7 SECRETS BEHIND PLANNING THE PERFECT PARTY
“I've learned that people will forget what you said, people will forget
what you did, but people will never forget how you made them feel.” –
Maya Angelou
SORRY YOU’RE NOT ON THE LIST
We live in an era dominated by technology; constantly seeking quicker, cheaper, more convenient alternatives. However sending imaginative,
interesting physical invitations to your party adds a certain je ne sais quoi and can really make your party stand out from the crowd!
BUT, HOW ARE WE GOING TO GET THERE?
Taking into consideration how attendees are going to get to and from your party can really make all the difference. Pre-booking taxis or coaches
can really add to people’s enjoyment of your event, helps to avoid long waits and is often cheaper.
WHY NOT CONSIDER GREEN ALTERNATIVES WHEN ARRANGING THE TRANSPORTATION
FOR YOUR PARTY?
AN AWARD WINNING VENUE?
Research, research, research. Read reviews, go on site visits and meet the staff that are going to be hosting your event. Finding the right venue can be a time
consuming process but really does make all of the difference in the end!
THE IMPORTANT STUFF!
What are people going to eat and drink? It is so important to have an understanding of the group demographic when
making decisions on F&B. Ensure you take dietary requirements into account. Make sure you set spending limits to avoid a nasty shock at the end of your party!
QUICK TIP: WHY NOT USE SHARING PLATTERS TO ENCOURAGE
GROUPS THAT DON’T KNOW ONE ANOTHER TO INTERACT?
HOW IT LOOKS CAN MAKE ALL THE DIFFERENCE
Theming and décor can elevate your event from the ordinary to the incredible. Themes really help people to engage with your party.
The right props and decoration can totally transform a venue and transport guests to somewhere incredible!
NOW THAT’S ENTERTAINMENT
Be imaginative when selecting entertainment for your event. Choose acts that are suitable for the audience and that will become a real vocal point of the evening.
AN EVENT MANAGER’S TOP TIP
The best way to keep on track for your party and make sure that nothing is missed is by creating a timeline and a checklist which can be checked off
prior to your event. This simple step will help you stay organised and will ultimately ensure that you throw the perfect party!
