Since the company’s inception 15 years ago, Mordecai and her business partner Gareth Heyman, dubbed the “Wizard of All Things,” have made it their mission to provide full-service experiences for some of the world’s most lucrative businesses, including Merrill Lynch, MasterCard International and Shell. Not only does MorEvents plan parties, they also provide business meetings, database development, transportation, marketing, promotions, hospitality and more for their high-profile client base.
Despite their lighthearted image, MorEvents is serious about catering to their customers with remarkable competence, resourcefulness and follow-through. They start each event planning process with a client meeting to get a handle on everyone’s expectations, and then begin scouting locations and gathering resources before walking the client through the entire process.
Accomplishing these major feats for clients requires a lot of hard work. “At MorEvents, we can take the most complex problem and make it look simple,” they said. With employee titles like “Go-To Genie,” “Mastermind” and “Dream Weaver,” it is apparent that at MorEvents, creating upscale experiences is akin to performing magic spells.
Mordecai, a Denver native, UCLA graduate and “natural born planner,” has grown her enterprise into a successful brand by paying attention to the tiniest details of every event. She is so committed to providing the best possible experience, in fact, that she once spent a day changing bed sheets at a hotel in France so that her Bausch & Lomb guests would have a more comfortable stay. Even though she has a keen organizational eye, keeping track of such extensive projects sometimes gets hectic, and that’s when she relies on Heyman, whom she refers to as her “calm in the storm.”
Still, Mordecai wouldn’t be known as the Queen if she didn’t follow her own royal code: “Take nothing for granted and make no assumptions.”
