Alice!  The Cheshire cat! White rabbits! Caterpillars! Magical mushrooms! Oh my! South Florida’s gala season came to a “curiouser and curiouser” close earlier this month. On May 17th, Galaxy Productions was the proud production and management partner of the Whimsical Wonderland Ball, Doctor Hospital‘s third annual fundraising gala, where over 700 guests spiraled down the rabbit hole into an awe-inspiring party.

While the ball was a feast for the senses (more on that in a bit) — it raised more than $700,000 for Doctors Hospital — specifically the hospital’s OR Renovation Project.

“We are grateful to our committee chairs and volunteers for planning another event filled with our signature elements of enchantment, excitement and energy,” said Nelson Lazo, CEO of Doctors Hospital. “Celebrating the magic of the city we live in and the community we serve, the Whimsical Wonderland Ball set the pace for our future by supporting the commitment and dedication of our physicians and caregivers,” he adds.

Over one year in the creating process along with the committee and Baptist Hospital Foundation; the Arena at FIU was transformed into the magical night in which the Mad Hatter, Queen of Hearts, stilt walkers, live beats, an interactive cupcake wall, over-the-top whimsical décor and more. Guests grooved to a space age orchestration of lighting, visual effects, and laser morphing to the beat of the wildest remixes and dance tracks. MOBIUS8, an “Electronic Disc Jockey” and performance artist, played his “hydra,” translating motion into sound.

With more than $700,000 raised for Doctors Hospital, it was a magical night indeed.
