You spend countless hours planning this fabulous event and BOOM! — the inevitable happens. You have 80% rain chances all day accompanied by dangerous lightening, hail and maybe a tornado here or there. What happens next? You start to panic because you neglected to hire a professional planner to help you with your bad weather plan—just kidding. During a disaster is not the time to create your bad weather plan. So, while you are planning your event, ask yourself the following questions:
Is my event venue in a low-lying area prone to flooding? Your guests will be ticked-off if they leave your event and have to retrieve their vehicles from Sea World.
What is the venue’s back-up plan if the facility loses power? Generators I hope!
What will be the back-up plan if you have to cancel and notify all 300 close friends and family? Common sense would keep them away but you always have the ride-or-die crew who just want to party.
What’s the weather like in your locality during the time of year that you will have your event?
Stay safe!
