A Weekend of Spectacular Corporate Events produced by Encore Creative
The weekend of March 5th-7th was an especially busy time for the crews of Encore Creative, as we were setting up a number exciting events for the employees of Marsh USA.
The Westin Kierland Resort in Scottsdale was the venue chosen to host, and the expanse of it's grounds along with the multitude of meeting spaces was ideal for presenting several distinctly unique events.
The weekend was planned around a spectacular awards presentation, but guests arrived to find a number of other activities to keep them busy in the meantime; including an Ice Cream Social and a Western-themed cookout.
The idea for the Ice Cream Social came together spontaneously, as a result of a visit to our props warehouse. It wasn't the first time this has happened, and undoubtedly, will not be the last. From time to time, clients visit our warehouse with a specific idea in mind, but as they tour our facilities, the magnitude of what we can do here starts to become apparent. With our huge collection of stages, sets, and props in the building, it's easy to see how ones imagination can start to run rampant. Oftentimes, clients sign off on a more comprehensive order than initially anticipated. In this instance, our Malt Shop set, and our Ice Cream Cone Highboys Tables sold themselves.
The Cowboy Cookout was a beautifully executed outdoor function. Taking advantage of the weather which Arizona is so famous for, we set up a variety of western themed props and decor, including our Cowboy Chaps Entry Arch and our ever-popular Mahogany Island Bar, well-stocked with Mojitos and other libations.
Meanwhile, while our crews were finishing up work on the Glow Lounge and putting the finishing touches on the Awards Ceremony, I was spending a lot of time going back and forth between the two spaces, and recording the progress. You can see an overview in the clip above, and some more details in still photographs here.
