Flashworks Photobooth was honored to be invited once again to entertain the guests of the annual MacEwan University Mad Hatter’s Gala.

A red carpet with gold stanchions led down to hall to the Shaw’s Riverview room and the sponsors lounge where guests could mingle and socialize before the start of the cocktail hour in the main banquet ballroom. Within the Riverview Room cocktail tables of different heights were arranged for standing or sitting, and featured gold tablecloths and centerpieces of short tealight candles and taller glass cylinders wrapped with 1920s themed motifs. In the background, music from the 1920s added to the atmosphere of the room. Hors d’oeuvres were served by banquet staff and oysters were iced on a table along the north wall of the room. Along the wall of windows facing the river valley, representatives from Vinomania were providing samples of a variety of wines from California, Australian, and New Zealand.

However, the highlight of this lounge was the guests themselves. It was great to see so many interesting and elegant outfits. The men were in suits and tuxedos complete with top hats (and some with canes) while the ladies were attired in vintage dresses and evening gowns, many with stylish hats and fascinators. There was even a balloon artist making some imaginative and amazing head wear for those that arrived without. And Ernest from Studio-E Photography was on site to capture posed and candid moments, alike.

This reception was very elegant and magnificent…nothing short of sophistication. All these people were gathered together in the wonderful cause of fundraising for student scholarships and bursaries at the MacEwan University. Thanks so much for allowing Flashworks Photobooth to be apart of this fantastic evening!
