ELEMENTS, THE LOUNGE RECEIVES PRESTIGIOUS
“2004 CONCEPT OF THE YEAR AWARD” FROM NIGHTCLUB & BAR MAGAZINE
MATTHEW BONGIOVI AND VINCENZO RIZZO TO BE HONORED IN LAS
VEGAS ON MARCH 8TH AT THE 37TH ANNUAL INTERNATIONAL NIGHTCLUB & BAR/FOOD &
BEVERAGE CONVENTION AND TRADE SHOW
Sea Bright, NJ: Matthew Bongiovi and Vincenzo Rizzo, owners of Elements,
The Lounge will receive the 2004 Concept of the Year Award in Las Vegas at
the 37th Annual International Nightclub & Bar/Food & Beverage Convention
and Trade Show. The senior staff of Nightclub & Bar Magazine, considered
the #1 trade publication in this industry, came to an unanimous decision
and will honor Bongiovi and Rizzo and their elegant nightclub at their
Fourth Annual Awards Ceremony to be held at the Aladdin Resort & Casino
Hotel on March 8th. The fact Elements was only open for three months
when Nightclub & Bar Magazine made their decision makes this award even
more significant.
In making their final decision, Nightclub & Bar Magazine utilized numerous
factors including: Venue concept in terms of design, décor and atmosphere;
Concept in terms of operations (food menu, beverage menu and
accoutrements); Music and ambiance as it relates to atmosphere; Patron
feedback and position in relation to other venue styles in the industry.
“We couldn’t be more pleased to present the Concept of the Year Award to
Elements, The Lounge,” says Michael Harrelson, editor of Nightclub & Bar
magazine. “The foresight and drive displayed by partners Matthew Bongiovi
and Vincenzo Rizzo set an outstanding example for other venue owners and
operators to follow in developing fresh, dynamic, patron-pleasing
concepts. We here at Nightclub & Bar are eager to see what they create in
the future. Elements is simply off the charts!”

in addition to the amazing response the media has given us is extremely
gratifying. We would like to thank everyone at Nightclub & Bar Magazine
for acknowledging our efforts and for presenting us with this prestigious
