Tips on Planning your own events

There are times you may want to plan an event yourself.

This can happen for any number of reasons like if you are planning the event on a budget. If the event is for your young child’s birthday party, so you don’t need a professional planner. Maybe the guest are a small amount or if you want to get experience planning your own events.

Whatever your reason is, here are a few tips to doing it yourself.

WHERE
Write out how many attendees you will have and pick an appropriate location  that will accommodate your invite list. Does the venue offer a clean-up service? will seating be provided or you have to organise you own tables and chairs?










FOOD

Decide if you will have food at the event and how you will transport it. Will you do all the cooking and be bringing it yourself? If you are, then ask friends and family to help you with it early in advance.



 
ENTERTAINMENT
Most events (birthdays, anniversaries, celebrations) will have entertainment.  Be sure you find out if the venue has speakers, stereo systems, projectors, and microphones if you need them. What will the theme of your party be? Often times your entertainment will coincide with the party theme.









PARKING
Most venues have  parking lots your guests to use, include parking details in your invitation so guests know exactly where to go.










You can plan most small events yourself just by covering these four main areas: Venue Selection; Food; Entertainment and Parking. Good Luck !!! Have Fun!!!!
