The Nice Guy’s aesthetic pays homage to a decadent era of Mafia bars and restaurants, where the owners and their friends can enjoy an evening together. Upon entry the vintage marble and brass bar greets you. Its size, scale and shape invite the guests to a unique social experience, encouraging conversation and camaraderie. The booths along the exterior wall command intimacy between the guests, while the larger booths flanking the room stimulate the party atmosphere throughout the night.
The Nice Guy
If you know me well, then you know that I love to throw a good party, especially for my birthday, which is on October 5th. For my 21st birthday, I had a huge party with 700 people at Mohamed Hadid’s house in Bel Air with Kaskade djing. The next year I had a jungle-themed birthday party in Hollywood where I rented out a club and had everyone dress as different animals from the jungle. The year after I did a love and peace birthday with hippie costumes, snake performers, and Afrojack djing. For my 24th birthday, I did a Burning Man theme where I completely transformed my old house into a Moroccan room with stilt men and a violinist.
This all leads me up to my 25th birthday where I rented out The Nice Guy for a Studio 54-themed birthday and had 100 friends show up and celebrate.
I worked with Hannah and Seth from Hwood Group to help my vision come to life. We started off with a dinner for 40 people and then it turned into a proper rager. I had custom cocktails made, “The Jet Set By Keir Alexa” and brought in strobe lights, a step and repeat and a photo booth.
I put together a library of photos below for you to enjoy!
