Mid-winter Christmas

Season Event Design created this look for the Cyclone mid winter Christmas, including stage, lights sound and decor.

Cool blue tones featured in the twinkling fairy-light canopy and gently moving snowflake lighting effects.

Custom graphics featured in the venue screens, and continued in the place settings to tie the theme through multiple areas.

The cutest snow-globe centrepieces and a glowing photo area completed the look!

Our clients wanted to create something quite spectacular to celebrate their wedding recently at Christchurch Art Gallery. The couple with their bridal party and close relations all made a grand entrance into their reception from the staircase, which they wanted to be adorned with elegant beautiful pale blooms.

In total we constructed over 60 metres of garlands to create this effect. The fragrance of the Oriental lilies gently filled the area.

The staircase was also used as a feature for their family, guest and group photos, and our flower wall was enjoyed by all throughout the evening to capture amazing selfies.

Lighting enhanced the venue in the form of delicate fairy lights and bold pink uplighting around the building perimiter.

The Champion Centre celebrated its 40th anniversary with a black-tie fundraising gala at the Christchurch Art Gallery Te Puna o Waiwhetu, in October 2018.
Over 250 guests came together to support the work of the Centre, as they continue to be a leader in the field of early intervention for children with disabilities and developmental delays.
The Champion Centre supports over 165 children and families, with over 100 of these children attending weekly therapy at the Centre’s premises on the Burwood Hospital Campus.
With a vision to ‘Remove Barriers and Unleash Potential’ for the children with disabilities, the Centre has the almighty task of fundraising nearly $1M per year. Thanks to the many wonderful guests who attended the Gala, over $110,000 was raised on the night to support the organisations fundraising efforts.
