Planning a corporate event in Orlando can be a large task, especially if it is for someone special who is coming up on retirement. If you are faced with the task of planning a retirement party for a CEO or President of your corporation, it’s important to know the retiree’s desires.
When retiring, many people want a full-fledged party, and some just want a small lunch and to downplay the celebrations. Have a conversation with your retiree to determine what they want for their retirement party. Once you have determined what they want, it’s time to start planning your Orlando corporate event.
- Who, What, Where & When – Determine who will be invited to the party so that you can properly plan the venue to suit the desired number of guests. Once you know the tentative party count, start to look for venue locations. It’s important to know whether or not they want a party during the day or at night; this will also help you determine a theme for the party.
- Theme – Talk with your retiree about a theme for the party. “Bon Voyage” is a popular theme, but it won’t suit everyone. The party should properly reflect the retiree and the impact that they made on the company.
- Make A Schedule – If you want to party to go off without a hitch, then plan an itinerary or schedule. Make sure that you have someone who can properly toast the retiree and have people lined up to give sentiments about the person at the party. A schedule will help.
- Make Memories – Once you are ready to kick off the party, remember that the entire event is about making memories for the retiree and make sure to have fun.
