Event Design

The Event Design + Production Phase

The intentional design achieves goals and drives attendance.

In the event design and production phase, we transform your event strategy into a live or virtual experience that aligns with your organization and brand during the design phase of the event planning process.

As an experiential event agency, this is where we shine! We see event design as far more than just the event’s aesthetic. When you hire us, you hire a team of award-winning event industry professionals collaborating to produce unique and creative experiences. Our team carries a fundamental understanding of events and their role in the company’s overall marketing and communications strategy.

Collaboration + Concept Development

The theme and concept of the event are developed in this phase.

Your assigned team from The Special Event Company will collaborate with you on the event vision, then present you with innovative concepts to further your message while thoughtfully engaging your attendees.

From selecting the perfect event location and venue to determining a theme and selecting the color pallet to designing each space, the stage set and lighting…we think outside the box!

We Develop a Theme That Resonates

To ensure your event is a resounding success that achieves its intended purpose, it is critical to consider several important factors.

How should the stage set and design be portrayed? Should we have the organization’s four pillars on LED screens throughout the general session to keep them front and center and highlight their importance to the audience? Or how about dressing speakers in flight suites with an airplane hanger photo shown on a giant LED screen, creating a “flight school” scene to go along with the event theme? How can we play off the theme to surprise and delight the attendees? Should we have a Cameo appearance from a Tom Cruise lookalike with a virtual message specific to your audience? Or, what about a Texas Longhorn photo-op, a sequins-clad stilt-walking flapper….or even a person costumed as a zebra-skin rug? (We’ve done all of these – see the gallery.) But more importantly, does it make SENSE to include these things?

Trust that when you see your design proposal, you will see thoughtful consideration of the event strategy and creative ideas. Whether it’s a conference for cardiologists, a virtual continuing education course or a gala for gamers, your event will be one of a kind.
