Retro Tennis

For YPO’s signature event, we curated a two-part experience that brought heritage and contemporary culture into perfect play.

The day began with a retro-style tennis tournament at the prestigious Royal South Yarra Lawn Tennis Club. Drawing on the nostalgia of the 70s and 80s tennis scene, we styled the courtside in vintage flair: custom-branded caps, towels, and mineral water, rattan bar detailing, scalloped umbrellas, and soft-toned florals that gave the event an elevated but playful aesthetic.

To close, guests moved into a private dining space at Cecconi’s, transformed with layered botanicals and sculptural floral arrangements in textured greens. Monogrammed menus, modern crystalware, and ambient lighting delivered intimacy and elegance, aligned with YPO’s leadership-driven ethos.

Whether it’s a tournament or a boardroom, Ruby & James crafts brand-aligned environments that foster culture, spark conversation and leave a lasting impression.
