Bespoke Conference Set and Evening Team Build


Last week we were back in the South of England, this time in Reading.  A daytime conference that then transformed into an evening Team Build was the plan for the day! Many a month we have been preparing for this event as most of the equipment and the style of the two event parts were bespoke.  Firstly, we designed and built a custom stage set to fit with the venues unique layout, complete with branded skins and matching furniture.  Our lighting was programmed to compliment the stage set and after a detailed morning run through we were ready to rock by the start of the conference.
The evening team build was a complete bespoke build from start to finish allowing us to be creative and really go to town on the look and finish of the event. The Gameshow we decided upon in the end was a well-known intense TV quiz show which in the end turned out to be a great success on the night! We designed the set so that it was just the skins that needed changing in between daytime and evening so we created a bespoke backdrop to set the gameshow scene.  We built the gameshow set furniture and designed and build the entire gameshow on-screen graphics – a massive task that took some head scratching to figure out the complicated game logistics! The evening part of the event went down extremely well, an interactive, fun and unique team building experience and a real fun event for our team to work on. We’re already thinking about some options and ideas for next year!
 Would you like us to help out with your next event - we have a range of in house services and themes to offer, or perhaps, like the above event you need something a little more tailored to suit your needs. Give us a call or drop us an email and i'm sure we can suggest something perfect for you.

A most fabulous Masquerade Ball!

A trip to Guildford earlier in May allowed us to dazzle with our creative flair at a rather glitzy Masquerade Ball.  The event, held at G Live in Guildford chose the Masquerade Ball in contrast to the 007 themed event that we provided last year.  We went bigger and better with a gorgeous Ceiling Hung Fairy Light Canopy, Table Pin Spots and Moving Lights to add movement, effect and depth to the event.  On top of this themed props such as our super sparkly and very effective Masquerade Eye Masks and brand new Illuminated Crystal Chandelier Table Centre Pieces stole the show and added decadence to the already great looking space.

Our fabulous Masquerade Living Statues were on hand to welcome guests and pose for photos – always a good start to any event.  This gorgeous pair were a talking point all night.  The client for this event had a few different Meet and Greet acts to choose from for this theme such as our Black & White Masquerade Stilt Walkers, Contact Jugglers and Venetian Living Statues.


This week we’ve been talking about nothing but Christmas 2015 – seems like ages away yet, but dates are already filling up fast! The back end of the year is looking like a great range of themes so far with a Traditional Fairground, a Great Gatsby, a Winter Ball and a glitzy 25th Birthday celebration amongst others.
Next week, we are back down in the South of England with a bespoke conference set and evening team build! Can’t wait for this one – after last years, it’s sure to be cracking!

If you have any events popping up over the next few months, give us a shout – we’ve got heaps of ideas for the next big thing and are sure to surprise you with what we have in store!
