Hot Stuff

In an event themed around The Elements, Colorado destination management company DSC (970-476-6565; dsc-co.com) created the Fire corner with lots of orange colors and real fire. Tables were covered in red velvet, and the flowers were birds of paradise and burnt-orange roses. Organizers lit candles of varying heights atop tables and the bar, and served red martinis, cinnamon liqueurs and flaming Dr. Peppers. In the cold drinks: ice cubes that blinked orange and red. The company also hired fire performers to entertain the group.
