Corporate Events Worth Talking About

Executive dinners, conferences, brand launches, holiday parties, you name it. We plan the kind of events where people stay longer than they planned and make an impression that does more for your brand than any email could.

The Poppy Difference

Great Corporate Events Are About People

We don't just plan events. We make them an experience. Poppy focuses on giving your people moments worth remembering, the kind that go beyond the agenda items.

Employee celebrations, client experiences, product launches, team retreats. The format changes but the standard doesn't. Every event should feel intentional, and we make sure you never have to choose between hosting and managing.

How It Works

The Poppy Process

Two guests arriving at a corporate reception
  1. Let's Get Poppin'

    The first hello

    It starts with a conversation. We get to know you, your people and what an unforgettable celebration looks and feels like, so everything that follows is built around you.

  2. The Poppy Plan

    Roadmap + investment

    A tailored roadmap and investment framework: every milestone and moving part mapped from today through the final send-off, with honest guidance so your investment works as beautifully as it should.

  3. Dreaming in Detail

    Design + sourcing

    The creative heart. Design direction, mood, florals, tablescapes and signage, the little touches that make it unmistakably yours, while we source the right venue and vendors and handle every introduction.

  4. Bringing It to Life

    Management

    We manage the relationships, contracts and logistics behind the scenes, covering vendors, build-outs and timelines, so you can stay present and enjoy the anticipation.

  5. The Final Flourish

    Run-of-show

    A detailed run-of-show with every last detail confirmed and every partner aligned, so the day unfolds exactly as we imagined it together.

  6. Onsite + Enjoy

    Be present with your company

    Seamless onsite hospitality from setup through the last presentation. You are fully present with your people. We have everything else beautifully in hand.
