Thank You Schulich School of Business at York University

Thank you to the wonderful students at the Shulich School of Business at York University for their kind invitation to have me speak at their Entrepreneur Night. It was a pleasure meeting the future entrepreneurs of Canada!

Quick Tip: Conferences

If your conference runs over more than one day, be sure to have regularly scheduled breaks and at least one 'social activities' night. Even if you have a tight schedule and an end goal for the conference, try to give people some time to socialize. We all know that many of history's greatest deals have been made with a relaxed chat over a nice bottle of Merlot. 

New Logo!

I am thrilled to announce the new logo for Type A Events. 

Many thanks to the talented graphic designer Isabel Grosse-Holtforth in Munich, Germany for her many hours of dedicated work. For other examples of her work take a look at www.isabelgrosseholtforth.de

Florals for Fun!

One of my favourite things to do is helping clients choose their florals. Whether for a wedding, a social event, or a corporate event, florals can add a unique touch to your event.

Options! Options! Options! That's the overwhelming task in choosing florals.

I always recommend meeting with your florist to discuss the florals that will be in bloom during the season of your event. Let your florist know your colour scheme, your budget, and the types of arrangements you need. Don't be afraid to ask for less expensive options within the same family--you can often have flowers that are of the same hue and which vary widely in cost. 

Also, try using trees and foliage as accents to the flowers you choose--branches are an exciting accessory to your arrangement.

As always, whether it's a private or corporate event, try to make your floral arrangement an exciting and unique addition.
