8 Tips To Transform Your Event Venue
Presented By Boston Magician Dave Chandler

When it comes to transforming an event venue you can do a lot with almost nothing. It’s possible to change the whole mood of a place by following some of the easy tips found here. You should be able to take a dark room and fill it with romance, or make a silly room serious. All you have to do is think about the mood that you want. Usually every venue needs some decoration to make it fit the event’s desired ambiance.

First, you need to add a splash of color and boldness. You can add some boldness by getting some nice things like cloths and other decorations to design your room. If you get a lot of long sheets of interesting fabric you will be able to add both color and boldness to the venue.

You can let them hang from the ceiling or have them gently flow through the room. Your creativity has no limits when it comes to adding colors and boldness. The only thing that you want to avoid is colors that will be too bright for the occasion.

If you are going for romance, stick with red hues; if you are going for a party atmosphere, stick with some of the brighter and bold colors. The decorations are at your discretion, but first, you need to make sure that you don't have any limits because of venue rules. Simply ask before signing a contract with them.

You should also think about small, little things that will be great accents. You can go to an inexpensive craft store, or even the Dollar Store and find a million things to use as accents.

You may want to purchase a bag filled with seashells, or you may want to use simple things like petals and pearls. When it comes to romance, you can't get any more romantic than with rose petals and pearl beads.

If you are on a budget, you can find plenty of things like fake crystals, pieces of glass, stones, and other things to place on the tables as accents. If using smaller objects, you can change the mood and complete look by adding ‘height’.

You may want to use tall things to add some height to the room. Things like pillars or candle holders will get the dimension going. If you have a small room, the height will give you some added depth to the place. You should also know that if you use tall center pieces, this will work too. The only thing is that you want to make sure that the items will not easily be knocked over. This can save a lot of your guests from being hurt or embarrassed.

Also, if you use a matching décor, you can add a good bit of color. However, you don't want too much color so if you match the tablecloths with the floor runner or to some of the other decorations, it will all seem to come together. If that doesn't do the trick, then flowers will.

When you use flowers you are able to change the room entirely. This tends to make everything seem brighter and glowing. If you want radiance, you should order some flowers to be set down in various places here and there. You don't have to go overboard on the flowers, but if you watch your budget, you should be able to change the room with even a few well-placed bouquets.

However, maybe it is not the décor of the room, but the size of the room that bothers you. If you change the tables in the venue, you will be able to make the room feel smaller or bigger. For rooms or venues that are smaller, you should use round tables. The round tables will give the illusion that there is more room, and your guests will be able to feel it. If you would like to make a larger room appear to be smaller you can always add long tables into the mix.

The last tip is the lighting. The lighting is everything in a mood. If you want people to be aware of silent auctions and place bids or donations, you will want the lighting to be fairly bright. This will get the attention of the guests, but it won't give them a headache. You should of course dim the lights if you want to convey a night of romance and passion.

5 Pitfalls To Avoid When Planning Your Next Event
 By Boston Magician Dave Chandler

When it comes to planning an event, it can be rough. You not only have to worry about all the details that are major, but you have to deal with all the little things too. You may find that there are some reoccurring problems that you have when you plan events. Each problem that you run into should teach you some kind of lesson for the next event.

The first thing that you should avoid when it comes to planning your next event is getting overwhelmed with details. If the event is getting bigger and bigger and you seem to have lost control over things, you need to get backup. It's hard to plan an event, especially if it is a very important event. You have to plan where you are going to have the event, the theme, the decorations, food, caterers, entertainment, supplies, and the budget. You need to make sure that you stay within a budget, but get everything done. This is when you need an assistant.

If you don't have an assistant you could have an emotional breakdown and it could ruin the event. Depending on your personality, the breakdown can be crucial. This is why you need an assistant. Don't get overwhelmed with things. When it comes to using an assistant you can leave them the minor things like fetching, fixing, decorating, and all the small details that you should never worry about.

The second pitfall that you need to avoid is being disappointed with the bar and food. If you are going to have a catered dinner or event, you need to make sure that you have a written contact upon hiring. The contract needs to state the cost, the food, and basically what you expect from the amount of money that you are paying. Even put the time when they need to show up in the contract or you may end up with irresponsible caters. You need to make sure that the food looks and taste good.

You don't want to have people looking at you with disappointment.

The third pitfall to avoid has to deal with other contracts. Get a contract written for everything. It can be on a tablecloth, if you must. Just make sure that you have it in writing what you are paying them, why you are paying them, what you expect from them and the day and times that they need to show up with the goods. If you don't, you will end up having someone come to you saying that they overbooked or they have increased the costs.

The fourth pitfall to avoid is running out of funds. Make sure that you set a budget for your event. The way to successfully set a budget is to set minimum and maximum amounts you will spend.

For example, you can pay at least $5,000 for the party, but you can go to $7,000. Then you aim for the average, so you would like to have a $6,000 party. If you set your budget like that you know exactly if you need to cut the corners or if you can expand somewhere on the party. You will also be more successful if you set yourself some limits. You'll be more likely to be under budget.

The fifth and final pitfall to avoid is relaxing too far in advance. A lot of people will plan an event so far ahead that they think that they can take it easy the day before or even the day of the party or event. You need to realize that when you find extra time to relax, make some phone calls. Make sure that everyone is on the same page so that when the day comes you don't run around like a chicken with its head cut off. You can enjoy the day of the event with a relaxed pace because you were on top of things the day before.

Boston Magicians Event Planning - Hot Tips To Make Any Event A Smashing Success



Event Planning and
Hot Tips To Make Any Event A Smashing Success



4 Ways To Ensure That Your Event Will Go As Planned

When you are trying to plan a great event, you want to get everything perfect so that it all goes as planned. This may not always be easy and in fact, you will have to work hard at it to make sure that it does go the way that you are hoping.  You should not get all worked up about your event.  As long as you have the right materials and the work ethic to do it, you will have a great and successful time.

There are four ways to ensure that your event will go just as you have planned. 

You will first want to make a budget. Once you know how much you can afford to spend on this special occasion, you will then be able to plan out all that you have to spend on your purchases. 
This will give you some kind of start so that you can follow through on it. 

It is very important to stick to your budget so that you are not forced to go over and have to find ways to pay the extra cost.

Once you have the budget in place you will want to make a list. This is the second way to ensure that everything goes as planned.  Once you have the list of all the materials and things that you need to plan out, you will then be on your way to making the most of your special occasion.

You will want to figure out the different things that you will need and then go from there. This will be the best way to make sure that you are getting good deals on all the things that you are in need of. Buying things at the last minute from a ‘convenience’ store can destroy your budget.

Make sure that you are checking things off of your list as they are done. 

You will want to do this so that you are not forgetting to take care of something and this will help you leave nothing undone. You will find that planning out the event will go a lot easier and quicker when you have a great plan to move on with. This will be a very good way to stay organized and on track.

The third way to ensure that your event goes as planned is to make sure that you have a lot of help. You do not want to take on all the challenges of running an event yourself.

You want to have as much help as you can so that you are able to make the most of your special day. You want to have friends help you out as much as possible, as well as even hiring some extra hands to get everything done for you.  

They will also be able to keep an eye on things at the event. They can watch over and make sure that all is running smoothly, and if there is a problem, they can try and fix it before you even find out about it. This will be a great help and also take some of the stress off of you when the time comes.

The fourth way to make sure that you are succeeding with your planned event is to have a lot of patience. You do not want to get yourself worked up too much. You want to make sure that you are calm and collected so that you can handle any problems that may come up at the event. You will feel better and be able to relax when you are in control of the situation. This is something that a lot of people do not do and they will find that they have no fun at their own party.
 
You did all this planning and hard work and you should be able to enjoy it as much as you can.  Calm down and have patience. Things are going to go wrong and there is nothing that you can do about it. All you can do is prepare well, then work through it and hope for the best.
