Clients turn to event planners because they lack the time, resources, or know-how to organize events themselves. Whether it's a busy executive planning her mother’s 70th birthday or a community group unsure how to host a craft fair, your role is to take the pressure off. As the planner, you manage the details and logistics—allowing your clients to enjoy the event without the stress. Your responsibilities may include:
- Developing and maintaining the event budget
- Securing a venue
- Coordinating with vendors
- Managing entertainment, décor, and catering
- Arranging travel and accommodations
- Supervising event setup and cleanup
