William Lanier, Founder, President, CEO
| T: 214-500-1210

William Lanier, founder of Bar10 Events, is one of DFW's most creative and innovative event producers. Since he started Bar10 in May 2006, William has used his talents to bring to life many incredible events that has made Bar10 Events the most sought out event planning company in the region.

Although Bar10 Events started out as a model event staffing company (formally Bar10) and as a way to offset his income as he pursued his acting and modeling career, William soon had the vision to expand the company into a full service event company, making dreams come true.

This vision was soon recognized which lead to him being featured on the TV Show Collegepreneur with Fran Harris. William's passion ensures that the events that he creates has many touches of his own unique sense of style and ensures that the latest industry trends are always incorporated into each event.

William is still very active in the acting and modeling arena with The Campbell Agency and Campbell-Wagner Runway and continues to stay on top of the latest marketing and social media technology trends as he continues his studies at the University of Texas at Dallas in Emerging Media and Communications. William's energy level and visionary outlook continues as he envisions Bar10 Events as a national company, Exceptional Events - Concept to Completion.
