The Travelers Companies
Mary Jo Wiseman, CMP, Event Management


"A very special thank you to all of you for helping to make the Ocean Marine dinner and game show the success it was on such short notice. By all accounts it was a huge success. The food was incredible, the space was absolutely lovely, the wait staff was very attentive, and I do believe the game show was a bit hit. I look forward to working with you all again, hopefully in the not too distant future. Please do keep in touch!"

State Higher Education Executive Officers (SHEEO)
Gladys Kerns, Director of Administrative Executive Officers


"Sullivan Custom Planning was the first professional event planner I have ever used for a large event. SCP staff made booking and executing a lobster bake in Newport a joyous and memorable event. Our guest were truly blown away by the beautiful venue, festive tables and absolutely delicious food. Thank you for a wonderful conference for our members who work so hard all year!"



CVS Caremark
Dianne Martin, Manager of Corporate Meetings


"Sharon and Nadine, I want to thank you both so very much for everything you do for our holiday party. It gets better and better every year and it's because of you both that it is such a success!"



Barnes Group, Inc.
Charlene A. Chaplinski, Manager Corporate Meetings & Travel


"After working with several DMC companies around the United States and Europe during the past 30 years, I have found Sullivan Custom Planning to be one of the most knowledgeable and creative in their area of expertise. Rarely has a supplier given us complete cooperation from the initial planning meeting through the execution of the event. Each event and tour was completed within the budget and at time even below budget. If you are looking for a 'first class' DMC, than look no further than Sullivan Custom Planning!"



Blue Cross Blue Shield of Rhode Island
Kathleen A. Wallitsch, CMP; Manager, Meetings & Events


"Thank you for very much for executing a magnificent event for us. Walk Rhode Island has grown over the years as our signature corporate event; and it has been because of your attention to detail and your seasoned event planning skills. Your consistent commitment to organization and planning was invaluable to me. SCP always has great ideas and is very creative, which is very important in our field. I plan to contact SCP in the future with all of our large events!"



NASTD Telecommunications & Technology
Karen S. Britton, Convention & Meetings Director


"Sullivan Custom Planning's attention to detail, ability to work with budget and 'no worries' attitude in the midst of the storm are enough to allow me to recommend your services to all who might inquire. The background, professionalism, and enthusiasm that I seek in a destination management company are found with SCP! Non-profit organizations do not have an unlimited budget, but SCP managed to pull together companion tours, off-site and hotel events that truly gave the perception of 'deep pockets.' Thank you so much!"



Lockheed Martin Corporation
