Gavin MacDonell started Through the Looking Glass in May 2002,
sensing a need for a customer focussed themeing company with experience,
professionalism, creativity, and an innovative approach. Gavin has
worked in the event production and themeing industry nationally
and internationally for two decades and has experience in all of
its facets. Earlier this year, visual merchandising whiz kid, Dale
Latter joined the Through the Looking Glass. His skills and experience
extend the company’s capability to deliver spectacular outcomes
for our growing client base.
We provide creative strategies to realise our customers themes.
Our valued clients have included the department of the Queensland
Premier, Suncorp Metway, the Brisbane Powerhouse Centre for Live
Arts, the Restaurant and Caterers Association of Australia, B 105
FM and we continue to service their themeing needs.
Some of Through the Looking Glass recent achievements:
- For the third year running, Through the Looking Glass designs
won first prize for the Grand Chancellor Hotels entry in the River
Festival’s Longest Dinner on the Melbourne St Bridge.
- We have worked with Paul Taylor, an eyewear specialist, to
design a successful national visual display strategy.
- Production, themeing, design and installation, for the Suncorp
Metway Ball at the Riverside Centre, Brisbane.
Testimonials
When in comes to event themeing and support, Gavin MacDonell
and his team at Through the Looking Glass
have been my personal number one choice. Over the last 8 years
I have called upon the team whilst at Suncorp
and now at Restaurant & Catering Queensland
due to their artistic brilliance and professionalism.
Given a tight budget to work with, Gavin and his team were
able to provide us with a spectacular themed room for our
National Restaurant & Catering Awards night at Coolum
in 2004. We look forward to continuing our relationship with
Gavin and his team in our future events.

| After several years of working with Through the Looking
Glass, it is always great to sit back and reflect on
ones achievement.
Winning first place for “Riverfeast – Dinner
on the Bridge” two times and runner up two times over
a six year period along with winning first place for “Riverfeast
– Table Decorating” two times comes as no mean
feet.
With many years of creating different themes and atmosphere
for corporate Christmas parties and conferences “Through
the Looking Glass” has always produced a theme
that keeps blowing people away when they walked into their
room.
Guys I can only thank you for all of your creativity, personality
and true support over these past seven years – you are
one in a million!!
