1st Annual Spooktacular Bash









What a night!! Our first annual Spooktacular Bash was quite a success, a special thanks to all who attended. The music was bumpin', drinks were flowin' and the ghoulish grub was to DIE for. Tom Catrow created a special Witches Stew, yummy Sushi Rolls and Cookies that looked like boney bloody fingers! The costumes were amazing this year and our contest was quite a hoot. The decor was a perfect Halloween theme complete with spider webs, black lights, smoke machine and cozy lounges-the event staff really outdid themselves this year. THANK YOU all who donated extra to the American Heart Association-we love giving back and supporting such a wonderful foundation. Start thinking of your costumes and we will see you again next year, BOO!

Salt Lake Convention Visitors Bureau 10/14/10

Pierpont Place welcomed the SLCVB for their western conference, which showcased how walkable SLC is. It started out as a great evening with a scavenger hunt activity that concluded at Squatters Pub and the guests headed over to PP for a banquet. As they wined and dined on all local cuisine, High West Whisky and Wasatch Beers were featured. Along with all local floral in which the lovely Janice and Ashley created together. Planners from Beverly Hills and North Carolina were quite impressed with the space (of course!) and were excited to take along with them some new inspiration and ideas for their business.

Gaea and Mark Wedding October 9, 2010

I caught a glimpse of this wedding and all I can say is C-U-T-E!! With a color scheme of creme and copper, Pierpont Place took on a stunning fall look. A 50's theme throughout, this space was transformed with an arcade game, photo booth, framed invites lining the walls and scrabble inspired place settings. Culinary Crafts provided a fun spread of mini-grilled cheese sandwiches with roasted tomato bisque soup, mini hamburgers and french fries, buttermilk fried chicken and corn cobette. Let's not forget about dessert which included mini pumpkin pies (perfect for this time of year) milk shakes, doughnut holes, creme puffs and fresh fruit tarts-YUM. Premier Bar service featured POM martinis with a sugared rim and pomegranate seed garnish. Truly one of the cutest weddings I have seen in awhile :)

October 6, 2010 Xango

Xango, yes the healthy and delicious juice company, held their annual conference this year in downtown Salt Lake City. Afterwards, they held a fabulous dinner banquet catered to their Japanese employees, all taking place at Pierpont Place-where else?! The event was decked out in Xango's original colors of navy blue and orange with matching lanterns, table settings and floral design. Good work design team!

October 2, 2010 USS John W. Thomason



For those of you who don't know, the USS John W Thomason Association is compromised of the officers who served during her naval career from 1945-1970. These shipmate reunions have been held every two years since 1988 and Pierpont Place was lucky enough to host the most recent reunion-all that attended agreed it was a tremendous success!

September 22, 2010

Pierpont Place was delighted to host a celebratory evening for Tomax-retail.net, the leading provider of retail software solutions and services. Customers include L.L. Bean, 24 Hour Fitness and just recently signed Jiffy Lube-to name a few. While attending the Visibility Conference at the nearby Hilton by day, guests were able to mingle and enjoy a cocktail afterwards provided by Premier-P.P's sister company providing excellent bar service. Hor D'oeuvres were served throughout the venue created by one of our favorite chef's Tom Catrow. A few of the offerings consisted of polenta with wild mushroom ragout, caprese salad, puff pastry with asparagus and smoked salmon pinwheels with goat cheese, lemon and chive. A yummy spread, if I do say so myself!

Dew Tour September 18, 2010

Toyota Antics, Filter Magazine and Pierpont Place all teamed up to host THE official Dew Tour After-Party on Saturday September 18, 2010. This is the third year for us and with the recession still effecting business, the Dew Tour pulled all of it's after parties except ours :)







I was lucky enough to catch up with Monique from Filter Magazine just prior to the event to briefly chat about what presence Toyota Antics and Filter Magazine has on big events such as the Dew Tour. She informed me about Filter Magazine's quest for featuring up-and-coming artists mostly from the L.A. West Coast music scene along with their East Coast affiliates. She is lucky enough to travel to music festivals and block parties amongst other exciting events.





















Toyota's "Sweet Ride" consists of a Toyota Yaris in treat wrapping loaded with tons of candy along with the Toyota game car complete with old school arcade games.

A special photo booth was provided for guests along with a custom silk screen station in which you could design your very own T-shirt. Passed hors d'oeuvres were provided by Cosmopolitan Catering. Some of the delectable appetizers included: sesame chicken skewers, sliders, moroccan chicken, sweet pepper hummus and edamame served in bamboo cones.
























DJ sets were performed by Hollywood Holt-straight outta Chicago and Salt Lake's very own Flash and Flare.

Underground Distillery featured their new herbal bitter that has a surprisingly similarity to Jagermeister, that mixes well with any beverage. The owners of Underground attended this event to promote Ogden's own distillery (a big shout out to the locals here!) Rooster's, also from Ogden provided local beer for this even. Thanks to everyone for their amazing diligence and hard work in executing such a magnificent event!

Utah Hispanic Chamber of Commerce (UHCC)

September 14, 2010

UHCC held it's monthly V.I.P Luncheon catered by Tom Catrow whom provided a tasty spread served buffet style. Distinguished keynote speakers included: Catholic Community Services of Utah, Sams Club and GBS Benefits. These luncheons are typically held on the second Tuesday of the month for the members to provide speakers, expert panelists, UHCC news and raffle prizes. We are lucky enough to have such amazing clients as we continue to host many of their upcoming events.

Sports Car Club of America (S.C.C.A)

September 12, 2010

Pierpont Place was excited to host the awards ceremony of the Playboy MX-5 Cup, held at the Miller Motorsports Park in Tooele earlier that day. With Playboy and Mazda being the sponsors of this heated race, the awardees received red velvet robes that paralleled the likes of Hugh Hefner. With a White, Red and Black theme throughout, the setting took on a sports feel and Cosmopolitan catered an exquisite served and plated dinner. Yet again, the talented group of Pierpont Place was able to transform this amazing venue-always aiming to please.

Kier & Maria (August 9, 2010)



Congratulations and Hooray for Kier and Maria, who are dear friends of Pierpont Place. Kier and Maria had quite a long engagement but we were happy for this day to finally come. Maria was very easy going with a simple, sleek and classic style. It was exciting for the couple to tie in their backgrounds of Japanese and Irish, as they had a traditional bagpiper play directly following the wedding ceremony. The venue was covered in summer colors of moss and traditional white with accents of fern along with fringe French tulips, orchids strewn and sprinkled throughout along with ranaculas and dahlias. A fabulous turnout for a wonderful and happy duo!

Sarah & Tim (August 7, 2010)



It has been a lengthy, yet fabulous journey for these two special people. Sarah and Tim were early bookers as they visited Pierpont Place, they knew it was the perfect spot to hold both their wedding ceremony and reception. Sarah’s colors fit her personality perfectly, which included simple black and bright pink, in which the entire event was decorated. Her flowers were fresh and bright including pink hydrangeas, orchids, roses, small calla lilies and white parrot tulips. The Daniel Day Trio played their fun musical covers in which the guests could not get enough of. What a magical evening and congrats to the newly married couple!

Liberty Mountain/O.R.


Liberty Mountain featuring everything outdoors held it’s private event with Pierpont Place hosting a European themed evening. Flags were strewn across the ceiling from six different countries to tie in the theme along with separate buffet stations featuring an array of specialty dishes from each individual country. Tom Catros really shone bright with his marvelous and creative cuisine. Along with Premier Bar service, there was a refreshing Italian Soda Bar in which guests got to choose their favorite flavors.


Canoe and Kayak Magazine/Outdoor Retailer


Outdoor Retailer Events continue, this time sponsored by NRS (a national kayak gear, boating and rafting supplier) who has joined Pierpont Place for their third year in a row for OR. This year they launched their new magazine “SUP” along with Canoe & Kayak Magazine.

Re-Cap of August




Welcome back Pierpont Place Blog Follower! It has been a crazy busy summer and we wanted to give a quick update on last months huge events. Starting with CVB's quarterly business connect with Salt Lake Magazine. The decor was perfectly themed with a paper mache runner covered with actual cutouts from the magazine along with illuminated vases wrapped in vellum cutouts. Creatively designed with an art deco theme, the fabulous event planners and designers definitely outdid themselves.
