Founder, John Tobey Events
John Tobey
John Tobey brings a unique energy and sense of vision to each event he designs. During his more than 30 years in the hospitality and planning industry, he has created a reputation for curating unforgettable experiences.
After graduating from Creighton University, John began working for the Ritz-Carlton Hotel Company in Arizona. He brought those experiences back to Colorado and continued his hands-on education, working in sales, marketing, and catering, before becoming the food and beverage director at Castle Pines Country Club. Impressed with the work he did, club members began asking him to be an event planner for events outside the Country Club.
Soon, John Tobey was working so many evenings and weekends that he no longer had time for his day job. His first company, Eventeur, was born. At Eventeur, he produced luxury events for companies and organizations including BMW, Cartier, the Denver Art Museum, the Four Seasons Hotel Denver, Mercedes Benz, Morgan Stanley, Neiman Marcus, and Nordstrom.
In 2010, Eventeur became John Tobey Event Design. The new name better reflected his company’s ethos and the type of personal service that had become the hallmark of his business. Upon beginning his twentieth year in business, John Tobey Event Design became, simply, John Tobey Events.
John’s commitment to his clients and his ability to find ways to incorporate innovative design into each event have enabled him to produce events that gain regional and national acclaim and has established his brand as an industry leader.
As a responsible and committed citizen of Colorado, John has donated his time and talent to numerous philanthropic organizations including; The Eating Disorder Foundation, The National Repertory Orchestra, Denver School of Science and Technology, Wish of a Lifetime, Freedom Service Dogs, Mount Saint Vincent Home, Arrupe Jesuit High School, and the Denver Art Museum.
