Neon, Elegance & Electric Strings.
As summer gave way to early fall, members of The Group stepped into the glow of the Strip for an unforgettable luxury escape: Ready, Set Vegas!, hosted at the stunning Encore Tower Suites at Wynn Las Vegas.
From the moment guests arrived on October 12, 2022, it was clear this weekend was designed to blend the decadence of the Strip with The Group’s unmistakable style of curated intimacy and elevated experience. Every detail—from private dinners to surprise performances—was chosen not just to impress, but to connect.
Suite Dreams & VIP Moments
Guests were welcomed with accommodations inside the Encore Tower Suites, arriving through a discreet, private VIP entrance reserved exclusively for Tower guests. Each suite came with a private treatment room and sweeping views of the Las Vegas skyline. Whether arriving early for cocktails at our private hospitality suite or lounging poolside in a private cabana, the energy was unmistakably that of a well-kept secret among those who value discretion and detail.
An Agenda of Indulgence
Thursday afternoon offered a high-octane highlight. The Group privately booked the entire fleet of Maverick’s Helicopters, each subtly marked with our signature “-g.” Guests soared out over the desert and into the depths of the Grand Canyon, landing on a private plateau just above the Colorado River as golden light crept up the canyon walls. There, amid one of the most breathtaking backdrops on Earth, they were greeted with a catered champagne reception.
After the toast, the fleet lifted off in cinematic fashion, stopping only briefly at a secluded desert landing pad to refuel. The return flight became a surreal, unforgettable moment as our aircraft descended along the Las Vegas Strip in formation, reminiscent of a scene from Apocalypse Now, but rewritten with elegance and style.
Friday night kicked off with a private, chef-led dinner in one of the Strip’s most sought-after venues. As guests arrived, they were greeted by a dining room dressed in elegance—tables draped in pressed white linens, sparkling with fine china, rows of stemware catching the candlelight, and the bounty of ice-laden seafood towers already waiting at each table. The meal unfolded as a multi-course tasting menu inspired by seasonal ingredients and paired with bold reds and crisp whites. Laughter filled the room as new friendships formed and familiar faces reconnected.
Later that evening, guests discreetly slipped into a private, late-night party, which took the evening into a more seductive realm. Crafted cocktails and chilled French champagne flowed freely as performers from various Cirque du Soleil productions—dressed in colorful lingerie and stage couture—moved gracefully through the room, offering a blend of whimsy, tease, and elegance that captivated all in attendance.
Saturday offered time for personal adventures—from boutique shopping and spa treatments to curated outings arranged by the on-site concierge team. On Saturday afternoon, the group gathered at Wynn’s European-style pool, where half the cabanas had been reserved exclusively for our guests. The atmosphere was relaxed, sun-soaked, and unmistakably decadent—a fun-filled, ‘toptional’ pool party that blended elegance with ease, and reminded everyone why we come together in the first place. As twilight approached, anticipation built for what would become the weekend’s unforgettable crescendo.
An After-Party to Remember
Saturday night’s after-party featured an exclusive, pulse-raising performance by Violution, the electrifying string quartet of beautiful young women known for blending classical finesse with a sultry, modern flair and contemporary rock classics. Their high-energy set transformed the private venue into an intimate concert hall where string, rhythm, and spotlight met in a performance that blurred the line between refined and rebellious.
It was seductive. It was stylish. It was Vegas, reimagined for The Group.
The Art of Belonging
As Sunday’s farewell brunch, on the terrace of the Wynn, brought guests together one last time, it was clear that this was more than a weekend getaway. It was a gathering of like-minded individuals who know that luxury isn’t always loud, but it should always be unforgettable.
