Are Outdoor Events Difficult to Prepare?

March 22, 2021 by Annie

Every event you arrange presents another challenge. If event planning is your profession, you embrace this because it makes you more creative and resourceful. Each event is unique because the event client’s goals and expectations vary. As many people say, experience is the best teacher. Therefore, you can draw from the lessons you learned from previous events to ensure that you can plan better and bigger events.

With your experience, you recognize differences exist between indoor and outdoor events because of the external factors affecting the event. But sometimes you need expert help. Many companies specialise in renting out fairground stalls and various fun equipment to take care of the entertainment side of an event. Likewise, some companies offer event planning aside from providing fairground stalls and equipment, like https://www.wearetricycle.co.uk.

How do you prepare an outdoor event?

If you need to plan an outdoor event, here are the things that need doing. We already mentioned it had a slight difference to indoor event planning. Here are the tips for planning an event for an outdoor venue.

Create a task list

Many things go into planning an event, and the number of details to look into is overwhelming. To keep on top of things and remain organised, you need a task list. It should include all the things you need to do. Even if you have a team, a task list will guide everyone on their tasks. It will help you identify the tasks already finished, the ones that are ongoing, pending and experiencing some difficulties.

Choose the venue

Your choice of a venue depends on the number of participants, the facilities available at the venue, the size of the ground, and the equipment you will hire.

Catering

The event participants need sustenance, so work with an excellent catering company to provide the food and drinks that will fit everyone’s taste.

Rental equipment

You have a lot to consider when you handle this step. You must choose the tables and chairs, the linen, and the enclosure for the event space. Consider the lighting, security, fans or heaters, tableware, sound system, entertainers, and other equipment, like fairground stalls, rides, and more. If you have entertainers, party games, inflatables, and rides, make sure you confirm their booking weeks in advance.

Music

Music is important in any type of event. It can be live music with a DJ or just background music. The music choice sets the mood. Understand you should book live bands well in advance and have regular communication with them. Consider the availability of space if there will be time for dancing. Also, check local regulations regarding loud music.

Other elements to consider

Since your event is outdoors, consider the need for lighting. Or your event may need special light effects. Make sure you hire a professional lighting company. They can help you fit the lighting design to fit your event’s theme. Likewise, consider the venue’s décor, which should likewise fit the event’s theme. It will vary depending on whether it’s a debut party, wedding reception, corporate event, or a child’s birthday party. And do not forget video and photography services, to record everything for posterity.

As an event planner, you understand you have to make sure the venue and the participants are safe. Your task list will help you monitor the status of everything you have to do.

About Me

Hi! I'm Annie and I have 3 kids (all in their teens - yikes!). My mommy blog isn't all about lunches and DIY - it's also about humour. Like how my kids make fun of my texts as if I don't know how to use emojis (I DO!). Now that I have a bit more time - since my kids don't want to hang out with me (teenagers), I have taken up blogging.
