Barnes Place Formula for Event Success
The folks at Barnes Place work hard to create grand events. In an effort to guarantee consistent event experiences, Barnes Place has created a patented event formula.
It’s All About Theme
Nothing is more important than the theme. Hours are spent on developing the perfect theme, and ironing out the details of execution.
Guest-Participants
Today, people are looking to be entertained, and entertainment is becoming more interactive. Therefore, Barnes Place guests are more than guests; they are Guest-Participants. And while we’re on guests: invite everyone. Most people don’t like to mix ‘church’ friends with ‘work’ friends and such. Why, we’ve never figured out. But we have found most adult guest-participants can handle mingling with crowds than they wouldn’t otherwise. And besides, if they don’t get along, it will make for a far-more interesting evening for all. Just remember, regardless of what happens, event hosts can never be held responsible for the social faux pas of their guest-participants.
The Four Points of Impact
It’s important to be budget conscious, so Barnes Place chooses to focus resources on the areas where it counts the most: the Four Points of Impact.
- Invitation: Set the pace and tone of the event through a classy, uniquely designed invitation, enticing guest-participants to attend the event.
- Entry Impact: Create dramatic impact as your guest-participants enter. Entry decor ties strongly to the event theme.
- Sustained Ambiance: Selectively emphasize important ambiance details which tie closely to the event theme to create an overall impression.
- Exit: Create a take-home gift, which is presented as a surprise, and is a wonderful reminder of the great time had by all.
