Event Production in Bedfordshire

MMG Events provide a whole host of production services and are based in the Bedfordshire area. Read on to find out their thoughts on what you need to consider when hiring suppliers for your events.

What do you need to know from an organiser in order to provide a comprehensive quote?

To provide a comprehensive quote we require information on the venue that is being used and any known timings.

We need to have a description of the event and if there is anything specific that you want to be able to do, we can then make allowances for all of this in the technical specification.

The best way to go through this is usually a phone conversation or meeting as it allows you to see who will be taking care of your event and for you to explore various options.

What advice would you give to a customer looking to hire a provider in your area of work?

Make sure that the provider is able to deliver, everytime. The last thing you want is your supplier dropping out at the 11th hour for any reason. Events require robust systems and experinced staff.

Ensure that all crews being used are experienced in their feild, we have been contacted many times to solve problems caused by inexperinced suppliers.

Weigh up if the difference in price is worth cutting back on the service levels, if you are already spending on an event whilst it is good to ensure lower overall costs make sure you know what you are not getting in order to do this. It could be the finishing touch that will make your event memorable!

Please tell us a little bit about how and why you started the business.

We began as a live music PA company touring with artists big and small. Our director, Ryan Majchrowski began working in the industry as a drummer but over time moved into the technical side as an audio engineer. As things progressed MMG Events began life and we offfered full production solutions.

We have since been working in the corporate sector and supply Audio Visual Production to a wide range of companies. The mission on MMG Events is to provide high end Audio Visual Solutions with a five star service level at great prices.

Please tell us about a booking you've had through Add to Event, how did it go? Would you recommend us to others?

I would reccomend Add to event to others. It provides a portal to event organisers and enables us to communicate with them well.

The messaging system is great and unlike some other platforms it doesn't restrict you on outside communications, which is sometimes needed to dicsuss events and requirements.

We have had small and large events through the platform all have gone very well and been as stated in the descriptions.

Great way to meet new people in the industry and well executed.
