Corporate Event Staffing and Planning for Chicago's North Shore

Office parties, client receptions, galas, and tenant events, staffed and planned by the team companies request by name. Your event reflects on you; our job is making you look brilliant.

However Much Help You Want, One Team

Staff It

Trained servers, bartenders, captains, and kitchen staff for the event your team or caterer has planned. Polished, punctual, and professional in front of your clients, your executives, and your tenants.

Plan It

An experienced producer builds your event start to finish: venue, vendors, budget, timeline, and the day itself. One accountable partner instead of a dozen vendor threads in your inbox.

Fill the Gaps

A professional timeline, vendor recommendations, rentals coordination, or last-minute help when the person planning the party just left the company. Individual services, custom-scoped and custom-priced around the event.

Every Event on the Company Calendar

Holiday Parties

The one everyone remembers, staffed by the team some companies have rebooked for over a decade.

Open Houses

First impressions with revenue attached; service polished enough to close on.

Building Events

Property managers across Chicago high-rises trust us with the events their multimillion-dollar tenants attend.

Networking Events

Recurring monthly or quarterly events, run by staff who already know your setup.

Milestone and Retirements

Anniversaries, launches, and send-offs that deserve better than a conference room.

Galas and Fundraisers

Plated dinners, live-auction pacing, and the calm coordination big rooms demand.

The Vendor Your Reputation Can Lean On

When you book the event, you own the outcome. That’s why the details that matter to companies are the ones we’ve built our name on: Punctual and professionally uniformed staff who arrive at the confirmed call time, professionally uniformed and ready for briefing, captains who run the timeline so you can work the room, and a 25-year track record with more than 60,000 events staffed. Corporate clients don’t want an exciting vendor; they want a certain one.

“I work in a high-rise where recommendations are crucial, and That Special Event is my #1 company to recommend to our corporate tenants. These are multimillion-dollar clients who rely on staff who know what they’re doing.”

Lisa

“We use That Special Event every year for our annual ‘Toast to Cove’ celebration, and each year we’re more and more amazed by their timeliness, outstanding service, and ability to connect with our guests. They made this year’s Toast to Cove in September absolutely incredible. A big shout-out to our event captain, Jack, and bartender, Mark, for helping make it such a success. You’re the best!”

Pamela

“I use That Special Event for my professional networking events. The staff has been super reliable and professional. Love that we have this resource here on the North Shore.”
