"Being of Los Angeles and for Los Angeles", the most expensive U.S. soccer stadium is not only great for sports but also an event producer's dream.  Ted Bowers and Alisa Walsh recently had the pleasure of exploring the newest large addition to Downtown Los Angeles' event site offerings - and came back to the office inspired.

Can YOU spot Ted and Kristen among the band members of POSTMODERN JUKEBOX? Let us know where they are on Facebook or Instagram. The Event: an annual fundraising gala Date: October 13, 2018 Location: City National Grove of Anaheim Guest Count: 650 Our goal: produce a soiree that would support and enhance the fundraising mission of our client. We immersed attendees in elegance, weaving a cohesive entertainment concept into every aspect of the event, from a guest's entrance to their departure. Ted Bowers: "We have produced this event for several years. In the past, the main attraction was a big name entertainer's performance. This year the client wanted to change it up and shifted in format. The 2018 concept wove entertainment aspects into every segment of the evening, from entrance to departure. We had custom tailored all elements of the experience to compliment the main performance, Postmodern Jukebox. Their energized show provided the icing on the cake."

There were also hat stations, or rather fascinator stations, providing the perfect hat accessory. I got into a conversation with these three ladies who had stopped by on their way to the opera to celebrate "The Stormin' of the Sazerac Bar", an annual local event toasting a feminist milestone, the first time women were allowed unaccompanied in a drinking establishment,  that hap
