One of my jobs pre-retirement from an event planning company was to design, make-up and install Christmas decor at a casino near St. Louis. I had to hire a crew of eight to install between 10pm and 2am for three days starting the Monday after Thanksgiving and the same crew, same hours,same 3-day limitation starting the first non-holiday Monday after New Years to take it down and pack it all away.
Looked great, but for the first of the three years I did it, the management at the casino didn't sign the contract until August. Try purchasing large quantities of holiday decor then! Orders for such things is usually done for commercial work in early June. Pickings were somewhat slim! Got 'er done with a little help from my friends.
