Derby Day at Terranea Resort brought springtime elegance to the Southern California coast: an ice sculpture centerpiece, statement wide brimmed hats, fascinators, bright colors, and suits that made for the most stunning Kentucky Derby party outfit inspiration imaginable.

The food spread was a Kentucky Derby party idea in itself. Terranea Resort provided sliders, finger sandwiches, shrimp, horseshoe cookies, a showstopping derby cake, and mint juleps that set the tone for the entire afternoon.

The mint julep bar and whiskey shots kept the coastal luxury Kentucky Derby party energy exactly where it needed to be all day long.

A fun Kentucky Derby party activation idea is a custom cowboy hat branding booth where attendees can brand their initials.

As race time approached the energy shifted, everyone finding their seats and settling in for the main event at one of the most beautiful luxury resorts in Southern California.

DAOU Vineyards planes flew over Terranea Resort as the crowd looked to the sky.

The race began, the celebrations continued, and Derby Day at Terranea Resort proved why the Kentucky Derby is worth celebrating in the most elevated way possible.
