Destination Managment
Overview
Destination Management from Meritage transforms unfamiliar locations into seamlessly executed corporate experiences that showcase the best of Texas. We leverage decades of local expertise to handle every detail of your event journey, allowing you to focus entirely on program content and attendee engagement. Whether you’re planning a large conference, executive retreat, or incentive program in Dallas, Austin, or anywhere in the Lone Star State , our team ensures every element reflects your company culture while incorporating authentic Texas hospitality that leaves lasting impressions.
The Meritage Advantage
Our approach to destination management begins with intimate local knowledge that can’t be replicated by out-of-state planners. As true Texans, we don’t just know these cities—we live, dine, and celebrate in them daily, giving us insider access to both iconic destinations and hidden gems that will elevate your program beyond the ordinary.
What distinguishes our DMC services is our unique balance of creative vision and logistical precision. We anticipate potential challenges before they arise, from navigating city permit requirements to coordinating around local events that might impact your program.
Our established relationships with premium vendors, venues, and local partners mean privileged access and preferred treatment for your events. These connections—built over 20 years in the Texas market—allow us to secure exclusive experiences, negotiate favorable terms, and create custom solutions that align perfectly with your objectives and budget parameters.
