Common Planning Faults and Avoidance Strategies
Inadequate timeline management represents one of the most frequent planning failures, with many clients underestimating the coordination time required for complex events. Poor vendor communication often leads to service conflicts, scheduling overlaps, and quality inconsistencies that negatively impact guest experiences.
Budget mismanagement frequently occurs when clients fail to account for hidden costs such as service charges, transportation fees, equipment rentals, and emergency contingencies. Many event planners also overlook important legal requirements including permits, insurance coverage, and safety regulations that vary across different Kenyan jurisdictions.
Cultural insensitivity can severely damage event reputations and relationships, particularly when planning celebrations for diverse communities with specific dietary restrictions, religious considerations, or traditional protocols. Inadequate backup planning for weather disruptions, vendor failures, or venue issues often leads to last-minute chaos and compromised outcomes.
