Chantico Events

Melbourne Corporate Event Styling

Corporate Event Styling, Built Around Your Brief, Your Brand And Your Budget. Forward-Thinking. Thoughtful. On Every Surface

Chantico Events is a Melbourne styling studio brought in by event managers and brand teams who want forward-thinking, on-trend styling that’s functional, on-brand, and built around your brief.

The Chantico Approach

Every Activation Starts With Your Brief, Your Brand And Your Mood Board.

Chantico is a Melbourne styling studio brought in by event managers and brand teams who want styling that’s actually thought through. Forward-thinking. On-trend. Functional, not just pretty. Considered on every surface, built around your brief, your brand and your venue, with every styling decision tracking back to the activation it’s meant to create.

Brand-Led From The First Brief

Every styling decision starts with your brand guidelines, your brief and your tone. Florals, lighting, furniture, stage and décor are all sourced to reflect the brand and the activation they’re built for.

One Stylist, Start To Pack-Down

Hayley owns the brief end to end. No account managers, no handoffs, no lost details. One stylist who knows your brand, your run sheet, your bump-in window and the build by heart.

Considered On Every Surface

Stage, lounge, entrance, signage, bar, lighting, photo corner. Every surface is part of the brand experience. And every surface is styled to look polished, work functionally, and hold up under camera and crowd.

Why Chantico

A Melbourne Styling Studio Built Around Your Brief, Your Brand And Your Budget

Every corporate activation Chantico takes on runs through the same hands-on process. Brief-first thinking, one stylist owning the build, zero handoffs.

01 Styling Built Around Your Brief

Colour, tone, texture and mood board all start with your brand guidelines. Florals, furniture, lighting and décor map to the activation, the venue and the brand they’re built for.

02 One Stylist, Zero Handoffs

Hayley runs the brief from first email through to pack-down. No account managers, no lost details, no “whose job is that” the morning of build day.

03 Trusted Supplier To Event Managers

Working with an event management company already? Chantico slots in as your trusted styling specialist. Brief-driven, vendor-friendly, easy to coordinate on timelines, deliverables and bump-in windows.

04 Built To Brief, Built To Budget

Tight budget, tight timeline, tight brief? Hayley’s specialty is delivering the best possible outcome from what you’ve got. Premium feel, smart sourcing, zero shortcut on the brand.

05 Signage And Branding Integration

Step-and-repeat, stage backdrops, branded signage, on-brand props. Integrated into the styling brief from day one, never bolted on the week before.

06 Elevated, Considered, On-Trend

Forward-thinking, considered, intentional styling. Your brand should feel elevated, on-trend and warm in the room. That’s the whole point of the studio.

Is Chantico The Right Fit For Your Activation?

How It Works

Three Steps, From First Concept Call To Build-Day Pack-Down

1 The Concept Call

Book a free 30-minute call. Walk Hayley through the brand, the brief, the venue, the budget and the non-negotiables. We scope what’s possible inside your numbers and your timeline before we lock a single supplier.

2 The Brand Brief

Chantico builds a styling brief around your brand. Colour palette, florals, lighting design, furniture, décor and signage integration. You review with your team, approve, and we lock in the suppliers.

3 The Activation

Bump-in starts pre-event. The Chantico team handles every styling detail on build day. Post-event, full pack-down and venue reset. Your team and event manager run the day. Your brand finally walks the room.

Meet The Stylist

Hi, I'm Hayley. I Run Every Activation Myself.

I started Chantico because I wanted to build a styling studio where every brief is actually thought through. Forward-thinking, on-trend, functional, elevated. Every brief I take on, I run myself. I’m in the email thread, on the mood board, in the sourcing, and on the floor for bump-in day. That’s the whole point. No layers, no handoffs. One stylist who actually reads the brief.

Packages

Three Corporate Packages. Priced To Your Brief.

Every Chantico corporate activation is custom-quoted to the brief. Here’s the shape of the three core packages and what each one typically includes. Exact pricing comes in your concept call.

The Studio Activation

For smaller corporate functions, product demos and internal team events.

The Brand Experience

Product launches, brand activations and mid-size corporate events.

The Signature Showcase

Full-scale conferences, galas and multi-zone brand experiences.

Chantico also handles weddings and Starlight Cinema Soirées. Mention it on your concept call if you’re looking at one of those instead.

FAQ

Everything You're Probably Wondering

How much does styling a corporate event with Chantico cost?

Every brief is different, so every quote is custom. Smaller corporate activations typically start in the low five figures, mid-size brand experiences sit higher, and full conference and gala styling scopes higher again. We size the scope to your budget on the concept call and quote it transparently before any work starts.

Do you work with our existing venue, AV and catering partners?

Yes. A lot of Chantico’s corporate work is brought in by event management companies and brand teams who already have their venue, AV crew and caterer locked. We slot in as your styling specialist, coordinate directly with your existing vendors, and run the brief alongside your event manager.

How early should we book a corporate activation?

Eight to twelve weeks out is the sweet spot for full brand activations and conferences, so the brief, sourcing, signage and floor plan all have room to breathe. Tighter timelines are workable on smaller scopes — mention your run-out date on the concept call and we’ll tell you straight if it’s possible.

Can you integrate our brand guidelines, signage and step-and-repeat?

That’s the whole point. Brand guidelines, fonts, colours, logos, step-and-repeat, stage backdrops, signage and on-brand props are baked into the styling brief from the first call, never bolted on at the end. Your brand should feel like the brand the second guests walk into the room.

Do you travel outside Melbourne for corporate events?

Chantico is Melbourne-based and most briefs stay in metro Melbourne. Regional Victoria and interstate activations are case-by-case depending on scope, timeline and travel logistics. Mention it on your concept call and we’ll work out whether it’s a fit.

What's the difference between Chantico and the venue's in-house stylist?

Venue in-house teams style around the venue’s catalogue and house packages, often running similar setups across brands. Chantico styles around your brand, your brief and your activation. Forward-thinking, on-trend, brand-led, and functional. A different starting point delivers a different finished room.
