How to Build Your Event Dream Team

Reflect on a memorable event you’ve attended. What do you remember? For most, memories of sensory experiences such as the aesthetics, food and music come to mind. Everything flows perfectly and the surrounding environment and venue space engage and entice the guests. 

How does this all come together? A high quality and memorable event do not happen by chance. They are meticulously orchestrated as a collaboration between the venue associates, vendors and event planners.

An important factor to consider is that your venue point person helps match the theme of your event to vendors in the corresponding industry so your vision can come to life. Vendors play an essential role in most events. For example, igniting your senses through visuals with vendors specializing in offerings such as opulent florals, twinkling lights and peaked reception tents may be the primary goal for an event like a wedding or reception. In another scenario, corporate teambuilding may work with vendors who offer experiential activities like axe throwing or a scavenger hunt. There are hundreds of vendors offering wonderful services—which is great but may make it challenging to choose who to work with.

Your venue sales associate and designated event planner have experience in choosing vendors. Their expertise lifts the event-planning stress off your shoulders. With over 30+ years of collective experience, the Chatfield Farms private events team knows which vendors are best suited to bring your event vision to life. We have a list of preferred or accepted caterers, vendors and event planners. Anyone listed or recommended has proven their capabilities as a vendor, ranging from quality to customer service and response time, and importantly, to knowing and understanding the venue space that they are working in—Chatfield Farms. 

We can’t wait to help you build your event dream team! Every spring, Chatfield Farms hosts a Vendor Showcase to introduce our community to our talented and loved vendors. The next one is May 5. Admission is free, but you must register in advance. 

We hope to see you there!
