Nonprofit fundraisers are a great way to bring people together for a common cause, and when successful, they can make an impact on the lives of those in need. That was certainly the case at Dementia Together’s Joy on the Journey fundraising event that My Big Day Marketing & Events had the pleasure of planning last week.  The numbers from this event are proof of its success:
Throughout the evening, guests heard from Dementia Together’s Executive Director and other supporters. They heard stories that were both heart-warming and inspiring, and it was clear that the work being done by this amazing organization is truly making a difference in people’s lives. My Big Day Marketing & Events was honored to be a planning partner for such an important and spectacular event! From concept to execution, this event took over 300 planning hours to pull off. Community is an important pillar in all of the work that My Big Day does, and this event was a perfect example of how community and coming together for a common cause can be inspiring and produce good for many!

This year’s annual day-before-Easter event marked the 15th Annual Easter Keg Hunt, crafted, created, and run by My Big Day Marketing & Events.  15 colorful teams took to the streets of downtown Fort Collins for this fun scavenger hunt event full of clue-solving, team shenanigans, and a quest for the golden keg trophy! Stops on this year’s hunt included: Stuft Burger Bar Pour Brothers Copper Muse Distillery Peacock’s Perch Thingamjigits Locust Cider Old Town Churn Brand Spankin’ Used Avogadro’s Number Fieldhouse at the Fort Avogadro’s Number served as the kick-off spot once again. It’s the perfect location for all of the teams to gather and get pumped up with music, food, and drink! Fieldhouse at the Fort, a newer downtown restaurant and bar, provided a great secret ending location for the teams who found all nine of their “hidden” eggs. The 2023 Fort Collins Easter Keg Hunt Golden Championship Trophy went to the Green Team. They gave it their all to answer the clues quickly and came out on top.  My Big Day Marketing & Events would like to thank all of the businesses that participated in this year’s event. We would also like to give a special shout-out to our favorite Easter Keg Hunt photographer, Jen West! You will be able to catch some of her photos on our Facebook and Instagram pages.

You’ve honed your concept, raised the money, found your perfect space, conducted interviews – and now it’s time to open your doors, with the MBD Marketing and Events team’s tips on how to host a ribbon cutting for your new business.  What is a ribbon cutting? A ribbon cutting is a ceremonial opening of your business, usually a formal event where a company representative or local public figure commemorates your new venture. The name “ribbon cutting” comes from the tradition of cutting a large ribbon with supersized scissors to “open” the doorway to the new storefront. Fun fact: The origin of giant scissors can be traced back to the Bronze Age, over 3,000 years ago. Modern ribbon cuttings need not involve the literal ribbon, though it is still a popular practice. The main purpose of a ribbon cutting is to gain publicity for and raise awareness of a new or renovated business. Ribbon cuttings and grand openings are not one and the same. Grand openings are typically the first time a storefront is open for regular business, while a ribbon cutting is a special event focused on ceremony and dissemination of information. Follow these steps to get the most out of your ribbon cutting: Plan First things first, you’ll need to set a date and time for your ribbon cutting. Your local Chamber of Commerce or an event planner can tell you the ideal day and time to host your event. You’ll also want to check the schedule of any officials or public figures you’d like to attend, before settling on a date. Be sure to allow enough time to plan the logistics of your event and to get the word out. Next, you’ll want to start on promotion (see “Promote” below). While you’re spreading the word about your event, you’ll need to prepare and send invitations to VIPs. Planning the ceremony itself involves considerations about who will host and answer questions, whether you will have any speakers, food, entertainment, seating, photography, and swag such as branded gift bags. Hiring a local event planner like MBD Marketing & Events can streamline this process, and we’ll use our huge network in northern Colorado to get you the best deals from your vendors.  Promote You’ll want to get the word out about your upcoming ribbon cutting as much as possible. There are free and paid methods for creating word of mouth about your event in your community. Consider promoting your event through:
If you’re feeling overwhelmed by the prospect of hours promoting your new business while you’re, well, getting ready to open that new business, you’re not alone. Our marketing and events team can handle all of the above for you! Execute Many people, even business owners, don’t realize what goes into putting on an event behind the scenes – but we are experts. Sticking to your event timeline can be a challenge when juggling multiple vendors and inevitable last-minute mishaps. Having an event planning team working in the background ensures your day will run smoothly, but if you don’t, plan to at least have someone to coordinate vendors and logistics the day of your event. Consider things like:
 Publicize Ideally, your early promotion efforts enticed local publications to attend your ribbon cutting and/or write about your new business. But you can publicize your event, too. Share photos and information about your event on your business’s website and social media pages. If your website includes a blog, dedicate a post to your successful ribbon cutting. Your event guests are a great source of free publicity. Encourage them to share your event by creating a specific hashtag for posting about your event – this allows you to easily search for posts made by guests. A selfie wall, or eye-catching backdrop for guests to take photos in front of, is a source of entertainment and visual publicity for your ribbon cutting. For help planning your ribbon cutting and day-of coordination, book the northern Colorado experts at My Big Day Marketing & Events. We take on the behind-the-scenes stress, so you can enjoy your event. For more business marketing and event tips and ideas, follow My Big Day on Facebook, Instagram, and Pinterest.

A winter snow storm couldn’t stop the newest branch of the Bachus & Shanker law firm from opening up it’s doors for some celebratory fun! My Big Day Marketing & Events was honored to be the planning partner for the branch’s Grand Opening - Open House.  Bachus & Shanker are personal injury attorneys who have built their sprawling state-wide practice to help injured people achieve justice. Since they opened their first office in 1997, they have represented over 10,000 people. They are advocates for victim rights, and they are dedicated to the communities in which they work through the Bachus & Shanker, LLC Care Foundation. This foundation has given more than $150,000 to local charities over the past four years. My Big Day Marketing & Events was brought in to help plan the grand opening open house and toy drive for their Fort Collins office. We helped manage the event set up from securing vendors to rental deliveries and set up. Our staff was on hand prior to, during, and after the event to make sure everything ran smoothly. We assisted with guest check-in, bar-tending, and ran the event’s contest drawing.  Guests of Bachus & Shanker RSVP’d for an evening of delicious food, drink, networking, and fun. During the event, there was a surprise visit from Slap Shot, the Colorado Eagles mascot. They were on hand to help hand out the grand prize drawing - tickets to future Colorado Eagles games. Two lucky winners won 4 tickets each to games in December and January.  While the nasty winter weather did have a slight effect on attendance, those that did brave the weather found a great opportunity to network with other industry professionals. The office space had a wonderful break room area that was perfect for mingling over appetizers and drinks. My Big Day is grateful for the opportunity to help plan this celebration and looks forward to building a strong community connection with this company.
