Philadelphia doesn't need much help setting a mood — but we brought some anyway.
WM Events designed and produced a reception that leaned all the way into the city's history (and American's 250th birthday). Declaration of Independence centerpieces, brass candlesticks, a live fife and drum corps, Betsy Ross and Ben Franklin characters mingling with guests, a watercolor artist illustrating Philadelphia history tableside. But our modern colonial spin added a few surprises through the night, like an AI photobooth to turn guests into Founding Fathers and a string quartet playing alongside a fabulous DJ. Every detail intentional, every moment considered.
Our role? Make this party in the birthplace of America the part of the trip nobody stops talking about.
