What is the best way to start an event coordinating business?

One of the best ways to start an event planning business if you have no prior events or business experience is through volunteering or an internship.
Volunteering at events or within an event management company will provide you with valuable on the job experience so you can learn what is required prior to starting a company.
An internship offers very similar benefits in that you get the opportunity to learn about the industry from the ground, make mistakes and see what areas of event planning you also enjoy the most. The great thing about an internship is that if you are working with an events company as an intern you can have access to “shadow” the business owner and other decision-makers to learn more about the operations side of the business as well, not just planning and design.
Once you have those steps completed you can begin exploring the more practical steps of starting a business such as finding a name, registering the business and setting up your branding and operational structures.

Wedding Traditions-Spain

If you’re thinking of a Spanish wedding theme, spring is the favourite time of year. You may worry that this could be an expensive affair, with around 200 guests at the average Spanish wedding, but fear not, guests are encouraged to give money as a gift, normally a minimum of 75 euros which should hopefully help to cover the costs of such a large celebration. Most Spanish weddings start in the early evening, with the most popular time for the ceremony to be 7pm, and it’s quite common for the guests to party until dawn. The wedding gown ( traje de novia) traditionally had lots of lace decoration to match the mantilla (lace veil) which can be very long. Traditionally the godfather of the bride buys the bouquet, and delivers it with a poem on the morning of the wedding. There are normally no bridesmaids. The groom is escorted down the aisle by his mother, particularly in Catalonia. Rice is thrown after the ceremony, together with rose petals- and don’t be surprised to hear firecra...

The ‘Naked’ Cake Trend

Whilst we look through all the beautiful pictures of weddings and events that grace our Instagram feed, we have noticed a sudden change in tradition. Wedding Cakes have gone commando!  Now if you aren’t sure what I mean by ‘Naked Cake’ it means a cake without any fondant covering.  The classic modern style of a cake covered in simple white fondant, then decorated with themed colours and other beautiful little edible decorations is becoming less and less popular! Couples are turning to a much more rustic and natural cake decoration idea.  Couples can choose how ‘naked’ they want their cake to be as the cake is covered with buttercream instead of fondant icing, showing the sponge cake underneath. The amount of sponge cake to buttercream ratio is something you can decide on. If the sponge cake is only slightly visible, then this is called a semi-naked cake. These are quite popular. You then have the naked cake which can either be covered in a small amount of buttercream cre...

Dare we say the ‘C’ word in July

So it’s July. We are officially past the half way point of 2017 and we have noticed that many of the lovely people we meet with have already started planning for… you guessed it.. Christmas!  Those of you who are in denial that 2017 is half-way through may stop reading right now, but preparing for Christmas is a very big deal for many businesses as it always ends up being their busiest time, all because of the Christmas Party rush!  This does leave us asking… Why do we have Christmas Parties?  Well they cheer us up in the dark, cold months of winter (the hot months if you’re Australian) and they provide a fantastic opportunity for management to celebrate and treat their employees after a successful year. By showing appreciation to employees it will in turn increase morale and encourage them to remain a part of the company long term.  Why do most companies book their Christmas parties so early? Well the main reason is simple. Availability. If you imagine taking venue...
