Former Miami Dolphins football player, Louis Oliver, served as Master of Ceremonies. The all day affair began with a golf tournament with celebrity golfer's, including Brett Quickley, Nicholas Thompson, and Alexis Thompson.
A mid-day luncheon featured the designs of Teso Furs, making its debut in South Florida. The collection was complemented by the jewels of de Grisogono. Medici Spa sponsored seminars and complimentary beauty and skin treatments.
Next was an afternoon "Bubble Hour" reception with Veuve Cliquot champagne. Showcased were the diamonds of Leo Pizzo on models premiering the Vicky Moreinis swimwear collection. Meanwhile, male models paraded in the Nautica Spring Collection accessorized with U-Boat Timepieces. Miami's DJ Irie did the spinning.
