6 Things to Think about when Planning your Special Event:
1). Get Organized
Keep a lists that you continually update through the planning event process. While keeping a thorough list sounds so simple, it is very important because it is the single most important thing to do to maintain productivity. It frees up space in your mind to stop worrying about things, makes tasks more manageable, and helps you not forget anything.
2). Create a Theme
Milestones like Bar/Bat Mitzvahs, Sweet 16s, and Weddings can be even more memorable and exciting with a unique theme. Creative party themes can transform a venue into a Hollywood red carpet scene, an emoji-social media world, or a galaxy far, far away. With tools like Pinterest, Instagram, and Google, there’s so many ways to get inspired and find the perfect theme easily.
3). Send Out Physical Invitations
Even with online invitations becoming increasingly popular, mailed invitations are still the way to go for special events. Physical invitations are help set the tone for a party and build anticipation for what is to come.
4). Keep Things Simple
Make things easier by simplifying. The trend towards minimalism in the last few years is a trend that will be here to stay a while. Not only is minimalism sometimes more aesthetically appealing, it also helps save you time, money, and stress, as too many options can leave you feeling overwhelmed. When in doubt, narrow your options whether it be the number of menu items you have served or the amount of decor you have placed everywhere throughout the venue.
5). At the start of your party, make your guests feel welcome immediately
Always try to greet your guests at the door. Be attentive to them. Graciously acknowledge their gift. Offer them some type of drink, or point them towards some appetizers or maybe a photo booth.
6). Hashtag your party
Hashtagging an event will make it easy for you to collect all of the pictures taken from your party in one convienent place. It will decrease the stress and time of trying to take multiple photos on everyone’s cameras. Encourage guests to hashtag their Instagram, Facebook, or Twitter photos with a unique, catchy phrase. Create a unique printable sign so guests don’t forget what the hashtag is.
