Event Planner
Swallowtail Restaurant & Bar.
Before I started my job as an Event Planner at Swallowtail I researched the history of the business. I was
looking for what previous events they had offered and how they were advertised and marketed. I check on how all socials were used, looked on reviews both recent and past. Their website was stale, lacked
information and needed a complete renovation. This gave me the conclusion that this business need big
changes.
I had worked with a certain business in Spain previous which was in the same situation, so through
experience I knew what this venue needed. Once starting my new job I expressed my thoughts and discussed what I had discovered and the general manager was all for changes. After 3 days of working I
was offered the role as Assistant Manager / Event Planner. I accepted and was excited for what was
ahead.
My role included organising events, from scratch, designing all advertisements. Find suitable
entertainment under tight budgets. Promote the events. Promote and gain followers for both social media
pages. Encourage custom for the restaurant, through specials offer in dining and drinks. I was also in charge of the marketing so organising with magazine companies what adverts were to be produce each
month for the best deals.
As the Assistant Manager I would have the duty to open the Restaurant and Bar alone, This would include
preparation for the day ahead setting tables, setting the bar ready for use, deliveries etc. I would also
close the venue twice a week, which included cashing up. I was responsible for security duties like
entering the safe, access to all CCTV cameras, alarm codes and all keys.
Each Monday I would have to email Linen to collect all table cloths which had been used for the week,
counting each size, arrange collection and deliveries. I was trained to stock take and re order, I also made
orders for food and supplies.
My role also included all ways of communication, via email, telephone, through meetings or just general
customer service.
The business had started offering wedding services before I started but wasn't organised with any type of admin or prices regarding the weddings. So again this was part of my role to research, cost and produce.
We had our first wedding in December 2019, which I solely dressed and set the ceremony for that date as
Im also an event decorator.
In my short time working at Swallowtail, my progression with improving the business is very positive. I
have had extremely good and positive feedback from the director, staff and general public. This winter
has been there best winter in 2 years. They made a profit this winter which hadn't been achieved
previously. Both social media network has improved and to top it all off, we received Business Excellence
Award, which we was very proud of!

2016 - 2019
job
Event Decorator
Myself.
We moved to Spain in July 2016, to the North Coast of Alicante. I had previously been to this area several
times on holiday and released there was a gap in the market for the industry I loved. The area we moved to was a beautiful, very popular area of Alicante that hosted lots of wedding and events. The venues were
some of the most amazing picturesque places.. Prior to moving I had done endless research on what the
area was lacking, the amount of tourists visiting, what the most popular venue was and the amount of weddings and events booked.
I then started to make contact with managers and directors of each venue, I settled quickly, made myself
known through marketing and visited each venue. I arranged meetings, produced my work and was taken on freelance by each company.
I became extremely busy through the summer considering the length of time present.
Each venue had a different setting, so individually that were a pleasure to work with. I had looked into the main three successful wedding planners in the areas in which I had a meetings with, with great success.
They made me a supplier in which they offered me to their clients.
I then went on to decorate many times for each individual business.
Having a young family at the time and my husband still based in the UK unfortunately it was something which would have been a great success with different circumstances. However it was a fantastic
experience.
