Create an Unforgettable Event with Bleu Event Planning
As we have shifted into an experience economy – a marketplace in which consumers would rather pay for an experience rather than products – events have become much more than just your catering services and event venue. Attendees expect your event to leave an impression in their minds. bleu Events offers the most innovative event planning services in the Columbia area.
We take pride in staying attuned to the industry and applying new trends to tried and true concepts to create the ultimate experience. Whether you are looking to create a statement through event production, want to wow your guests with elaborate décor, or host your event at the most desirable venue in town, we have relationships with the vendors you need to make it happen.
Your experience working with us is just as important as the experience your guests have at the event itself. Our professional event planners give you the option of being as hands-on or as hands-off as you’d like to be. Even when you don’t have time to oversee every detail, you can trust that the execution of your event will be flawless.
With any event there is a lot to consider, and it can easily become overwhelming. We handle everything from set up and breakdown, to the guests’ arrival and departure, to the proper timing and flow of your event. Our goal is for you to enjoy your event as much as your guests do. Our event coordinators will help guide you from the start of the planning process to the event itself, through the budget process, food and service style, rental coordination, and other details that your event may entail. Our professional service and industry expertise guarantee that your event will be executed flawlessly and that your guests will leave with an unforgettable experience.
Unlike many event planners, bleu Events offers a full-service event planning package. This means we handle everything in-house from catering and decor, to the service staff you need to run the event. bleu Events also offers exclusive access to two of the newest venues in town – the Atrium on Tenth and the rooftop event space, Pressed.
We know that the financial side of the planning process can be confusing. Important details or expenses may be overlooked, which can cause unnecessary frustration and panic. bleu Events will guide you through the budgeting process, working with you to create a realistic budget that covers every detail of the event so there are no financial discrepancies.
When you work with bleu Events, you are getting access to premier catering services. We offer a diverse menu and beverage selection, with options for every palate. Depending on the theme or goal of your event, our event planners will recommend the service style that best suits your event. Whether your event is a plated meal or passed appetizers, our service staff will ensure that your guests are fed and comfortable throughout the event. Like our event planners, our service staff are highly trained in proper service styles and etiquette.
bleu Events catering prides itself on culinary artistry. We don’t just create pretty plates. Our catering team views food as an experience and is always working to add cutting edge creativity to food presentations. Our action stations, featured displays, and passed around starters will leave a delicious, long-lasting impression on your guests. The food service styles you select for your event are carefully planned and executed in a way that adds interest and decor to your event’s theme.
When it comes to the decor and equipment, we will handle all the rental agreements and contracts. We also facilitate the booking, making sure that everything arrives on site as needed, and that all equipment is properly unloaded and set up. At the end of your event, we make sure all rentals are broken down and returned in accordance with the agreements, so that no extra charges are incurred.
