About us

Not every room is created equal.

The Velvet Rope is the curated inner circle inside our event ecosystem — designed for people who value wealth-building, elevated lifestyle, and intentional relationships.

Smaller rooms.
Curated seating.
High-trust introductions.
This isn’t “networking.” It’s relationship architecture.

***

What It Is: The Velvet Rope is a members-only layer built around premium, off-calendar experiences such as:

• Private whiskey and wine tastings
• State of the Market insider nights
• Design dinners and luxury home showcases
• Curated mastermind tables
• Limited-seat lifestyle experiences

The value isn’t the event.

The value is the room.

***

Who It’s For:
• Clients (past and present)
• Top referral partners
• Sponsors and collaborators
• High-caliber professionals who add value to the room
• Future homeowners, investors, and decision-makers

We keep it curated on purpose.
Seats are limited.
Waitlists are normal.
Not everyone is invited to every event.

***

How Access Works: Membership isn’t random — it’s earned. There are three primary doors:

Become a client
Send a referral that becomes a client
Partner as a sponsor or collaborator

If you align with the room and contribute to the ecosystem, there’s a path.

***

What You Can Expect:
• Early access to intimate events
• Priority invitations
• Intentional introductions
• Elevated, relaxed environments
• A community-first experience — never a pitch fest

We believe conversion happens in follow-up, not in the room... So the room stays enjoyable, generous, and smart.

***

Why the Waitlist?

Because the energy changes when the guest list is intentional. We cap attendance to preserve quality conversations and meaningful connections.

***

Interested? If you’re curious about joining, request access and tell us:

• What you do
• The types of people you most enjoy meeting
• Whether you’ve attended Sunset Socials

Not invited? Not yet. Apply. Add value. Show up.

We notice.
