Challenge
Sachse Construction wanted to take a trip back in time to celebrate the holidays – Mad Men style. How do you transform the iconic Detroit Yacht Club, into a stylish 1960’s lounge for the entire Sachse Construction team of 500 people?
Solution
– 24+ hours of set up for staging, lighting, furniture and decor
– Nearly 9,000 square feet of highly decorated tables with uniquely-themed accents, floral décor, and custom lighting design
– More than 800 square feet of staging and custom-designed panel graphics
– Turnkey audio and visual production
The Corporate Production Services event management team successfully transformed the 1920’s Yacht Club into a 1960’s Mad Men themed party with plenty of room for a strolling dinner and specialty cocktails from the central bar. The exotic floral arrangements and dramatic lighting design with some water-vapor haze made for a spectacularly “Mad” scene for guests to enjoy.
The management team utilized all its event resources including audio/visual production, stage design, bartending services, custom floral designs, lighting accents, highly-detailed floor plan diagrams, catering menus, and more to execute such a unique experience for all its guests.
Result
A well-designed, highly-themed and memorable event for guests to experience, have fun and get lost in time, Mad Men style.
