Planning  of an event

Corporate dinner

The process of planning an event involves the event manager moving through  a number of steps. To succeed in event planning the event manager should keep a range of matters in mind (Shone &Parry).This matters are being able to monitor progress, communicate with the employees and motivate those responsible for carrying out the planning of the event. According to Allen (2009) it is important for an event planner to do a feasibility study when planning for an event. This includes  venue, availability of volunteers, management skills required and sponsors. Lillicrap & Cousins  (2010) alluded that when setting for an event ,of all people attending the event it should be determined how many people will be seating at the top table and if they need any special requirements

During the event setup, the clients chose their own colour and how they want their venue to be decorated. According to Lovelock and Weitzy(2011)  colour is a good  mood enhancer to those customers who might feel bored during the event. Customers should choose the type of music that they prefer because   music is also important in an event because it breaks cultural barriers between people and brings them together(Allen 2009).
