"Everybody knows Guerdy in Miami,” Alexia said during the episode. “If there's an event that's being thrown here, Guerdy's the one that's doing it."

With Guerdy's keen eye for pristine decorations, you better believe she looks forward to spreading the holiday cheer in her gorgeous Florida abode, which she shares with her husband, Russell Abraira, and their two sons, Miles and Liam.

In fact, the mom of two recently chatted exclusively with BravoTV.com about how they welcome the holiday season in their home.

Guerdy Abraira explains how she decorates her home during the holidays

“As a party planner extraordinaire, I obviously have universal pieces, and we just decorate the same damn thing every year,” Guerdy explained in the interview. Guerdy continued to share that she likes to "keep it basic” when sprucing her sanctuary up for the holidays.

Sure, the Miami ‘Wife may prefer simple and chic vibes for her Christmas decorations, but she does love to get “cozy on the couch in matching pajamas” with her loved ones, which she noted is a family “tradition."

Guerdy Abraira’s tips for hosting a holiday party

During Guerdy’s conversation with BravoTV.com, she also shared her tips on hosting a successful holiday party.

Guerdy suggested having “lots of drinks, lots of great music, and lots of really cool lounge vignettes so that people can talk in groupings. She continued, “We want people to feel comfortable and to never ever leave.”

When it was time for Guerdy to give pointers on curating the perfect holiday menu for guests, the Guerdy Design owner raved about her favorite go-tos during the festive season.

“I mean, I was raised in France for nine years, so rack of lamb is everything with rosemary herbs, of course,” Guerdy said. “And then we do love a good mac and cheese and mashed potato. I do potato au gratin.”

Guerdy Abraira reveals her New Year’s resolution

Guerdy concluded our holiday chat by sharing her resolution that she plans on living by in 2024, which paid homage to Idina Menzel’s song, “Let It Go.”

"[My] New Year's resolution is to let it go," Guerdy joyfully sang. “Yes, we’re just gonna let it go on all things that no longer serve us."
