As corporate events manager for the PNC Financial Services Group, Kim Alexander oversees briefings, financial seminars, client entertainment, and employee incentives in the D.C. area; this summer, she planned a pre-performance party for a Crosby, Stills, & Nash show at the Wolf Trap Foundation in Virginia. Alexander has worked at PNC for three years, before which she was a promotion manager for Giant Food.
Decor: “I have learned so much from working with Alison Bates Fisher, an event designer at Main Event Caterers. She has been my right hand and the magical force that makes my job so easy. From chocolate and Champagne receptions to the more formal V.I.P. parties, their presentations and unparalleled service impresses our clients every time. She coordinates every element from menu to floral to linens—each aligning with the theme. She even remembers to bring CDs to complete the ambiance for alfresco dinner receptions. And best of all, she stays within budget.”
Catering: “On a smaller scale, I can’t forget about Catering by Chef, operated by Le Jon Williams. He has saved me on many occasions for last-minute internal meetings. His company is also a one-stop shop when it comes to event planning.”
Impersonators: “Whether it’s Andy Warhol, Marilyn Monroe, or George Washington, Cast of Thousands delivers the best look-alikes."
Event Production: “Hargrove is without a doubt in the top 10 when it comes to set designs for special events. They have customized our inaugural receptions with superb creativity.”
