First Event = Successfull!!

This week has been nothing but crazy! Wedding season has offically started, and when I say started I mean we are doing 3 or 4 weddings a day for Saturdays and Sundays. I was also assigned a big job that I was the main contact and coordinator. I worked with the Royal Palms and with a company that is staying there for a Corporate Meeting that lasts 3 full days. I had to work with the Event Coordinator for the Harris Corporation, as well as the Royal Palms. We planned the entire decor of the 3 nights for the employees attending. I was responsible for ordering linens, flowers, props, candles and more. I did have my managers watching and helping, but I was the one that attended all meetings and made all the plans. I was also there to set up for every night, making sure everything listed was there and used properly. Luckily, it was a huge success and I got such positive feedback from the Event Coordinator, the Royal Palms, and most of all my managers. There were only 4 tables for the entire event everyday, but I did manage to get all the correct products and add my input for the designs was recognized and used. My first real event I did by myself!!!! Hopefully I will be able to do the same for a group of 100, or even 500! Only time and practice will tell! Have a great Spring Break and be safe! I love the fact that for my major I want to plan parties which is perfect for me since I love to go to them! Chow!!
