In ordinary office work, we always do our part sound and good. When the time comes like you are appointed to host an event organize a function or simply handle a company activity; we always fall in some kind of panic! Where to start, who to ask and what to do…
You stay on this page means you are seeking for answers for the above questions! And you’re in the right place! Let me show you some simple steps to start from scratch and save the day by only a few guidelines.
Location, Location, Location
Book a relevant place for the event is always the first thing to do.Grab a few information notes from your boss to find the right location:
1. Number of guest and VIPs
Important to screen the size of the location and also take care of VIPs’ favorites.
2. How the food is served
A dinner would limit your choice like a beach or boat party. Where cocktail would go almost anywhere!
3. Is the media involved?
Media would climb over a mountain to get their juice, but if you wanted promotion by them, you must consider the convenience for them.
The banquet manager just wanted to boost sales!
Put a couple of play card in your pocket before picking up the phone!
2. The venues always offer certain services like on location waiter service.All you need is asking!
3. Minor things push to the venues and save your headache. Like the built in stage, backdrop settings, and centerpiece. There would likely to have in house
Schedule the run down ON A PAPER!
Now you have the skeleton, find your fresh and plug-in the soul!
List down the must do items. And try to fill in the in between space with less important things. Of course not everything will be held by a host! You might consider getting your work mate to finish the job one by one.
Recruit the right person
You may need MC, game hosts, performers, AV control, decoration team…
Get them all together might not be applicable all the time. Try to brief them once met.
And recap right at the time they arrived. Or just put all burden to a PR firm, only if you’ve got budget!
Just try to stay organized and you will find all things work as the flow of river.
That is you really has to get going and non stoppable. But things will end somehow!
So make it finished in a gorgeous way! Like the saying in showbiz, the show must go on.
Never and paralyze by any sudden bad news come to you, you may not find the solve but
You could definitely make things different. Enjoy them and you’ll have “Good Show!”And you never worry about event management anymore.
Mark Six result change many people’s lives in Hong Kong.
It looks unrealistic to think about how my wedding would
look like if I get that kind of money.
But the very important concept is how you do
budget your wedding!
You might have millions dollars to spend on your wedding.
But how do you spend such lump sum to those all variable items.
That would be a disaster when you do not get any control on it.
See this is not a problem of inadequacy. But to make it as good as
you dreamed and cost as little trouble as you can be kind of art.
Here are some little hints to cut your headache.
1. First thing first. Book the venue and chapel in advance.
Even the place is an island;
you need to make up your mind.
The changing mind of the couples and other “authorities” would
not make the whole thing screw up.
2. Take you sweet photo before everything!
That is simple. And the photos will bring you encouragement to face
all the crazy mutiple items. And your face looks good in photos and
Don’t get interfere by the other troubles come a long way.
3. Find a good friend to serve you before finding the wedding planner.
The wedding planner only wants your money and makes you feel fine before
she leaves with the check. She might settle everything. But you paid the
price would be something more than money!
A good friend serves not for his pocket but relationships. He would be
a kind of relationship guard for you, your family, and all others!
It does not really that troublesome of a wedding!
On the bright side, you play a memorable role in your life and that is not
money can buy. Of course not a mark six result can change!
Recent days I visit a lot The Wedding Decorator. It is a blog well loaded with tons of photos and bright caption to make you catch the important idea of how the decoration is done.
Eventhough many many different styles of wedding come from all over the world might not be your cup of tea, I’m sure you could definately be inspired and get your idea on your wedding decoration issues.

How about a Moroccan style wedding to you!
The richness in content could bring you more than enough material to brainstorm how to decide you wedding style.

結婚大事,總有些熱心的親友前來襄助。但是有心無力,有頭冇尾或蛇無頭不行等,都令婚宴埸面失色,混亂甚至不能完成。作為主人家,人手分配,統籌妥善至為重要。以下提供要注意的重點:
1.找個負責人
找一位親善大使做負責人。他的主要工作是聯絡,提醒和保漏,若然你欣賞他的品味,那當然是最好不過!
2.先定項目,再定人手
人多不一定好辧事,最重要是每個人都明確知道自己負責的項目。先定項目,比如定了要做背板,迎賓枱,就再找幫手,一人一項各自去忙。做負責人的他也許不能或不會進一步找幫手,主人家就要出面找人。注意切勿通通倚賴”兄弟姐妹團”,他們全日伴隨,難以抽身做準備工夫,反而不美!
3.開制作會議
因為”項目負責制”,不用等齊人才開會,但負責人必須在一起,因為要由他去跟進。詳細指出要求,樣式,顏色,物料,尺寸。如要進一步和場地了解現場環境,主人家親自接洽有效得多。安裝需時多久,安裝時是否需要多些人手協助都要詳談。
4.準備工夫
大日子前一週,負責人要發揮工能。聯絡各”項目負責人”,撿視進度,有需要時加以協助。因應各人的工作時間,約定進場時間。並跟場地方面協調工作時間。
5.安裝當日
一對新人到了大日子,千絲萬縷的忙進忙出,把整個佈置工作交給”負責人”,一切由他主持就成了。而負責人於工作完成時通知一下主人家就可以。一般都可由場地清理有關的佈置。

整個婚宴佈置包含三個主要部份:
1.迎賓枱
2.背景板
3.歺枱面
1.迎賓枱
場地一般提供圍桌布,在桌面放簽名畫,筆等。
較簡單的可於正日前夕在花墟購買新鮮玫瑰,用報紙包好花朵,
根部沉在水中,當天帶回,在現場把花瓣撕下來,
舖在桌面,其新鮮及花香是重點。
紗布圍邊,到深水步買”柯根紗”,長度是桌面三邊的兩倍。
把布每隔三尺, 用絲帶打一個蝴蝶結, 再用大頭釘把布條固定在桌邊。
在結位可加絲花或鮮花.
2.背景板
用場地提供的中英文字粒比較簡單, 大可利用.
但是背板颜色就未必合意!可往深水步買布換色.
注意透紗雖然柔和, 但若透現背板的深紅色,
看起來颜色就會深沉了!可選取SATIN, 既光鮮順直又不會透光.
如背板頂部有鈎, 可先用膠喉把布的頂部固定, 再掛起.
記得之後才貼上字粒.
預算許可的話, 可直接購買兩座座地花擺設, 放在兩旁,
直接了當,大方得體!
3.歺枱面
現時流行回禮小禮物, 若然採用場地提供的枱花, 可於枱花旁估做一個
“Hightea cake rack” 把小禮物一層一層放於小架上, 既是禮物,也是擺設!
雖說不難, 關健郤在人手分配上,下回再談!
話題很多,請各位多多提意見,多多指教!

在結婚籌備過中,佈置環節往往被忽略。到日子臨近,才發覺婚宴場地所提供的根本不對勁,不足夠或不合心!到時才找街外公司又沒有空檔,到最後關頭才求朋友出手相助,莫說追求完美,挑剔一番,就算能否完成工作,也是未知之數!
話雖如此,只要用心安排,也可佈置自己做。
1.視察場地
一定要親自睇場,約好有關負責人,二口六面問個清楚:有冇枱花,枱布顏色有冇選擇;有冇新人名字字粒,字粒尺寸,背板是否另建,多高多闊,要知尺寸,有沒有顏色選擇替換;如要在現場簽婚書,前台的闊度是否足夠;把光線較至最光,對比正常光線;若有席前酒會,查詢食物枱,其他枱椅的分佈等,掌握多點資料,於設計時就可以更加全面的掌握大局。

主題婚禮似孚是社會名人的專利。但事實有很多新人都能搞一個自己心儀的主題婚禮。
花園婚禮:
不一定花數萬金元找花店做一片花海也可做到。留意一點就是不一定要鮮花!場地提供鮮花也不必一定採用!重點是進場時的「簽到枱」要放一至兩組鮮花擺設,讓客人於簽名時近距離感受花之香美!氣氛格調也可大大提升。在桌面用單支的花擺設,簡單而精緻才是重點。台上背板就特別用絲花將新人名字及咪支加點花襯托,再於背板的頂橫線加鮮花蕂和少量鮮花,整個花園的氣氛就會顯現,將重點不會被摭擋的位置加花就可以了。
現代中式:
七十年代龍鳯大禮堂已不復見,但中式卻是很受歡迎。於紅色背板做四至六尺高的立體双喜字,在大双喜字中藏著夫婦的姓或名,然後於双喜字的兩旁放至中式庰封或座地紅灯籠,最後於簽名位放置傳統文房四寶的毛筆吊架,及毛筆座,座的當然是普通筆!大紅繡金線的桌圍不是每個地方提拱,可在紅圍布前再加大紅布繡球,風味十足。
紫醉金迷舞會:
在迎賓位放水晶灯,以暗灯光為主調,桌面放水盤小燭。台上用相片噴畫背板,或用布藝背板,加一點水晶吊珠便可,現時有人用長毛地氈放在台上的地下,實在因已被摭擋,作用不大又耗費。
主題各有心思,筆者也見過深海主題,雪地主題,櫻花主題等……可以各自發揮,大家可以找公司代勞,但要自己動手,就要「醒醒定定」,下回再談。

在香港結婚,選擇婚宴場地往往是首要考慮。全因熱門的場地經常於特定日子爆滿,若要—些特別日子如08.08.08,09.09.09,10.10.10….今年的十—月十—日,各大酒店早於一年前就訂滿!
除了特別有紀念價值日期外,更有與在宴會場地進行簽字儀式有關。以下簡單談談在選擇場地與有關場地佈置的注意事項。
1.簽字儀式地方是否式足夠;
是否容易給客人清楚看到所有參與儀式的人。更要撿視有關桌椅於儀式前後之移動是否方便,務求整個流程順暢。
2.拍攝相片的要求:
是要在婚宴場地作重點,多拍—些結婚夫婦照,還是大量賓客要影數十人的團體照?前者要將台前或入口位做點工夫,令其更加”可攝”;後者就要確定背板前有相當距離,好讓攝影師拍攝闊鏡相片。好些新開的”酒樓”,雖然沒有酒店的格調,但各個”景點”如迎賓區,背景板等都十分精緻。將另設專頁一談。
3.氣氛因素:
很多重要要求都因場地限制有很大影響,如很多粗大柱位摭擋視線;樓頂太低,所有佈置都在拍照時給相中人摭擋;長方形場地,或是大後方看不到主角,或是台設於中間只對著正前方的一兩桌。
在選擇之先稍為定一下自己的要求,就可以對要選擇的地方有初步的準則了。

成年人開生日會,都分老中青。
今日同大家講下老人家擺大壽。
做仔女既都想找個好機會表示一下對父母的敬意愛心。老人家囗囗聲聲:”不要,不要”,卻是甜在心頭的。心意上,自家人一圍檯,或是大宴親朋,都沒有很大分別。
自家人在家中倒不用佈置,
到食市訂房就可做點功夫。
自家製立體壽字並不難
到文具店買切割發泡膠的小型手刀,於日本均一價店也可買到:
用電磁加發熱線,小心用不要讓小孩觸碰以免受傷。再買半寸厚發泡膠,一般是2尺X3尺,做一個壽字已足夠了。再買硬咭紙,可選金咭或紅咭。自己用毛筆寫當然可以,但用電腦打字再用影印機放大不是難事,也企理得多!把紙稿貼在咭紙上,再把圖樣剪下來,然後用白膠漿貼在發泡膠上,旁著硬咭紙用發熱線小刀把筆劃鎅下來。再在背面貼雙面膠紙,就可以到現場貼在牆上。
方間有將貼紙貼在飄浮鋁模氣球上的服務。
可將指定或原創設計的畫像文字,甚至相片貼在飄浮的氣球上,所費 無幾!再加上十多個橡膠飄浮氣球。小小房間也氣氛十足!
全統與摩登
全統日生酒,一味紅色,紅布繡球,紅燈籠,紅色背板……,雖然有點土氣,確實令老人家精神奕奕,心中開心不防多做!至於新派一點的是用英文,燭光,甚至羽毛等物料.,順帶一提,,時代進步,手機處處,人人拍片,可在訂房時找一些有播放短片設備的,把平時柏下來的生活點滴播放出來,更勝千萬禮物!
