October 2025 Events: Autumn has Arrived

OUR LATEST NEWS

A Magical Mountain Destination Wedding

We had the absolute joy of planning Elizabeth and Connor’s unforgettable destination wedding at Timber Ridge Ski Lodge in Keystone, Colorado. Guests were whisked up the mountain by gondola to a breathtaking ceremony site framed by alpine views, pure Colorado magic! The celebration continued with a lively reception where the dance floor never saw a dull moment. As the night came to a close, nature added its own touch of wonder: the first snow of the season gently fell, wrapping the day in a soft, sparkling glow. A perfect ending to a truly magical day.

Downtown Dallas: The New Wild West?

We recently had the pleasure of producing a two-day, Western-themed networking extravaganza for Sotheby’s Realty at the stunning Omni Dallas Hotel, and it was truly the most “wild west” Dallas has ever looked!

From the moment guests arrived, they were welcomed by cowgirls at registration and immersed in Texas charm at every turn. A morning bluegrass band set the tone for the day, while Texas-style meals and themed snacks kept everyone fueled and in the spirit.

The experience peaked with a blowout finale on the Pegasus Lawn, which we completely transformed into a high-energy Western festival, think smoked meats, chips & guac bars, cobbler stations, trick ropers, AI and tin-type photo booths, and even a faux gun show.

A big thank you to Sotheby’s Realty for trusting us to bring this bold, immersive vision to life. This one will be talked about for a long time!

Fort Worth: ArtsGoggle

ArtsGoggle is Fort Worth’s premier festival of local arts. This free-to-the-public, family-friendly event annually hosts more than 1,000 visual artists, 50 musical performances, artistic displays of every kind, food, drink, and fun for everyone. Unlike any event in Fort Worth, the festival exclusively focuses on highlighting the work of local artists, musicians, and performers of all media and experience levels.

ArtsGoggle started 21 years ago as the Near Southside’s own indoor gallery night, designed to showcase the district’s revitalization efforts underway via newly established businesses hosting one-day open houses in partnership with local artists. The event remained almost exclusively indoors for the first decade before spilling out onto the street. Today, visitors can stroll through artists’ booths on Magnolia Avenue, stretching more than a mile in length.
