Mattchella

 In Corporate, Media

From romance and flowers to cowboy boots and live country music! A planner is a planner where passion aligns! In 2022, DreamGroup Founding Planner Genève McNally, stepped out of her comfort zone to plan an impressive and thrilling 40th birthday party celebration for cherished client Matt Lewis.  This Country Music Concert, aptly named Mattchella, was held at the iconic Commodore Ballroom on the Granville strip.

Mattchella was a magical night to remember!

This party was almost 3 years in the making and planned TWICE due to a Covid postponement.  Genève worked with trusted friend Kelly Brock of @vanhattanent who managed the artists and show production side of this massive celebration with lots of exciting moving parts both on and off stage!

“I am reminded how lucky I am to do what I do! And I love it so so much. Being able to take a client’s dream and make it a reality over and over again is so rewarding.”

The crowd pleasing Uproar Dance Team (BC lions dance squad) shared their talents and got everyone hyped up! Their flash mob performance was a highlight for all who attended.

Incredible Performances by @mackenziepmusic @aaronpritchett @dallassmithmusic that converted even the most “country music” resistant individuals.

The best surprise of the night was the involvement of Mike “Bubbles” Smith of Trailer Park Boys as the most entertaining and colorful Emcee one could hope for! Thank you @bubblestpb the most charismatic and funny man you will meet!

“I’ve always been a little bit Country a little bit Rock n Roll myself (and a little bit Jazz and a little bit Classical — haha), but after Saturday I’m definitely a little more Country. They say, “Country Music is Good for the Soul”, and I must agree. It was inspiring!” ~ Genève McNally
