Challenge

Marking 50 years in business is a huge milestone. Carroll Estates, one of Ireland’s leading property developers wanted to celebrate this special occasion in a way that honoured their legacy, celebrated their team, suppliers and long term partners and left a lasting impression on guests.

Action

In preparation for the client’s event, our team undertook comprehensive pre event planning to ensure every detail was carefully considered. This included close collaboration with the client to define objectives and timelines as well as ideation and developing budgets in line with this. We co-ordinated with multiple suppliers covering the venue, décor, branding, entertainment to ensure all partners were aligned.

 

Ripple visited the venue and hosted a recce to assess logistics, access points, layout options and branding opportunities. This also allowed us to anticipate potential challenges and implement solutions in advance. A detailed running order was created that covered the drinks reception, photography, speeches, entertainment and the food and drink service.

On the day of the event, the Ripple event management team oversaw the smooth flow of activities, acting as a central point of contact for the client and the suppliers, ensuring every element ran seamlessly. Ripple set out to ensure that each detail of the celebration reflected the significance of this milestone. From subtle branding touches to thoughtful decor, nothing was overlooked. We placed Carroll Estates’ story and brand identity at the heart of the event in a way that felt seamless and elevated, making sure guests experienced it from the moment they arrived to the moment they left.

 

The Ripple team delivered a memorable experience for the event. Branded décor and styling included custom window decals, balloon arrangements, table covers, cocktail menus and seating charts, all designed in Carroll Estates’ brand colours, with every element, from table centrepieces to signage, reinforcing the brand identity throughout the space. Guests were treated to branded party favours, creating lasting keepsakes of the night.

 

Ripple also curated entertainment that perfectly matched the celebratory tone, providing light hearted and engaging experiences for attendees. To capture the atmosphere and key moments, professional photography and real-time social media coverage were provided, ensuring the event was documented and shared effectively.

Outcome

The result was a celebration that guests truly enjoyed. The atmosphere struck the perfect balance between honouring the brand’s 50 year heritage and creating a fresh, engaging experience that left everyone talking.
