There are three extremely important things to keep in mind when event planning. Adversity happens, your success or failure will not be measured by the incident itself, but by how quickly you can recover from it.
1. The devil is in the details. Plan, confirm, reconfirm. The better the front-end event planning, the easier the on-site execution. You will avoid a lot of drama when it counts.
2. Always have a back-up plan, more drama avoidance!
3. Loyalty is always your best resource. I mean that when the #%@& hits the fan, you may have to go your vendors for instant help, a resolution, or a fix. Those vendors you have treated loyally and fairly will be there to save your bacon. Don’t be a low bid wins producer. Nurture relationships. I have been using some of the same vendors for twenty years, through thick and thin. Together we’ve gone through big budgets, no budgets, and hurricanes, literally. When you need a favour (and believe me, you will) those are the people you can depend on.
If you tie those 3 important event planning rules to heart, you will be on the road to successful event production. Although you may never have to face circumstances like the ones listed below, take a moment to consider what you would do in each of the following real-world situations.
