We’re all about a greener way to celebrate the holidays ✨🎄

This holiday season, making it joyful and little more sustainable doesn’t mean sacrificing style. It’s about thoughtful choices that make the season brighter—for you and the planet. Whether you’re hosting a cozy gathering or a festive bash, creating an eco-friendly event can entail decor with a conscience 🌿🌎✨

Lights that Shine Bright, there’s options! Opt for LED lights or solar-powered holiday lights to create that warm, festive glow without extra energy. Go the extra mile with a “light-free” tree (yes, it’s possible and so stunning)! 💡

We’re here to create and support a celebration that’s both modern and mindful. Connect for sustainable event tips and inspo! 📲🌱🎄✨

Working with local brands in a sustainable manner not only benefits the environment but also supports the community and local economy. This includes our event vendors and partners, as well as local suppliers in all areas of event participation. Recently, we had the pleasure of collaborating with a few delicious and generous brands at client events from Central to East Coast Canada! 🇨🇦

It's initiatives like these that make a significant impact, promoting sustainability and fostering community growth.

Working outside in the open air in high temperatures, especially in the special events industry, requires careful planning and preparation to ensure both the success of the event and the well-being of everyone involved. 3 favourite tips from our community to consider for your event space that can really make the event day more enjoyable:

Hydration is Key: Ensure there are ample supplies of water readily available for everyone involved, including staff, volunteers, and attendees. Consider setting up hydration stations with cool water and electrolyte drinks. 💧

Shade Stations: Create shaded areas where people can take breaks from the sun. This can include tents, umbrellas, or shaded seating areas. Make sure these areas are easily accessible and strategically located throughout the event space. ⛱️

Cooling Stations: Consider setting up misting stations or providing handheld fans to help keep people cool. These can be particularly effective in high-traffic areas or near stages. ☀️

Timing, monitoring weather conditions, proper training, working equipment and communication are also key to review pre-event to make the day a safer and more enjoyable experience for everyone attending or working in hotter temperatures. Stay cool out there! 😎

As we begin wrapping one our favourite client events celebrating International Women’s Day, as a women led business, we are reflecting on why celebrating International Women’s Day each year is meaningful to us. The social, economic, cultural, and political achievements of women are celebrated at various events around the world for International Women’s Day. These events often serve as platforms for raising awareness about gender equality, women’s rights, and issues affecting women globally. They help educate communities and promote understanding of the challenges women face. 💞

We’re absolutely thrilled to continue supporting Women’s Day in our community.

Some of our most impactful fundraisers have utilized technology. Engaging the audience for a successful bidding process. A few key points and strategies to consider when maximizing the bidding process with technology:

• Know Your Audience: Understand the demographics, interests, and preferences of your audience. Tailor your fundraising efforts to resonate with them.

• Create Compelling Content: Develop visually appealing materials such as print materials, presentations, and videos that highlight the cause you’re supporting and the impact of donations and incorporate into various technology channels.

• Online Bidding Platforms: Utilize online platforms or mobile apps to facilitate bidding, allowing attendees to participate remotely or during the event. Make sure the platform is user friendly and known to attendees.

• Recognition And Incentives: Offer recognition to donors, such as naming opportunities or acknowledgment in event materials. Provide incentives like exclusive experiences for top donors and showcase them via technology leading up to the big date!

By implementing these and more strategies, you can create an engaging audience experience, maximizing participation and fundraising outcomes for any kind of fundraising!

We’re believers that music is everlasting and so is its importance in a well curated program. Event programming and its flow lies in the ability to enhance the overall experience and engagement of attendees. A well-planned program ensures that the event runs smoothly, keeping participants engaged and interested throughout the entire event no matter what the event type. 📑🎶

Congrats to all event partners for this event! We’re looking forward to working with partners again for this upcoming Toronto event creating another successful program and show. 👏

It’s a new year for speaking engagements now that in person conferences are resuming. What are a few key essential things to consider when you’re at this planning stage? We like to suggest first and foremost curating your event speakers with your audience in mind! Will your speakers be the best fit for your event and your audience? 🎤🔖📒

This includes setting expectations. Scheduling transition time and organization of the event day logistics while providing tech support prior to the big day. Checking in to support is important and having tools ready like a speaker handbook a few weeks out will further support!
