Overview
From Nicole Guilmartin Events
Hosted at 9OFS’s roof deck in Boston’s Financial District, these clients came ready to party. They had lots of their own ideas but were open to the suggested theme of ‘California Madmen circa 1970’s Poolside’. This retro-hip celebration was a 40th Anniversary party for past and present clients, employees and supporters - and pulled out all the stops with a ‘yacht’ rock band (DJ spinning during intermissions), lawn & table games, twinkle lights, retro-inspired food, a ‘Yearbook’ Wall honoring key people, lounge furniture, an enormous metallic bar, a Polaroid photo station, pool party-floats, and staff dressed to theme. Our amazing vendors all came through 120% to help pull this vision together in its full glory!
Guests were beyond ecstatic and truly enjoyed every detail of this incredible event. This event was all about the guests by putting the attention on the incredible culture they’d built over the years – and thanking them for being a part of it. This is my favorite type of event – great ambiance, colorful décor, good vibes – the clients came available with some fun ideas but they trusted me to create a unique experience.
My recommendation for clients considering something like this event: it’s all about having fun and celebrating the past, present and future. It’s so important for companies to pause and make sure they do that from time to time in order to make their community of supporters and staffers feel special! It’s a gift that gives back every time to the giver.
