“Wanted to thank your team for the great job you did this summer producing our summer concert series. As the saying goes, ‘a good time was had by all!’ We’ve run concert series in the past, with other production companies, but this was by far the best ever. Your involvement allowed me, for the first time, to sit back and enjoy the music. Thanks for a great summer.”

“SunnySpot gave us a memory for a lifetime. Every day we remember another detail about that night: the performance of MAMMA MIA on Broadway, the surprise proposal on stage, the timing of our escape by limo, the romantic supper high above Central Park. SunnySpot made our moment last for eternity.”

Thank you for a fabulous party last night! It was an amazing night for our cast, kids and investors.  I don’t know how you pulled together such a fantastic event with so little lead time. The food, the energy, the design and all came together beautifully.  It was a huge success!  A big thank you to the SunnySpot team!
