Campesina Radio - Cinco de Mayo event

This is my first event that I am by myself with all the responsibility. I was involved in the planning, setting, coordinating and pick up for this event. I was on site all day Friday for the set up. The event was Saturday and Sunday, I had staffing during the event which I coordinated during the event. Monday I made sure all of our equipment was picked up and follow up with the client.

It was 4 long days but the event was a success, the client was happy and I prove to myself that I am ready to take on the event manager position offered with this internship.

Wedding- April 25

I shadowed an event manager on a wedding up in Cibola Vista Resort. It was very private and small wedding. PROEM provided power and 4 halo lights. Our entertainment services crew were busy that weekend and we (the event manager and myself) decided to set up the halo lights ourselves. It was difficult due to the wind but we got it done and they looked nice. The wedding ended up moving indoors due to the wind getting stronger throughout the day. It was a great experience for me to learn to set up halo lights.
