Populate a form dropdown element from a collection

I am trying to populate a form drop down element from information added by a user into another data collection.

The code I have is as follows -

import wixData from 'wix-data';

$w.onReady(()=>{
 wixData.query('EventsDatabase')
 .find()
 .then(res => {
 let options = [{"value": '','label': 'eventName'}];
 options.push(...res.items.map(eventname => {
 return{'value':eventname.title,'label': eventname.title};
 }));
 $w("#dropdown1").options = options;
 })
});

The data collection = EventsDatabase
The field from the data collection to populate the drop down = eventName
The dropdown element in the form that I want to populate = #dropdown1

I am getting the above message and the dropdown is only showing the field title and not the dropdown options.
