For the event, the MGM team took the 200 VIP guests on an unforgettable journey through three distinct celebration experiences.

The hotel ballroom setting--a 17,542-square-foot space--was completely reimagined and transformed into separate rooms: a cocktail reception area, a sit-down dinner space, and a high-end club.

Once the elaborate floor to ceiling decor was installed by the MGM team, not an inch of the walls nor the convention room carpeting was visible.

An edgy extra decor accent for the "BFD" event.

Some 500 lucky guests walked into an airplane hangar in Texas, transformed into a fantasy ski chalet thanks to the team from Silhouette Group.

After cocktails, a grand doorway entrance led to dinner, where guests were transported to the top of the mountain and inside the dining room of the ski chalet.

Guests found their seats at king dining tables, where elaborate runners of florals, greenery, fairy lights, birch wooden stubs and surprise elements such as antlers drew “oohs” and “aahs” from guests.

Luxury air travel from the 1950s and '60s inspired Southwest Conference Planners and M Group Scenic Studios to create this stylish party.

A hangar was transformed into a vintage international flight experience with custom-built scenic fuselages perched on illuminated acrylic platforms and lounge spaces featuring soft leather and sleek high-backed seating.

Southwest and M Scenic used video projections on the walls to draw the space in and provide engaging content via video, lithograph and silhouetted images of maps and planes.

Targeted floor treatments muffled the sound of the cavernous space and warmed the area with blocks of color.
