Mahaffey uses CAD (Computer Aided Design) programs to assist in the
planning of many projects. We can provide CAD diagrams and schematic
drawings that allow you to better visualize the completed structure and its
contents. Crowd flows and equipment access paths can be pre-planned and
approved before assembly work begins. These tools help us eliminate any
unpleasant surprises and ensure your satisfaction.

Event Trends
2010 here! And with a new year comes new trends. This year, it's all about creativity, going green, simplicity, and keeping it comfortable.
With the economy not yet back to "the way things were," we're all searching high and low to make sure we get the best bang for our buck. That's where creativity comes into play. Finding decor you can use again and again, in different ways, can save you a lot of time and money.
Going eco-conscious while entertaining is a great way to be "green." Think electronic and send e-vites rather than printed invitations... Rent tableware vs. buying paper or plastic. Not only is it environmentally-friendly, but it can often give your event a fresh, clean look. Using LED lights add a dramatic effect and can minimize the need for other decor.
Just because you're keeping it simple doesn't mean you can't still have that WOW! factor you’re going for. The solution is to create a dramatic effect on the minimal side and staying within your budget. Try a simple floral arrangement of a single orchid or votive candle floating in water. Rather than going all-out on a band, have a friend DJ your event with his or her iPod.
Comfort is key this season. Let's face it... we all love comfort food. And a comfortable atmosphere is what keeps a party going.
