2015 came to Chicago with a bang. Not to sound overtly cliche, but Siena Tavern, located at 51 W. Kinzie in Chicago's trendy River North neighborhood, delivered more than a NYE soiree. It brought elegance, style, hospitality, and craft-cocktails to a new level. The NYE rendezvous, which began promptly at 9pm, attracted some of Chicago's most notable individuals from the finance, fashion, and business sectors as well as out-of-towners who wanted to celebrate the beginning of a new year with our very own who's who.

2015 came to Chicago with a bang. Not to sound overtly cliche, but Siena Tavern, located at 51 W. Kinzie in Chicago's trendy River North neighborhood, delivered more than a NYE soiree. It brought elegance, style, hospitality, and craft-cocktails to a new level. The NYE rendezvous, which began promptly at 9pm, attracted some of Chicago's most notable individuals from the finance, fashion, and business sectors as well as out-of-towners who wanted to celebrate the beginning of a new year with our very own who's who.
Party-goers were treated to a full-night of open bar with premium elixir selections, including Grey Goose Vodka, as well as free-flowing champagne for our upwardly-mobile friends to savor while mingling with a posh, insider crowd.
Whether you wanted a whiskey sour or indulged in a savory cocktail with Grey Goose Vodka, the options for delight were limitless as Siena Tavern constantly made it a point to ensure guests were partying like it was 2015.
This holiday couple was all smiles as they sipped on their savour bonne cocktails and made new friends on New Year's Eve.
Friends, both old and new, gathered to celebrate one of the most important holidays of the year at one of Chicago's hottest venues.
VIP guests were invited to their personal booths, generous amounts of mixers and gastronomy delights, along with Grey Goose Vodka to keep the night bumpin;.
The only challenge guests encountered NYE was deciding which type of elixir to choose from.
As one of these fabulous young ladies put it, "New Year's is a time to mingle with your friends but also drink a good cocktail because it's the beginning of something special, a new you for the new year."
Fashionistas from both coasts couldn't miss the stylish happenings at Siena Tavern. "We wanted a great cocktail but also an opportunity to welcome the new year with some of the closest people to us."
By the time the new year had arrived, guests were more than ready to toast to new opportunities, new friends, and a new set of experiences to come.
While champagne was definitely a favorite for the toast, guest continued to indulge in Grey Goose craft cocktails, a whiskey double, and a tequila sunrise, or two. Props to the wonderful staff at Siena Tavern for their diligence and awesome attitude throughout the entire night.
If you missed this year's affair at one of Chicago's hottest industry-insider spot, don't panic: they offer plenty of fun throughout the regular season. In 2015, we expect some momentous avenues to continue opening up for Siena Tavern. One of the hottest places to be this past NYE, we anticipate some high-profile developments with some of Chicago's finest ladies (and gents). Happy New Year to everyone at Siena Tavern. We look forward to next year's soiree.
