The 4th Annual Zonies (Arizona Event Industry Awards) took place on May 14th, 2010, with Encore Creative selected as a finalist in the categories of Best Entertainment and Best Decor. Encore staffers, Michelle Magana and David Kellett, who put together the company's entries, were on hand for the awards dinner, which was held at Chase Field's Suite Lounge.
The evening's events commenced with a Networking/Cocktail Reception, during which time, guests were able to review all of the finalist's entries. Dinner was served during the awards ceremony, with a break at the mid-point for for some live entertainment from the local dance troupe Foot Klan. A highlight of the evening was when guest were taken on a guided tour, down through the stadium's corridors, past the dugouts, and right onto the grass of Chase field!

Recently, a client came in with a scrap of fabric, that had a pattern on it, which they wanted to use as a motif in their wedding.
The plan was to order rolls of the fabric, to make our own custom linens and accents, but a challenge arose, when it was discovered that the fabric in question had been discontinued.
Some would resign themselves to the fact that they would simply have to select a new fabric, but not us! Here's a great example of how our team and resources came together to pull off a seemingly impossible task.

First, we had our graphics department scan the client's fabric swatch. Then, using a graphics program, we were able to create a tile of the pattern. This allowed us to recreate the pattern without any seams, on any sized surface, no matter what the width or length.
Using our large format printer, we printed the pattern out onto a special canvas, recreating the look and feel of the original fabric!
