Ryan had the coolest Chicago birthday party ever! It was a Great Gatsby themed "Bar Mitzvah" extravaganza at Venue One in the West Loop. All of the guests really dressed the part with feathers, canes, hats, and anything Gatsby you can think of! This was a night to remember with flapper girls singing and dancing, custom lighting, Gatsby graphics from Venue One, a 45 minute black light dance party, a Slow Mo Booth, and a Fotio photo booth. The guests were great and took some real fun throwback black and white photos with Fotio. This was our first time working with a Slow Mo booth in Chicago but the dynamic couldn't have worked better. The Slow Mo booth took care of the crazy jumping, mouth moving, money throwing pictures while Fotio nailed the more serious and classic photos that guests would likely use for profile pictures, sharing online, and printing. Venue One is always surprising us with their unique lighting and customizable nature. The event staff there couldn't be more accommodating and nice to clients and vendors alike - we worked with Event Coordinator Karly Fabbri who was great!

The Greaty Gatsby flapper girls looking good at Venue One! They were from Zhantra Entertainment Chicago.
We love the lighting at Venue One - Fotio looks so cool with the light reflecting on the lens! The built in lights are customizable and change to fit the mood throughout the evening seamlessly.
