Having worked in the events industry for several decades, we know a thing or two about event planning. We even have a blog on the top event planning companies in the UK – check it out if you’re looking for an event planner.

Here are some of our top tips for large-scale event planning:

1. Choose the date wisely – the first thing to do when planning your event is to nail down a date. Make sure you choose your date wisely and avoid public holidays or busy times within the industry. For example, if you’re planning an event for a Formula 1 team, don’t pick a date in the middle of race season. Make sure you also check the dates of any local events or festivals so that you don’t clash with them. The last thing your guests want is to get stuck in traffic for a local event happening on the same day.  

2. Select a Suitable Venue – how many people are you aiming to have attend? Are they all based in a similar area? Are you planning any entertainment? These are the types of questions you should consider when selecting your venue. Choose somewhere that is the right size, in a good location and has enough space for you to host the way you want to.

3. Book in Advance – Large-scale events take a lot of planning, so make sure you book things in advance. Once you have a date and venue secured, you can book your props, centrepieces and decorations with Table Art. We take bookings (years/months) in advance so you can ensure your event décor is in place.

4. Choose Your Theme – nothing makes an event more memorable than a well-planned and executed theme. Consider what your guests may enjoy and how you can make it work. At Table Art, we can cater for a variety of themes for large-scale events. Take a look at our 150 event theming ideas here. Focus on creating a positive and memorable experience for attendees through engaging programming, comfortable accommodations, networking opportunities, and excellent customer service.

5. Communicate With Your Guests – depending on the type of event you are planning, you may already have a guest list, in which case you can communicate event information with your guests effectively. If your event is more public and you are selling tickets, then communication may look a little different. You may want to market your event online – either way, it’s important you use suitable communication methods to connect with your guests.
