They were Walking in a Winter Wonderland at the annual member’s soiree at Meadowood Napa Valley.

A two-day installation created the magic with a 40’ x 90’ main tent and 30’x40’ entrance/greeting tent, both with clear walls for all four sides.

Classic provided all flooring, tenting, tent swagging, and furnishings. Chairs provided by Chameleon, elegant Silver “X” backs with white optical suede cushions. Chandeliers by Twilight Design.

And to capture the ambiance of a perfect wintry look: ice blue lighting gels behind the liner in the ceiling and wall pole uplighting, Ice Blue satin ceiling and wall pole fabric swag, white carpet, white dance floor, and Dazzle Pale Blue linens.

The lounge area in the Vintner’s Room was made ever so cozy with Designer8* Princeton leather furniture by the fireplace.

What happens at Rob’s Club …

Classic San Francisco’s Gwen Ortiz collaborated with an Alamo, CA hostess throwing a 50th birthday bash for her husband and 99 of their closest friends. The client wanted to create the atmosphere of a “private club” … Rob’s Club. 

Guests entered the “club” through a 10′ x 40′ clear entrance canopy installed in a breezeway, featuring Topaz Pewter drapery and red carpet. This led into a 50′ x 80′ tent with 10′ x 80′ and 15′ x 25′ connectors. All tents were clear tops with clear walls, and raised to include two existing 12′ trees.

The ceiling was partially swagged with Clay colored fabric, and wall poles were covered in the same shade. Classic created two Topaz Pewter drum chandeliers to flank the white dance floor. 

The Classic lighting team created the perfect ambiance by back lighting the ceiling drape and placing fun gobos on the dance floor.

The furniture was Designer*8 in white leather and black suede. Caterer Barbara Llewellyn brought in kiosk tables and linen and florals; other décor elements were brought in by the property’s staff.

Classic San Francisco provided the tenting along with rich burgundy and white custom ceiling draping, valances and wall drapes.

Also a focal point, a custom 10′ x 22′ chuppah out of truss and covered in fabric. 

Designer 8 lounge furniture provided by Classic.

Wildflower Linens provided the lovely fabric as well as the linens and chair covers.
