📘 Maurice and Maralyn: A Whale, a Shipwreck, a Love Story by Sophie Elmhirst - A true story so jaw-dropping you won't believe it isn't fiction. What begins as an eccentric English love story turns into one of the most dramatic adventures ever recorded.

📘 Murdle: Even More Killer Puzzles: 100 Cunningly Clever Murder Mystery Logic Puzzles - Join Deductive Logico in this interactive tale, examine the clues, interview the witnesses, and complete the deduction grids to catch the villainous culprits.

Anyone got Stormzy's number? 📱

We'd like to offer him a job.

Why?

He has -

👉 Created something iconic.
👉 Grabbed attention.
👉 Stirred emotions.
👉 Got the TWC spirit.

His House Party has all the ingredients for an exceptional experience and we are all for it.

Here's why...

🏠 Nostalgia - step through the door and you're transported to the simple, carefree days of your youth. From squashy old sofas to wardrobes full of retro fashion, every single detail hits the mark and evokes memories - and as we know, all the best memories were made at house parties.

🏠 The Space - from the garage (complete with car), the kitchen with decks on the washing machine, the dining room with chairs to the side to make way for a dancefloor, all of the seven floors are carefully designed to feel authentic, and provide interactive surprises.

🏠 Connection - retro video games and karaoke in the bedrooms, beer pong in the basement, and giant Jenga in the garden. The things we loved to do together revisited. Bonus - to ensure everyone is fully immersed in the fun, actors in character set secret challenges like 'finding Mum's diary' - genius.

🏠 The Food - even the food and drinks take on the theme, BBQ chicken wings, and takeaway pizza 'delivered' in a box by a delivery guy. To maintain the house party illusion, everything can be ordered by QR code, no queuing at the bar - now we're interested.

🏠 The Vibe - every room has a different feeling, putting the world to rights in the garden, chilling out in the bedroom, or shoulder to shoulder on the dining room dance floor - there's something for everyone. In true house party style, there are even AUX cables to play your own tunes.

In summary - everyone wants to go to a house party, but nobody wants to throw one, so Stormzy has created one where he promises 'no two nights will be the same'.

The best bit?
You don't have to clean up 🧹

Take a look at your events, how can you amplify them to create an exceptional experience? ✨

The first hour sets the tone of your event experience ⏱️

True right?

You have one chance to make a first impression and the same rules apply to your event 👇

🥵 Guests arrive hot and bothered
☕ They've only had one coffee
💻 The OOO is on

But what takes a maximum of 15 mins to execute and will set your event up for success?

How can you centre your audience, leaving LBE (life before event) behind, and be truly present in your investment?

Surprise them! 🎉

Introduce an activity that will:

⏰ Wake up the group
🧘‍♂️ Anchor your guests in the moment
🔋 Elevate energy levels
🧑‍🤝‍🧑 Create a memorable shared experience

From uplifting music to transformative breath, body percussion, or a good old-fashioned icebreaker.

An investment in the 'golden hour' will pay dividends.

Trust us 🙏

Can you spot the problems here? 👇

➡ Conference on the future of AI at a countryside manor house
➡ Climate change conference at a central London 5* hotel
➡ Leadership 'away day' in the hotel next door to the office

Do the venues set the scene the minute you walk through the door?
Do you feel inspired and fizzing with ideas on the topic of the event?

Probably not ❌

Your venue choice shouldn't just be about ticking all the logistical boxes (although obviously they're important - see our last post ⏪ to make sure you have all bases covered).

✅ Does the space you're using evoke the right emotions?
✅ Does it place the guests in the heart of the topic?
✅ Will they be inspired before the meeting even begins?

Never underestimate the power of your venue choice 💥

➡ Topic: AI - ultra-modern space with top-notch tech facilities.
➡ Topic: Climate change - a venue with the highest sustainability credentials, aim for carbon neutral.
➡ Topic: Leadership away day - a location away from the office, a calm, distraction-free space.

Need to rethink your venue? 🤔

Drop us a line and delve into our little black book - it's full of venues for every occasion 📞

16/07/2024

This venue is going to blow you away! 💥

The views! The restaurant! Rooftop bar! Infinity pool!

The reality - no room to store luggage, inflexible check-in times, fixed meeting room set up, limited vegan menu, no option to buy out the whole space 😟

Is that showstopping venue really going to work for your event? Have you nailed down what's really important and asked all the right questions? 🤔

It's easy to get swept up in the glamour of a venue (just think of the pictures for Insta! 📸), but take off the rose-tinted glasses and look at how the space works for your event, does it give you everything you need?

If you haven't asked the right questions it's a fast track to event stress and frustrated guests, trying to mold a venue to your requirements isn't always possible.

Do your homework, make sure your agenda and venue are a match made in event heaven.

Summer's here! (Or is it?) 😎 ☔ 🌩️

The cogs stop whirring, the shoulders drop...

Pause the notifications, put on the out-of-office and silence the calls - immerse yourself in the world around you, distraction-free.

Use the slower pace of the summer months to fill your creative cup🥤

When the noise stops, notice how with your eyes open wide, you see things differently? 👀

Why is this important?

You need this time to let the creative juices flow and approach September with fresh energy and a new perspective.

We've started you off with some ideas, what can you do to flex your creative muscles?

Share your ideas in the comments so we can all have an inspiring summer 👇

We are all different and that is our superpower but how do we cater to the crowd whilst celebrating differences? 🤔

Whether you're the first to speak up in a meeting, or prefer to have your say in a smaller group, events should be inviting for all.

And as event professionals, it's up to us to provide an inclusive, engaging environment. Here are some quick wins you can include in your event design right now -

📱 Pre-event - create opportunities to connect with an event app that allows guests to network and build relationships before they arrive.

🎨 Activities - make them inclusive and create a level-playing field where everyone is starting at the same place. Art is great for this, it's fun and there is no 'right or wrong' way to do it. Graffiti for lawyers? You bet! It was amazing!

🧑‍🤝‍🧑 Socialising - don't just place everyone in a large room and expect them to get on with it. Create zones around your venue that allow people to stop and chat in a gentle, non-pre-scripted way.

🎤 Facilitation - make room in your budget for a great facilitator. An expert will keep the meeting flowing and make sure that everyone gets their voices heard. Priceless.

🪩 Party-time! - not everyone will be ready to shake their thang at the end of the day, others will prefer to decompress over a drink and a chat. The chill-out room is where the party is at.

How inclusive are your events?

“Organising a standout celebration event for your colleagues has to be the most challenging task. With so many marks to hit and views to include, but Wentworth guided us all the way.

They're there from conception and planning right through to set up and the delivery. On the day, they are hands on, holding your hand and reassuring you, when you have so many balls to juggle and colleagues who you want to give a night to remember.’

Head of Learning and Development, Leonardo Hotels UK

Flashback to the time when we transported Award Winners to the Gatsby Manor

Companies that prioritise employee engagement benefit from:

✔️ up to 21% rise in profits
✔️ 19% increase in employee retention
✔️ employees that collaborate 57% more effectively with peers

Awards ceremonies are a wonderful way to celebrate success, shine a light on great people, and connect colleagues.

With a single opportunity, the stakes are high which is why Leonardo Hotels contacted The Wentworth Collective Ltd to co-create their Annual Awards Evening.

The brief was to

✔️Design and deliver a memorable “wow” experience
✔️Showcase the hotel
✔️Shine a light on collaboration

Employees gain a sense of pride and joy, inspiring others to want a seat at the table next year.

Have a LOOK, behind the curtain, to see how we created a night to remember at the ‘Gatsby Mansion’

Quick Quiz ❓

Think of a pie chart...

When planning an event -

What task should take the biggest slice of your energy pie?

❓ Budget
❓ Working Docs
❓ Delegate Management?

✅ It's briefing...

A good brief is the key to event success.

Without it's like travelling without a GPS 🗺️

❓ Who should you brief - just your team?

❌ WRONG.

You should be briefing (as well as your team) - the venue staff, your suppliers, your client, the caterers, the guy at the door - yep, be that person.

❓ What should your brief include - just the logistics?

❌ WRONG.

Your brief should also include - the theme, key attendees and event staff, the objective (your north star) and all those things in your head (don't assume people will know!)

Planning an event? Go back and double-down on your brief and then make sure EVERYONE is on the same page.

Real World vs Digital World - where's the happy spot? 🤔

Tech can make our lives easier (hello Alexa reminders!), but it can also mean we're missing out.

So where's the happy spot? How do you find balance?

Luckily we know just the person to ask. Tanya Goodin ꜰʀꜱᴀ is one of our 'collective' and recently released her new book 'The Teenage Guide To Digital Wellbeing'.

✨ BONUS! ✨

The lessons in the book are for adults too! 📘

Tanya delivers some thought-provoking science, and ideas for hands-on activities to encourage healthy habits around screen use.

Which got us thinking about how we approach our agenda design...

Our number 1 consideration?

❓What’s the balance of tech and connection?

What practical activities can we add that spark creativity, use our hands and brains in a different way, get us out in nature?

Turning away from the screens is just as important in events as it is in real life, this is where -

➡️ Relationships are built
➡️ Connections are made
➡️ The brain is fully engaged and focused

However, with event tech ever advancing, AI, AR, and VR have been a game changers in creating immersive experiences.

This is not about going back to basics, but simply putting a spin on things and using digital wisely.

Don't turn your back on tech, but be mindful of its use.

It's about living our best lives, beyond the screen 💻

Are you tech-heavy or tech-light?

Loneliness Awareness Week 💙

Does your event create enough moments for connection?

We know how it goes - multiple departments coming at you with content for the event, the agenda feels packed and you're struggling to fit everything in. Can you just lose that coffee break or make lunch a bit shorter?

Don't 🤚

What you gain in time is not worth what you lose in experience.

The success of your event depends on the feeling that everyone leaves with.

Happy, unified guests means -

😊 Better information retention
😊 Increased brand loyalty
😊 Deeper working relationships

This year's theme for Loneliness Awareness Week is 'Random Acts of Connection' - as event organisers we see it as more 'planned acts of connection', and it always features in our event design.

Use our tips to make sure your attendees feel connected 🧑‍🤝‍🧑

What can you do today to make someone feel more connected?

06/06/2024

Glitzy? Glam? Headline worthy? A-list guest list? ⭐

Yep, yep, yep, and yep - but that's not the answer...

One peek at the logo, one mention of the name, and you can feel the tingle of anticipation ✨

You know what you're getting....and you know it will be good!

The Oscars, Brits, BAFTAs, and Met Gala have a caste-iron identity, they take a theme and run with it.

They know who they are and what they're about and year-on-year we can't get enough.

Take your cue from these events, find your theme, create a kick-ass identity, and weave it through every element of your experience, build excitement, and make sure they leave wanting more.

Event identity is your fast track to event success - make it your superpower 🦹

When it comes to Event Design are you a Carpenter or a Gardener?

In her book, "The Gardener and the Carpenter," Psychologist Alison Gopnick describes two types of parenting.

The “Carpenter” parent thinks their child can be molded.

“The idea is that if you just do the right things, get the right skills, read the right books, you’re going to be able to shape your child into a particular kind of adult.”

The “Gardener,” on the other hand, is less concerned about controlling who the child will become, and instead provides a protected space to explore. The style is all about “creating a rich, nurturant but also variable, diverse, dynamic ecosystem.”

It got us thinking about events and specifically conversations around

➡ Event curation
➡ Delegate experience
➡ Designing the event to meet the vision

As Event Designers: Are we Carpenters or Gardeners?

❓How can we create the conditions to influence the desired outcomes?

A carpenter is in complete control of their craft.

➡ Starting with a blueprint
➡ Onto the precise measurements
➡ Sourcing specific material

The end results matching the initial image. You know exactly what you are getting.

The Gardener however takes a different approach creating the conditions and preparing the environment for system to grow

➡ soil is prepared
➡ seed planted
➡ fertilizer added
➡ plenty of water

Constant attention to the seed and its development with unwavering faith, with the above in place, the plant will thrive.

Back to events...

In meeting our objectives, is it better to...

❓be prescriptive with the agenda or
❓create conditions for our delegates to find their own way

Hmmm..

What do you think?

In 2021/2022, it was reported that 914,000 workers were suffering from work-related stress, depression or anxiety.

Prioritising employees’ health speaks volumes about a company. It indicates that, as a business, you want to protect your most important asset – your people🧑‍🤝‍🧑

Employee events are the perfect opportunity to demonstrate your company’s commitment to improving the quality of its employees’ lives, both in and out of work.

So, in amongst the packed agenda and activities, how can you weave in that wellness goodness?

As well as prioritising wellness in the experience agenda, here are our top 7 tips -

🎤 Invite an inspiring speaker - invite individuals who have overcome their own challenges and share their wellness story.

💙 Prioritise human connection - we are wired to connect. Seek opportunities in the agenda to encourage team members to spark conversation, share ideas, laugh, and share experiences.

🎨 Encourage creativity - activate creativity whether through music, craft, art. It will free the soul and fire up the neurotransmitters by learning a new skill.

💆‍♂️ Look at alternatives - experience the power of alternative therapies, perfect to invigorate at the start of the day or rejuvenate when the afternoon slump hits.

🤝 Give back - doing something for someone else releases all the feel-good vibes, give your event some heart by giving back to the local community.

🌿Ground in nature - the benefits of immersing yourself in nature are well documented, plan some outdoor activities, walking breaks, or just tranquil spaces for guests to chill.

🧘‍♂️ Get moving - release the endorphins early on in your agenda to raise the vibe, include gentle, inclusive opportunities to move throughout your event.

A wellness-infused event is not just about ticking boxes but about truly nourishing the mind, body, and spirit of your guests.

Happy attendees are engaged attendees 🎉

What wellness-wonders will you use?

Five reasons why the Met Gala is an exceptional experience...

🌹 Visual Theme - a clear direction. This year, "Sleeping Beauties: Reawakening Fashion," immortalised by the dress code, The Garden in Time”, inspired by a short story of the same name by JG Ballard. Brings the theatre to the party

⏲️ Building anticipation - who wore what, who's invited, what will the outtakes be...we LOVE it!

👯 Curated guest list - who is hosting, who is in, who is snubbed? It's a 'who's who' of glitterati.

👁️ The attention to detail - handbags, costume changes, we love seeing how guests interpret the theme.

😂 The Memes - what is more fun than the party on the night? Watching the memes unfold the following day.

The Met Gala always breaks boundaries and we are already counting the days until next year.

What are your takeaways?

If you are not weaving a little nostalgia into your next event you could be missing a trick 🪄

We can't get enough of reminiscing ❤️

Hollywood got the memo with the Barbie revival and now The Fall Guy.

Nostalgia evokes strong feelings and this is event GOLD 🪙

Drop in memories of days gone by = a collective effervescence of belonging, connection, and shared memories.

Still not convinced?

How do you feel when 'that track' drops on the dance floor? 🪩

Stay tuned for tomorrow's post when we'll give you 5 easy ways to sprinkle some nostalgia magic into your next event ✨

What's the secret sauce to creating lasting impact and event legacy?

It's one of the biggest ROI's you can gain from any event...

Community 👫

Building community is essential when designing transformational experiences for the following reasons:

🤝 staff retention
🤝 deeper client relationships
🤝 brand loyalty
🤝 talent attraction

Here are our 5 top strategies to help you:

👉 Co-create the agenda with attendees - we love to feel part of a bigger purpose. Achieve early investment by asking guests for opinions and input on what they want to see. Guests feel seen and heard ❤️

👉 Build excitement and connections early - use an event app to get people connected before they've even arrived. Create profiles, group people to connect, and drip feed event details to build anticipation for the big day.

👉 Create space - don't pack your agenda so tightly that there's no room to breathe, leave space for connections. But don't leave them to chance, have you created areas within the venue that mean people will be able to chat and sit comfortably together?

👉 Make it personal - a strong community is built through emotional connections above professional ones. Give people the opportunity to share a little more about themselves, and make them feel comfortable enough to do so.

👉 Keep the conversations going - don't delete the app! Ask for feedback, encourage people to share their highlights, talk about the next event. Help the connections people have made live on.

What can you do to encourage an event community? 👱‍♂️ 👱‍♀️

She's the guest that should be at the top of everyone's list...

Mother Nature brings so much to the party 🎉🌳

Here's why you should swap four walls for a bit of sunshine -

🌿 Elevated Mood: Being outdoors can boost mood and reduce stress levels. Guests will feel more relaxed, setting the perfect tone.

🌿 Increased Engagement: Nature provides a stimulating backdrop that encourages guests to interact and explore.

🌿 Wellness Boost: Spending time outdoors will increase the well-being of your guests, leaving them feeling refreshed and revitalised.

🌿 Enhanced Creativity: Sensations of the outdoors stimulate creativity, inspire innovative thinking and spark new ideas.

🌿 Memorable Experience: Outdoor events offer a unique and memorable experience that stands out from traditional indoor gatherings. Whether it's a picturesque sunset or a moonlit dinner under the stars, guests will cherish the special moments created in nature for years to come.

🌿 Switch up the energy: Change of location = change of mood

Check the images for some of the ways we've invited nature into our planning (bonus - save the post when you're struggling for inspo 💡).

How will you incorporate the great outdoors into your event?

What made the coronation an exceptional experience?

What made the Coronation of King Charles III and Queen Camilla an Exceptional Experience? Some of the highlights for us were: 👑 The history - With customs dating back more than 1,000 years, this was an extravaganza of pomp and ceremony, celebration and tradition. 👦 Louis still being a legend – Openly yawning during festivities and developing a new style of Royal waving. Louis is still very much our favourite. 🗡 Unexpected star – Penny Mordaunt stole the show and wowed the Internet with her strength and composure. 🥁 The military – The pinnacle of army pride and precision, an impressive display of the Armed Forces. 🔎 Hidden messages – Queen Camilla’s outfit was a piece of Royal history with a nod to her private life including the names of her children, grandchildren and even the King and Queen’s beloved dogs. ❤️ The human touch – From Charles displaying emotional vulnerability, Kate hugging children on the walkabout and Sophie going for it as the concert, we saw that perhaps they aren’t so different from us after all. 👗 The fashion – The mini-me matching crown trend was exceptional with Kate and Charlotte both dressed in one of The Princess of Wales favourite labels, Alexander McQueen. 🎤 Production values – Every element of the concert was truly mind-blowing. From the setting, the lights, the drones through to the outfits, no detail was overlooked to create a show stopping event. 😮 The drama – Will he won’t he attend? All eyes were on Harry and his every facial expression. 🤝 The legacy - The Big Help Out showcased the best of British and created a meaningful and lasting element to the celebrations. 🫖 The tea parties – Rishi serving tea to Jill Biden was the start of national tea parties bringing communities together.
