Glass, Mirror, Mirage

A large 14- by 12-foot ice sculpture of Russia's signature dome architecture seen on St. Basil's Cathedral and the Onion Dome served as the centerpiece of the dessert reception.

Iceculture created a candleholder and flower piece, which is a larger version of designer Hani Rashid's Alessi pencil holder.

In the cocktail reception space, ovoid ice sculpture centrepieces sat on every cocktail table. The fluid, organic shapes were inspired by the work of all three designers.

Fur blankets decorated an ice chaise from Iceculture.

Also placed outside the event's venue was an eye-catching ice sculpture of penguins. The creation of the frozen pieces during the day drew crowds.

Aiming to entertain the tweens in the crowd, Sandi R. Hoffman Special Events created an ice lounge modeled after the Icehotel in Sweden.

So Cool Events created an ice and moving-water bar for one corner of the after-party.

An enormous chunk of ice was carved into a bar with an intricate latticelike design.
