Assignment Contributor Name(s):

Congrats! Your family heard you’re taking an events management course and they’ve asked you to help plan your favorite uncle’s retirement party. It’s a bummer that nobody in your family has a huge backyard or owns a restaurant or catering business. You’ll have to hire out for everything.

Here are the details:

150 guests
Anywhere in the USA - you may use sample proposals provided or seek other opportunities in your hometown if you wish
Space for any other entertainment that your guests will love
Loving toast / roast for your beloved uncle

Narrow your list down to three [2] viable venues. List them here:

Example: Name; City; website link
Venue Option #1:
Venue Option #2:

For both venues, what is included in the package / what will you need to outsource?

Item	Venue #1	Venue #2
Example F&B	Exclusive caterer: M’s Culinary	No restriction on caterer
Food & Beverage
Bartending
Venue Rental fees
Audio Visual
Equipment [tables, chairs, etc.]
Parking

For both venues, what is the known estimated cost for all of the items listed above? If you’re allowed to bring in outside vendors, include an estimate from an outside provider.

Item	Venue #1	Venue #2
Example F&B	M’s: $110 pp includes dinner, soft bevs and dessert	In house caterer: $65 pp includes dinner, $13 pp soft bevs, cake delivered from bakery $200
Food & Beverage
Bartending
Venue Rental fees
Audio Visual
Equipment [tables, chairs, etc.]
Parking

What threats or potential issues do you see with either venue? [there is always at least one!]

Will your vision for entertainment and decorations work in one space better than the other?

Which venue will you select and why? [It doesn’t have to be the cheaper option.]
