Event Spotlight: Camping Themed Dinner at Mohonk

7:30 AM


event lighting, bistro lighting, pavillion eventOne of our clients had a weekend conference at Mohonk Mountain House in New Paltz, NY. While Event Kings was involved in most of the planning, we pulled out all the stops to set up for their break out dinner. The setting was perfect for a camping theme, so our design team envisioned wooden stumps, rustic lanterns and woodland inspired floral to go on the tables. For an entryway piece the company's name was spelled out in moss covered letters on top of a inner lit table. camping theme event

These two foot large letters were a passion project for our floral designer. There may have been a few accidents with the hot glue gun but the end result was perfect. The letters stood on a custom built wooden stand so they can be placed at the beginning of the venue.

Our tablescapes were made of copper lanterns, small wood stumps and white, yellow and green floral. The table number sign was customized to fit the theme.

Our designer chose sword fern, scabiosa pods, white roses, variegated pittosporum, beplurem, veronica and solidago to create a whimsical look for the event.

If the Twentyteens have taught us anything it is that we’d like to rewind to a simpler time – on occasion. So why not let your next event be that very occasion? This doesn’t mean that you have to sacrifice class and elegance. A hot new event trend – glamping is on the scene. Glamping transforms an ordinary personal or corporate retreat into a uniquely enjoyable experience. Here at Event Kings, we know how to glamp.

Candle-lit details, mason jars, evergreens, gold, twinkling lights and gingham are just a few trends that twist together in order to put the “glam” in “glamping.” The outdoors provide endless entertainment and Event Kings provides the atmosphere that makes even the most adverse guest have a great time.

The next time you rally your troops for that annual retreat to get everyone on the same page, why not bring a little luxury to nature and allow Event Kings to design your perfect glamping event.

Dream Theme: Campout Party

8:59 AM

Ok, maybe this isn't my dream theme but I'm sure it would be awesome for outdoor loving boys (and men).  This camp-out birthday party is just so amazing with all it's details from homemade trail mix to a S'mores Bar to a fishing trip; this party is the entire package. Check out these great pictures for some inspiration or go to Moore Minutes Blog to see the entire party…did I mention the S'mores Bar? 

Do you love the can of Bush Beans in the back? Very authentic!


The tent was hand made and the pennant flags (which area all the rage) were found on etsy. The particular seller on the Moore Minutes blog was on vacation. But this one looks cute. You can also buy an inexpensive one and customize it. The balloons look like boulders and I'm not sure if she did that or bought them looking "dirty."

She even had Bug Juice - how cool is that?
You can also customize labels and make your own bug juice. 
And the Piece De Resistance - the S'mores Bar!!! She had giant marshmallows, peanut butter cups, different shaped graham crackers…I am even loving the burlap overlay. I would be a happy camper with this at my party. In fact, I think I should have a S'mores Bar everyday so I can be happy pappy! 
What? Like that's not practical?

You know how I loves me some scavenger hunts! They are so easy and convenient and a great way to get your guests up and moving. 

She even made hobo sticks - I bow to her. If I ever have a son he can't see this post 
because I will never measure up.
