    Planning the Day

    Planning the venue layout

    A well-planned layout can make the experience comfortable for guests, performers and organisers.

    Guest Arrival

    Consider guest registration, ticket checking, sponsor displays and gathering space.

    Stage and Performances

    Plan space for speeches, awards, musicians, dancers, cultural performances or an MC.

    Banquet Seating

    Arrange tables according to attendance, service format, stage sightlines and family or community requirements.

    Dance Floor

    Allow suitable space where folk dancing or live entertainment forms part of the program.

    Photography and Video

    Plan positions for photographers, videographers and group photographs without blocking guest movement.
