Can you feel the excitement buzzing in the air?<\/p>\n<p>Your milestone event is theater in live action. Except, you don\u2019t get a typical rehearsal process to work out all the kinks.<span id=\"more-1199\"><\/span><\/p>\n<p>Every event you host represents your brand, your company, and your passion. A poorly planned event with details overlooked sheds an embarrassing, and unprofessional light on your organization. To pull off a dazzling experience from curtain opening until close, your event designer must have the knowhow to bring all of the moving parts together smoothly.<\/p>\n<p>Like a theater director, an event designer doesn\u2019t simply manage a checklist, but instead brings a production to life. To coordinate such a creation, your director must provide attention to detail, expertise in production and a full understanding of your brand\u2019s personality.<\/p>\n<p>Every theater production requires expertise in all <strong>areas<\/strong>:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Stage Management<\/li>\n<li>Costume Design<\/li>\n<li>Set Design<\/li>\n<li>Lighting Design<\/li>\n<li>Directing<\/li>\n<li>Acting<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>The same is true for a skilled event designer.

Because of this, the risks are high. That means one chance to connect, interact and WOW your guests with an experience that will leave them craving more.<\/p>\n<p>One chance for a lasting impression.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>By: Cylie Svartoien, Marketing Specialist, Kingham Signature Events Set the stage \u2013 can everyone see the action?
