Event Planning and Management
Planning an event? Need some guidance? Not sure what to order or how to go about it? Want to explore how to get the biggest impact on a budget? Call our event managers. We can assist you with the small details that sometimes get forgotten, until too late.
Event & Labor Services Event Managers are here to assist you in any phase of your planning. We can do anything, from simply answering your questions over the phone, to setting up a time to sit down and discuss your needs.
Understand the Venues: Our event managers are experienced with designing and managing a wide range of events at all campus venues. We can help you choose from the everyday setup, or to design an event realizing your vision.
Reduce the Organizational Guesswork: We can advise you on the policies and important steps to a successful event, including insights on how and when to work with organizations, such as the Registrar's Office, Grounds, Custodial (ABM), Athletics, and more.
Master the Plan: Our event managers can marshal the services and equipment your event requires. We can help you deal with building issues, fire and other permits, with power sources and distribution and safety, with tenting, heaters, and the full spectrum of video, sound, lighting, computers and more. We can advise you with options on dressing up the venue for any look your need.
Onsite Event Management: Once your event has started, it can be difficult to ensure everything is running as it should. At your request our event planners can be actively involved in your event's production, helping on site with logistics and last minute challenges. Hourly charges may apply for this service.
