Your volunteers who have tirelessly worked behind the scenes to share the mission, to keep the focus, to stay the course – wouldn’t it be nice to acknowledge them this coming holiday season? Plan simple, meaningful attributes for them. Think outside the box and it’s amazing what you can come up with. So as the season is changing, now is the time to put on your planning and thinking cap and thank those who did indeed continue to stand beside you.
There are great party rental companies out there in which to work with to choose your colors of linens. And thankfully, renting is not expensive. The linens arrive crisp and ironed and at the end of the wedding, you just shake them out, pile them in the linen bag ready for pick up.
Halloween is only five weeks away. Time to start planning your party theme.

It’s imperative that you create or have your coordinator create a day-of timeline for your wedding. This should include all of the vendors’ comings and goings, input from your venue, and make sure it follows accurate sequence. Then once you have this in place, have someone be the keeper of the s...
For your wedding, it’s imperative that you create or have your coordinator create a day-of timeline. This should include all of the vendors’ comings and goings, input from your venue, and make sure it follows accurate sequence.
When it comes to your wedding budget, how important is your floral budget. If flowers are something that stand out for you, then appropriate more for this and choose another category that has less meaning for the two of you.

Getting the details down is key to the success of your event – whether it is a fund-raiser, anniversary celebration, a wedding, or a grand opening. Think about the expectations of your audience and then use this as a baseline to put into place the details that will make it memorable and successful...
Learn who your donor is when fundraising. Find out what makes them tick. And then find ways to get their attention and draw them in. Such as a hobby or a special interest – and make it believable.
Look for the special details to bring out the best of your event. Whether it’s in the décor, the food, or the entertainment – tie it altogether.

It’s hard to imagine planning for the holiday season in the month of September! But as things open up, venues and vendors are already getting bookings. So start planning ahead to be prepared. Items to consider: event size, venue, budget, booking questions, venue’s preferred vendor list.
College football season is coming quickly. So don’t pack up the picnic items just yet. You will need them to start planning for tailgate parties.
In working with your wedding theme, investigate renting props to tie the theme together. It’s not necessary a huge expense and will make your wedding more memorable.
You're engaged! So now begins the planning process. Start writing everything down. Don't think about prioritizing - just keep this running dialogue with yourself. Putting priorities on each comes later.
Work with your venue rep or planner to design schematics for the flow of your reception layout. Where to put the dance floor so that the DJ has the best visibility. Do you want to have a sweetheart table. Where to place the bar so that if lines ensue, they aren’t bothering other guests. A buffet area? Make it accessible to as many guests as possible.
As a fundraiser, get into the habit of learning about your patrons. Gauge when it is smart to push for them to donate and when to wait. Sometimes this just takes time, but the end result is so rewarding!
If you are planning on serving dessert at your next event, make sure to consider how it will complement your main meal. If it is a wedding, do you want the traditional wedding cake or a dessert bar? If it’s an anniversary celebration, do you want to serve the guests of honor’s favorite dessert? If it’s a corporate event, do you want it to tie in with what the company is promoting?

Keep simple. We’ve heard that phrase time and time again. And today we recognize and honor that phrase – so be mindful throughout today and – keep it simple.
Couples can ask a friend or family member to officiate at their wedding. Laws have changed by states, and you can now choose someone to do this honor – check out local county laws to make sure this person registers and follows the laws to perform the ceremony.
If you are having a large number of guests and the venue cannot handle the number without ordering additional restrooms, search for a restroom service provider that handles units with flushing toilets, running water at the sinks, interior lighting and automatic scenters. Do not look at companies that their main product is used at construction sites or large events such as concerts. They will not provide the kind of unit that would inspect to use.

When choosing the music entertainment for your event, sometimes the theme, guest list and/or venue location can help you decide. Bands are usually more expensive and may require you to also provide special lighting and a stage. DJ’s take up less room if you are working in a tight space. But the vi...
Floral budgets are increasing as the cost of distributing flowers worldwide has increased. If your budget is limited, we suggest you work with a florist to bring in subtle color options mixed in with lots of greenery. Greenery can be so peaceful and serene and less costly.
For most non-profits, the fiscal year begins July 1st. So what strategies have you put in place to learn from last year when it comes to competing with other non-profits for donations? Maybe a few small gatherings in donor homes would be a way to get to know your donors and share the value of what you do. A planner can help you create these events.
Now that events are getting scheduled and planned, one of the aspects will be the food. How do you proceed? Check out our weekly blog this coming Wednesday to read about 3 of our recommendations.
