Long Beach, CA, July 11, 2008 --(PR.com)-- Bravo Productions of Long Beach, Calif., has been nominated for the ISES Esprit Awards from the International Special Events Society (ISES) in the categories of Best Corporate Event Planning – Budget Under $75,000 and Best Event Design/Décor – Budget $25,000 - $75,000.

Founded in 1987, Bravo Productions is an award winning, full-service, event planning, design and production company specializing in staging corporate functions nationwide to support clients’ strategic marketing campaigns.

Both Esprit Award nominations are for an event produced for Enterprise Rental Car – Fleet Services Division in celebrating the company’s 50th anniversary and held in conjunction with its annual sales and administration recognition program, which took place last August in Palm Springs, California. Themed, “Anniversary Lifetime Cruise – S.S. Enterprise,” the event not only recreated an actual sea-going experience in a hotel function space, it commemorated Enterprise’s founder, Jack Taylor, who was proud to serve his country in World War II, and his combat missions originated from the U.S.S. Enterprise, a navy ship. It was after Taylor returned to St. Louis that he founded Enterprise Rental Car with a fleet of seven vehicles.

“We are extremely honored by these nominations, and are lucky to have such a great, great client as Enterprise,” says Greg Jenkins, partner of Bravo Productions. “The importance of global industry recognition helps improve industry standards internationally and further promote our professionalism.”
