Sapphire Celebrations is best known for planning distinctive Colorado weddings and corporate celebrations. But did you know we also plan non-profit events? We work with charitable organizations throughout the state to plan, design, and execute their most important fundraising events throughout the year. We oversee the planning experience from start to finish and have also assisted with managing silent auctions. We may be biased, but we believe that hiring a professional planner can significantly impact the success of your next non-profit event. Join us as we dive into the many benefits, from a streamlined planning process to efficient budget management. 5 Reasons to Hire a Planner for Your Next Non-Profit EventHiring a planner saves time.From day to day, you’re busy filling your role at your organization and only have so much time to dedicate to event planning. We understand this and will remove the bulk of the workload from your plate while keeping you in the loop of decisions with consistent, reliable communication. Our extensive experience and network of connections will streamline the entire process so your event comes together quickly, efficiently, and seamlessly. Hiring a planner ensures a smooth and successful event.With event planning, the simple truth is that you don’t know what you don’t know. Attempting to plan a non-profit event without experience could result in a few harmless blunders—or mistakes that dramatically undermine the event’s success. But as professional planners, we’ve seen it all and are experts in disaster mitigation. We’ll ensure a smooth execution of your event with air-tight planning and eye-catching design that will wow your donors. Hiring a planner allows you to focus on hosting.Your most important role at your non-profit event is that of the host—welcoming familiar faces and forging new connections—not the event coordinator. Yet for those who attempt to do both, hosting falls to the back burner as various behind-the-scenes efforts and troubleshooting take precedence. With a planner as your ally, you’re free to spend your time on what matters, with the confidence that our team is working tirelessly to ensure the event goes off without a hitch. Hiring a planner helps you make the most of your budget.Whether you’re working with a tight or big budget, effectively allocating funds is a challenge for most inexperienced event planners. You may unknowingly overspend in one area, only to discover you don’t have enough money remaining for a more crucial component. Or you may not realize which facets of your event are most worthy of an investment. Either way, consulting a planner’s wisdom and experience will help you use your budget to its full advantage. Hiring a planner makes your event more memorable.We’ve also been to ho-hum corporate and non-profit events that didn’t leave much of an impact! If planning a memorable non-profit event is your goal, hiring a planner can help you achieve it. From statement-making design to delicious food to engaging activities, a planner can draw from their vast experience and network of connections to ensure your event is just as enjoyable as it is successful. If your next fundraising event is on the horizon, Sapphire Celebrations would be honored to assist you with planning it. Reach out to us, and give us the details on your event. We’ll be in touch to schedule your complimentary phone consultation! Vendors:Reece’s quinceañera at the Millhouse was a beautiful, culture-filled celebration. Our team was honored to assist with planning from start to finish! Reece’s parents knew they wanted to host the event in their hometown of Castle Rock, just south of the Denver metro area, but weren’t aware of the venues available. Once they shared their budget and guest count, we helped them select the Millhouse. Then, we helped them build a team of fantastic Denver area vendors to bring their daughter’s special day to life! The Significance of the QuinceañeraThe quinceañera is a traditional coming-of-age celebration in Mexican culture. It occurs on a girl’s 15th birthday to mark her transition into womanhood! Typically, she will wear a long, sophisticated ballgown for the occasion to signal her maturity. We loved Reece’s off-the-shoulder gown in a showstopping shade of red with glitzy floral appliqués! We wanted to serve authentic cuisine at the event to honor Reece and her family’s Mexican heritage. The Roadrunner Food Truck was a perfect choice! Head Chef Daniel hails from New Mexico and crafts delicious twists on traditional foods with only the freshest ingredients. His famous loaded tacos, nachos, and burrito bowls fueled the celebration into the night. Designing a Quinceañera at the MillhouseReece wanted her quinceañera to feature a color palette that showcased her love of pink. However, she also wanted the celebration to feel mature rather than girlish to signify her entrance into womanhood. To accomplish this balance, we selected décor in shades of blush and bubblegum pink with hints of red to match her dress. Ignite Experiences created a custom flower wall that was the pièce de résistance of the event! Pink and ivory roses covered every inch of the surface, which made it the prettiest photo backdrop. Meanwhile, Reece’s quinceañera cake by The Makery Cake Co. perfectly combined design elements from the flower wall and her dress. Lush red roses and burgundy carnations spilled down the side of the tiered treat, which also featured a glittery “15” cake topper. It looked stunning sitting atop a scarlet satin tablecloth, with the flower wall just behind! We are so glad Reece’s family entrusted us with planning her quinceañera at the Millhouse. If there is a reason to celebrate, Sapphire Celebrations can help you with all your design and coordination needs! Get in touch today to learn more. Vendors:Planning: Sapphire Celebrations
