Our Great Gatsby

Inspired by F.S Fitzerald and its latest interpretation of  Great Gatsby movie  we created the atmosophere of his times at one special party.
What is the recipie of the ultimate Gatsby party: break all the rules of the 20ies, introduce illegal alcohol in a sophisticated way, gambling and special entertainment.
How did it work:
Beverage fountain, but do you think it is lemonade in there?

Reception drinks on arrival included "not so soft drinks" in milk bottles with some innocent labels. The guests were very excited with the "unusal" taste of the milk shakes and lemonades.
Gambling was a part of the theme with roulette table and black jack

The 20ies style tap dancers added special flavour to the whole atmosphere. Here they are - the 20ies girls in motion:

Looking through the old photographs of  flower arrangements we came up wih some 20 ies styling, introducing feathers, pearls, roses and crockery

Happy Gatsby party!

Destination - JAZZ

As Wikipedia tells us The Montreux Jazz Festival is a music festival in Switzerland, held annually in early July in Montreux on the Lake Geneva shoreline. It is the second largest annual jazz festival in the world after Canada's Montreal International Jazz Festival .
In reality a tiny Swiss village is turned into music lovers Mecca for those two weeks. Ideal time for corporate days out, meeting up with friends and having 24/7 fun with daily evening concerts, featuring various artists from classical jazz icons to Green Day and Prince.

So,the Montreux "village" looks like this

But during the festival it is like this:

Chaika Events is proud again to be the part of it, managing a group of our client's friends with kids throughout 5 days: entertainment, music, food and fun - all was included.

The most exciting part was visiting the garden party at the villa of the legendary  founder and general manager Claude Nobbs, who organised the first festival back in 1967!!

The villa is located in the heart of the Swiss Apls with the wild nature background. Meet the ideal setting for Chaika Events future parties (as agreed with the Villa managers)
