It’s all about the personal touch: How to host a personalised memorable event
Imagine hosting an event so unforgettable that guests can’t stop talking about it. One that sets trends instead of following them. Whether you’re celebrating a milestone, getting married, or planning an extraordinary corporate experience, the secret to standing out is event personalisation.
The great news is that event personalisation is one of the biggest trends right now. Thanks to advances in technology, it’s now possible to transform almost any event into something distinctly unique and memorable using entertainment.
Here at The Entertainment Fixers, we go beyond just booking performance artists. We create one-of-a-kind, bespoke celebrations that truly bring your vision (or your brand) to life.
What do you mean by personalised event entertainment?
This is one question we’re asked all the time. Surely, personalised event entertainment is just adding your name or brand logo to something that’s already been created.
For those on more limited budgets, that’s true.
There has been a shift in what’s possible within mainstream events. It goes beyond merely tailoring menus, curated playlists or individual gifts or favours.
Instead, it truly embraces the party host or theme and incorporates interactive elements that are unique to the person or company.
That’s partly due to better technology lowering costs and making it easier to establish immersive experiences.
But it’s also due to the nature of social media.
Everyone wants to be the host of the event that goes viral (for the right reasons).
Having immersive, tech-driven or personalised events gives guests an experience they’ve never seen before. It offers new opportunities to reimagine your brand in ways that have never been possible. Whilst keeping your event bespoke to you or your brand.
How personalised entertainment makes events unforgettable
Never underestimate the “wow” factor when it comes to hosting events.
A personalised event is more than just a gathering. It’s an experience that:
- Creates lasting memories
- Keeps guests talking long after the event
- Generates shareable moments for social media
- Strengthens brand identity and emotional connections
With unlimited possibilities at your fingertips, it becomes easier to offer bespoke, personalised celebrations that truly enhance the overall guest experience.
Customised celebrations for you to bring into your next event
Cake Video Mapping
The cutting of the cake is an iconic moment of any wedding celebration, and thanks to cake mapping technologies, couples can tell their love story through moving imagery and videos projected directly onto the cake itself. Instead of static decorations, cake mapping allows movable images to transform tradition into innovation.
This is a perfect example of how the cake mapping technology can be designed specifically to the imagination of the couple. What’s more, corporate brands could also use this video mapping technology to bring their corporate events to life.
Perfume Bars
A lasting favour for any party is a personalised perfume bottle. While it’s perfectly acceptable to offer guests the same fragrance with tailored packaging, it’s also possible to implement your very own perfumery into your event. Inviting guests to play around with scents and create their very own fragrance (unique to their own preference) is a fantastic corporate event experience.
Cocktail Creations
It has been around for a long time, but bespoke cocktails or mocktails are still a perfect way to bring personalisation activities into your event. From renaming classic cocktails in honour of guests, to designing personalised drinks menus or creating drinks toppers, the possibilities are endless.
However, for a truly unique experience, creative mixologists can work with corporate brands to create entirely new creations just for the event. Those mixologists will visit your home or office to test options in advance, and to create a drink that truly encapsulates who you are as a business.
For personal events (such as weddings or birthdays), those mixologists could work with happy couples to create cocktails that tell your love story – perhaps implementing flavour combinations from previous holidays or invoking memories of your shared history.
Sand Artistry
If you’ve never seen live sand artistry, you’re missing out! Talented sand artists create their masterpieces live from a sandbox on your stage, with a camera feed showing audiences exactly what the creation is on screen. This is a fantastic example of telling a story through art – we’ve witnessed many corporate clients telling their brand story through sand art. It’s something that is memorable – combining simplicity with effectiveness.
The artist can tailor the performance to your brand history, corporate vision or celebrate a particular message. With real-time interaction between the artist and the audience, it’s a real must-see and recorded can be the perfect keepsake or video to be used on social platforms.
LED Tron Dancers
If you’re searching for a way of incorporating technology into traditional entertainment, why not explore the potential of LED Tron dancers? Thanks to state-of-the-art LED costumes (which can be programmed to reveal your brand logo), you can enjoy seamless choreography with a difference. Guests will become immersed into the atmosphere, giving them something that they’ve never seen before.
Drone Shows
A final option is to move away from traditional firework displays and create your own bespoke drone show. With fewer environmental considerations to think about, and complete control over the sound and music, you can create a display that tells something specific to you.
We predict that as drones become more mainstream and technology prices lower, customised drone shows may become more budget friendly.
Talk to The Entertainment Fixers for personalised entertainment
Bespoke entertainment is transforming corporate and private events, turning celebrations into immersive, unforgettable experiences. If you want to give YOUR guests something to remember, why not talk to our team? We have a wide range of artists available for you to browse, but our exceptional team can offer practical recommendations of how you can transform your entertainment into something special.
Our years of experience means that we have a network of contacts we can work with. We can offer suggestions on how to tell your personal story or bring your corporate branding into each entertainment option. We can share advice, showcase examples of personalised experiences and help you examine what is possible within your budget capabilities. We can also let you know any new options available in the entertainment world.
But, more importantly, we can help you identify if your preferred customised entertainment will work within your venue limitations or date preferences.
For example, you might love to have a bespoke fireworks or drone show, but if your date is the 21 June (the longest day of the year), it might not be the best use of your budget. Similarly, LED Tron dancers and video mapping technologies need specific lighting capabilities to be at their most effective and any light in a venue can hinder the performance.
We won’t expect you to know what your venue requirements are, so we can be the go-between, liaising directly with your venue on your behalf, minimising your stress and collaborating to create a customised option.
Ready to wow your guests with a personalised event experience? Whether you’re planning a wedding, corporate gala, or private party, our team specialises in creating bespoke entertainment that captivates and impresses. Let’s make your vision a reality – contact us today to start planning!
