How do you grasp a true understanding of what your client has in mind for an event?

We like to show clients our office and flood them with ideas and images. We analyze their loves and hates in décor and design which ultimately leads us to determine the right direction. We have over 50,000 square feet of design and décor elements in our office. It’s an event production playground.

What has been your most unique event this year?

We hosted a backyard wedding with a pirate theme where guests and wait staff alike were completely dressed the part. The entrance to the event was a ship wreck. Guests dined on barrels and there were flaming torches around the space. A less than traditional wedding but really exceptional nonetheless.

What event and party trends are making a come-back and which are on their way out?

Comeback: A lot of black and white with a pop of color. Shabby chic and retro are also making a comeback. Ornate red and gold lavish décor is on its way out.

In what ways have you FogScreen to make an event extremely unique?

The most fun application for FogScreen is to use it for grand entrances at weddings and Mitzvahs. An image of the couple or birthday kid can be projected on the fog. It adds drama and spectacle punctuating the entrance moment.
