You don’t have to do the research to believe that sensory experiences tend to foster more vivid memories. Whether it’s a song associated with a time in your past or the smell of a loved one’s perfume, sensory experiences often have a longer-lasting impact on memories (London & Partners, 2015). When it comes to capturing the attention of your guests, creating an event experience that appeals to multiple senses can be a great way to do so.
