In his debut book, acclaimed event designer Bryan Rafanelli shares his secrets for creating unforgettable parties.
Voted one of the top wedding designers in the world by Vogue, Bryan Rafanelli has designed and produced some of the nation s most exclusive and high-profile events, including many for President Obama at the White House as well as Chelsea Clinton s wedding. In his first book, Rafanelli shares his philosophy for creating artful celebrations that convey beauty and elegance while telling a story unique to its hosts. From a seaside destination wedding to a stylish masquerade fete, Rafanelli s work is marked by stunning statements and clever everyday details. The book opens with key Rafanelli principles to hosting great celebrations, from considering a room s surfaces the floor, walls, and ceiling to how adding guests will change what you see. He shares his thoughts on the importance of enhancing what s already part of a space rather than obscuring it, as when he enclosed the gilded mirrors of the East Room in the White House in twelve-foot frames of fresh flowers for a state dinner under President Obama. Part two of the book explores dozens of events in greater detail. Rafanelli takes readers behind the scenes in such sections as Weddings, showcasing both the main event and the welcome and after parties; Charity Events, highlighting what makes one unique and successful; and the White House, featuring state dinners and holiday decor.

Bryan Rafanelli has been named Man of the Moment by Town and Country (2010), a 2011 Innovator and Event Producer of the Year by BizBash, one of OUT magazine s 100 Most Compelling People in 2010, a Trendsetter of the Year by Modern Bride, a 40 Under 40 by the Boston Business Journal and Best in Boston eight years running by Boston magazine. Rafanelli grew up in a large Rhode Island family, his mother always finding reason to throw parties for the people she loved. The sense of community and of bringing people together to have good time just for good time s sake has always been inside me, he says. He launched Rafanelli Events in 1996 as a three-person operation executing only a handful of events a year. It has quickly evolved into a full-service event design, strategy, planning and production company with more than 100 events annually in venues around the world. Headquartered in Boston, Rafanelli Events also has offices in New York City, and Palm Beach. Chelsea Clinton is the vice chair of the Clinton Foundation and the author of several best-selling books.
