Celebrating 40 Years of Style, Service & Storytelling ✨

This year marks an extraordinary milestone for Colin Cowie Lifestyle — 40 years of creating beauty, elevating experiences, and setting the gold standard in how we live, entertain, and celebrate. 

Along this journey, we’ve had the privilege of sharing our philosophy through 11 books on style, weddings, entertaining, and the business of living well. Each one captures the essence of what we believe: that every moment deserves intention, every detail matters, and a life well-lived is a life beautifully designed. I remember launching my very first book at Bergdorf Goodman, on the 7th floor. Having my book featured in the window, I thought I had arrived. 

To our clients, collaborators, readers, partners, teams, and dear friends — thank you for inspiring us, trusting us, and believing in the power of possibility.

Here’s to 40 years of excellence. And to the next chapter — bolder, brighter, and more breathtaking than ever✨

Celebrating 40 Years of Purpose and Giving 🌍✨ At Colin Cowie Lifestyle, giving back has always been at the heart of what we do. For 4 decades, we’ve had the privilege of supporting organizations that uplift communities and create change — from children-at-risk and mentorship programs to art and education scholarships, HIV and cancer research, and beyond.

We’re proud to have partnered with incredible foundations including @cityharvestnyc (since 2021) @ubuntupathways (since 2012), @lalelaproject (since 2009), @americanturkishsociety (since 2019), Turning Point Foundation, @bestbuddies, @infinitefamily, The @alzassociation Imagine Benefit, Paddle for Pink, and more. Together, we’ve helped raise tens of millions of dollars for these important causes.

And yes, I’ll admit, I’m usually the first to raise my paddle for a safari or a villa in Tuscany! 🏡🦓 But more importantly, we always ensure our philanthropic partners receive favorable terms and invaluable connections.

Here’s to 40 years of creating magic with purpose, and to many more years of giving and making a difference.💫

Celebrating 40 Years of Love, Craft, and Cake 🎂✨

The wedding cake has always been one of the most powerful symbols of a celebration—often the image that graces the cover of People magazine alongside the happy couple. Over the past four decades, we’ve had the joy of collaborating with the greatest cake maestros of our time—from the Queen herself, Sylvia Weinstock @sylviaweinstock, to the King, Ron Ben-Israel @rbicakes , and Paris’s Michelin-starred Bastien Blanc-Tailleur—along with so many other extraordinary artisans.

We’ve dreamed up everything from whimsical and hand-painted creations to sculpted masterpieces adorned with delicate sugar flowers, fondant drapes, and buttercream finishes. Some designs have drawn from family Wedgwood patterns; others were inspired by the lace of a bride’s haute couture gown. One memorable bride requested a cake surrounded by flowers that never actually touched it—so we crafted a three-dimensional garland that floated around it like magic.

And yes, I even designed my own—a masculine, contemporary three-tier creation in sleek metallic grey tiles. A modern symbol of love and artistry, 40 years in the making. 💍🍰

Mini cakes were another innovation. I commissioned Sylvia Weinstock to make 400 of these miniature cakes for a wedding (scroll to the last photo). It was a first for her and a first for me, and it’s a trend that is still going strong today.

Twenty Years. Countless Memories. One Extraordinary Journey. ✨

Editing these images took me on a 20-year journey down memory lane — a true privilege to have produced so many epic, legendary, and unforgettable moments for Oprah. From her milestone 50th birthday to Quincy Jones’ 71st, Gayle King’s 50th and 70th, Sidney Poitier’s 79th, and the once-in-a-lifetime Legends Ball honoring 20 trailblazing women in arts, entertainment, and civil rights — each of the 60 legends were gifted with 10-carat diamond earrings! Who does that ?✨

We celebrated the opening of the Oprah Winfrey Leadership Academy in South Africa, rang in New Year’s Eve 2007, produced her 25th Anniversary TV finale, John Travolta’s 50th, intimate dinners for civil rights icons, and even Campfire dinner at her legendary home Promised Land in Montecito for Jeff Bezos.

Working with one of the greatest producers of all time was a master class in excellence — Oprah wasn’t only focused on what happened in front of the camera, but equally what unfolded behind it. I’ll never forget teaching her to sip tequila at John’s 50th…still her cocktail of choice today.🍸

Forever grateful for the trust, laughter, and history we created together. #LegendaryMoments #Gratitude #ColinCowieCelebrations #Oprah #CuratedByCowie #40Years ...

🍸I’ve been perfecting the art of cocktails for 40 years because every party starts with a great drink.🍸 I’ve worked with some of the most celebrated mixologists around the world including @thecocktailarchitect. More than a beverage, a well crafted cocktail or mocktail is an experience. It’s about the glass, the shape of the glass, the size of the ice cube, the time of day, and the cocktail napkin that all tell our story…and make the world a happier place. Anyone who knows me, knows I’m a purist—and that I love an exceptionally dry, ice cold vodka martini with a twist of orange in a very fabulous glass. And let’s not forget my signature 120 MPH coffee tequila shots, fueling dance floors way past their expiration dates worldwide! 💃🕺

What’s your go-to cocktail? Let me know below! 👇
