The Banquet Planning Checklist gives your chapter one shared, phase-by-phase system to assign tasks, track progress, and keep every detail on schedule from 90 days out to banquet night.
Sound familiar?
Most chapters run their banquet the same way every year — one person holding everything in their head. When that person is overwhelmed, details get missed. Vendors get forgotten. Tasks fall through the cracks. And nobody finds out until the night of.
Your banquet chair knows every vendor, every deadline, every task. But that's not a system — it's a liability. When they're unavailable, everything stalls.
Without a phase-by-phase structure, tasks that should happen months out get started too late, and nobody is fully sure who owns what until the pressure is already on.
The venue forgot your setup request. The auctioneer didn't get the item list. The raffle tickets weren't printed. None of these happen with a checklist — they all happen without one.
Introducing
A shared system for your whole team — so nothing gets dropped, nothing gets forgotten, and everyone knows exactly what they own.
See it in action
This is what your team gets on day one — 90+ tasks organized, assigned, and tracked from first planning session to post-event wrap-up.
What You Get
Everything your planning committee needs to stay aligned from first meeting to post-event wrap-up — in one shared tool.
5 phases from 90+ days out to post-event wrap-up. Every critical task organized in the right order so nothing falls through the cracks.
Assign every checklist item to a specific board member. Everyone knows exactly what they own — no more assuming someone else handled it.
Visual progress bars for each phase and the overall event. See exactly where you stand at a glance — no status meeting required.
Enter your banquet date once and the tool displays a live countdown everywhere — so your team always knows exactly how much runway they have.
What changes
Not hope. Not a text thread. A documented, assigned, tracked plan your whole team can see.
Two ways to access
The Banquet Planning Checklist is included in the Banquet Bundle with the Banquet Command Center, or inside Member and larger Chapter Lodge plans.
Choose the Banquet Bundle if this year’s event is your only focus. Choose Member if you also want the rest of the Lodge year-round.
Best if your main goal is to run one strong banquet without committing to a full membership.
Best if you want banquet tools plus grants, sponsors, social media, and every new Kit that gets released.
