Our vision for our guests is to make them feel as though they have just e entered the streets of New York City. Guests will enter Festival and feel as though they just got off the Metro in NYC. Staff members will be greeting them and welcoming them to the New Year’s Eve Party. As they walk through the reception area, they will have a chance to view iconic New York sites such as the New York City Skyline, the Tin Man Statue, and Lady Liberty. There will be background sounds of busy streets to help create the feel of a New York street. There will also be a New Year’s Eve Resolution wall and photo booth with props to incorporate the New Year’s theme. RECEPTION VISION

After the main course is finished, there will be a Ball Drop, like a traditional New Year’s Eve party. Post Reception will be similar to an after party. The main focus of post-reception will be ambiance with lighting and décor. The ceiling will be full of balloons to make the ceiling appear lower and lighting will be dimmed to create a subtle mood.
