eXtravaganza

What eXtravaganza does

eXtravaganza is a privately held, full-service event design, décor, and prop rental company headquartered at 1121 Industrial Drive in Matthews, North Carolina, serving the Charlotte metropolitan area. The company designs, plans, and executes themed events for weddings, high school proms and dances, corporate functions, social and charity gatherings, trade shows, and casino nights. It claims a 30,000+ sq. ft. warehouse housing 20,000+ sq. ft. of props and décor and self-positions as the largest company of its kind between Atlanta, GA and Washington, D.C., with 30,000+ successful events completed over its operating history.

The product portfolio is anchored by Event Design & Planning and Props & Décor Rentals, supplemented by verticalized service offerings (Wedding Décor, Prom Theme Rentals, Corporate Event Theme Planning, Casino Rentals) and a set of themed décor packages (Enchanted, Hollywood, Crystal, Horror, Carnival & Circus, Decade, and Oktoberfest). The underlying technology is primarily physical: in-house custom prop fabrication, a large owned inventory of themed 3D props, drapery, and decorative assets, and full-service delivery, setup, and teardown operations executed by an in-house team.

The business model is project-based with quote-driven pricing. Minimums apply by channel — $500 for warehouse pickup rentals, $1,000 for full-service events including delivery, labor, and setup/teardown. Go-to-market is sales-led and event-driven: a WordPress website with a contact form initiates sales; event specialists support planning; educational blog content (wedding trends, prom themes, casino-night planning) drives top-of-funnel demand; and showroom consultations at the Matthews warehouse support mid-funnel conversion. Customer acquisition channels include organic search, Facebook/Instagram, Yelp, and friend referrals. The team is led by founder/owner Mark Middlesworth (Chief Party Officer), with senior creatives including Teresa Norman (Senior Designer, 30+ years), Phillip Clark (Art Director, 20+ years), and Holly Lunn (Senior Special Events Manager / Sales Manager, 30+ years in hospitality).
