Phase 1: Listen and Clean

Before we act, we listen. This is where we take the time to learn about you and the event you have in mind. We discuss your hopes and desires, as well as any limiting factors, such as event date or budget. We also use this time to clarify our responsibilities and next steps. We value transparency throughout the entire process.

Phase 2: Identify the Talent

Based on what we learned in Phase One, we develop a creative vision for your event, considering all aspects, from décor to mood to menu. To realize this vision, we tap into our exclusive list of proven vendors and identify the ones who are best-suited for your event. If you have desired vendors in mind, we also research those options for you and gather bids to start filling in some hard numbers. We typically present our Phase Two research about 1 to 3 weeks after the Phase One meeting. Sometimes we draft “good, better and best scenarios” to offer our clients a few options in pricing and the finer details.

Phase 3: Coordinate the Moving Pieces

With an agreed-upon game plan, we set the wheels in motion and keep all parties on track to bring your event to fruition. This phase can include, but is not limited to, creating and enforcing a production schedule; drafting and monitoring a budget; scripting the run of show (timing of the event itself); and lining up details such as audio-visual needs, décor, catering and talent.

Phase 4: Turn Your Vision into Reality

On the day of your event, we will be the first to show up and the last to leave to ensure the occasion is unparalleled.
