Name:  Stephen M. Downes

Club:  The Carnegie Abbey Club

Description:  The “Save the Bay Ball”, for which we used these decorations and effects, highlights the importance of giving back to the community.  The event also gets local press cover and enhances the club’s exposure and image in the community.

Implementation:  The décor, decorations and lighting techniques that we used helped create the “WOW” effect for the Beach Ball.  It was a sensory overload – throughout the night there was always sa new effect or something to enjoy.

Name:  Kathryn Gordon

Club:  Chevy Chase Club

Description:  The lighting for this wedding transformed our classic, beautiful ballroom into a magical, fairytale setting for the bride, groom & guests.  The walls and ceilings were lit perfectly to create a soft glow throughout the room.  Through the use of creative lighting, the potential for extravagant events was made clear to members.  Our Club’s operation was greatly enhanced by exemplifying this possibility.  The ambiance and décor created by the lighting, transformed our ballroom and opened a new path for excellence.

Implementation:  Frost lighting helped to create the mystical setting within the ballroom.  Innovative and imaginative planning came to life, transforming our ballroom into an entirely different setting.  Members were amazed how the ballroom had been converted from classic space to warm, romantic venue for a wedding reception.
