What should a circus-themed Halloween party sound like? For Elevate, the tenant experience program from Longfellow Real Estate Partners, we went with live brass. So Good Sessions brought West Grand Brass to two Bay Area tenant celebrations: Icona at Mission Bay on October 27 and Redwood LIFE on October 28.
The four-piece band played alongside carnival games, costumed performers, and tarot readings. As guests moved through the event, the brass gave the celebration a sound of its own. See Elevate’s Circus Spooktacular recap for a look at the afternoon.
Give the theme a sound of its own
Start with how you want the room to feel and what guests will be doing. Live brass fits a carnival where guests move between activities. An acoustic duo leaves room for conversation at a quieter reception. A DJ can take a gathering from a low-key arrival into a livelier final hour.
