Benvenuto a Roma!

After a stylish cocktail hour and a faux transatlantic flight, The Big Opera Party landed on the Opera House stage - transformed into a glowing Roman piazza. A dramatic skyline backdrop from Seattle Opera’s Tosca set the scene, with café-style tables and cheerful orange umbrellas adding a touch of Italian flair.

As the evening unfolded, guests enjoyed comedic moments from emcee Anita Spritzer, the drag persona of operatic tenor John Marzano. The program also featured powerful operatic performances by members of the cast of Tosca and a surprise performance by the 36-member Seattle Opera Chorus!

Throughout the night, the spirit of giving soared and attendees raised their paddles and their glasses - with over $1.1 Million raised in support of Seattle Opera’s vital programs.

Following dinner, guests boarded their return flight home and landed in a retro dance club, dancing the night away with Boots DJs spinning 45s flanked by high-energy GoGo dancers.

The celebration ended on a high note - a true finale to an unforgettable, first-class experience.

Distinguished travels, our flight to Rome is now boarding….

Pack your bags and fasten your seatbelts for Part 1 of the Big Opera Party - in Vintage Air Travel style.

The Opera Center was transformed into the Seattle Airport circa the 1960s. At check-in guests received custom boarding passes that set the tone for an evening of first class fun, before making their way to hang their coats at baggage check. The immersive journey continued in the sleek “airport lounge,” where travelers sipped Paper Plane and Cloud Nine cocktails, visited the passport photobooth, and mingled among fellow jet setters.

Rat pack style live music filled the space as tray-passed airplane snacks made their way through the crowd - playful nods to in-flight classics with an elevated twist. Costumed flight attendants and recorded announcements (in both English and Italian!) encouraged guests to make their way to the boarding “gate” and onto our simulated airplane, as they journeyed toward their final destination - Rome, Italy!

The experience was just getting started - stay tuned for Part 2 as we climb to cruising altitude…

Take flight with us to the Hyatt Regency Lake Washington, where the skies met the sea at the Alaska Airlines Legends Event!

This unforgettable evening honored 20 incredible “Legends” of Alaska Airlines - employees who have helped shape the heart and soul of Alaska Airlines.

Inspired by the recent merger with Hawaiian Airlines, the event beautifully merged iconic details from both airlines into one elegant celebration. Some guests were welcomed with their very own Hawaiian lei upon arrival and then guests made their grand entrance on a glowing LED walkway - provided by our friends at LED Solutions - that truly lit up the night and led straight into a dazzling ballroom experience!
From their own exclusive carpet moment to heartfelt award presentations, the Legends were celebrated in true style.

Congratulations to all the award winners - Tolo was honored to be part of a night filled with pride, gratitude, and so much heart. ✈️🌺✨

Come with us down the rabbit hole to the National MS Society’s Party to End MS at Fremont Studios. This Alice in Wonderland themed gala transported guests into a whimsical, high-energy wonderland. From a custom-built DJ booth suspended 10 feet in the air above a glowing Cheshire Cat (with a tail that became the dance floor!), to a dramatic transition into the Queen of Hearts Garden for the dinner and program, there were surprises at every turn. Most notably when the Queen of Hearts (emcee Taryn Daily) rewarded guests for their generosity with heart-shaped boxes of sweet treats that floated down from the ceiling on custom red rose branded trays!

We always love working with this client that loves to push boundaries and surprise and delight their guests! Congratulations to the entire team on another meaningful and magical night in support of MS Society’s powerful mission to find a cure for multiple sclerosis!

We were thrilled to partner with Jubilee Women’s Center to produce their Jubilee Jazz Night: Rhythms of Resilience at Club Sur. The event raised more than $250,000 - beating their stretch fundraising goal! - to help women access safe housing, education, and the tools to build brighter, more stable futures.

This event was packed with memorable moments and personal touches. From the soulful latin jazz by Duende Libre, the white roses that represented Jubilee’s clients, Matt Lorch’s always entertaining live auction, the delicious family-style cuban cuisine by Cafe Con Leche, and the deeply moving stories shared by Jubilee staff and supporters - it’s an evening we won’t soon forget.

We are so honored to have been chosen as Jubilee’s event production partner and look forward to growing this event for years to come.
