Tom Cruise & Katie Holmes Host A-List Housewarming Party
Tom Cruise and Katie Holmes opened the doors of their new Beverly Hills mansion for an A-list housewarming party Saturday night.
The couple's celebrity friends Oprah Winfrey, Jennifer Lopez, Brooke Shields, Victoria Beckham, Eva Longoria Parker and Kyra Sedgwick were among the guests.
Holmes' extended family – including her parents – came in from Ohio for the event and children Isabella, 15, Connor, 13, and Suri, 2, were there.
Cruise and Holmes purchased the 1.3-acre $35 million estate last summer and spent a year on renovations.
Guests – mostly in black cocktail attire – began arriving around 9 p.m. They were driven up the long driveway to a large fountain by a valet service.
The party was both indoors and outdoors. Over 50 staff members from Wolfgang Puck catered the event, which ended around 1 a.m.
On the back lawn, cocktails and appetizers were served to guests who sat on white couches under heat lamps. The trees were adorned with white lights and an orchestra played music.
Tobey Mcguire (Holmes' co-star in 2000's Wonder Boys), Winfrey's BFF Gayle King, Rita Wilson, Jeremy Piven and Kirstie Alley also attended.
Shields arrived with husband Chris Henchy. The party was held on her 43rd birthday.
Holmes will make her debut on Broadway this fall in All My Sons.
