What Really Goes Into Event Planning?
What Really Goes Into Event Planning? People often ask us what goes into planning an event. The short answer? Everything. At Crush and Bow, event planning means juggling design, logistics, emotions, timelines, and vendors—all while staying calm, creative, and detail-oriented. The process begins with discovery. We work closely with our clients to understand their goals, theme, guest experience, and budget. From there, we create a customized event plan that includes a timeline, budget breakdown, vendor suggestions, decor concepts, and more. We guide every decision, ensuring nothing is left to chance. Our event planners manage everything from finding the perfect venue and creating seating charts to building mood boards, managing load-in schedules, and prepping for inclement weather. We confirm vendors, track deliveries, coordinate installations, and monitor every detail on event day so things run like clockwork.We also serve as emotional support. Planning a big celebration can be overwhelming—and we’re here to listen, guide, and take stress off your shoulders. You can rely on us to be organized, honest, resourceful, and fully invested in making your vision come true. Planning an event is a full-time job. Luckily, it’s ours. Whether you’re planning a wedding, birthday bash, corporate dinner, or pop-up experience, Crush and Bow is ready to make it memorable, stylish, and oh-so-smooth. ~Hanna
