WHAT WE DO
We do it all. If you’ve got people showing up and a story to tell them, we’re in. And we’ll manage as much or as little of the event as you’d like. From Christmas parties, corporate events, sporting events, charity fundraisers, gala's, weddings, conferences, exhibitions, AGM's and concerts, record releases or product launches, we’ve done it all and just about everything in between.
As to where we do it - you tell us! Recently established as a boutique agency in Collingwood, Ontario, we have a special place in our heart for our local communities in Southern Georgian Bay, Muskoka and Northern Ontario, but we love our clients from across Canada. In other words, we've got you, no matter where you are!
If you don’t see the specific service you’re looking for listed below please reach out. We’re always happy to sit down, talk through what you’re looking for to see if we’re a fit.
+ CONFERENCE DESIGN & EXHIBITIONS
Momento provides all the services integral to hosting a successful conference in the modern context. We have a proven capacity of delivering positive outcomes to all stakeholders: the hosting organisation, organising committees, delegates, presenters and sponsors. We know a properly executed conference will deliver value before, during and after the event.
Our services cover every aspect of your conference including: attending committee meetings, budgeting, financial management and reporting, venue selection and management, program development, coordination of invited speakers, audio visual management, social functions, satchels, name badges and all on-site coordination.
At Momento, we delight in creating ‘Stories in Spaces’ which means we craft spaces that encourage guest immersion and interaction.
+ CONSULTING SERVICES
Would you like to plan and run your own event but would still value a little help along the way with knowledge and guidance from true event professionals? We would be happy to review your documents and quotes and give our recommendations for an improved event and guest experience.
+ REGISTRATION MANAGEMENT
We understand that the first impression of an event is made well before the event itself, so let us take care of those pesky details for you. When you work with Momento, you can feel confident that your guests will receive the highest level of customer service both pre-event and onsite.
Our team can assist with all phases of registration including: pre-registration communications and planning, online and on-site registration support, badge creation and more. We will deal with guest queries via email, phone or social media, and can even help with booking accommodation, transportation or providing information on the destination. Our personal and responsive service ensures your guests show up ready to give you their full attention - and we're happy to help with post-event reporting, giving you the tools you need to build on your story in years to come.
+ TECHNICAL PRODUCTION & AUDIO VISUAL MANAGEMENT
When it comes to delivering a truly compelling story, our specialist skills in technical event production management let you focus on the message, while we take care of the logistics.
With our extensive experience comes the knowledge that any event, large or small, requires a tailored and dedicated approach. From gala dinners and awards nights, to conferences and AGMs, we’re able to provide you with one point of contact who will work with you every step of the way, ensuring that your event’s individuality is recognised and applauded.
Our experienced event production team will be involved across:
- Production management of all aspects of the event, from brief to execution.
- Collaborating with event coordinators, stylists and event partners.
- Event-day management, including production of the event run sheet, stage management, show calling and coordinating the load in/out.
- Liaising with suppliers and venues and logistics management.
- Design, supply, management and operation of all technical elements including audio visual, lighting, staging, rigging and more.
- Styling, theming, design and multimedia services to enhance your event.
+ MARKETING & SOCIAL MEDIA INTEGRATION
Here's a question: If you hold an event and there are no photos on Instagram, did it really even happen? In all seriousness, if you are holding a fundraising gala or a publicly ticketed conference or exhibition, then a marketing strategy with social media integration is an essential component to telling your story before, during and after the event itself.
We help you turn up the social volume with strategies, tactics and priorities that will engage your audience, and industry influencers, and inspire them to connect with you and your brand to nurture a relationship that endures long past a single moment in time.
We also understand what it takes to build a platform that makes sense for your brand. Whether it’s creating an event app or crafting just the right hashtag, a smart, well-executed event marketing identity and social media campaign will encourage guests to share their experience - and your story - with their virtual community.
+ TALENT PROCUREMENT
From backyard bands to Grammy award winners, DJs, speakers, hosts, performance artists and actors we’ve worked with entertainers of all types. We can work with you to acquire the specific entertainer you have in mind or source an artist option suited to your engagement and budget.
More than two decades of experience procuring and organizing talent domestically and internationally has allowed our team to develop important relationships with the world’s top performing artists and their representatives. These relationships enable us to successfully obtain the desired performers for the best price possible.
Throughout the process we consult closely with our clients on matters related to customs and immigration, non-resident taxes, contractual / rider negotiations, payment schedules and technical / hospitality rider requirements. We can also handle all matters related to entertainment including arrangements for artist travel, local ground transportation, backline and all on-site entertainment management.
+ WEDDINGS
Your dream is our dream. We love nothing more than bringing your day to life exactly as you’ve always imagined it or, if you’re drawing a total blank, helping you imagine what the big day could be like. We start all of our wedding engagements with a complimentary consultation, where we get to know one another and decide the best course of action.
Because we also recognize that all needs and budgets are different, we have three general packages that we start with and then tailor to suit our clients’ specific needs.
THE BIG DAY ONLY
We want you to enjoy your day. This package is designed for couples that would like to do all the planning themselves, but want a professional to help them execute all of their hard work when their wedding day finally arrives. Your “day of coordinator” will help make your day unforgettable and stress free.
YOUR PARTNER IN PLANNING
This package was created for the couple who have ventured into wedding planning on their own and have quickly realized they need creative ideas, guidance and support. No matter where you are in the planning process, we can step in and oversee your remaining plans and give you the peace of mind you deserve and the ability to truly enjoy this exciting time in your life.
JUST SHOW UP
We will collaborate with you to manage every aspect of planning your wedding from the initial concept and design to complete event management and final execution. We will handle everything from the budget, timeline and vendors to the smallest of details like arranging for a pet sitter, or bridal party gifts. With this package you’re able to make all the big decisions and then relax, let us handle everything and savour the moment.
+ Destination Weddings
If your big day is happening abroad we’ve got you covered. We will work with you as needed, including travel ahead of time, to ensure that everything goes as planned.
