Thomas J. Stewart Free Enterprise Lecture Series, September 14, 2010

Guests mingled with speaker and best-selling author Arthur C. BrooksRed rose bouquets accented the black tablecloths

Approximately 140 people attended the First Annual Thomas J. Stewart Free Enterprise Lecture Series in Paradise Valley, Ariz., September 14.

Black cloths and black chairs were offset by the white tent and white carpet

Guests were invited to a reception and lecture at a private residence with guest speaker and best-selling Author Arthur C. Brooks. Afterward they mingled in the home and on the grounds before heading to the main event in a huge tent in the backyard.

ESA rented 2 industrial air conditioners which made the tent a cool oasis escape from the 103 degree Arizona outdoors. ESA chose to lay white carpet in the tent to create a dramatic contrast with the black tablecloths and chairs. Red rose bouquets accented the tables and brought just the right punch to the room.

Holding an event at an outdoor venue brings extra challenges like tent placement, guest comfort, acoustics, fire codes and valet service just to name a few. ESA is no stranger to outdoor event logistics and because of that, guests were treated to a 5-star evening.
