Anticipating needs

After working with Sheltair on countless other hangar events, aVenue Event Group was well-equipped to take on the planning and execution of the prestigious Wings Wheels Water event. Planning took place 7 months prior to the event to begin site visits and to ensure sponsors and exhibitors were secured. With a similar layout to the Orlando location, where the aVenue offices are located on-site, we were extremely familiar with the layout of the Fort Lauderdale Sheltair and how the event would best come together.

Targeting the right clientele

Wings Wheels Water is a private affair showcasing luxury brands and companies — having the right clientele is essential to a successful event. Because of Sheltair’s long tenure of hosting Wings Wheels Water, we were able to carefully curate an elite guest list consisting of South Florida’s tastemakers.

Working with trusted sponsors

Sponsor investments involve more than just exposure to an elite audience. This exclusive community encourages business connections that go beyond the event and we have continued to work with some of the best in business. At this year’s event, guests enjoyed cocktails sponsored by Bacardi, explored retro-styled cars from Bullet Motor Sports, and could network with individuals from Bank United, TD Bank, and Truist to name a few.

Adding unique elements

For this year’s Wings Wheels Water event, we added many unique elements to help set the scene. Florida Event Decor added a beach ball entrance to the hangar as well as chic furniture to the lounge spaces. Guests walked through an entrance of flowers and hanging lanterns on the tarmac, and could relax in the coastal cabanas. Swing seats were scattered throughout the area and when the sun set, the event was illuminated by truss lighting, and the atmosphere was set with audio from AV Matters.

Wings Wheels Water and aVenue Event Group

Sheltair recently built a new FBO and remodeled the old FBO building at the executive airport in Orlando, which became the new headquarters of aVenue Event Group back in 2020. Through this relationship and through developing “The Hangar” private event brand with Sheltair, aVenue was able to collaborate and quickly build a rapport as a trusted event partner.

After 14 years of hosting the Wings Wheels Water event with other planners, Sheltair handed over the reins to AEG to plan the event for their 15th year. Already having collaborated with Sheltair on other events, aVenue was able to anticipate their needs and was familiar with the style and expectations of working together.

aVenue Event Group was honored to continue the success of Wings Wheels Water as an integral part of the Fort Lauderdale International Boat Show.

AVenue Event Group – specifically Charlton and Chloe were an all-star team to work with while planning our company off-site event at CrushYard. From the initial brainstorming and planning, on-site visits, loads of emails/calls/texts, the team executed the event without a hitch. Grateful for the team for helping our vision come to life.
