Guests whispered the secret password to enter the Speakeasy-themed celebration. An elevator that held 50 guests at a time carried out the Speakeasy theme. Festive décor, roving entertainers and an energetic DJ kept the Prohibition-era vibe going.

Catering also stayed on theme, with delicious food and abundant drink:

• Brass tubs with drinks on ice
• Under the “L” carving station
• Salads at The Green Line
• Dinner at Capone’s pasta station
• A sinful landscape of desserts at the Sweet Spot

While hundreds of guests packed the dance floor non-stop, a Speakeasy lounge area lured guests who wanted a quieter moment for conversation.  A multiscreen AV presentation recognizing top performers ran on a loop throughout the evening.  Bus transportation was arranged for a whopping 1,000 guests on 23 separate motor coaches to and from the venue.
