How event decor and small event planning works

  • Lesson 1 of 18
  • 5 min read
  • Free lesson

Decorate and plan birthdays, baby showers, umembeso, weddings and year-end functions, with decor you own or hire.

Who it suits

Creative, organised people who enjoy styling and can handle clients and suppliers under pressure.

Who pays

Families and companies planning events.

What they get

A beautiful event without the stress of organising it.

Is there demand?

Event hire suppliers publish prices you can quote from (for example a 6 x 12 m tent R3,500 and chairs from R6 each at Linda Events). We found no published price list for decor packages, so quote per event.

Real examples
  • Birthday and baby shower styling
  • Traditional ceremonies
  • Weddings
  • Year-end functions

A good sign: two paid events a month.

  • You know whether to carry on or adjust

You report this yourself. Nobody checks, so it only counts if you really did it.
