Event Entrances/Photo Ops

Guests could pose for photographs in a sleigh at the entrance.

Servers greeted guests at the entrance with mistletoe shots, made with peppermint schnapps and pomegranate juice.

Pallattella created different spaces within the party. One room, separated from the dance floor and bar, was lined with a table, chairs, and lit Christmas trees.

White garden gnomes and red tinsel trees sat throughout the candy room, where red and white op art posters covered the walls.

Rembac utilized the driveway of the house to set up a step-and-repeat, created with hedges that aligned with the event's garden party atmosphere. Signs hung on the hedges displayed the company logo as well as the event hashtag, #SterlingTurnsTen, which Rembac promoted among invitees prior to the party resulting in 75 posts—a satisfying number for the boutique firm.

In lieu of a traditional step-and-repeat, Kehoe designed a large floral sculpture supported by three wire framing panels; a hand-painted mural served as the backdrop. Elsewhere, Kehoe utilized the models and greeters as an additional branding opportunity with temporary tattoos on their bodies.

Multiple unique lounge groupings offered guests respite from the stage and dance floor. Oversize floral arrangements matching the step-and-repeat installation adorned the vignettes and added to the immersive experience of the event that Kehoe sought to deliver.

For a private holiday party, held at 26 Bridge in December 2014, New York-based event firm Rock Paper Scissors Events created a winter wonderland with a ski-lodge-type lounge, a snow machine, and a "forest" of hanging ornaments filled with chocolate truffle favors.
