Welcome to the First Response Tennis Club and First Response Suite, where the cocktails were flowing—and so were the good vibes. After all, a night out with the girls almost always guarantees a ton of fun, but when you add a shared interest in tennis and the chance to enjoy a special experience together for the first time, connection—and friendship—comes easy. So are plenty of memorable moments.

Case in point: The electric atmosphere of the evening, but also having a space infused with plenty of thoughtful details to take it all in together. At the First Response Tennis Club, there was a fashion illustrator documenting all the cute ‘fits, a permanent jewelry station and stunning floral displays. But mostly, it was an oasis to kick back and prioritize friendship in the midst of a highly anticipated night.

With First Response by your side, it’s easy to prioritize your goals, dreams and timing when it comes to all the ambitions you want to pursue. Their best-selling pregnancy test is 99 percent accurate from the day of your expected period and delivers results in just three minutes. In other words, it’s reliable and leaves you feeling confident, much like the “big sister” in your life that shows up right when you need her most.

Shared experiences cement the best of friendships, right? That’s why having the chance to gather was the perfect precursor to a night taking in match after match. But it was also a reminder to lean on each other and celebrate life’s firsts together, no regrets.

It’s true: The theme of the night was all about “firsts,” but it was also about friendship and creating a chill environment to pre-game and connect. Guests included Nia Sioux, Maggie Thurmon, Madison Haschak and Margaret Kovalcin (among many more).

More than anything, it was a night to remember. And one that celebrated quite a few “firsts”.
