Grooms and cocktails at the Fig House

Has it been that long since we posted a feature all about grooms? (This rustic groom’s shoot comes to mind.) Well, it ends now because we’ve got the deets on a cool new feature at The Fig House, a fabulous LA venue we’ve had the chance to explore a couple times (first during our ModCloth bridesmaid dress shoot). They recently unveiled an awesome new groom’s room just for the men of your event, complete with space to hang, get ready, and have a drink or two. Take a peek at the suite and its unveiling in these snaps by Ryan Haack:

Cool, right? TFH itself accommodates up to 450 people standing, or 250 seated guests, and smaller parties. Besides the groom’s room, they’ve got a bridal suite, an outdoor space, and a bunch of other rad features perfect for weddings + events of all sizes.

For the room’s inaugural celebration, cocktail experts Pharmacie mixed up some pretty amazing drinks, including The Lindbergh + The Old Fashioned. Try ’em out for yourself with the recipes below.

Gotta hand it to Twig & Twine for those florals. Can’t think of a better arrangement for an event like this!

Naturally, RoomForty took care of catering, as The Fig House was founded by RoomForty’s own Steve Fortunato.

Thanks to the team below for such a great party! We have a sneaking suspicion that more & more Fig House events are headed our way…
