How to Have the Best GNO Ever in Fort Lauderdale [Video]

There’s nothing I love more than a night out with the girls. I invited a few of my favorite peeps to join me for a fab night on the town in Fort Lauderdale.

And a video crew from Spark Studios caught the whole thing on camera. Because why not make a travel video about the ultimate GNO? Take a peek at this short clip produced by VISIT FLORIDA…

We started the night in a fabulous black stretch limo courtesy of Ambassador Limousine & Transportation and arrived to the W Fort Lauderdale in pure style.

We ordered a round of handcrafted cocktails at Whiskey Blue. This is a favorite hotspot for locals and they feature guest DJs on the weekends. Take in the view from the patio or pull up a seat at the horseshoe-shaped bar and get ready to take in the scene.

Then we dined at one of my all-time favorite restaurants: Steak 954. Check out the 15-foot aquarium, home to neon-glowing jellyfish, and enter famed restauranteur Stephen Starr’s culinary paradise. A classic steakhouse with a seafood-inspired twist, Executive Chef Jason Smith will wow you with his simple, locally-infused flavors served with a tropical flair.

And special shoutouts to these fabulous ladies: Christiana Lilly, Shayne Benowitz, Aurora Rodriguez, Ginger Harris and Shireen Brueggeman. Thanks so much for making my GNO a great one!
