CC Events has been living the gypset lifestyle this summer in Montauk NY. Montauk, a not-so-quiet resort town of the famed Hamptons, is filled with beautiful beaches, amazing landscapes and chic bohemians alike. CC Events felt it was not only the perfect place to experience an “endless summer” but to create a Montauk inspired tablescape and event! We worked with local vendors, farms and even used the land to create “Found”.
Hydrangeas and wild flowers are abundant in the Hampton’s and it wouldn’t be a Montauk photoshoot without them.
Ruschmeyer’s, the local hot spot and hotel, donated these growlers which hold handpicked Montauk wildflowers perfectly. CC Events has been sipping on this local Dry Rose Cider all summer long. Its not summer in the Hampton’s without some yummy Rose from Wolfer Estate Vineyard
Spray painted clam shells double as guests escort card rounding out the summer feel! Balsam Farms postcards serve as both the menu and a picturesque addition to the table.
Aerial view of the table. We took cloth and cut them into napkin squares and dyed the tips in indigo and then wrapped them simply with yellow ball string!
It wouldn’t be a summer nights picnic in the Hampton’s without locally sourced produce! The great guys at Balsam Farms hooked us up with their amazing carrots, rasberries, blueberries and their famous jam. We used driftwood as a “jam” plate!
Post up next to this fruit and cheese table on these gorgeous Julie Brown beach chairs and lean back on your custom In Between Waves surf pillow. As they say in Montauk “Locals Only”

CC Events recently was asked to come into a vacant loft in Soho NYC and make it into a “home”. The three bedroom, two bath loft boasted beautiful hardwood floors throughout and amazing light. We had one day to make it cozy for NYC best media to come and enjoy a small event held there by our client. We spruced up the living room and added in a bunch of accessories to give it that “lived in” look. The palette we played with was white, gold and red as it worked well with the space and the clients event was centered around “Holiday”.
We worked with Props for Today and rented a variety of furniture, easels and rugs. What a dream they were to work with and given that it was over the 4th of July weekend we were lucky to have them in our court!
Going with the miniminalist feel of the loft we kept it clean and simple. The bones of the loft were amazing and we wanted that to shine while we subtly inserted accessories here and there. Rugs and flowers made a huge difference in the space!

CC Events hopped on the event planning saddle and took to Malibu for a very special company anniversary for design and advertising powerhouse 72 and Sunny.
Over 300 employees hoofed it up (via bus) the 405 and descended upon the magnificent Saddle Rock Ranch. Nestled on over 1000 acres guests took to the main house for an afternoon of food, wine, activities and sports. CC Events was called in to do the heavy lifting which involved erecting 2 teepees where people jammed on the complimentary instruments and built their own SEEDUM jar with local succulents. We also set up a LUMI process and it was like finger painting class all over again. The fields were adorned with all the best after-school games one could think of: cornhole, volleyball, bacci ball and soccer.
The food expereience could not have been better. Malibu Farms created the freshest menu we have seen in a while and we even brought in a lady who made her own goat cheese on-site. It was a very sustainable day.
After guests helped themselves to food and the three open bars they rested themselves in the pool and all the amazing furniture provided by Yeah Rentals.
We were so excited to work with Myra Vides Photography who took so many amazing shots and captured the spirit of the day. She is so great to work with and we totes recommend her!

Brit pop sensation Kate Nash was in town for her GIRL TALK tour and she did a private performance at the Sonos Studio in Los Angeles. CC Events came in to do both front and back of house production. Over 700 people showed up for the 250 capacity venue and Kate brought down the house.

I like large parties. They’re so intimate. At small parties there isn’t any privacy.
– F. Scott Fitzgerald
There is something so beautiful and tragic about The Great Gatsby, which is why its been reenacted in so many versions on-screen. In celebration of the newest rendition to hit the silver screen CC Events went to glittertown in an ode to 1920’s glamour, love, deceit and wild abandon. We invited a few friends over to the CC Events HQ and completely splashed the place in gold, silver and glitter!
West Egg Long Island was a posh place and we figured that only the chicest played badmitton which is why we spray painted the birdies silver and doused the paddles in gold and made em into escort cards for our guests to find their seats!
We love sparkle and how it totally played into the movie so adding splashes of gold where we could was an absolute must! The fringe wall and silver stars doubled as a photography backdrop!
Champagne goes well with everything, including glitter. CC Events added a little something extra to these bottles to compliment the Gatsby vibe.
