How to Organize Your Time and Workspace for Event Planning

For those of us in the event planning space, organizing your time and your workspace is critical to your success. Between the flowers, the guests, the music, and of course, your clients, there’s a lot to manage and only so many weeks, days, or hours to do so.

Here are three top tips from the event experts at iStyle Event Planning for getting the most out of your time and your work area for event planning success:

1. Purge Your Workspace.

This step is important! If you have any experience planning events, you know how

important clarity is to the whole process. Choose a designated area that will function as

your workspace for the next few weeks (or months) and clear it of any old projects or

clutter. Once you rid yourself of all the inessentials, you’ll be able to focus much better at

the task(s) at hand.

2. Get a Master Planner.

This tip might seem like a no brainer but one supersized master planner can help you

organize your thoughts. Start by highlighting your biggest dates and filling the smaller

things in between. You’ll save time, hassle, and a lot of heartaches if you can literally see

the big picture early on.

3. Build a Vendor Cheat Sheet.

You’ll spend more time talking to vendors than with anything else. Find out who you

want to work with on this project and let them know your expected event dates from Day

1. If you choose all your vendors in the beginning, you’ll be much less stressed when

crunch time rolls around for your upcoming event.

But the #1 time saver of all time? Hiring an event planner! By working with skilled event

planning professionals like Darra Michelle and her team at iStyle Event Planning, you never have to do any of the work yourself. Simply give them a few key details like your dates, goals, and target outcomes, and they’ll take care of everything else. All that’s left for you to do is spread the word to your friends and family and, of course, show up.

Until next time.
