How to turn a concert venue into a Speakeasy!
Here is an opulent art-deco speakeasy theme at Showbox Sodo here in Seattle. Guests entered through a traditional “backdoor-hidden” archway with authentic old whiskey bottles and barrels.
Once inside, the main stage was decked out in Egyptian flair with teal and metallic gold drapery against a vintage backdrop. Large cream columns were set to each side, each topped with teal & gold bands and large gilded palm leaves bursting from the tops!
The intimate Deco Dance Lounge was raised on a platform and detailed in hues of copper and tiffany blue with iridescent sheep drapery, vintage Persian rugs, decorative throw pillows, decadent wainscoting, and touches of orchids.
Enveloped in velvet, VIP guests enjoyed lounging on vintage furniture under a canopy of striped sheer burgundy and black satin drapery. Underfoot, a vintage Persian carpet added elegance along with live palm trees, antique steamer trunks as cocktail tables, and a mahogany sofa table for old world charm.
To complete the speakeasy theme, a jail photo-op was on display to rile-up guests!
Every piece of decor for this event came strait from our warehouse and was expertly assembled by our creative production team.

How-To: Matching Your Event To Your Branding
These days, graphic design and event design have a marriage with each-other that is stronger than ever. When a group sends out invites or launches a website for their event, it only adds to the experience when the actual event matches seamlessly to established materials. It makes the presenting group look composed and consistent.
Here is an example of a diamond themed New Year’s affair that launched their website early for ticket-buyers. Their branding was modern and glamorous in dark purples and blues. When designing the event, dramatic lighting was a must, and choosing décor that shinned in the lighting was essential. We designed with silver glitter trees (that shine beautifully in event lighting) and diamond beaded drapery accent walls.
