To have a great event, it requires quite a bit of organization and some creativity. What To Do First Planning an event requires the event organizer to coordinate dozens of details and several individuals. Being ahead of the game is always the best way to ensure that your event will be a success. Regardless of the type of event you are planning, you need to have a topic or an idea of what your goals are for the event. T ypes of Events : • corporate events • office parties • fund-raisers • celebrations/parties • conferences • educational seminars • public lecture with an expert speaker • video showing • public debate between 2 experts Basic “Pieces” of an Event There are several elements that are frequently part of special events. They include: • Topic or goal • A planning team • Budget • Facilities • Event program • Guest services • Event materials • Evaluation • And many more! Topic or Goal • Choosing a topic (for a seminar or conference), a financial goal (for a fundraiser), a program (for a celebration/party), or just a basic purpose for the event. The Planning Team • Assemble the team that will plan the event.
