Top 3 Tips for Corporate Event Planning

Corporate events such as conferences, tradeshows, or employee recognition events, can require a lot of planning. At A&B Partytime Rentals, we work with businesses and event planners to ensure these events have everything they need to run smoothly. Today, we wanted to share some corporate event planning tips, including examples of rental items regularly used for corporate events.

Determine goals and create a plan

As with most projects, determining goals is often the first step. Ask yourself: What is the event trying to achieve? How will success of the event be measured? Keep these goals in mind throughout the event planning process. Another essential first step is creating a comprehensive event plan that includes every detail from task delegation, deadlines, budgets, and invite management.

Carefully select vendors

From venues, caterers, and of course event rental suppliers, carefully select partners that will help make the event run without a hitch. Regularly communicate updates and changes to your suppliers, and have key contacts handy on the event day.

Make it memorable

What are some ways to leave a lasting impression on attendees? Whether through entertainment, a take-away, or a creative theme, think of ways to make the event really stand out from the rest.

Planning a corporate event this year? Let us help you determine what rentals you might need for the occasion. Browse through the examples below in our Catalogue, and Contact Us directly for more information.

Event Rentals for New Year’s Eve

Looking for some inspiration for your New Year’s Eve party? How about some glitz, glam and romance? In the table setting featured above, touches of sparkle are added through our Blush Sequin Linen, Votive Glass Hobnails and Mirror Tiles. Contrasting White Chiavari Chairs with Black Chair Pads and a centerpiece Candelabra add some drama.

If you are hosting a cocktail party, here are some essential bar items to keep the drinks flowing:

A cold beverage dispenser that holds about 46 cups (Note: Cannot be used for beverages with fruit pieces/garnish as this may clog the dispenser spout).

You can never have enough ice at a party. See our variety of ice containers, including this ice caddy that can hold up to 100 lbs. of ice.

And of course, glassware. The best part about renting glassware…you don’t have to wash them! See a full list of glassware and other bar rental items in our catalogue.

Please note: We are closed December 24th to December 27th for Christmas and December 31st to January 3rd for New Year’s.
