For the second or third consecutive year, Key Events and Weddings had the privilege of providing Chinese New Year decorations for Marine Gateway in Richmond. This year, Marine Gateway not only entrusted us with their CNY decor but also hired us to coordinate the entertainment, adding a new and exciting dimension to the festivities.
Transforming Marine Gateway
A week before Chinese New Year, our team began the transformation of Marine Gateway Plaza. We adorned the plaza with vibrant red lanterns, symbolizing good fortune and joy, and hung a beautiful CNY banner courtesy of Unico Print Media. The vibrant decorations set the stage for a festive and welcoming atmosphere.
A Week of Festivities
Starting on Chinese New Year’s Eve, we organized three days of lively celebrations. The highlight was the traditional lion dancers who went door to door, visiting participating businesses in the plaza. This vibrant display of culture and tradition brought an energetic and festive spirit to Marine Gateway, captivating everyone in attendance.
Interactive and Exciting Entertainment
This year, for the first time, we introduced a roaming photobooth that roamed the plaza, capturing memorable moments of the celebrations. The photobooth allowed attendees to take fun photos while enjoying the festivities, adding an interactive element to the event.
The celebrations kicked off at Neptune Seafood Palace, where the lion dancers performed from table to table, delighting diners with their skill and artistry. The combination of traditional performances and modern interactive elements made the celebrations loud, exciting, and unforgettable.
A Memorable Collaboration
Working with Marine Gateway to bring their Chinese New Year celebrations to life has always been a rewarding experience. The joy and excitement we witnessed throughout the event were a testament to the power of thoughtful planning and engaging entertainment.
