"Ultimately what really makes the night truly magical is the energy Emily & Preston bring when they create an evening for you. The fact that they like and love eachother makes their space radiate joy, warmth, unity, and of course, love. Anyone with a pulse would be thrilled to indulge in such a glorious evening hosted by them both. I can't recommend them strongly enough."

throw a
PRIVATE PARTY
for you and your friends,
hosted by us!

YOU DO PRIVATE PARTIES?
On your birthday, don't go sing karaoke with your friends again. Don't rent out an anonymous back room to celebrate the holidays. Instead, blow your friends' minds! We are committed to producing a quality customized PRIVATE PARTY for you, one with an alternative / psychedelic edge, and one you - and they - will long remember!

For instance, we (Emily & Preston) just put on a creative event with spiritual overtones for a couple celebrating their 10th wedding anniversary. For a fee, they got use of THE SYNPHORIUM for up to 40 people, and we produced the night to meet their needs. Included were a new ceremony inc. vows, food, DJ, dancing, puppetry, live sitar music, our specialty lighting, etc.

Plus they got to choose a selection of performance art pieces from our ala-carte menu, which we then performed with-and-for the couple and their friends and relatives. (Read "KUDOS" below.)

"Thank you for considering hiring us to produce your special event. Whether it is a private party or a birthday or an anniversary, we will do our best to make it a VERY memorable one for you and your friends, with a distinctly "alternative" flavor!

We want your friends saying "Wow!" when they leave and when they talk to their friends the next day. We will customize a schedule of performances, sharings, ceremonies, dancing, etc. to fit your desires.

Starting at $____, your customized event can start as early as 8pm and end as late as 3am. We have room for up to 40 people at THE SYNPHORIUM, but we're also willing to go elsewhere." - Emily & Preston

PRIVATE PARTY KUDOS
"My spouse and I are still on cloud nine riding on the sweet memories of the fantastic jubilee that was hosted for us by Emily & Preston. The music was angelic, and the performances amazing. Being the perfect hosts, they spent time with us planning it all so we could tailor the evening exactly to our personal wants and needs. I can't recommend them strongly enough."
- Lena Bravo-Olsher

"In addition to the radiance and warmth of our hosts, THE SYNPHORIUM itself provides a magical environment that defies description and transcends one from a state of the mundane and the conundrum of normalcy, into a state of bliss, wonderment, and amazement that encourages openness, freedom of expression, and spiritual and personal growth."
