How to Make your Event Memorable in Nairobi
So, you’ve planned an event? That’s great! Organizing the basic elements for an event is perhaps the most time-consuming task, and it’s likely that you’ve thought through every detail of your venue, attendees, merchandising and activities. But what about the little touches that will make a lasting impression on your guests? It is important to pay attention to the little gestures that leave lasting impressions.
Personalize Invitations
Appealing to your guests on a personal level almost guarantees a memorable experience and will exceed all expectations. You will need to do preparations before the day – just doing your homework and placing a name on every invitation you send. During the event, greet your guests with their favorite drink. What better way to thank them for taking the time to honor your invitation? This small gesture could make a big impact, and make a real difference.
“Wow” Your guests.
One hard fact to note is that although you may have been working very hard to make your event a reality, to your guests, it is one of the events they will attend. It is your responsibility as the host to make the event stand out. If it is a business event, you’ll need to put in a little more work to set your event apart from the rest. There are more than a dozen ways to do this; create photo opportunities, work with talented creative like DJs, MCs, and Photographers, or make the wow factor, the venue itself.

Don’t underestimate the power of good food
It’s been said time and time again, but there’s no denying that good food is an essential attribute of any event. Providing food at an event isn’t just a case of feeding guests, it’s about hosting them and making them feel welcome. Make sure that you spend time selecting a great menu that will resonate with your guests as a real reflection of your event. Consider your guest list, and be sure to factor in dietary requirements and food allergies. Events are ultimately about hospitality – conversations and connections are often built around sharing great food. There is so much room for creativity when it comes to food, so step outside the box and opt for anything but sandwiches!
You can work with #EventPlanners to design bespoke menus to suit every guest or theme of the event.
Follow up after the event
So once the event is over, it’s time to relax, right? Not yet! If you really want to secure a place in the minds of your attendees long after the event has ended, make sure you keep your foot on the pedal. Reach out to your delegates while they’re still reeling from the event and keep them engaged while they’re still feeling inspired by creating an upsell opportunity, or asking for their feedback the day after.
By factoring in a few extra touches when planning your event, your attendees will have the best possible experience, and are more likely to remember your event for all the right reasons!
