Dennis Dean A Catering Company wowed fashionistas with fabulous finger-foods and Tony Conway's A Legendary Event thrilled guests with delicious appetizers on Wednesday. Thanks to the beautiful event production, courtesy of Designer Marie DeGeorge, Florist Nicole Kupris and Artist Janine Jackson, well attired attendees and spa aficionados enjoyed spa tours (on which they chatted excitedly about Arista's amazing FitVibe and SlimDome technologies), mingled in the rooftop garden where sheer drapes fluttered softly in the breeze and enjoyed al fresco cocktails pool-side or around the blazing fire pit.

An opening so nice - we had to have it thrice!
