clipped from ezinearticles.com Event Planning Checklist Tips The key to successful event planning is being resourceful and avoiding uncertainties. The more you research your available resources, the simpler it is to overcome any obstacles to your objectives and pull off the perfect social function. When putting together any social function, business party, special event, or mini festival, you can’t begin advertising or producing promotional material until you have chosen and contracted a fitting location. Likewise, it would be putting the cart before the horse, to sign up a speaker or book your entertainment before your event visions have been brought clearly into view.

The next time you plan a business event, whether a formal dinner, seminar, conference or award recognition ceremony, the following corporate invitation websites can help you find the best style of invitation to fit the occasion. These sites cater specifically to business invitations, or have a section dedicated to corporate event invitations, whereas most of the other sites online are for wedding and other social occasion invitations.

I compiled this list so you don’t have to go hunting around for corporate function invitations the next time you need invitations for your event:

www.myexpression.com

www.paperandmore.com

www.irisb.com

www.paperstyle.com

www.invitationbox.com

www.finestationery.com

www.invitationconsultants.com

www.ballisticblue.com

www.thepartystartshere.com

www.announcingit.com

There are other corporate invitation websites other than those listed here, but these seem to offer the best user experience and professional look and feel.

Locating an Event Venue isn’t easy, and fortunately many websites exist that provide detailed venue information to help you locate the perfect venue for your event, whether you need a wedding venue, party venue, or business meeting venues.

The following list is by no means complete, but should provide a complete-enough list so that you don’t have to hunt around anywhere else:

www.gatheringguide.com

www.ultimatevenue.us

www.venuehunter.net

www.eventective.com

www.MyAffair.com

www.uniquevenues.com

www.cvent.com/destination-guide

www.agendaonline.com

The above sites have either a search feature to narrow down your selection by state/city, capacity, type of event, etc. or provide some kind of directory structure to browse and locate the type of venue you need.
