How will your event look? Take a minute, take five minutes. What do you see? How do you want it to look? Called visualization, this exercise done at the beginning of planning an event is helpful because you can let your creative juices flow and think about what you want to see happening. For example: If you are a bride to be what you would like to see happening at the reception. What colors do you see? Do you see a band or DJ? What does the room look like? I would do this even before you look at all the wedding magazines. Are you planning a fund raiser? What kind of activities do you see? What kind of food? Sit down or stations? What kind of entertainment? Let the mind wander and most of all write it down.
Having an idea of what you want to happen will help guide you to possible themes, locations and dare I say budgets. This vision many change somewhat from the beginning, but it lays the groundwork. Good groundwork makes for great events.
That’s the Planner’s Pointer for today.
