Tips for Hosting a Fabulous Party

by

Club Venetian Tips for Hosting a Fabulous Party

Hosting a party can be a rewarding experience, especially when you make it fun for everyone in attendance. Follow these easy tips to ensure your next party is one to remember!

Plan

A great party starts by planning what is going to happen and how you are going to make that possible. The first step is choosing the venue then planning the type, setup and configuration of food, drinks, activities and decorations. It is best to make a timeline and checklist for the details so that you do not get overwhelmed and make sure everything is taken care of before or on the day of the event.

Unless you are conducting an open-invite, send formal invitations four to six weeks before your event to provide time for guests to make adjustments in their schedule. Providing fair notice will ensure the greatest turnout.

Listen to Others

It can be easy to take control during the planning process, but it is helpful to solicit advice from others who are experienced in party planning, and your co-hosts if you are not planning the party alone. A second set of ideas can be useful when thinking of ways to keep guests entertained and how to arrange the flow of activities throughout the party.

Check the Thermostat

Although your party is geared towards your guests having the most fun possible, their comfort should also be a top priority. Wherever you are hosting a party, make sure its cooled or heated to a comfortable temperature. Our bodies generate a lot of heat so be sure to account for this when setting the thermostat if you are having a large party with a room full of people.

If you are interested in either catering or hosting your next event at Club Venetian, contact us to speak to one of our team members or to arrange a tour of our banquet facility.

Club Venetian is conveniently located at the I-696 and I-75 interchange in Madison Heights, Michigan.

What You Should Ask Before You Book a Venue

by

Club Venetian What You SHould Ask Before You Book a Venue

Anytime you are planning an event, you want to make certain things run smoothly. The secret to any successful event is having the right venue. A lot of time and resources go toward putting it together, so it counts to get everything right the first go around. The best method for lining up the right venue is to ask the right questions!

The Basics

First things first, is it available? Instead of waiting until the last moment to nail down a date, ask early on if the venue will be available on the date or time of your choosing. Most venue managers will work flexibly with you to explore every possible option. Since communication in any relationship is key, ask who your main point of contact is and how you can reach them.

You will want to ask yourself if the venue in question is convenient and if guests might have difficulty traveling to attend your event due to construction. What would be the point in hosting an event no one could make? In follow up to this, another critical question is if the location has the capacity to accommodate all of your guests. If you need special equipment, is it available?

Getting Specific

Before you book a venue you will want to ask for a quote to make sure it is within your budget. It can also be useful to ask how long you will have the space and what time it will be available for setup and tear down.

Contact Club Venetian for information or a tour for your next event.

The International Caterers Association serves as a resource to catering teams across the globe by offering training, information, and events. As members of this group, Club Venetian is proud to serve the local community with many catering options.

Club Venetian has benefitted from being a member of the ICA by participating in numerous learning opportunities, which alert us to cutting-edge methods to better serve our customers.

Summertime Fun at a Family Reunion

by

Club Venetian Family Reunion

With summer in full swing, now is the perfect time to host a family reunion to bring your extended family together. The staff at Club Venetian have created this article as a reference to any family looking to host the perfect family reunion this summer. Below we have listed some fun activities you ought to try!

  1. Family Photoshoot

Looking to make memories that last a lifetime? Try organizing a family photoshoot to capture some fun moments during your event!

  1. Hula Hoop Competition

Is your family competitive? Perhaps a Hula Hoop competition is in order. Create a simple bracket of all (willing) family members to compete against each other, with the best hula-hooper last standing! This is a great way to get people moving and bring some energy to the party.

  1. Awards

This is the perfect activity for making personal gifts for family members. Towards the end of your family reunion, create custom awards specific to your family members, a great way to show family members you care. Some examples of awards we have seen include: Best Hugger, Top Chef, and Most Musical.

  1. Who Am I?

Since some family reunions bring together families which have not met for a long time, playing “Who Am I?” can be a wonderful ice breaker activity. To play, write down each family member’s name on individual cards, then stick them to each other’s foreheads. Try guessing who you are!

Interested in hosting at Club Venetian or having us cater your family reunion? Please visit our website or give us a call at (248) 399-6788. We look forward to speaking with you and learning about your event.
