More than 300 guests were greeted by an angel dancing in a sphere, floating in the pool at Hotel Paseo in Palm Desert to kick off the month of May.

The Palm Desert hotel’s 1950s Airstream trailer provided the backdrop for a pop-up bar on the grass in the back of the property. Guests could practice on the hotel’s putting green, play shuffleboard, and listen to a rock violinist, saxophonist, and DJ playing everything from AC/DC to disco.

Guests lounged indoors and outdoors on white couches and dined at high-top tables with white linens. The food — ahi tuna and prime rib sliders, a pasta bar, and a clear favorite, a selection of three types of french fries — was from hotel restaurant AC3. There was also a bar with various Mediterranean dips, as well as a dessert bar.

As the sun set, some guests warmed up by fire pits; others warmed up by dancing. The energy only got more lively when fire dancers choreographed routines by the pool with shooting fireworks in the backdrop.
