OBJECTIVE

KPMG wanted their corporate event to capture the glamour of a Gatsby-inspired black-and-gold theme, with styling that felt luxurious yet practical for a large-scale setting. The focus was on creating immersive visual moments, elegant tablescapes, and seamless styling that complemented the entertainment and stage experience.

WHAT WE DELIVERED

We were exclusively engaged to deliver event styling, transforming the venue into a striking black-and-gold affair. With 50 tables to style, we carefully balanced impact and budget, creating alternating centerpiece designs for maximum effect without compromising the theme.

Since open flames weren’t permitted at RNA Showgrounds, we used sand candles with realistic LED flames, giving the same warm glow as real candles. Base florals surrounded the candles, while alternating tables featured tall pillar arrangements with gold-painted leaves and subtle gold florals woven through for a layered, luxurious look.

Lighting was designed to enhance the Gatsby vibe, and large illuminated letters provided a photo-worthy branding moment for guests. Every detail – from centerpiece height to placement – was thoughtfully considered to ensure unobstructed sightlines to the stage, critical for an event with multiple speakers and presentations.

We also collaborated with an external entertainment partner to tie the styling into the event’s immersive experience, creating cohesive touchpoints from the entrance to the seated dining experience.
