event planning
getting started
We have shared in some amazing events. Experience shows that those
events don’t just happen by accident – it’s all in the planning. The more
time you invest up front, the more you will be able to relax and let the
experience unfurl before you. There are incredible resources available to
help you plan. From our experiences, here are a few starters, tools and
tips to make your event remarkable.
key questions
- How can you set your event apart from other experiences?
- What would you like your guests to remember most when they leave?
- How do the event activities fit into your budget?
establish a timeline
- Organize every detail as early as possible.
- Have a soft timeline for events to keep yourself on task.
We say soft timeline to allow room for modification of the
timeline, be prepared for the unexpected.
get your priorities right
- Build a team. It is a monumental task to plan an event, get people
involved and review the good and bad from previous experiences.
Go over some of the items in the checklists, then decide who will take
care of which items.
- Make a list of the details you can’t live without. Everyone has an
idea of what there event is going to look or be like in their head.
Make a short list of “must haves” for your event. If you budget
these things in first they will have a better chance of actually
making it into your final plan.
event & online resources = planning
made simple!

your event - no matter what size. Plan your event, book room

food service
All food served on the hotel premises must

culinary team. Due to the hotel having no
control of how food is transported, stored
or secondarily prepared after it leaves the
premises, no leftover food from catered
functions may be taken from the hotel.
Notice: consuming raw or undercooked beef,
steak, meats, poultry, seafood, shellfish or
eggs may increase your risk of foodborne
illness, especially if you have certain medical
conditions.
beverage service
All alcoholic beverages, served on the hotel
premises (or elsewhere under the hotels
alcoholic beverage license), must be
dispensed only by hotel servers and
bartenders. Alcoholic beverage service may
be denied to those guests who appear to be
intoxicated or are under age. All of our
servers and bartenders are certified by TIPS.
TIPS is a skills-based training program that
is designed to prevent intoxication, underage
drinking, and drunk driving.
