Forceful winds on the high plains, where DEN is located, can turn wicked even on the clearest, sunniest Colorado day. But nobody involved with this extraordinary event had any cause for concern.

The team began visualizing the hotel opening event more than a year before the targeted event date. Close collaboration with the DEN and The Westin DEN teams allowed CIG to get the vision, and the eventual reality, just right. CIG recommended closing the hotel for media visits three months before the opening event, generating anticipation and interest to guarantee media coverage.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The day of the event, the CIG team escorted 20 print, broadcast and online reporters and photographers through the newly finished space. Sneak-peek, panoramic footage revealed the hotel\u2019s swooping form, which was designed to resemble a bird in flight.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">With a touch of luck, the ferocious wind calmed to a breeze just in time for airport leaders and area dignitaries to detail the hotel\u2019s history. Following the public address portion of the event, two aerialists emerged as planned, climbing the black fabric and artfully commanding the ribbon to its cutting. CIG had arranged \u2013 and concealed for maximum dramatic effect \u2013 these aerialists to bring the ribbon to Denver Mayor Michael Hancock\u2019s scissors.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: 18px;\">\u201cI have to say, this is the most creative ribbon cutting I\u2019ve ever done.\u201d \u2013 Denver Mayor Michael Hancock<\/span><span style=\"font-size: 18px;\">.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">More than 600 attendees closed the event with an uplifting champagne toast.<\/span><\/p>\n<p>[\/et_pb_text][\/et_pb_column][et_pb_column type=&#8221;2_5&#8243;
