Implement a Dress Code Recommendation
An event is only as classy as its attendees, and most people will consider the guest list and attendees a reflection of how classy the event is. So, class it up with a dress code, or at very least a dress recommendation.
You’ll be helping guests too! How often are we confused about the attire before going to an event? Take the confusion away by putting the dress code front and center on the invitation. You can be as formal as you like or as classy as you want.
A classy event venue requires classy attire.
Know Your Audience
Who’s coming to the event? Knowing your audience is key to providing a high-end experience. Cater to your audience’s idea of classy.
If you are throwing a corporate event, then it’s important to know what you want from them; important data, a donation, or simply their participation. Ensure that your event is set up to get this information in the least most invasive fashion possible. If you want to be classy, don’t collect emails at the door, instead ask for business cards for a drawing of some kind.
Quality of Quantity
Understanding where to spend and where to save is so important, especially if you are on a budget. We recommend the cliché, quality over quantity. Here are our recommendations regarding what to invest in and what to avoid investing in.
WHAT TO INVEST IN
Food: When it comes to food, go for lots of classy hors d’oeuvres instead of lots of moderately good food.
Décor: Chair covers can make any event a little classier, though expensive, they can make a huge difference if you have more room in your budget.
Place Cards: A personalized experience always feels classy. It’s that little bit of effort that goes a long way, so invest in place cards with names and assigned seating.
WHAT TO AVOID
Expensive Speakers: If you are going to hire an expensive speaker, consider what the listeners are going to get and what the speaker is going to get. Now what’s left for you?
A Third-Party Catering Staff: Find a classy event venue that has an onsite catering staff. Package deals will not only save you money, but the staff’s knowledge and experience will ensure that the event goes off without a hitch.
Find the Perfect Venue
