The Process

Consultation

Through a series of face-to-face meetings, phone calls and emails this is an opportunity to exchange basic information regarding an overview of your event, concept, location, attendees and target audience.

Planning 

During this phase details are established regarding budget, logistics, permitting and licensing, safety regulations, design, vendors and entertainment.

Execution

At this point, all of the pieces are in place and fine-tuned. Depending on the size and scope of your event, the initial set-up will begin weeks prior to the event start date.
