Event Planner

About

Event Planners work with clients to put together every component of a successful live event - whether a small gathering or a stadium show. Some of their work includes selecting venues, determining costs, and arranging event services from vendors. While there is a lot of overlap with event coordinators, planners typically focus on a client's vision, needs, and budget; while event coordinators are responsible for ensuring the details are executed, especially on site at the event itself.
