Cinderella
When I say that I design materials for gala events, people often think that means designing just the invitation – and years ago, I would have thought the same thing! But we’d both have been wrong. After being hired by many event planners, I have experienced first-hand the amount of organization and attention to detail that goes into producing a large-scale event.
For example, this week I completed work for just one fundraising event and the projects included: save the date announcement, printed invitation with reply card and envelopes, emailable invitation – 4 different versions, letterhead, full page magazine ad, video ad, 2 display slides, 24 award certificates, emailable thank you and a 52 page program.
All that work and I didn’t even get to go to the ball.
