About this Event
YOU ARE A VIP...UNLEASH YOUR INNER-CELEBRITY
What IS VIP?
We Are Celebrating Our Industry Partners- It is no coincidence that we align VIP just before the classic "beginning" of wedding season...time to celebrate and catch up before the season takes over our lives. Some of the best Wedding Professionals in the country are in Rochester, and we appreciate them all. If you are a Wedding Professional, come network with your industry peers and raise a glass (or several) with us to kick off an awesome wedding season. And, hey, you just might meet someone in need of your services.
We Are Celebrating Our Current and Future Clients- Come see why Encore Events is considered the best in the country in DJ and Event Entertainment. Meet and hear our nationally-recognized DJs perform all night, experience our lighting design, play in our photo booths, and chat with some of our favorite Wedding Professional friends. Immerse yourself in how amazing your event could be with a venue as incredible as Arbor at the Port and an Entertainment Vendor as strong as Encore Events. Assemble your bridal party and your crew of friends and come party with us! It will be the most memorable night of your event planning.
We Are Celebrating Our Family of Past Clients- Once you are part of the Encore Family, you are always Family. We use VIP as the night to celebrate our beloved legion of former clients. If you are an "Encore Alum", we encourage you to come party with us and the ever-growing group that still attends VIP every year... long after their event with us. We love our Encore client family, and on this night, we show our appreciation.
And Of Course...
We Are Celebrating Encore's Families and Friends- At VIP we pay tribute to our loved ones who support us with this crazy profession we have chosen. Thank you...VIP is for you all, as well.
OUR THEME AND DRESS CODE THIS YEAR IS "Spring Break: MTV Style".
This year, we’re bringing MTV Spring Break to Rochester — ETV style. Welcome to Encore Television live at Arbor at the Port! Break out your bold colors, resort-inspired looks, and your best throwback fashion moments. Yes, we are outside!
The style range spans the decades — from 80s statement pieces (oversized blazers, bold prints, neon accents), to 90s classics (denim on denim, slip dresses, chunky sneakers), to early 2000s MTV energy (cargo pants, baby tees, layered chains, tinted sunglasses).
This is your TRL-meets-beach-party era.
Feeling creative? Go full retro. Channel your favorite era. Mix decades. Commit to the bit.
Not into themed dressing? No worries. Whether you're going all out or keeping it simple, come as you are and bring good vibes.The only requirement is energy.
