Outdoor event strategy consultant for corporate retreats and weddings, California

The land is the easy part.

You found the ranch. Or the meadow, or the property with cabins and nothing else. Now someone has to answer the questions a venue normally answers for you:

  • Where does the power come from, and how much do we need?

  • How many restrooms and showers do 200 people need for three nights, and who services them?

  • Which caterer can actually run a kitchen in a field?

  • How do guests find their way back to their tent at midnight?

  • Who is on site at 2 a.m. when something needs to get done?

Most planners end up with eight vendors, eight contracts and no one responsible for how the pieces fit. We take that whole job. You get one plan, one point of contact and one contract. Your guests get a site that works.

You plan the program. We engineer the escape.

Everything a venue would give you, built from scratch.

  • Power

    Generator, hybrid and battery storage systems sized to your actual load, with distribution and cable management laid out for guest safety. Quiet battery power where it matters most: sleeping areas, meeting spaces, late-night zones. Every power plan includes a written backup plan.

  • Site and Pathway Lighting

    Light towers for work areas, pathway lighting for guest routes, ambient lighting for gathering spaces.

  • Water

    Potable water delivery, storage and filtered water stations, sized to headcount and event length.

  • Restrooms and Showers

    Restroom and shower trailers, including climate-controlled VIP units, with a servicing schedule built for multi-day events.

  • Trash and Recycling

    Sorted waste stations, scheduled hauling and a leave-it-as-we-found-it strike.

  • Shelter and Lounge Structures

    Gathering tents, shade structures, lounge and furnished common areas for meals, meetings and evenings.

  • Climate Control

    Heating and cooling for shared structures, specified for the season and the site.

  • Site Mapping and Build Schedules

    A scaled site map, guest flow, vehicle and delivery routes, and an hour-by-hour build and strike schedule shared with every vendor.

  • Delivery Coordination

    Truck access, staging, sequencing and on-site receiving, so every vendor arrives in the right order.

  • On-Site Management, Load-In to Strike

    A production lead on site for the full event. Vendors, crew, deliveries and problems all go to one person, not to your team.

Interior of a large tent with two beds covered with patterned blankets, small wooden tables with cups beside each bed, and a hanging wooden rack with hangers and a light fixture.

Need beds? We bring a village.

Most production companies stop at infrastructure. We also own about 100 furnished bedroom tents: canvas tents with real mattresses, quality linens, rugs, lighting and outdoor seating, in configurations from one queen to multiple twins.

Add lodging when your site has no beds, too few beds, or when you want everyone staying together. Skip it when guests are in nearby cabins or hotels. The production plan works either way.

  • Bedroom tents in single, double and group layouts

  • Lounge and communal tents

  • Optional morning coffee, housekeeping and check-in support

  • Larger tent counts with advance notice

We don’t put heaters inside sleeping tents because we can’t run them safely in canvas. We plan warmth with bedding, layered linens and heated shared spaces instead.

The specialists, already vetted for remote site production.

We don’t run your program. We do know who can deliver it off-grid. These services are coordinated through vetted partners who work in remote settings, scheduled into our build plan and managed on site by our team.

  • Catering and Beverages: caterers experienced with food and beverage in remote settings over multi-day events

  • AV Production: dealer displays, breakout spaces, sponsor spaces, staging, sound, presentation setups and live music production

  • Connectivity: basic guest and staff wi-fi

  • Outdoor Activities: cycling, ATV outings, kayaks and guided experiences

  • Photographer

  • Guest Transportation: shuttles between airport, lodging and site

Pick a starting point. We build from there.

  • Site Assessment

    Discovery call, site walk (in person in Northern California, remote elsewhere), and a written summary of power, water, restroom, access and layout needs, with a recommended timeline.

    Best for anyone deciding whether a property can work.

  • Basecamp: Essentials

    Up to [75] guests, day events or one to two nights.

    Power, lighting, restrooms, water stations, trash, site map and an on-site production lead.

  • Outpost: Full Site

    [75] to [250] guests, multi-day.

    Everything in Basecamp plus showers, shelter and lounge structures, climate control for shared spaces, quiet power zones, partner coordination and weekly planning check-ins.

  • Expedition: Custom

    [250] to 600+ guests, festivals, brand and dealer events.

    Everything in Outpost plus multi-zone site design, a dedicated production manager from planning through strike, and full partner management.

Off-grid events reward early planning.

  • 250 to 600+ guests: start 8 to 12+ months out (permits, multi-vendor scheduling, site engineering)

Planning a spring or summer event? This is the window. Peak-season trailers, power and crews book up between now and December.

We’ve built it before, on land with nothing on it.
