Maximising impact for your money on your next event

"We want to have a great party event but we have not got a big budget what can we do"

This is a quote I have heard a lot over the last couple of years from clients as budgets are cut compared to previous years

The phrase not a big budget is relative.The secret is to use the money available in the most effective and and memorable way

I will describe below an event Wizardry Events help put together at the end of last year to a client that had the initial perception that their budget was not enough for what they really wanted

After listening to what was important to them and the effect they were looking for with the attendees we decided on a Fun Interactive Trip To The Seaside event

The group attending were young fun people who just wanted to have a great time

Having discarded some high cost nice to haves and adding a forth dimension concept with the smell of the seaside/ fairground using foods of the fair we were able to produce a fun memorable event well within given budgets

An Event Of Pure Poetry

Pinterest: Follow link for images

Well last month threw up a nice challenge with an intimate awards event to be held at the Rochdale Museum

The table centres had to represent all the trades that the original pioneers specialised in

With much thought the table centre shown on the above Pinterest link was born with a pyramid of glass bowls on a mirror base with a mixture of raw materials and skill representations.Also images if the pioneers and advertisements from the time were scattered around the base

It is not often you are asked to come up with a table centre that tells a story but the client was over the moon with this finished product

The other unusual aspect of this event was that the client wanted a presenter/actor to read out a welcome and then thank you pieces to all the award winners dressed as a pioneer but all in rhyme!!!!!!

With Wizardry events extensive contacts we used a local poet to collate information on all the award winners and produce a verse of poetry for each award winner or team winner

We then had these printed on special scrolls for the award winners to keep and cherish

Feedback from this event was exceptional from the perfect venue and room dressing to the welcome in rhyme from the Rochdale Pioneer to all the guests and the unique poem that said a thank you to all award winners

All involved at Wizardry ensured the client got a unique experience in a fun way exactly to their original remit
