This was a party thrown by the Denver Broncos in honor of their late owner, Pat Bowlen, and cornerback Champ Bailey, to celebrate their inductions into the Pro Football Hall of Fame. Working closely with the Broncos and the Baileys’ planner, we created a fun and evolving design that perfectly blended their aesthetic tastes. As guests entered the Gervasi Vineyard Pavilion, the look was sleek and clean against the stuccoed building, until guests descended a short stone staircase into a grass-floored tent with a warm, glowing vintage-inspired vibe, and then out the back of the tent where they were greeted by a cigar concierge, bourbon bar, and twin fire pits complete with Adirondack chairs and pillows sporting the Broncos logo. The LA-based band Project M alternated sets with DJ Skee and the dance floor was instantly full. Gervasi’s chefs served up a delicious spread of savory dishes served on acrylic and chrome tables in the Pavilion and decadent desserts on antique gold shelving units in the tent.
