On June 3, Miami tastemakers gathered for an elegant evening as Rémy Martin celebrated its This Is My City campaign at the posh Selva Lounge inside Amazónico Miami. The sophisticated affair paid tribute to the city’s rich diversity, creative energy, and entrepreneurial spirit, bringing together an effortlessly stylish crowd of artists, media personalities, fashion insiders, and influencers for one of the season’s most polished gatherings.
Set against the lush, transportive backdrop of Selva, the venue’s dramatic tropical interiors created the perfect setting for an evening that felt equal parts glamorous and intimate. The vibrant lounge buzzed with conversation as guests mingled beneath warm lighting while a soundtrack curated by Miami favorites DJ Bre and Slim City kept the atmosphere lively from start to finish. The energy was unmistakably Miami—refined, cosmopolitan, and effortlessly cool.
The evening honored Wanda Tima, founder of L’Union Media Group and its flagship platform, L’Union Suite, who was recognized as Miami’s This Is My City microgrant recipient. Through her work, Tima continues to elevate Haitian-American voices while reshaping the global narrative surrounding Haiti and its diaspora.
Hosting the celebration was BET’s All The Queen’s Men star Skyh Black, who serves as the Miami mentor for the initiative. The guest list reflected the city’s dynamic creative community, with notable attendees including model Eva Jarit, Miami R&B artist and MTV Siesta Key star Teenear, along with an impressive collection of local influencers, entrepreneurs, and cultural leaders.
Of course, no Rémy Martin celebration would be complete without exceptional cocktails. Guests enjoyed a thoughtfully curated selection featuring The Rémy Ginger, The Golden Grove, and The Noir Menta—each expertly crafted to showcase the smooth character and timeless elegance of Rémy Martin V.S.O.P. Every cocktail complemented the evening’s elevated ambiance, making the bar as much a destination as the event itself.
Beyond the impeccable cocktails and sophisticated setting, the evening celebrated purpose. This Is My City, powered by Rémy Martin V.S.O.P, is a mentorship and microgrant program supporting emerging creatives and entrepreneurs across major U.S. cities. Through funding, mentorship, and meaningful recognition, the initiative empowers the next generation of visionaries who are shaping culture within their communities.
