Planning an alumni event
There are many things to consider when planning an alumni event. With people bound to be spread over locations far and wide, begin planning as soon as possible to help make the event a success.
Aim to hold the event somewhere central to the majority of guests. This will ensure that everyone can attend without traveling too far or incurring additional costs. When it comes to the guest list, try messaging your alma mater to see if they can point you in the direction of fellow students from your year. Social networking sites such as Facebook can also be helpful tools for tracking down old classmates.
You will need a large enough venue to accommodate all of the guests comfortably, so consider sending out a letter of interest before you begin booking venues. This way, you can gauge how many people are likely to show up, and you can book a space accordingly.
When you have your venue secured and know how many people want to attend, consider whether there will be a charge for your guests. If so, you should include this vital information on your invites. Now it’s time for the next step of the process, sending out the official alumni event invitations! Choose a design from our broad selection, follow the simple steps, and leave the rest to us!
To ensure nobody forgets about the upcoming celebration, use our follow-up tools to send a reminder notification a few weeks before the big day. Now sit back, relax and let the excitement build!
