Our Clientele

What They Say

We wouldn’t dream of doing a special event without the capable, efficient and smart folks at PDA. Whenever we have a lighting or sound challenge – they always find the best solution.

Anne Lee, Executive Director, Darkness to Light

PDA has been my preferred vendor for lighting and sound on projects large and small including Piccolo Spoleto, Charleston Fashion Week, Charleston Food + Wine, Cowboy Couture and the Darkness to Light Gala. If you are looking for professional service coupled with integrity and a top notch team, PDA is your best option.

Rebecca Gosnell, Gosnell & Company, Marketing and Event Management Services

PDA has been a partner of the BB&T Charleston Wine + Food Festival since its inception, and what they bring to the table is invaluable. Over the years we have become a family, and I would recommend them to everyone.

Randi Weinstein, Events + Logistics Manager, BB&T Charleston Wine + Food Festival

We have used PDA for a number of years now, and we always know we can count on them to deliver. Simply put – we trust them to make us look good – and they do.

Bob Moran, General Manager & Tournament Director, Family Circle Cup

I have had the pleasure of working with PDA on 12 events which attracted media personalities and congressional and political leaders, including a wide field of presidential candidates. The team at PDA has always exhibited an exemplary work ethic, doing what it takes to get the job done.

Sharon Helton, Senior Director of Events, Family Research Council

PDA’s idea to light up Fort Sumter was perfect in that it was appropriate, sensitive, and cost-effective. There is no other company holds our esteem, our trust, and our alliance.

W. Blake Hallman, Chair, Sesquicentennial Committee - Fort Sumter - Fort Moultrie Historical Trust

This has been the best, most well-organized event I have done and I do a lot of them! You guys are sharp and on point, I like that.
