With the pandemic outbreak, things have been moving fast and we’re here to help you keep up. While event planners are agile, sometimes it’s hard to come up with new ways to plan in a world we’re not so used to yet. We’ve been working hard to listen to you, and to adapt to our everchanging new reality.

We ultimately believe human connection is unbeatable but we’re all about the here and now. We’ve spent the past few months bettering our product (and ourselves — lots of at-home workouts and bread baking).

At the beginning of the pandemic outbreak, we took the time to connect with some of our clients and potential clients. While conversations flowed, our “discovery program” formed naturally. Our discovery program is made up of planners from top companies who test our new features and give us feedback on how we can make it even better. Through 100s of discovery calls, we realized planners needed an easy tool to connect their teams and event attendees, without putting anybody at risk. So, we came up with this.

Introducing: the vendor marketplace, a fast way to discover all of the vendors you need to start planning.

Better selection for a better experience. Save time researching and filter through the highest-rated vendors across North America.

Just about everything you can imagine. We have all kinds of vendors ranging from caterers (food and beverage), transportation, A/V, virtual suppliers, and experiences (virtual and in-person).

Virtual vibes. Connect your guests in new ways from the comfort of their own homes. We handpicked all of our experiential vendors to meet the highest quality standards in the industry: ours.

Find unique experiences like:

Guest speakers: Not to brag but we’ve got some of the coolest guest speakers ready to wow your attendees. Book top talent like Steve Wozniak, Sharon Wood, and Richard Branson in a few clicks.

Food & beverage experiences: Spice up your next virtual event with a smorgasbord of market-fresh ingredients and delicious cocktails to wash it down. Whether you want to make pasta from scratch or mix up the perfect Tom Collins, we’ve got lots of chefs and mixologists waiting to wow your team.

Musicians: Add music to any type of event to get the mood just right. Choose from DJs, Jazz trios, R&B stars, and more.

All about convenience. Our marketplace is designed to make it as easy as possible to find and book the suppliers you’ve been dreaming of. Make your search as specific as possible to filter out anything that doesn’t work for you and only showcase ones that will.

Virtual? Hybrid? In-person? We’ve got you covered. Use filters to instantly find the suppliers that work for your event type. We have vendors for every kind of event.

Our all-new vendor marketplace with everything you need to get your events started. It’s designed to be an efficient solution that allows you to choose the suppliers that work best for your events (whether they’re in-person, hybrid, or virtual). Pick one, pick two or three. We’re here to help you create whatever you had in mind for your next event — whether it’s a holiday party, team building event, or conference.
