Event Recap: Dan's Taste of Two Forks

NEC Team • July 9, 2024

Cooking Up Excitement In The Hamptons

The NEC team was thrilled to be back at the Southampton Arts Center with Dan’s Papers for the Taste of Two Forks event!

This week in the Dan’s Taste Series, we had the pleasure of building a new activation featuring an elegant swing and flower wall. It was a great hit among attendees and created countless beautiful photo opportunities.

NEC once again had the joy of putting together the VIP lounge for the event. Here we showcased our comfortable outdoor rattan furniture, as well as rustic bars and wooden beach chairs. This combination complimented the natural color theme that was seen throughout the event!

The event also featured additional custom items including a custom DJ Facade to match the event theme as well as a custom Step & Repeat with a matching carpet to fit the theme.

In true Hamptons fashion, Dan's Papers ended the night with a thrilling after party. Our team transformed the space with professional lighting technology, as well as Dan's Papers themed LED logo projections. The after party featured a plethora of additional excitement including a performance by DJ Theo, Justin Scheidling on percussion, themed costume dancers, and more!


It’s a true joy working with the Dan’s Papers team. From gourmet bites and perfectly crafted cocktails, to the exciting musical entertainment and more, every moment was a taste of sensation for attendees! We can't wait to work with Dan's Papers again soon for their next event later this month at Gurney's of Montauk!
