Selected Work & Special Moments
We’ve opened doors to San Francisco’s storied halls, raised the first glass in spaces that now feel timeless, and set the table where the city’s voices come together. Here’s a peek into some of our favorite moments over the years—
Pride @ Starlite
For Pride 2026, we conceived and executed a month-long campaign that built upon Starlite's decades-long connection to San Francisco's LGBTQ+ community. Recognizing the venue's history as a gathering place for celebration, performance, and Pride, we partnered with Juanita MORE! and the GLBT Historical Society to create a campaign that honored Starlite's legacy while introducing it to a new generation. Our team led the campaign strategy, programming, partnerships, sponsorships, creative direction, public relations, influencer outreach, and integrated marketing.
The campaign featured four weekly FLOOR21 happy hours, a marquee pre-Pride drag brunch and dance party, community partnerships, influencer activations, and earned media coverage in the San Francisco Chronicle, KTVU FOX 2, SF Bay Times, and other regional outlets. By celebrating San Francisco's rich LGBTQ+ history through thoughtful storytelling and authentic collaboration, the campaign strengthened Starlite's cultural relevance while expanding its reach to new audiences.
The results demonstrated the impact of strategic programming rooted in community: sales increased 57% and guest traffic grew 39% compared to the previous June, positioning Starlite as one of San Francisco's premier Pride destinations and establishing a blueprint for future marquee cultural moments.
Napa Valley Car Club x Harbor House Rally
In partnership with Napa Valley Car Club and Harbor House Inn, we conceived and produced a bespoke VIP rally experience celebrating Northern California through hospitality, wine, and the open road. We curated every element—from the guest list and strategic partnerships to the itinerary and wine program—bringing together a hand-selected group of clients, founders, creatives, and industry leaders for an unforgettable journey from Napa Valley to the Mendocino Coast.
Highlights included lunch with Scott Baird at Jumbo's Win Win, a private tasting at Roederer Estate, and an exclusive overnight experience at Harbor House Inn, where guests enjoyed a private reception hosted by Roederer Estate winemaker Arnaud Weyrich and a custom wine-paired dinner at Chef Matthew Kammerer's two-Michelin-starred restaurant.
It was a one-night-only event that we will never forget.
Lunar New Year with Calvin Hom
We invited fashion icon and Chinatown OG Calvin Hom to host a Lunar New Year celebration at Starlite, featuring red envelopes, custom cocktails inspired by Calvin’s taste, and a surprise dragon dance performance. We curated the guest list and led creative direction and execution for an intimate, culturally driven evening.
ama by Brad Kilgore
For the launch of ama and ama Social Club, we helped build early buzz through curated cultural moments — from an intimate dinner with Betty Yu to after-hours DJ sets and tastemaker gatherings designed to bring the right people into the room. With opening coverage in Food & Wine, Galerie, Surface, San Francisco Chronicle, Condé Nast Traveler, Forbes, The San Francisco Standard, and more, ama quickly cemented itself as one of the hottest tables in San Francisco.
Dinner with The Mascot
We hosted an intimate, one-night-only dinner with The Mascot at San Francisco’s historic Jack’s. Guests brought bottles to share while large-format and library wines from Mascot anchored the table. Smash burgers, caviar, and Champagne set the tone for a convivial, high–low evening celebrating Napa Cabernet and the joy of gathering around a crowded and curated table.
Starlite Reopening
We executed creative and production for not one, but two, opening parties back-to-back for different audiences—christening the space and setting the stage for its next chapter.
Angler x Saison Hospitality Halloween Parties
Halloween at Angler is not a party — it’s a scene. In 2024 and 2025, we led the creative and production of Angler’s most anticipated night of the year, turning the waterfront icon into an immersive, otherworldly experience. With a curated guest list of tastemakers, friends of the house, and city insiders, every detail was designed for maximum mood and cultural resonance — from concept and design through seamless on-site execution. The result: an iconic annual moment that cemented Angler as a go-to destination not just for dining, but for nightlife and culture in San Francisco.
DORSIA LANDS IN SF
The Department of Apéritif ushered Dorsia and its members into an era of unrivaled exclusivity, opening doors to the city's most coveted dining experiences in San Francisco and beyond. With an effortless command of the industry’s most sought-after names, they secured partnerships and hard-to-get reservations with icons like Press Restaurant, Faust Winery, Saison Hospitality, Sons & Daughters, Rich Table, Three Sticks, and Amulet Estate. This was more than a launch—it was an invitation into a world where access is everything, and only the best make the list.
Izzy’s Reopening Dinner (Marina)
To celebrate the return of Izzy’s — the beloved Marina institution reopened by Cory Schisler — we hosted a one-night-only private dinner bringing together 40 of our favorite friends, colleagues, and cultural connectors. The evening was designed to do what we do best: create a room that matters. With media, tastemakers, and city insiders at the table, the night generated immediate buzz and helped cement Izzy’s as a must-visit destination for its next chapter. A perfect nightcap, sealed with our signature “cig” tray.
