Andy Curnew throws a mean party. Last year, Curnew, a tech exec who also owns several dental clinics, rounded up Justin Bieber, a Batmobile and a tiger at his Bridle Path mansion to celebrate the engagement of his buddy Jeremy, a.k.a. Bieber’s dad.

Here’s a look inside.

It wouldn’t be a Curnew party without a few superheroes. The night’s collection included Batman:

And a dancing, eight-foot-tall robot, because why not?:

There was also a wandering troupe of chips-and-salsa servers:

And a roaming flautist:

Local drag queens Tynomi Banks, Jada Hudson and Devine Darlin (pictured with a guest) delivered a stellar, denim-heavy act:

And there was more than one smoking burlesque performance:

Neighbours Conrad Black and Barbara Amiel must have heard the racket, because they moseyed over:

Jeremy Bieber gave the mechanical bull a go (though his son, scheduled to attend, was a no-show):

Later, Bieber got inked at the onsite Ace & Sword tattoo booth:
