Insider Tip: Give advance time to get the wrinkles out of the backdrop. We found using an iron on low heat with a piece of cloth or a towel between the two prevents melting.

EVENT #2 GRAB & GO: Luxurious On-The-Go

Set up a beautifully decorated grab-n-go station with an emerald and gold theme. Enhance the experience with a photo backdrop and encourage residents to dress up for the occasion and snap a picture. This effortless yet sophisticated alternative delivers all the glamour of an in-person soirée—without the large-scale planning!

Mini charcuterie cups or gold-wrapped chocolates.
