When LA Reid threw a summer wedding reception for Mariah Carey and Nick Cannon at his Sagaponack estate last week, no expense was spared to make guests like Mary J. Blige, Gwyneth Paltrow, Kelly Ripa and LL Cool J happy. The luxury applied to the menu as well, which was catered by celebrity party planner Andrea Correale, owner of Elegant Affairs, based in Glen Cove and Manhattan.

“It was a beautiful summer night,” says Correale, “everyone enjoyed themselves.” The menu included treats like Amagansett lobster rolls, Kobe beef, a gourmet pizza grill and a New York steakhouse grill.

On Aug. 23, Elegant Affairs will once again be catering a grand soiree, this time at Stone Meadow Farm, the East Hampton estate that Carey and Cannon had recently rented while they were in town.

Hundreds of guests, including Tory Burch, Aretha Franklin and Russell Simmons are expected to attend the celebration of the 125th anniversary of the Suffolk County Chapter of the American Red Cross. The event is hosted by WABC-TV's Ken Rosato. Tickets are $250 each ($300 at the door). To RSVP call (631) 924-6700 from 9am - 4pm or email your request to Suffolk@crossnet.org.

Stone Meadow Farm is on the market for $19.995 million, listed with Gary DePersia of The Corcoran Group. The main house features 10 bedrooms and 18,000 square feet of living space. There are also two separate guests cottages, spa, tennis courts, gunite pool, and a stable that accommodates five horses.
