I really appreciated the reminders within the reading Event Budgets: The Basics–And Some Lessons You Don’t Want To Learn The Hard Way! The step-by-step process was a direct way to learn about many of the parts of budgeting that one can't forget. I also thought that it was great that the writer included several ways people go over their budget, including forgetting to include overtime and not properly checking their Excel budget sheet. As I move forward with the Halloween party planning, I look forward to budgeting for the event with as much detail as I can. I will continue to work on identifying expenses for the party's budget and plan!
I really liked the points in Top 10 Tips for Successful Event Management. I think the point about having a back up plan resonated the most with me. For the Halloween party, I am now more sure that a back up venue would be a good idea just so we are 100% covered for that night. I agree that photographing everything is important to highlight that the event was a success and fun as well as promote our event online. Overall, I thought it was a good read!
Here's to a great week!
