Nothing energizes an event like out-of-the-ordinary live entertainment. It’s one of the easiest, most effective ways to add some sizzle to your theme parties, receptions, and other group events. Incorporate a Tiger Woods look alike into your golf tournament, signing autographs and posing for photos. Invite close-up magicians to cast their spell at your next cocktail reception. From live musicians and ensembles to entertainers that can make your entire group a part of the act, Destination Arizona Conference Planners has something special to elevate your next event. We handle everything from small receptions to National Head Line Entertainers
Floral Designs and Plant Décor
Unique and memorable designs for any event, without any Decor, your event would look very plain. Floral decorations make parties sparkle, and they're one of the things we do best. From small, informal affairs to corporate theme parties and annual black-tie galas, our event designers do it all. Flora and Fauna are surely desirable at a Wedding or Special Event, such as Artificial Plants, Artificial Trees and Artificial Flowers.
