The Advantages of An Event Planner & Venue Coordinator

Hey there EWC followers and friends! I thought it would be a good time to give you a little bit of insight into my role at Wallsend Diggers as one of the Conference and Events Coordinators and to provide a few reasons why it’s such a benefit to our customers and members to have someone in this dual role.

I say it is a dual role because I consider myself to be a venue coordinator who plans events and these are two different but interchangeable things. As you may know already, I have been with Diggers since 2019 and have loved working for the club and building their events department alongside the catering team over the past few years. In this time, we have created memorable events with repeat business and loyal clients that continue to use our venue and services year after year and it has been wonderful.

So, let's talk about why having an event planner who doubles as a venue coordinator can be a game-changer! It's all about making your life easier and ensuring your event is a smashing success!

First things first, the communication game gets a serious upgrade with this combo pro. No more back-and-forths between different people; they can smoothly liaise with both you and the venue, making sure nothing gets lost in translation.

Think about the precious resource we all wish we had more of…time! With a single point of contact handling both planning and venue stuff, you'll save tons of time and see things come together way faster. That's efficiency at its finest! Do you know what's even better? Having a venue coordinator who's also an event planner can boost your bargaining power! They've got the inside scoop and can negotiate sweet deals and discounts with the venue, meaning more bucks saved in your pocket.

But it's not just about saving money – it's also about creating a seamless event. With this pro in charge, your event design will perfectly match the venue's layout, resulting in an unforgettable experience for all your guests. And let's be honest, planning an event can be a bit stressful. But fear not! Working with a main contact for both the planning and venue aspects takes a massive weight off your shoulders. You can breathe a sigh of relief and actually enjoy the process.

Oh, and did I mention it's cost-effective too? Say goodbye to juggling multiple professionals; this all-in-one package saves you money in the long run, no doubt about it. Not only that, but it also builds a rock-solid relationship between you and the coordinator. You're in sync, they get your vision, and that means your event is going to be everything you dreamed of and more.

With their expertise, you get comprehensive solutions for your event – everything from the design and layout to the catering and entertainment is covered. It's like having a superhero for your event-planning needs! And you know what's truly great? The level of reliability and accountability you get from this combo pro. They take charge of both planning and venue aspects, so you can trust that they'll deliver on their promises.

If you weren’t 100% sold on the idea before then I hope this blog post gives you the confidence and peace of mind to use my services at Diggers or any venue where the event planner is also the venue coordinator!
