5 Fantastic Golf Course Event Planning Ideas

Golf Course Event Planning

Did you know that about a third of Americans enjoy golf as a recreational activity? If this describes you, incorporating the sport into your event planning is a great way to bring you together.

Whether professional, formal or simply fun, golf course events take your excitement to a whole new level. Read on to learn some tips and tricks for planning one of these awesome events and making your day one to remember.

1. Decide: Formal or Informal?

Before hosting an event, you need to decide whether it's going to be black-tie, T-shirts and jeans, or somewhere in between. Any type of event works well on the rolling green of a golf course.

Whether you want an elegant wedding or a corporate team-building exercise, our facilities can accommodate you. The venue is inspirational, gorgeous, and affordable. Make sure that you consider the event and talk to others involved about its overall aesthetic.

2. Create a Unique Theme

Once you decide on dress and decor, you can start creating a theme for your event. Golf is, of course, going to be a part of it.

But what will the vibe be? Will you want to use a specific type of flower in the decor? Does there need to be a family theme for your reunion or some workplace shoutouts at a professional event?

Consider these questions and make a theme surrounding them. The theme can be as simple as a color scheme.

3. Hire a Professional Photographer

Hiring a trained photographer is essential when planning any event. Photos help you capture every moment so that you can look back at it later. This is always a good idea, but it's especially important if you're documenting a wedding or long-awaited reunion.

Make sure that you look at various photographers and their portfolios. Find someone whose style works for you. Take the time to look at reviews and make sure that your photographer has a good reputation.

4. Send Out Classy E-Vites

A classy event requires classy invitations, and e-vites are definitely the way to go. They save paper and people are less likely to lose them. Plus, it's possible to animate them and add images that would not be possible on paper invitations.

Make sure that your e-vite matches the overall color scheme and theme of the event. Capturing its aesthetic is a great way to get people excited and in the mood to attend.

5. Use Appropriate Planning Tools

Finally, make sure that you use appropriate planning tools to get people to the party. Google Docs is a great way to get all affairs in order and let people collaborate on planning.

If the event isn't a collaborative one, make sure that you email guests updates on appropriate forums. It's critical to keep everyone in the loop.
