Conference Contacts

We thought the event was organised and ran extremely well. All of our staff had a fantastic time, great fun! Would recommend Maximillion.

Meraki Talent

Maximillion ran the Urban Adventure for our teams with the activity run in Edinburgh city centre and the feedback has been nothing but positive. The activity brought teams together from different offices and different business areas and was a great way for everyone to get to know each other in a fun and informal activity.

Nucleus Financial

Your team on the night for installation were on time, super efficient and gave clear guidance on usage of the games and when I called to say we’d finished early – returned quickly and dismantled with the same efficiency.

Natwest

Like many other professional service providers, we are often metaphorically ‘spinning plates’ and ‘juggling’ competing priorities, so it was great for our team to try these challenges in real life. We discovered hidden talents and it reinforced that working as a team and providing a supportive learning environment are key to delivering an excellent result. Thank you to Maximillion for your support and encouragement during this fun event, as well as for your professionalism in pulling together a slick activity for 220 people.

Lee Hamill, Director of Finance

I received emails from the participants saying how much they enjoyed the event. Our HR manager stated he would use Maximillion again. Many thanks for all your effort.

TAQA Britani Ltd

Thank you to Mike, Ross and Sandy from Maximillion for the team building in the afternoon, murder mystery that evening, Belbin Team Roles next morning, a fantastic team building session in the afternoon and, finally, a great barbecue that evening provided by Norton House. Although some of us were a bit slow of the mark the second day, the same positive attitude and enthusiasm from day one prevailed and I think we all got something out of it. It was clear to me that everyone was communicating and working together better by the end of the afternoon.

Abbot Risk Consulting

John Abbot, MD

Everyone had a really good time and loved all the different levels and variety that Level-Up brought. Maximillion always provide an excellent event and guide you through the organising process with clarity, confidence and advice.

Davidson Chalmers Stewart

Everything from start to finish was amazing and Jenny kept in constant contact – couldn’t fault Jenny or the company whatsoever. Organisation/Communication was 100% perfect.

White & Mackay

Just to say the event went brilliantly on Saturday. Had some really good feedback from people and everyone had a great time ???? Thanks so much for all your help!

Awards Ceremony FAQs

How much does it cost to put on an awards ceremony?

The cost of an awards ceremony varies greatly depending on factors like size, location, entertainment, and catering. Smaller, more intimate events can be less expensive, while larger, more elaborate ceremonies can cost significantly more.

What is the etiquette for award ceremonies?

Every award ceremony has a few etiquette rules.

From the basics, like arriving on time and dressing appropriately, to more subtle things, like being mindful of others and showing appreciation. And of course, if you’re an award winner, be gracious! Make sure to thank those who contributed to your success.
As the organiser, make things like start time and dress code clear in the invites so your guests can follow the general etiquette rules.

What to wear to awards ceremonies?

The dress code for an awards ceremony typically ranges from formal to semi-formal. Men are normally expected to wear suits where as women tend to opt for evening gowns, cocktail dresses, or elegant suits. If you’re planning a unique theme for your awards ceremony, make sure to state the dress code on the invitation.

How to plan an award ceremony?

Planning awards ceremonies involves several steps:

  • Determine the purpose: Decide what you want to celebrate.
  • Set a budget: Allocate funds for venue, food, entertainment, and awards.
  • Choose a date and time: Consider guest availability and peak seasons.
  • Select a venue: Find an awards venue that suits your event size and theme.
  • Create a guest list: Invite relevant individuals or groups.
  • Plan the awards: Determine award categories and selection criteria.
  • Arrange entertainment: Consider speakers, performers, or special guests.
  • Handle logistics: Arrange catering, transportation, and accommodations.
  • Promote the event: Use marketing channels to generate interest.
  • Rehearse the ceremony: Practice the order of events and speeches.

All this might seem like a lot, but an experienced awards ceremony planner can help keep you on track or manage the whole thing for you! Get in touch today to see how we can help take the stress out of planning your next awards ceremony.
