#OTMExclusive 💍 How many people can say the @jonasbrothers played their first dance song live? 🎶🎸 After exchanging vows in Aspen, content creator @lelers123 and @robertkimmelman surprised their guests with the trio, singing “When You Look Me in the Eyes.” 🌲🤍 Then, the groom got really involved in the best way. “He jumped in for Big Rob’s part in ‘Burnin’ Up,’ and it was genuinely the greatest thing I have ever seen,” LeLe recalls.

Beneath the glitter, there is a story we don’t always see. For the 2026 @projecthealthyminds Gala, Rafanelli Events had the honor of producing Beneath the Glitter, an immersive experience inspired by Studio 54 that explored the contrast between outward glamour and the struggles we carry beneath the surface. In collaboration with Naeem Khan, this year’s Artistic Curator, we brought this powerful message to life through design. In an industry dedicated to creating moments of celebration, we recognize how important it is to make space for the conversations that often go unseen. Mental health touches every industry, every community, and every one of us. We are proud to stand alongside Project Healthy Minds in turning awareness into action. Putting our creativity and expertise behind a cause we believe in is more than work. It is a privilege, a joy, and a responsibility we hold close.

Every design decision contributes to a larger vision. From the smallest details of a tablescape to the architectural elements that define a space, each layer is thoughtfully considered to create a cohesive experience. Our designer Carly takes us inside the creative process, sharing the thinking behind the materials, textures, proportions, and details that brought this celebration to life.

The art of October entertaining is in the details guests experience. Draw inspiration from the changing foliage, let seasonal ingredients guide the menu, and bring the evening to life with interactive culinary experiences and live music. From color and texture to flavor and atmosphere, every element should feel intentional, creating a gathering that captures the spirit of the season.

Some tents take days to build. This one took weeks. Load-in began June 22. The wedding was July 18. Our team remained on-site through August 1. But the scale of this production tells only part of the story. Behind every structure, installation, and design decision was a clear intention: to create something extraordinary, deeply personal, and worthy of the celebration taking place within it. And when the mother of the bride stepped inside for the first time, her reaction said it all: “How lucky are we?” From the magnitude of the build to the smallest design details, our Founder & Chief Creative Officer, Bryan Rafanelli, takes us behind the scenes of what it took to bring this vision to life…and the moment that made it all worthwhile.

The best service is often the part you never notice. What guests experienced as an effortlessly beautiful setting was the result of weeks of construction, months to years of meticulous planning, and countless decisions made long before the celebration began. From the architecture of the tent to the placement of every table, floral installation, and lighting detail, each element was considered not only for how it looked, but for how the experience would unfold. Because exceptional event production isn’t simply about bringing a vision to life. It’s about anticipating every need, orchestrating every transition, and creating an environment where our clients can be entirely present. The complexity is ours to manage. The celebration is theirs to enjoy.

There is a moment before the guests arrive, before the music begins, before the celebration is underway, when our clients see it all for the first time. For this family, the first words were: “How lucky are we?” It’s a moment we never tire of witnessing. To take the ideas, conversations, and details imagined over months, sometimes years, and bring them together in a way that makes someone stop, look around, and feel the significance of it all. The design matters. Every detail matters. But ultimately, it’s about how it makes people feel. Being trusted to create that feeling is one of the greatest privileges of what we do.

For 34 years, BC Pops on the Heights has brought the Boston College community together for an evening rooted in celebration, tradition, and possibility. This year, the design looked forward. Grounded in the history and traditions that have shaped generations of Eagles, the experience became a visual bridge between where Boston College has been and where its students are headed next. A story of legacy, momentum, and a future still being written. And this year, that future became even more tangible: $12.4 million raised for student scholarships at Boston College. 34 years of bringing people together. An impact that reaches far beyond the room.

A dinner designed to make conversation the main course. Cocktails and live guitar set the tone for the evening before guests took their seats, where a magnifying glass revealed a question waiting at every place setting. One by one, everyone answered aloud. Over six courses, the questions opened the door to stories, perspectives, and a deeper kind of conversation. The table became a place to listen, share, challenge, and connect. A thoughtful question can change the entire energy of a room.

The best way to step into Q4? Around a table with the people shaping what comes next. Our thought leader dinners bring together some of the brightest minds in our industry for something we don’t get enough of: time to exchange ideas, share experiences, challenge perspectives, and learn from one another. We’re proud to create these spaces alongside @Forma_mgmt and @innatperrycabin, bringing our peers together not simply to connect, but to contribute to the continued growth of our industry. The conversation around the table is only the beginning. The ideas, connections, and perspectives carry forward long after dinner ends.
