How to organize a successful event
The organization process of an event can be complex. Keep the necessary foresight with the support of our guide.
How do I start with the event planning?
Weddings, conferences, company events, presentations, exhibitions, concerts, meetings, staff parties, team events, birthdays or anniversaries.. Planning events always starts with setting out the framework first:
- Date: when should the event take place? Is there a given time frame? Are holidays or public holidays nearby?
- Topic/Theme of the event: what is the event about? A birthday party, jubilee or a wedding? Should there be an overriding theme to everything?
- Objective of the event: what message should be communicated? Is the goal simply an entertaining celebration? Or would you like to raise awareness for a brand? Of course a combination of objectives is possible.
- Event budget: is there a prescribed budget? What is the limit?
- Guests: who will be a part of the event? How many guests will it be? Where do they come from? Are the participants friends, relatives, employees or customers?
How to define a budget for an event
First, divide the available budget for your event into the following areas:
- Spaces / Locations: e.g. event hall, exhibition space, restaurant
- Catering: e.g. lunch, dinner, aperitif, coffee and cake, breaks, drinks, bar
- AV: equipment (stage, lighting, sound system, projector, screen,..) and support
- Accommodation
- Transfer: e.g. bus/shuttles, car rentals
- Decoration: e.g. flowers, branding, signage
- Marketing: e.g. advertising on social media, invitations,..
- Program: e.g. speaker, host, musicians, fotographer, videographer
Tip: Divide the costs into fixed costs and variable costs. This means in costs that are independent of or dependent on the number of guests.
How do I find the right location?
Probably the most important decision when planning an event concerns the event location.
It is worth investing a some thought here. Many decisive factors depend on the location.
Depending on the requirements and wishes that arise from the thoughts at the start, an image or at least the needs that are placed on the event location are formed.
There are numerous event locations in Switzerland. In order to find the right fit for your occasion, these thoughts may help you navigate:
- How many guests need to fit?
- What are the requirements for the surroundings of the location?
- What is the event program? How much space is needed? Is there a need for an event hall, a stage, a restaurant, an outdoor area or several rooms?
- Where should it be located? What needs to be considered with regard to accessibility? Does it need to be close to an airport or train station? Where do they come from?
- Should it be a location or event service provider?
- Should catering be offered by the location itself?
- What type of architecture is preferred?
- What AV is needed or is available?
The choice of locations usually results in the remaining details of the framework.
How to invite to the event
It doesn't matter whether it's a public or private event. The guests or participants at your event need to be reached.
For private events, employee parties or internal company events, send an invitation with the general information to the most important people as soon as possible.
At public events such as congresses or exhibitions, advertise on the channels where you can best reach your target group.
How to design the event program
The variety of options for running an event can be overwhelming. It's best to think about what goal you are pursuing with the event. Is it about more awareness, image, customer loyalty, a celebration, or a specific message/topic? What experiences should be offered?
Then you can plan the main and supporting program:
- talks
- music contributions
- presentations
- Breaks / catering: aperitif, coffee, number of courses
How do I find the right service providers for my event?
Now you know which service providers you need for your event. In general, the fewer service providers, the less effort there is for coordination and organization, since agreements can become complicated.
Ideally, when choosing the event locations, you have already decided on a place that covers many areas. At Chrischona Berg, it is particularly important to us to support you in planning your event and to offer you an all-round package. All from a single source.
