The Cultural Punch Factor

Impact!

No, it’s not a new signature drink at the Pearl Lounge . . . it’s fire, impact, the vava voom and pulse of your event. It’s the thing your guests remember and still rave about at the office the next day ~ the Cultural Punch! Having this allows you to add who you are to your event making it unique and refreshing. Let’s take dancing. Woo your guests with a rehearsed number of the rumba or waltz or work with a professional dancer to choreograph your own funk, disco, hip-hop mix to your favorite dance grooves growing up . . . Earth, Wind and Fire’s “September” or booty backin’ “Baby Got Back” by Sir Mix-a-lot or rock Lisa Lisa and the Cult Jam’s “Lost in Emotion”. Do it while celebrating your 40^th birthday, anniversary or just to add drama! Look into who you are as a person, your childhood dreams and nationalities as ways to spark ideas of what to choose. How about having a guest photo gallery of childhood pictures clothes pinned up or asking your Grandma to bake her famous shortbread cookies as favors or at the end of the evening offer your guests hot malasadas in to-go bags – the possibilities are endless! Have Fun discovering your Cultural Punch!

Creating your Punch!

There are lots of ideas you can bounce off from traditional foundations. Change up the bouquet and garter toss at a wedding by recognizing all married couples with a game and the last one standing gets the bouquet and garter as prizes. Print and stick family photos on a tablecloth and have that be the new heirloom linen used during the Holidays. Do you have a traditional idea that appreciate but want to reinvent? Or Have the childhood dreams and are wanting to turn them into tangible favors? Can you generate your Punch?
