Rollin’ with the Punches!12 Oct
Festive seasons always call for merriment & much awaited reunions!
I always look forward to the noise & catching up with old friends. Although it’s not a massive reunion (in fact, it’s always a figure less than 20), meet-ups like these are memorable. And definitely self-planned.
The Plan: Meet-up & go house-visiting.
The Ideal No. of People: About 15
Ideal Start Time: 1600 hours
Actual Start Time: 1800 hours
Come event day, only half that number could make it & we were 2 hours off track. But so What? We just went with the flow! & still went home feeling pretty high from all that laughing!
My point is, when organising anything, keep in mind that there are many uncontrollable factors that might affect your guests/participants’ schedule that would not allow them to come (making your guest size smaller). But that doesn’t mean that the event should be put to a halt or be postponed.
In fact, sometimes, for private informal events, the smaller the number, the much more intimate it gets!
And of course, be on your toes so that you can easily think of alternatives should anything happen. Executing and managing an event might seem relatively easy when everything is going according to plan. Should unplanned things crop up, don’t stop looking sharp & composed. All you need to do is put on a smile & roll with the punches!
Your event (no matter how mini it is) will definitely be something to talk about (& good things too I’m sure)!
Here’s to making sure “The Show Must Go On!’
Excuse me while I reminisce over my Revival Reunion pictures!
Stay Sharp!
