Clocktower Events

Clocktower Tables

Serendipity is always excited to work with Clocktower Events.  
Located in the top five floors of the historic Clock Tower in the heart of downtown Denver, the recently renovated space features décor that's elegant and modern, offering guests breathtaking panoramic views of the skyline and mountains, as well as the opportunity to explore behind the mysterious clock faces.


Whether you're looking for a stylish reception hall, or a romantic site for your engagement, or an inspiring facility for your next corporate event or fundraiser, Clock Tower Events is an ideal venue (and one of our personal favorites for winter events.)

Buy Local!  Many gifts in today's marketplace come from halfway around the world, and the impact of transportation contributes significantly to greenhouse emissions and global warming.Local craft fairs and artisan shops are a good source for gifts that come without the added costs of transportation. And gifts made locally often have a story which goes with the gift, since the artisan and the origin of the gift are known.
 
 
The easiest way to cut back on what you're throwing away is to reduce the amount of stuff you bring home in the first place, and a good place to start is with product packaging. After all, packaging makes up 30 percent of America's trash - the largest portion of municipal solid waste generated.


Give battery free gifts. According to the EPA, about 40% of all battery sales occur during the holiday season. Discarded batteries are an environmental hazard. Even rechargeable batteries find their way into the waste stream eventually. 


Ditch the rolls of wrapping paper and avoid glossy or metallic gift wrap. Instead, check out  fabric gift wrap or these creative gift wrap ideas. Use the greeting cards received last year or any other recycled material to make gift tags. For gift bags that come with tags attached, write "Reuse this bag!" on it instead of the recipient's name. (Just don't forget who it goes to.)

Choose a heritage turkey or grass-fed, organically raised roast. Organic winter squash from your backyard, locally grown vegetables from the farmer's market and homemade rolls all create a sustainable, delicious and healthy meal.


Create your centerpiece from natural elements, such as pine wreaths, an arrangement of Poinsettias and beeswax candles.


Bring out the fine china, utensils and cloth napkins. Or pool resources from several houses for large gatherings.

  • Make homemade eggnog, hot chocolate or iced tea in large quantities and prepare pitchers of ice water in advance to set on each table to reduce waste from water and soda bottles or cans.
     
     
     Any food scraps that can't be used for leftovers (or broths) can be composted or given to animals to reduce any potential waste.
     

  • Any non-glossy paper wrapping can be shredded for the compost or added to the recycling bins. Be sure to keep the bows and ribbons for multiple uses, as well as tissue paper, gift bags and boxes. Also, packaging from beverages or food containers should be rinsed and recycled as well.

    "The food was amazing.  You were right - the tenderloin was absolutely worth it.  

    It was a great evening and the food/catering was a huge part of it.  Everyone really enjoyed it and I think everyone had their favorites.  ;) 

    You can consider me a loyal customer.  I would certainly use Serendipity again!
