How to Create Memorable Virtual & In-Person Events

episode 34

Whether virtual or in-person, events are a great way to connect and reconnect with others. But how do you create experiences that guests don’t want to leave and can’t stop talking about? On this episode, Jacqueline Broadus, Founder and CEO of Perfectly Elegant Designs, shares her tips for curating events that inspire and delight guests and ensure that people feel truly connected, like family, and leave better than they came. 

Jacqueline Broadus has a degree in fashion merchandizing and had a career in law enforcement before founding Perfectly Elegant Designs where she is the principal event planner and design creative.

We also talk about…

  • How her 20 years in law enforcement informs her role as an event planning/business owner.

  • How COVID has forced her to tap into her creativity and think outside the box.

  • How to tap into your uniqueness to set your event apart.

  • Her gift for incorporating “How did you know?” touches for her clients.

  • How to combine IRL touches to elevate virtual events.

  • Why it’s important to pay attention to what lights people up.


You want people to walk away with something. So they leave better than they came. You want them to actually be talking about the event, like they didn’t realize they were there for two hours…what’s even better is if you can get them to not want to leave.
