Proseal 10th Anniversary Party

In October 2007, Proseal approached us to discuss their upcoming 10th Anniversary in February 2008.
Our brief was to design an event at their modern offices and factory worksite in Adlington, Cheshire. They wanted to invite 300 employees and guests and create a relaxed and fun environment for them to enjoy. Aside from wanting BBQ style food and a free bar the client was not sure what else they required to give their guests a memorable time. After a couple of lengthy site meetings we advised on a number of entertainment options and the client decided on various fairground attractions both inside and outside.

Producing the event on a clients private grounds always entails executing a detailed production plan, allowing clients to keep working right up until the start of their event. The event plan space covered all of their main car parks, and suppliers had to been installed in order to maximise the set up space and time allowed to build.


Despite howling gales, bitter temperatures and snow the build went relatively smoothly. We erected two 12m x 24m frame marquees with a long entrance tunnel, before the large fairground rides and mobile toilet units were installed in place. The following 24 hours gave us plenty of time to install the smaller elements of the function, including a full mobile disco, an 18ft long main bar, bucking bronco, animatronic quick draw, furniture and a colour changing smoking/chill out area.
From 7pm on the 2/2/08 guests started to arrive. After a short walk beneath our bespoke tri lite entrance with flame cannons, they were greeted on the red carpet with a drink by our staff. Our award winning flairers provided fantastic bar interaction, mixing bespoke cocktails throughout the night. Guests were free to explore the event area, and they were soon enjoying all the attractions, despite the cold weather! Fresh BBQ food was served all night, alongside a pasta and salad bar. Bacon butties and coffee were served at midnight and all the party-goers were kept safe by our SIA registered security staff and FPOS medic.

It was a fantastic night, and after enjoying a live jive band the guests danced away until 2am. With personalised projections gobos shining both inside and out and city colours lighting the outside area some were still dancing as they walked home!

Dawn Malone, Office Manager, of Proseal said: “Everyone had a great time. The evening was absolutely wonderful and will be talked about for years to come. The only problem we have now is what to do for our Christmas party as nothing will top our tenth anniversary. The snow caused several pre-event jitters but any worries I had were dissolved as Capability Events executed the perfect event keeping all our guests warm despite the bitter February weather.”
As testament to this, guests partied well into the night leaving with huge smiles on their faces and continued to dance on their way home.



We thoroughly enjoyed Proseals' fresh approach to their employees and this function. We wish them all the best for the nest ten years and hope to see them again next year! (Without the snow!) Enjoy the video:

CAPABLITY EVENTS CONDUCT THE CELEBRATIONS
FOR PROSEAL’S TENTH ANNIVERSARY

February 2008 marked the tenth anniversary of Proseal, a Cheshire based company, who are the leading manufacturer of heat sealing machinery and tooling in the UK. To commemorate this auspicious occasion the Directors of Proseal decided to have a relaxed informal party for their employees and guests, and called upon Capability Events to work their magic in delivering a truly memorable event. The brief was to conceive, produce and manage an informal event for 300 guests on site at Proseal’s manufacturing facility and despite the snowy weather this was achieved.

Capability Events utilised the car parks encompassing Proseal’s offices and factory, executing a detailed production plan, which allowed Proseal to continue operating while the party venue was being built. Capability Events designed and built a maze of marquees, which housed an eclectic mix of entertainment, including: a casino, bucking bronco, animatronics western shooting gallery and dancing to a live band and disco. Outside the entertainment continued with fairground dodgems, coconut shy and a shooting gallery.

Ben Leeke, Capability Events, commented: “To bring the whole event to life Proseal projection gobos shone both inside and out, while city colours illuminated the outdoor party area with an explosion of colour. To keep all the guests safe, behind the scenes our SIA registered security staff and FPOS medics were on hand if needed.”

Amid the fairground theme, guests were treated to a barbeque supper and breakfast at midnight plus a free bar throughout the evening, which also included entertainment for Proseal’s party goers in the form of Capability Events signature cocktail flairers who added a touch of spice to the proceedings.

In amongst the excitement of the evening a character photographer took photographs of guests throughout the evening, superimposing the images onto famous film posters providing a fabulous memento of the evening for all those attending.

Ben Leeke added: “Proseal has a great commitment to their team of employees and it was a pleasure to work with them in celebrating their tenth anniversary.”
