Book Now for Valentine’s Day
Lest any of us forget, some people have plenty of money to throw
around. Take Valentine’s Day, coming our way soon. . Here’s what one
four-star hotel in Chicago is offering, courtesy of a press release from
their publicist. I’ve removed her name, otherwise, the email is
word-for-word. Note, the “valentine” is assumed to be female. Any
takers?
“Do you want to make the ultimate gesture for Valentine’s Day?
Fairmont Chicago, Millennium Park Hotel is offering a package that every
starry-eyed couple will remember for a lifetime. Their $100,000
Romantic Getaway Package includes everything your heart could desire.
“Guests will be transported to and from the airport for a luxurious
2-night stay in the Presidential Suite. Upon arrival at the hotel,
guests will be welcomed with a ‘Charming Rose Petal Red Carpet’, a trail
of roses from the foyer to the bed of roses as well as six dozen roses
throughout the Presidential Suite.
“After getting nestled into the room, the couple may choose to start
the weekend with a ‘Fairy Tale Moments’ bubble-bath-for-two, which
includes Cristal Champagne and strawberries prior to a lavender-filled
bath with rose petals surrounded by romantic candlelight. After a
one-of-a-kind bubble bath, slip into cozy personalized robes and soft
slippers.
“What Chicago trip would be complete without a little retail therapy?
Guests will receive a $10,000 gift card to Saks Fifth Avenue Chicago
and a VIP personal shopping experience in their exclusive Fifth Avenue
Club. In addition to a one-of-a-kind shopping experience, your lucky
lady will receive a stunning 18 karat white diamond and sapphire
necklace from Marshall Pierce & Company. This jaw-dropping piece of
jewelry features sixty two oval cut sapphires (22.54 carats) with pave
diamond halos around each sapphire weighing at a total of 5.83 carats of
diamonds. After roaming the famous shops of Michigan Avenue, the couple
will seclude into peace and tranquility by receiving an in-room 90
minute massage-for-two.
“Guests will also receive two amazing dining experiences, one of
which is a Chef’s Table-for-Two at aria. A Breakfast Du Jour in Bed is
provided each morning as well as full use of your own private butler
throughout the entire 2-night stay. Fairmont Chicago, Millennium Park
Hotel’s One Enchanted Moment is offered at $100,000 (plus tax) and is
available February 10-14, 2012.”
P.S. The publicist at the Fairmont Chicago, Millenium Park Hotel confirms this is not a parody.
