How to Plan a Small Function to be Remembered

Organising a function always takes time. Every detail must be covered. This planning checklist will help you stick to a schedule in the lead-up to your event.

Picture Your Perfect Event – Develop a vision of exactly how you want your event to go and the sort of atmosphere and experience you want to offer to your guests. Is it casual or chic? Will you have a meal, or drinks and appetisers instead?

Choose a Venue – Compare a range of event space options to find the best function room venues. Whatever features you want in a space—a location close to Birmingham New Street Station, a private screening area, your own bar, a friendly and responsive host, stunning views, or anything else—search for Birmingham venues that tick all the boxes.

Send out Invites – Get the invitations out at least a month in advance to ensure the availability of all your guests.

Sort the Food and Drinks – Work with the chef or your own caterer to craft a delicious menu for your event, and ensure that there's a well-stocked bar on hand too.

Entertainment – If you need to book party games or live entertainment for your function, now is the time to make the necessary arrangements.

Saving Money on a Small Function

A successful event will always come in under budget, so use these wallet-friendly tips to help lower the cost of your next party. It's a doable task when you have a few key tips.

Keep the guest list short.

Choosing a small venue gives you a good excuse to be ruthless when putting together your guest list. Be very thorough when deciding who to invite and you'll be doing your wallet a big favor.

DIY where you can.

It's much more convenient to let party vendors and other experts take care of all the hard work of setting up your celebration, but it's also expensive. That's why you should do it yourself whenever possible. Invitations, decorations, floral arrangements, even some of the catering—you can drastically reduce the total cost of your special occasion if you're willing (and able) to roll up your sleeves.

Compare, compare, compare.

Right out of the gate, you've found a venue that offers all the features you need—but don't book it just yet. Shop around with Giggster to find the most affordable options before you make a booking, and use the price search filter to find event spaces that fit your budget.
