Our Signature Ice Offerings in Kendall
Custom Ice Sculptures
Every celebration deserves a showpiece. From romantic swans, palm trees, and floral motifs to corporate logos or university crests, our ice sculptures elevate Kendall events. At Fairchild Tropical Botanic Garden weddings, sculptures glisten among orchids and fairy lights, adding an ethereal glow to the tropical backdrop.
Ice Bars
Ice bars are one of our most requested features in Kendall. Featuring etched sponsor panels, embedded bottles, and LED illumination, our bars are both functional and beautiful. They’re perfect for Miccosukee Country Club receptions, Baptist Health galas, and university fundraisers that want a blend of elegance and interaction.
Ice Luges
A favorite in South Florida nightlife, luges turn drinks into experiences. From martini luges shaped like palm fronds to tequila luges for outdoor parties, they add energy and fun to any event. At private estate celebrations in The Crossings or Pinecrest, luges are always the centerpiece of the bar.
Mini Ice Showpieces
Mini sculptures are Kendall’s favorite centerpiece alternative — elegant, customizable, and eco-friendly. Whether it’s a donor dinner for Baptist Health, a faculty celebration at Miami-Dade College, or a family milestone, mini sculptures add instant sophistication to every table.
Seafood Displays
In a city that loves fresh flavors, our carved seafood towers and trays are a must-have for weddings, galas, and hotel receptions. We keep shrimp, oysters, and lobster perfectly chilled — and sculpted displays ensure they look as good as they taste. At Miccosukee Country Club or Fairchild receptions, seafood on ice always steals the show.
Branded Ice Cubes
In a city full of professionals, entrepreneurs, and corporate events, branded cubes are the ultimate subtle statement. We freeze full-color logos or initials into crystal-clear cubes — perfect for networking receptions, sponsor events, or luxury weddings.
Dry Ice & Block Ice
We also deliver dry ice for fog, cocktails, and catering as well as block ice for cooling and carving. Whether for restaurants, caterers, or hotel kitchens, Kendall’s hospitality professionals rely on us for consistent quality and punctual delivery.
