Valentines day is a day that most people believe to be the day of love. This day was celebrated with a mouth-watering dinner  which was planner by Botswana Accountancy College  hospitality students .According to  Allen ,Bodwin ,O`Toole, Harris  &  McDonnell(2011) elements of events logistics  can be grouped into logistics systems. These elements include facility, products ,customer supply and site logistics. Food was prepared and served on time. The valentines dinner was a success because all the elements required were taken into consideration and were available. Allen et al (2011) alluded that event planners should be able to supply the products to the customer which is what happed on valentines day. The dinner was attended only by those who had purchased the tickets. Management team should make sure that when planning for outside events they should organise transport for staff and other commodities to meet the requirement of the event.
