“My birthday dinner was nothing short of perfect. ♥️ An evening surrounded by my closest friends, celebrating another beautiful year of life exactly the way I wanted. A table filled with all my favourite things 😍 caviar, champagne, and an exquisite six-course tasting menu by Chef Kelly. Every course felt like a love letter to French cuisine, from the foie gras and delicate truffle pasta to the perfectly cooked Wagyu. Absolute perfection.”

She continued,

“The effortlessly elegant tablescape by @nono_events was everything I imagined beautiful, understated, and timeless. And then there was the laughter, the music, the dancing, and the overwhelming love from the women who continue to hold me up and celebrate me so wholeheartedly. I truly couldn’t have asked for a more perfect evening. My heart is so full. Dress: @sihle_the_designer.”
