The Devil Is in the Detail

Club Venetian The Devil Is in the Detail

Planning an event is a swirl of exciting, yet controlled chaos. Amid the bigger details, it is easy to overlook some of the smaller things that can make a good event a fantastic one. Below are a few things to keep an eye out for when choosing the perfect event space for weddings or corporate events alike.

Banquet Staff

You go above and beyond to plan an event for your family and friends or colleagues. But, you can only do so much on your own! The right venue will have a dedicated, hardworking staff that is attentive and courteous. They should be quick to accommodate your guests and ensure that everyone’s needs are met at all times. You want your guests to feel like true royalty, and the right venue staff will have them feeling like kings and queens.

Venue Spaces

Lighting, a large dance floor, or catering options are certainly “good venue must-haves”. Aside from that, every venue must have the essentials. Adequate parking, clean restrooms and behind the scenes areas that are a welcome breath of fresh air. While these aren’t necessarily fun details to consider, they are important and certainly ones that your guests will experience throughout the event.

Vendor Relations

Similar to a venue having awesome staff, no one vendor or person can do everything. Prestigious venues have strong relations with the best florists, DJ’s and other professionals in the area. Not only will these relationships save you money, but vendors will also be well versed in the ins and outs of the venue to reduce your stress on the day of. They know where to set up and your event will be a well-oiled machine, leaving you as the star of the show.

Look beyond the traditional aspects of a venue and dig into the nitty-gritty of a place to see if it’s the right fit for your wedding or corporate event. When taking a few extra moments to consider these details, your event will be one to remember for all of the right reasons.

5 Things People Wish They Knew Before Planning a Big Event

Club Venetian What People Wish They Knew Ahead of Time

Many people don’t realize how involved event planning can be until they do it. It’s easy to overlook vital things or miscalculate your budget. Read on to learn important lessons that others wish they knew before planning a big event.

Simple Is Best

Some people get so caught up in quantity that they overlook quality. Simple is best when it comes to event planning. Make decisions that allow you to keep the workload minimal and manageable. For example, you don’t need decorations in every corner. You can instead create a focal point and add a few festive touches elsewhere.

Take Notes and Use a Checklist

Even if you have the best memory in the world, you still need to take notes. Write down information as you get it and build a party checklist. Make sure it is easily accessible at all times. Some event planners use apps that they can access on their phones for added convenience.

Have a Go-To Person for Planning

This one applies to anyone planning their wedding or a large-scale event. Choose someone you trust to be your go-to person. This may be a professional wedding planner or a close friend or relative. Keep them in the loop and give them your checklist so they can help in case of mishaps.

Pick a Theme That Excites You

Choose a theme that makes you feel excited. Make sure you keep this in mind when deciding on decorations, food, and other aspects of your event. It helps you stay focused, ensures everything coordinates well, and keeps you enthusiastic and motivated.

Look at More Than Venue Price

The venue is essential for any party or wedding. Make sure you review more than just price. Make a list of venues that are in your budget and find out if they offer the capacity, atmosphere, and amenities you need. Contact Club Venetian to learn more about space rentals or to plan a tour. We look forward to servicing you and helping to make your event a big success!
