Spandex USA Hawaii

Join the Club

Today, more and more companies hosting meetings are interested in offering their attendees a place to hang out together at night away from the hustle and bustle of a hotel bar. One creative way to do this is to transform a hospitality suite from its daytime use into an exciting club. That was the case in this instance where the Client asked Current Affairs to create a club concept that would feature a different ambiance each night over the course of five nights - pictured here is an example of one of those many nights. Equipped with LED lighting panels, pool tables, bars, coffee tables and couches, Current Affairs is set up to create a versatile look that can be interchangeable night after night. More Images....

Brand Appeal

Remember that 70's retro funk? Fluorescent colors, lava lamps, and hot pink everything? Current Affairs brought the retro back with this reception, an event created for a Pharmaceutical company debuting a new product packaged in hot pink and gold. Current Affairs ~ with corporate branding as part of its event production focus - blended these colors to create an exciting look and feel for the reception, which took place at the Mauna Lani Hotel on the Big Island of Hawaii.

Reach for the Beach

Australia Bonland Dairies retained Current Affairs to produce two aloha-themed events. For inspiration, the event team reached for the beach. Tie-dyed linens, Spandex chair covers and a grass shack serving station created a crisp and contemporary interpretation of a beach party. A wall of surfboards and tropical plants provided a visual divider between the color-drenched beach party, and a formal wedding that took place in a nearby ballroom. More Images....

Retro Hawaiian - Flower Power

For this welcome party at The Fairmont Orchid Hotel, on the Big Island of Hawaii, Current Affairs was asked to capture a retro-Hawaiian feel. We were able to accomplish this by using blue and red Hawaiian floral Spandex on the tables and decorative cones, which came alive with internal lighting once the sun had set. These cones made a visual contrast to the chairs covered in white Spandex and elegant centerpieces featuring beautiful white orchids. More Images....

Awesome Powers

What else could be said about this 'Awesome Powers' event, but 'Groovy Baby'! The 'Swinger's Lounge' featured velvet sofas and chairs, faux lamps with fringe, Awesome Powers dressed in his velvet suit, and the 'Supremettes' lip-syncing to 'Baby Love,' Stop in the Name of Love! and other Motown songs. Awesome's 'Dinner Pad' featured strobe lights, illuminated bars in a myriad of color fronts silhouetting graphic images of the Go-Go 70's, tables and chairs dressed in bright colored vinyl, S-shaped columns projecting images of Awesome Powers characters, dancing Go Go girls in vinyl mini dresses and 14, upside down ice cream cones sheathed in shocking flashing psychedelic polka dots.

Blue Hawaii

Dreams certainly do come true in Blue Hawaii, and this is one Hukilau that would even put a smile on the king of rock and roll himself! Vintage decor accents, reminiscent of days gone by, greeted Guests who were encouraged to arrive in popular Hawaiian clothing from the 60's era. After being offered an array of mai tais and, of course, Blue Hawaii drinks by charming beach boys and girls, Guests made their way past the thatched-hut bars where they were treated to colorfully decorated buffets with bamboo skirting, fishnets, seashells, surfboards and of course lush Hawaiian tropical florals (a must for all luaus) amid scrumptious and delectable goodies. Two large Hawaiian Tiki statues presided over the evening's festivities as Elvis and his band entertained with tunes from the 50's and 60's, and graceful Hula Dancers in Hollywood cellophane skirts swayed their hips to the beat!

The Orange Lounge

Current Affairs specializes in taking a concept and painting it red, well orange in this case, meaning pushing the envelope to create larger-than-life productions. And that's just what we did for a new pharmaceutical product that tasted like orange. For the 'Orange Lounge' event at Ala Moana Hotel, orange drenched the room - wall to wall and floor to ceiling. With no detail left unattended, the carpet, the faux fur lamps and even the cocktails were orange. Black lounge couches and techno jazz accented the event. More Images....

The Red Party

Snow White wanders into the red light district and dances in a Go Go cage. While Walt Disney may have been disappointed, for the 500 partygoers of the Pacific Telecommunications Conference, it was an evening of red-hot delight. Our creative team transformed a hip-hop nightclub, swathing it in a bath of red light and decor that included red stalagmites piercing down from the ceiling. Hawaii's Iona Dance Troupe was retained for the party's all-star cast: Snow White, the Evil Queen and the Devil himself. But, by the end of the night, the villains, the heroes and the Guests were all on the dance floor - along with a 10-foot tall ceremonial Chinese red lion - dancing the night away.

Hot! Hot! Hot!

TThings really heated up at this event, which featured sizzling music, peppery dancers and explosive surprises. Fun was in the air at Club Hot Hot Hot. A guitarist and funky horn player really got in the mood...a mime, magician and juggler entertained and the enticing sounds of Calypso drew Guests to the limbo dance. All at once, stage candles ignited simultaneously, leading Guests to a climactic cheer heightened by the band hitting a feverish pitch. Gorgeous Latino dancers danced up a frenzy and party revelers in full costume broke onto the dance floor doing a vibrant Lambada as they tossed beads, glow necklaces, castanets & maracas to club revelers. A sassy salsa takes over and the next thing you know, you're dancing in the samba line and making new friends all the while! More Images....
