FAQ
Corporate events in Singapore: conferences and seminars, town halls, dinner and dance and annual dinners, awards ceremonies, product launches, office openings, team building, overseas retreats, and hybrid events for teams across the region. If it needs a venue, a programme and vendors, it is the same job with different content.
In practice: venue sourcing and negotiation, a written brief to every vendor so quotes can be compared, the run sheet and call sheet, guest invitations and registration, catering and dietary needs, AV and staging, the rehearsal, show-calling on the day, teardown, and a recap afterwards. The parts nobody sees are the parts that decide whether the day runs on time.
Both, and the honest answer is that packages suit standard formats. A hotel dinner with a simple programme or a half-day team-building session works well as a package. Anything with a stage programme, several vendors, VIPs or a tight setup window is better quoted against your actual brief, because that is where package assumptions start costing money.
Either a fixed management fee for an agreed scope, or a percentage of the event budget on larger events, where we will agree a cap. Our quotes show the fee separately from event costs. Remember that hotel and restaurant prices are quoted before 10% service charge and 9% GST, which adds about 19.9%. Our cost guide breaks down what drives the total.
We are there. Our team handles setup, checks vendors in against the call sheet, runs the rehearsal, calls the show from the back of the room, and stays for teardown. The point of hiring us is that the people who organised the event get to attend it.
Usually not for a private event inside a hotel or your own premises. Public spaces, public performances and temporary structures such as stages or tents are different, and the approvals take time rather than money. Our guide to event permits and licences in Singapore explains which apply, and we handle applications where they are needed.
Start with the venue as soon as you have a date range and rough guest numbers, because the venue usually decides the date. December, January and the weeks around Chinese New Year go first, so year-end dinners need the most notice. A small internal event can come together in a few weeks.
We plan for the things that fail most: a spare microphone, a spare laptop holding the slides, printed run sheets in case the Wi-Fi drops, and a recorded backup of any live demo. Every vendor is on one call sheet with a mobile number, so when something goes wrong there is one person to call rather than a search through emails.
Yes. If the ballroom, emcee or AV supplier is already booked, we plan around them and coordinate on the night. We will still ask the venue for its event rules in writing — setup hours, overtime charges, noise limits and whether outside AV is allowed — because those decide what your programme can include.
Your date or date range, guest numbers, the type of event, any venue you have in mind, what has to happen in the programme, and your budget range. A budget range is not a trap: it lets us tell you what is realistic instead of guessing, and it stops everyone wasting time on proposals that were never affordable.
