Event: Canon's Eco-friendly Reception


On March 7th , Canon paved the way towards an environmentally sound future with their eco-friendly reception, held during Staples’s Annual Training Symposium. The event was designed to show off Canon’s commitment to developing eco-friendly products. The stage was literally set with gorgeously decorated trees, while the waterfalls on the side added to the dramatic picture. The guests had a great time playing mini-golf and shooting hoops, while the more adventurous got their photos taken with cool Maria Sharapnova and Angelina cut-outs.

All in all, it was a picture perfect event!

Recent Event: Mars Canada

On November 19th, Events by Parris assisted employees from Mars Canada Inc. in celebrating another great year. Our theme was Latin Fever and we certainly raised the temperature in the venue that night!The Mariachi band started off the evening with their cocktail hour show--and then led the whole crowd (members of which were still dancing!) into the main space Salsa dancers twirled through the crowd; cozy lounges create the perfect spot for coworkers to mingle; and the DJ got everyone pumped up.

What a fantastic night... Ole!!
