Corporate Technology Services Conference
Grapevine, TX
Significant Events was thrilled to be working with one of the nation’s largest construction companies on their annual Technology Services Conference held in Grapevine at the Hilton DFW Lakes Hotel & Conference Center. With the Technology Services team spread across the country, they knew they needed someone reliable here in Dallas to make the 3 day conference run smoothly and efficiently so they could focus on training their employees on new software and not organizing the event itself. Significant Events secured the fantastic hotel, arranged the Audio Visual needs, planned the catering for the guests, prepared the door prizes, arranged the transportation to and from the airport, prepared welcome packets and agendas, and coordinated the nightly entertainment. On the first night guests were treated to a cocktail reception followed by a gourmet dinner, and on the second night another cocktail reception was followed by a formal plated dinner and a hilarious live show from Ad-Libs Improvisational Comedy Troupe. During the conference, the employees knew that they could rely on us to troubleshoot and resolve any issues that arose, adhere to the logistical schedule that had been created, and manage last minute changes with ease. The conference was a great success!

Testimonials
It’s easy to get up here and talk to everyone during our presentations, but the real work of these conferences goes on behind the scenes and that’s why I want to thank Meredith and CeCe of Significant Events for doing such a great job putting this all together. The hotel was wonderful, the food was delicious, and the entertainment was hilarious! Thanks for all of your hard work. You did a great job!

Tucker Hill’s “Ghouls on the Lawn” 2008
McKinney, TX
The Southernland Company’s Tucker Hill neighborhood in McKinney is a unique master-planned community which contains beautiful vintage style new homes unlike any you will see in North Dallas! Another bonus to living in the gorgeous surroundings of Tucker Hill are the numerous activities they provide for their residents and the McKinney community year round. One of which is their Halloween celebration “Ghouls on the Lawn!” The Tucker Hill staff knew they needed assistance putting together this event for 1,100 people, and they knew just who to call – Significant Events! We took one of their model homes and completely transformed it into a Haunted House for kids of all ages. Additional “spooktacular” lighting was added around the community to set the mood for the “Ghoulish” evening! Other activities included trick or treating, pumpkin painting, scary stories and roasted marshmallows around the fire pit, pictures on a movie set created to resemble The Addams Family home, and a classic Hollywood horror film on the big screen in Founders Square where you could truly see ghouls on the lawn!

Using Significant Events for our party helped make it much more professional, seamless and, best of all, easy! The lighting absolutely transformed the entire community! We would not have been able to envision this transformation, much less executed it without Significant Events and their lighting team. All of the services they provided were excellent, especially because I didn’t have to worry about them!
