    I love your transparency. I could relate to you talking about barely making any money on an event, but no more. People have no idea how much it costs for materials, the time to set up a QUALITY event as well as the creativity in designing. God has blessed your business and I pray for your continued blessings!

      Thank you Linda! This means so much to me. Event planning can be so taboo because we all charge differently. I charge for what clients I’m targeting ❤️

    I've watched the setups of your events and they have all been very beautiful and elegant, even the kids parties so whatever you charge is worth it. You may be an over thinker when it comes to your events but that just shows that you're thoughtful and you want to see your clients satisfied with executing a great party and your inventory is wonderful! I'm taking notes! ♥️🤩😄

    Wow Thomas! Everytime I see your storage it blows me away with the amount of items. Thank you for the guidelines for preparing for an event. Like the idea of not giving a final price until a downpayment is made, as some potential clients don't commit. Yes it's better to wash all table linens you carry to an event, whether they were used or not before returning to storage. It eliminates any doubt of whether it's clean.
    I am starting to get some coloured table linens now, have the basic white. I am up to 4 storage bins😂, getting there slowly but surely.

    • @EOEDesigns
      @EOEDesigns  Рік тому +1

    Thanks for doing this video! I’m just starting out and I don’t charge much for an event. With you saying that’s something you did help me because people are telling me I should be charging more. I was telling them that’s how you get clientele, advertisement and experience.

    • @EOEDesigns
      @EOEDesigns  Рік тому +3

      Yes! I publicized my “cheap” rates on Facebook and had some event coordinators reach out saying I was undercharging. Of course I knew I was but the gain from each event was clientele and inventory. I thought of it as an investment into my own business and to God be the glory it’s paying off.

      Hi QueenSaint, I don’t know if it works for you and depending on the heat levels, I wrap every 12 chargers in saran wrap after I clean them. I have to do that because I’m not a business but I have a big family. We have holidays for some of us but could be a barbecue, birthday, graduation, engagement, wedding for 75 to 250.
      I love all the EOE Designs videos I’ve seen!!

    Does linen have to be professionally washed or reg home machines is ok? When you’re buying chargers, how many do you start with? I love long videos. Last question sorry. Do you fill up dessert table, like gum balls, cupcakes candy table, etc? I love your balloons arches. I would love to see you use flowers with the balloons too. Or maybe you already do that, and I just haven’t seen it yet.

    • @EOEDesigns
      @EOEDesigns  Рік тому +1

      I use to have my linen dry cleaned but it had become expensive so I wash them at home and dry two table cloths at the time to keep the wrinkles down. When buying my chargers I started with 50 and worked my way up with each color. Overtime I’ve just accumulated so many of them. For the desert and candy tables I don’t provide anything edible but if a client wants me to stage the treats or asks if I have containers or display stands I’ll bring them. I’ve used flowers with my balloons in one of my most recent balloon videos and I’ve used them for a butterfly themed baby shower as well.
