FUNCTIONS - PARTIES - WEDDINGS

STEP1. PLANNING

Planning introduction
Organising a large function or party for the first time can be a rather daunting prospect with so many things to organise and legal requirements to consider. Our function planner is aimed at providing you with general advice and pointers to help you when organising a large function or party and where you plan to provide attractions, amusements and services not normally associated with smaller functions and parties.

Here at countyfetes we will help guide you through the various stages from the initial planning, health and safety regulations to using professional services. To help you navigate your way around our function planner we have split it into four sections which are listed at the top right of the page numbered one to four. Within each of those sections you will see a key points navigation bar which will take you to relevant pages within the section you are viewing.

Thorough planning and research is the key to organising a successful large function or party. Start planning your event as early as possible, establish what services your function or party will need and carefully plan when and where to hold your event.

If you would like to write an article about any of your own personal experiences of organising a large function we would love to include organisers comments in our related articles boxes, please fill out our write an article form. To continue reading on please use the key points navigation bar.
