EVENTÔIR hosted a luxury gala dinner in Amsterdam, for a venture capital firm. It was a 2-day event with a dinner and a hybrid meeting for 100 guests. For this special occasion, we thought of a theme to match the venue and came up with the Golden Age theme for styling and entertainment.
This gala dinner in Amsterdam took place at the legendary Sofitel Legend The Grand Amsterdam. The hotel is inside a beautiful building from the 17th century. Also, With high ceilings, white marble floors, and picturesque secluded courtyards, It’s a place of elegance and style!
When we organized the gala dinner in the Council Chamber, a venue where H.R.H. Princess Beatrix of the Netherlands got married 55 years ago. Moreover, Our guests loved the hotel’s monumental interiors with warm colours that create a contemporary vibe and blended nicely with the brand colours.
The event started around 6:30 pm, and the aperitif was served in the Admiralty Room. The VIP guests of this evening were not only from the Netherlands, but from diverse countries of the globe. This meant that we had to come up with something special and unique for this event.
Also, We tailor-made a Rembrandt wall, which looked like a wall full of paintings you would see in a museum. The actor in front of this wall contributed to making the whole experience interactive. One of the highlights for our guests was how the paintings would open up and a hand would come out from the painting with a glass of champagne.
We also had a piano/cocktail bar. On one side of the piano, there was a pianist and a singer. On the other side, the guests could get an artisan cocktail with a blue or orange accent to reflect the client’s brand colours.
After the aperitif, it was time to lead the guests to the legendary Council Chamber. So, we thought of a unique idea! “Chandleladies” in golden dresses (reflecting the Golden Age of Amsterdam) would lead the guests through the beautiful courtyard to the dining room and place the guests at their dining table.
