Tu es... un(e) explorateur/rice numérique 🪄
You're passionate, determined, and a total boss. You bring panache, energy, and a solid dose of charm to any event you host. Your event needs to be refined, elegant, and impressive. Your event also needs to be buzz-worthy and completely cutting edge. Because you love to be ahead of a trend, think about delivering a creative experience. Something outside of the box. This could mean throwing a traditional event with surprising modern twists. Or bringing out the beauty in an unexpected venue. Or even keeping lots of the details secret until the big day (to build up some hype!).You're super driven and you like to get things done, which is a total super-power when it comes to delivering an awesome event. You're also great at delegating, which means you'd work very well with an event planner. Here's a tip to keep calm and carry on as you gear up for your event...Because you're multi-talented and a solid leader, you can tend toward perfectionism. Remember to ask for help when you need it. When you delegate and trust that everything will get done, you'll be able to loosen up and even have a good time!"For beautiful eyes, look for the good in others; for beautiful lips, speak only words of kindness; and for poise, walk with the knowledge that you are never alone." — Audrey Hepburn🐳 Have a Whale of a Time! 🐳Here are 3 Tricks for Planning an Unforgettable Event1. Check Out the Venue BeforehandIt's super important to get to know your venue before the big event. What areas need to be spruced up with design? What are the best spots for photo ops? Where's your power spot as the host?Take a long walk-about so that you already feel really comfortable on the day of your big event. You always want to be ahead of the game. The more at home you feel in your venue, the more confident of a host you'll be. 2. Create a Signature CocktailCustom cocktails add some extra flavor to your event. They're a crowd-pleaser and conversation-starter. Why not pick two drinks that express two different aspects of your personality?In addition to making your event feel super unique, this is also a budget-friendly option. Especially if you opt for signature cocktails instead of a full bar. You'll be really surprised by how much you can save with this trick.By the way, if you'd rather not serve alcohol at the event, make it a signature mocktail! Grab this list of crowd-favorites. 3. Timing is everythingThe more time you give yourself (and your planning team) to prep for an event, the better. Because the best venues and vendors are often booked out several months in advance. For instance, you definitely want to find your florist at least six months before the big day.Importantly, giving yourself lead-time to snag the perfect venue is clutch. This will also allow you to book at times that are a little less expensive (if that's attractive for your budget). With all things event planning, start early and you'll have the pick of the litter!
