I have been a professional DJ since 1999, a mobile DJ and entertainer since 2012 and a music coach and producer since 2018. I have a top of the range EV soundsystem, a beautiful lighting rig including moving heads, lasers, UV and smoke (if required, or allowed!) and two teenage children so very used to entertaining and playing music across the full spectrum for all ages and tastes.

I booked Zoe for my daughters 5th birthday party as she had so many great recommendations on FB. Zoe was absolutely fantastic from start to finish and my daughter and her friends had the best time ever. Zoe asked lots about my daughter before the party to make sure it was tailored for her. On the day all the children were completely engaged which made my life very easy! Zoe’s two slightly older children were fantastic too, helping with the games and encouraging everyone to join in. In summary Zoe was super professional and I would have no hesitation recommending her very highly! Thank you! ☺

DeNovo worked with us at a recent summer event sourcing and supplying all the entertainment, catering and bars. Their organisation helped us deliver a fantastic event to many guests.

As one of the organisers of a SEND National Crisis rally in Brighton on 30 May 2019, I contacted many companies looking for support for our event.

I just wanted to say a HUGE thanks for our lovely Bell Tent. Probably the best camping (glamping) experience we have ever had as a family. Everyone commented on how stunning it looked, and we certainly turned heads with it. It was a really hot & sunny weekend, so when it was too hot we just unzipped the bottom (so easy) and relaxed with the children out of the sun with fresh air flowing through and a picture perfect view. Pure bliss. Cannot wait to do it again! Although the children are now requesting a Harry Potter Goblet of fire themed one for next time.

What tasks can a Party Planner help with?

Creating an event design

How do I choose my Event Planner?
Following these steps will ensure that you find the right Event Planner for you:
Objective - Before you start your search, you need to work out the event's objective, the budget you are working with, and your reason for hiring externally. You want to be in a position to communicate the broad outline of the event and its most important goals. You will also want to decide on the budget for your event planner and what they will be expected to do. A party planner can select the venue, recommend food and beverage options, source speakers and entertainment, be on-site on the day and create the invitations.
Find your event planner - You want to hire someone who has expertise in creating your type of event. Word of mouth is one way to find an event planner but it's not always the most effective approach. Look out for a company with experience and a strong reputation and do your online research by reading company reviews on Bark.
Interview applicants - Most event planners will be eager to hear about your event. Give them brief details at first and focus on their expertise in the initial round of interviews. Reduce your list of candidates to the three strongest applicants. You should then ask each finalist about their business, their experience with past events, and how they plan for contingencies.
Decision time - Once you have hired a company, the event planner should be able to share a detailed plan for the event with you.
Budget - Many people who organise an event for the first time want a champagne event on a beer budget. You need to work together to come up with a realistic budget. Plus, do not forget to find out about the fees that will be charged by the event planner and how they will be incorporated into the budget.
Follow up - Make sure you stay on top of the event planning and do not force the event management expert to make major decisions without your input.
You can be confident that any of the Bark local event planners listed will give you a reliable and professional service.
How do I check my Party Planner’s credentials?
There is no formal training required to be an event planner, although they usually have a degree or certificate from a university in event planning or management.
Before you choose an event planner, it's always worth checking out their customer reviews on their website and Bark profile. This ensures that they are trustworthy and reliable.
Can I get an Event and Party Planner online?
Absolutely! Whether it's finding the best DJ or getting your catering sorted, your event and party planner will be able to organise pretty much every aspect of the event online. You can even find the perfect venue through interactive virtual venue tours - pretty neat stuff!
