Engaging, memorable & inspiring events within the community

It's simple. Events are hard, but they don't have to be.

You might resonate with someone who harbors a brilliant concept (let's call it 'A') and envisions an event of epic proportions (let's dub it 'Z'), yet finds themselves lost in the labyrinth of tasks from B to ELEMENO P!

Here's where I come in.

Hey, I'm Kara!

I kickstarted Elevated Events in 2021 with the goal to help organisations create amazing events, where every detail holds significance, fueled by innovation, boundless creativity, and my seasoned expertise.

No more spinning in circles, grappling with where to begin. Or enduring endless nights, tossing and turning until 3 am.

Nobody has time for that... well, maybe some do, but not when it comes to events!

As the organiser/owner/creator, I believe you deserve to have an epic time too!

Here’s how I can help you:

Flexibility is super important. I’m all about finding different ways to help you as much as you need.

My main gig? Taking your event and making it totally awesome!

Your thinking.. “great, so what does that actually involve?” Well…

Logistics. Setup and pack down. Contractors. Entertainment. AV. Suppliers. Strategy. Social Media. Budgeting. Relationships. Health and Safety. Ticketing. Best Practice. Venues. Catering. Transport. Creative genius and overall superstar!

Basically, for anything associated with pulling your event together - I’m your lady!

NB: ( I don’t MC or sing! I leave that to the professionals, and luckily I have a few up my sleeve!)

  • I assist in designing the event, taking care of all the moving parts, and leveraging my local connections to bring it all together. All the while ensuring that you and your attendees have a fantastic time!

    This involves handling Event Logistics, managing Budgets, sourcing Venues, booking Suppliers, organizing Entertainment, managing Ticketing, and tackling any other tasks that need attention.

    Additionally, I can also be present on the day of the event to ensure everything runs smoothly.

  • If you have the event under control, but maybe you need a little help with marketing your event to the masses.

    I can help pull together a marketing plan and execute this, ensuring you get people through the doors.

  • Sponsorship is essential for events and provides much-needed financial support, and can help to elevate an event's profile and reach.

    However, securing sponsors requires an artful approach that involves identifying the right partners, building strong relationships and ensuring a successful partnership that is mutually beneficial.

  • Why are you holding your event? Do you need help creating a vision and strategy? Or perhaps you have all the resources, but have no idea where to start and how?

    A little guidance may be all you need, to get you started with a plan or to help with the final sprint, pulling together last minute details before the event.

  • Lets be honest, some people just don’t have the time or prefer that someone else takes the reigns over from the get go.

    We know that every event and client is unique, and we take pride in delivering a personalized solution, tailored to them.

It’s not all talk, I have:

  • 10 years of experience across multiple regions and events. From meetings to 800 pax dinners, intimate gatherings to 7000 pax festivals, even local and international sporting events. 

  • Network of local relationships who I work with to bring your event to life (essential for those tricky jobs). 

  • Experience in the public and private sector.

  • A no-nonsense attitude when it comes to the important stuff - budgets, waste, runsheets and H&S.

I work on the ethos of you get out what you put in. If you want great results, with minimal enthusiasm, it's just not happening. That’s why I give 110%. 

I pride myself on my Event Planning and Management services, and my ability to get the job done.

As my client, you are left feeling relaxed and ready to enjoy yourselves at your event, knowing I've got it all under control.

Check out some of the events I've worked with!

It's crystal clear to me: crafting unforgettable experiences is paramount.

With a little more thought around the detail and an experienced side kick (aka me), events can be FUN (and with less stress!)

Sure, there'll still be stress, but it won't be your event! It'll be that the kids have asked for a snack for the 16th time before dinner!

As you can tell, I take events seriously but I also like to have fun along the way.

Life’s too short for long meetings that don’t move the needle, terrible coffee and poorly planned events.

In my view, events serve as the very foundation of our social existence. Whether you're the mastermind behind the scenes or soaking in the atmosphere as a participant, every moment invested in events holds immense value.

Still not sure how/if you need help?

Flick me a message and let's chat! I love a good event brainstorming with like-minded people!
