Strategic event production and hospitality, wherever the occasion takes you
For more than a decade, CDWE has produced complex, highly considered events across the United States, Latin America and the Caribbean, and Europe. Our work is rooted in exceptional hospitality, thoughtful design, meticulous production, and an understanding that every gathering, whether for 20 guests or 500, represents the people and organizations behind it.
Corporate, Cultural & Private Events
“Claire was an absolute joy to work with on my organization’s annual fundraising gala! She ensured every aspect of the event’s design was aligned with our brand. She activated a unique, DC landmark for our venue, leveraged her network to ensure we were working with the right vendors, and came to every meeting and walkthrough ready with innovative and creative ideas. So many fundraising events can feel stagnant, but Claire breathed life into ours. Her passion comes through in everything she does, making her an asset to any event planning process.”
- Emma Cummings, Imagination Stage
Our team has produced events throughout the United States, Latin America and the Caribbean, as well as Spain, Italy, the United Kingdom, and beyond, with an established presence in both the United States and Madrid. This international experience allows us to navigate different markets, cultures, venues, and vendor teams with confidence.
Whether we are brought in for a single important event or become a trusted resource over time, our role is simple: to understand what the occasion requires, take ownership of the details, and create an experience in which both host and guests feel exceptionally well cared for.
We partner with companies, institutions, cultural organizations, family offices, entertainment professionals, and private clients to produce events that call for a particularly high level of care and execution. From executive dinners and client hospitality to galas, cultural gatherings, milestone celebrations, artist and VIP hospitality, and large-scale special events, each engagement is approached with the same discretion, creativity, and attention to detail that have defined CDWE since its founding.
For organizations that need senior event expertise without building it in-house, CDWE can also serve as an external event production partner, providing an experienced team to call upon whenever the occasion demands it.
