Corporate events

No more banquet chairs in stuffy hotel ballrooms.

Seminars, retreats, networking events and executive dinners, planned around the people in the room and not only the agenda.

The problem

A bigger budget doesn’t make a better event.

Some companies spend a million dollars on AV alone, then put everyone in a hotel room at round tables, on banquet chairs with linen on them. The money went into the screens. Nobody designed the room.

Guests remember how an event felt, and whether they met the people they came to meet. That is where we start.

What stands out

The details guests talk about.

From real events we planned for Gorgias, Triple Whale, HelpGrid and MaxWeb.

The way in

The first thing guests see sets the tone. At The Whalies 2026 it was an illuminated tunnel. In New York, an under-the-sea entryway. In Los Angeles, a striped arch.

Illuminated pink tunnel entrance above steps printed AI you can finally trust to do the work for you — The Whalies 2026

Green and white striped arch printed Retox Retreat at a glass-walled entrance — Retox Retreat

Tunnel floor washed with water ripple light, printed THE WHALIES by Triple Whale, Social Snowball and sendlane — The Whalies New York

Red, black, gold and blue balloon tunnel leading to BUYGOODS marquee letters — BuyGoods Thailand

Sponsor spaces, not banners

Gorgias asked us for sponsor booths at DTCx. Instead of the usual step-and-repeat and a couple of cocktail tables, we built each one around that company’s message.

See the booths we build

Gorgias space with a large pink shopping bag, a staffed counter and a Make It A Gorgias Experience arch — Gorgias at DTCx

FERMÀT space reading Create Funnels the Same Way You Create Ads, with clear tubes on a black wall — Fermat at DTCx

Blue arch-shaped Chamberlain Coffee display holding boxed products under warm lighting — Chamberlain Coffee at The Whalies

A wide Rokt wall reading Unlock The Moment That Matters Most with lounge seating — Rokt at The Whalies 2026

The brand on everything

At DTCx, the logo went on the lattes and the coconuts. At Ecomchella it went on the cups, and at Triple Whale’s Los Angeles tour stop, on the cupcakes.

The night they talk about

Dancers with red fans on the roof terrace of Casa Batlló in Barcelona. A Casino Royale closing dinner in Cyprus. A Hawaiian dance performance on the beach for Gorgias’s ambassadors.

“We couldn’t have had the event success for the four years that we did without her skills.”

What we plan

Seminars first. Retreats, too.

One client booked us for a big seminar in Chicago, found out we plan retreats, and booked their retreat in Madrid too.

The add-on for connection

Connection Concierge.

Before the event, every attendee fills in a questionnaire. We pair them with the speakers and the people they came to meet, and a specialist makes the introductions on the day: one for every 50 guests.

Questions

Before you book.

How early should I book?

Anywhere from 6 to 12 months out is ideal. Dates fill fast, and our schedule is often booked a year in advance.

Do I need a planner?

A planner takes it from vendors and bookings to budgeting, ordering and design, so you can enjoy the day rather than worry about a million little things.

How are you different from other planners?

We create an experience, not just another event. Think comfy lounge chairs and couches versus boring banquet chairs. And the person you work with matters: we meet before booking, so you know you enjoy working together.

Do you travel?

Absolutely. Cyprus, Barcelona, Thailand, London, Miami and more. Travel outside Los Angeles is quoted on top.

Free, no-obligation consultation

Tell us about the event.

A rough date and a headcount are enough to start. After the call, a contract and a retainer secure your date.
