LPGA Vancouver 2012

Event Cleanup was onsite for the 2012 CN Canadian Womens Open LPGA event this year. Sub-contracted through Event Labor Works, we supplied labor staff for installation and strike of 49 tents ranging from small to very large!

Tent setup was a 2 week process in total, with a full crew of 7. The weather was beautiful, the grass was green and the tents were erected on schedule and without a hitch.

Niche Event Stylists – Harrison Hot Springs

Our day began as the sun rose from the east, and we were on the road to Greensapes in Burnaby (amazing landscape decor!) to pickup 12 cherry blossom trees, greenery and flower arrangements. From there we made our way to visit Matthew at Big Red Chair Events to load up 115 chivari chairs. Once loaded we headed out to Harrison Hotel in beautiful Harrison Hot Springs.

Event Cleanup staff assisted the Maria and her staff from Niche Event Stylists in putting together the elaborate decor scheme from floor to ceiling consisting of several backdrops and drapery, LED hanging globes, cherry blossom trees, greenery and of course the chivari chair seating.

Of course, what goes up must come down…

After the nights festivities we came back to strike the decor we had spent many hours putting up. We swiftly loaded the truck into the late hours and headed back on the highway for an early morning drop off of the cherry blossom trees and chairs at 6am.

Overall the bride was more than pleased with Maria’s decor scheme and staff and everything went well from start to finish.

Another successful event for the books!

Resident Evil: Raccoon City – Launch Party

Zombies Anyone?

This party was a bit different than our usual setup and strike labor. A zombie part for Slant 6, launching their newest video game Raccoon City which is part of the Resident Evil video game series. We started early with a slough of pickups from film industry supply and rental locations to help this event have the authentic feel that Sarah (Dream Group Productions) had in mind as the coordinator and brains behind this event. Once we had all of her items onsite the setup began. There was everything you would see in a feature zombie movie from blood and guts, body parts, bullet casings, police cars, street lights and yes even zombies…

It was a fantastic display of creativity, and the guests had nothing but wonderful things to say as they departed the nights events!

Cleanup was rather new to us as well, as we had never taken care of a cleanup that had blood all over windows, floors, vehicles and any other surface you could imagine!

We have a few conservative pics below.

BMW M Power Tour

Event Cleanup staff were proud to assist Event Labor Works with the set and take down of the BMW M Power Series in Mission B.C. this past week. The setup included a custom 20ft X 30ft tent display with subfloor and carpeting, and an arrangement of elegant furniture for BMW clients to relax and find some shade. The weather was spectacular and Jeff and Megan from Event Labor Works were a pleasure to work with!
