CHALLENGES
Clearwater International, a leading financial advisory firm, approached Make Events to host a memorable 20th-anniversary celebration. They envisioned a Pier-themed event at The Lawn Club in Manchester for 160 guests. The challenges included executing the theme transformation, providing engaging entertainment options, ensuring an exceptional guest experience, and meeting client expectations.
SOLUTIONS
To address these challenges, Make Events crafted a comprehensive plan. They transformed The Lawn Club into a pier-themed setting with beach huts, pier railings, and vintage signage. For entertainment, a mix of pier games like hook a duck, beat the buzzer, and a coconut shy were organised. A 2-piece acoustic band played outdoors while a tarot reader added a touch of mystique.
A gourmet BBQ menu was curated to offer guests delicious food options reminiscent of traditional pier fare. As a special touch, branded rock sticks were provided as parting gifts for guests, reinforcing the theme and creating a memorable keepsake.
RETURN ON INVESTMENT
The event’s success yielded a high ROI for Clearwater International. They expressed overwhelming satisfaction, noting the success of bringing their vision to life, solidifying a strong client relationship, and opening the door for potential future collaborations. The diverse entertainment options engaged guests, fostering a sense of community among stakeholders.
Our attention to detail and creative execution ensured that Clearwater International’s 20th-anniversary celebration was memorable, reflecting positively on the company and leaving a lasting impression on guests.
