Cultural diversity and ethnicity are important now more than ever. 2020 will not only be remembered as the year of mourning for those affected by the virus, but it will also be known for one of the historic movements that sparked revolution around the world. People have learned that when together, nothing is impossible. Change might be slow, but hey, it’s finally happening! With change being in our minds, ROCKNEVENTS is here to pass onto you the massive chunks of how-to-include-diversity-in-your-events cake that will help bring that essential change at your events.

It’s more than Where People Belong

Knowledge of different cultures will provide you with an insight into how, deep down, proud we all are of our cultural roots. But, it also makes us tolerant of each other, which we think only validates the fact that we understand and respect other cultures. 

We believe that understanding people and their backgrounds is as crucial to community growth as it is for personal growth. So?

Embrace the Culture!

Welcome the diversity with open arms at your event. This doesn’t mean that you google what kind of themes your clients might be interested in based on their ethnicity. Instead, talk to them and get to know what their rituals are, where would they want their rituals to be held, etc.

At ROCKNEVENTS, our event management team believes in full co-operation with whatever suggestions our clients might have, and take inspiration from them. For example, our wedding planners and event designers along with the entire ROCKNEVENTS team made a Persian-Indian wedding feel like a dream come true! We even made customized coins depicting Persian numbers on one side and other accessories.

Seating Arrangements

Seating arrangements are one of the crucial elements when planning a wedding or any kind of event. This is because the arrangement lies in how you want your guests to interact. Do you want them to come together and share their stories, or open grounds for discussion? Based on how diverse your group of audience is, the solution is likely to present itself.

Think about the Food

Most wedding planners tend to experience struggle at this point because catering to food items at a culturally diverse event is like a minefield of cultural exchanges. And you have to be careful as to what items you present. 

One way of figuring out is through some research! Find out as much as you possibly can about the norms of those attending the event and see whether you can cater to them. 

By the way, we loved arranging this for our Persian-Indian dynamic duo!

That’s a Wrap! 

Now that you know some of the wedding tips and tricks to include more diversity, hopefully, you will be able to stitch some of these woven pieces together and plan a wedding that will make not only your clients happy, but bring different cultures together closer as a community.
