EVENTS - The little icing that can make a difference - BY ALAKA TOBI

The little icing that can make a difference .


Have you ever wondered why wedding works and marriages rarely do?


Most times , focusing so much on the monetary value of our work as an event planner or third party vendor gets us carried away from our humane responsibilities . we rarely care if the wedding we planned works . Last two weeks during the EMN 10TH Edition @eventmarketnigeria of meet and greet ,one of the speakers Debbie Akwara , asked a question , she asked if any event planner or vendor had ever thought of doing an extra promo of a baby shower planning or child's 1st year birthday as part of the benefit of patronising them.


Off course hearing that would make one question yourself on where you've actually been missing it . The truth is , since the cake is sweet already , everyone at most times forget the little icing that could make a difference . I'm sure no one thought of adding icing to a cake for a while until someone thought of it eventually . The funny part is , the awesome design carved out of a cake's icing is what actually attracts us to the cake the most ,before the content (cake) is savored.


Have you ever wondered if a marriage could survive if only much effort is put into it as much as the efforts put into its planning .


How would you feel if couples whom you shot their wedding pictures calls you to do their Gold year wedding photoshoot?


How would you feel if you shot parents wedding and also end up shooting their first child's wedding? Let's always remember the significance of the little icing on the cake .


Always add an extra difference, send lovely quotes on marriage and love to your clients , follow them up with it throughout your planning days to the early months in marriage . You never can tell how a 3 sentence quote can safe a marriage .





You've had many clients , so you know how your job works but they've only had just this one marriage they are in so there would definitely be some trying moments . Make a difference today , add a little icing .
