It is almost time to look at year end functions again and if it is your job to organise your company’s yearend function – I am sure you need some free event decorating tutorials and tips! In the next few weeks we are going to look at what you need to plan the company yearend function and we will provide you with free planning tools as well as free event decorating tutorials and tips.

This morning when I search for free event decorating tutorials and tips I stumbles upon an awesome website called https://tickera.com/. Not sure what Tickera is? Go here to find out! It’s got nothing to do with our topic but I love giving away useful information!

To get back to the free event decorating tutorials and tips: The internet bombards us with information and most of the time the information is not relevant to you or what you would like to know. Most of the time if you type in free event decorating tips it will give you a lot of substandard ideas or it will even take you to site that will give you wonderful ideas on how to decorate your living room. I find it so frustrating if that happens.

Let’s start on a few tips for your #eventdecor. Get out your pen and paper and start making notes for your event decor.

What is the reason for the event?

First of all you need to decide what the reason is for your function. Is it for a year end function, is it for a product launch, is it for an awards ceremony or is it just a chilled get together for the staff.

Venue

Secondly it is important to get the right venue for your function. Here is a list of a few wonderful venues in the Cape Town area. http://www.weddingvenueguide.co.za/western-cape-wedding-venues.html.  Although the venues is advertised as wedding venues it will work great for corporate functions as well.

When you have the right venue make through row note on the venue. Try and draw a rough sketch of the venue. Include where the doors are, where the lights are and where there are ugly areas that you want to hide. If your function is outside – make sure that you have a plan B if the weather is bad. Make sure you make notes on plug points, electricity, water supplies etc.

Budget

What is your budget for this event? Can you hire what you need or would you need to work on a low budget? Making most of the décor yourself? What if a venue is so ugly and you don’t have the budget on making it more pretty… what would the easiest way be on hiding some of the imperfections? 

·         First of all try to dim the lights or use free standing lights at the walls

·         Make use of as much as possible low lighting methods like candles

·         If you have the money do some wall or roof draping – Want to know how to do it yourself? http://www.ectacreativesolutions.com/shop/draping-foundation-video-course/

Beautiful wall draping

·         If you can’t do all the walls at least try and do the focus wall with draping – by that I mean the area where the speeches is going to be or where the awards is going to be presented.

In our next blog we will chat a little bit more on #freeeventtutorials and tips
