The timeline for planning and booking corporate events varies significantly based on event scale, objectives, and desired amenities. For most corporate event projects, we recommend beginning the planning and goal-setting stages at least 6-12 months in advance. Regardless of
corporate event plans in Rhode Island or in neighboring Massachusetts, it’s never too early to begin the planning process! The longer the lead time, the better if you plan on hosting a large-scale event with thousands of attendees. The extra time allows for thoughtful consideration of each detail so the efforts seamlessly integrate into all areas of your business. With high impact on venues, it’s recommended to secure hotel bookings up to 3 - 5 years in advance (no joke!), while most other vendor partners, including entertainment, catering, photography, and videography, can be effectively coordinated within 3 - 12 months of your event.
Typical planning and booking timelines for smaller events range around 3 - 9 months. Even for smaller events with 50-500 guests, beginning the research, sourcing, analysis, negotiation, and booking processes in advance is advisable to make the most of your budget. Adequate lead time improves the chances that preferred venues and providers are available. If alternative options are required, our adaptable planners have a long list of options to accommodate your dream event plans!
