Attention to detail is key
When planning any hospitality event, attention to detail is key, especially when it comes to ensuring that your guests feel appreciated, comfortable and happy.
So, prior to planning corporate hospitality, you should think about your client's needs and requirements so that you can tailor each element accordingly. Think about whether it's a formal lunch or a relaxed corporate get together you're after and select your choice of hospitality suite to suit your decision, you should ensure that no stone is left unturned when it comes to making your guests feel impressed and special.
Plan ahead
With the demands of everyday business often pulling your clients in all manner of different directions, a corporate hospitality event is a great opportunity for them to escape the hustle and bustle of the office in the optimum comfort.
Allow your guests plenty of time to get the date in their diary and ensure you provide them with full details of the day ahead, including dress code, timings and where to meet. Remember to ask for dietary requirements so that you can pass these onto the venue before your arrival.
Allow your guests to network and socialise
Depending on the purpose of your event, it's always nice to leave a window of opportunity for your guests to network and get to know each other in a comfortable and inviting environment.
If you have booked hospitality or are looking to organise something for the day or evening, ensure you leave plenty of time for your guests to have a drink and get to know one another, rather than having a strong agenda, this can provide the ultimate setting to encourage your guests to relax, unwind and chat whilst enjoying a great game of sport or even a live music concert.
And finally, always remember to give your guests a warm welcome
