A first in the event sector with an 'online booking tool' from eventplanner.net

We book hotels, restaurants, flights, and more quickly and easily online. Booking multiple event suppliers through a single platform wasn't possible yet. The events industry proved too complex. Until now. Because the innovative eventplanner.co.uk booking engine is radically changing that.


"All major event industry providers are listed in the eventplanner.co.uk search engine. Thanks to the launch of our review system for event suppliers and venues, we've evolved in recent years from a portal site to a TripAdvisor or Booking.com for events. The only thing missing was the ability to book your caterer, DJ, event venue, etc. directly online," explains Managing Director Kevin Van der Straeten.


Booking an event supplier is a lot more complex than booking a hotel room. Yet, eventplanner.co.uk has succeeded in developing technology that makes it possible. Imagine you want to book a DJ using our booking engine. This tool takes into account their availability, travel times, set-up and take-down times, the right music system, the number of guests, the available packages, and so on in real time. As a visitor, you can request a quote in just a few clicks, see availability, and book immediately. On the front end, it looks very simple, but under the hood, there's some very clever and complex technology.


Organizing events is a creative process. So hiring an event agency at the click of a button isn't exactly possible. But booking simple event components with just a few mouse clicks, such as a meeting room, DJ, cocktail caterer, band, and so on, is now possible.



Try it out yourself now!

If you'd like to try out the test version of our booking engine yourself, you can get started with our " test company." Click on "check availability" to test and create bookings. This is a fictitious test account, so the bookings aren't real. Please use your real login details and email address so you can test the entire flow. If you encounter any problems or see opportunities to make the tool even more user-friendly, please let us know!


Of course, it can also be more "real" than with a test company. Cocktail caterer Peter Grunewald of Grunewald.bar is the first event company to actually use the booking module. You can now check his schedule and prices online and book him immediately, both through eventplanner.co.uk and his own website. He's also integrated the module into his site.



Benefits for organizers

It goes without saying that this booking engine offers new possibilities for organizers. With just a few clicks, you can immediately see the availability and quote from an event company on your screen. You can easily compare and book immediately. You save the time and energy you would otherwise spend requesting quotes from everywhere. Yet, the personal touch is maintained. After booking, the event company will still contact you to discuss the arrangements so that everything runs smoothly at your event.



Benefits for event companies

As an event company, you can count on several benefits. You'll spend less time on administration, creating quotes, and checking availability. You'll make it easier for your clients to book, which will increase your revenue. You can even integrate the module into your own website so your direct site visitors can also use this innovative tool to book you.



Become an event supplier BETA tester

We're looking for event companies and venues with a simple business model who want to contribute to the further development of the software. As a tester, you'll be the first to use the booking engine. We're considering event venues renting out a single space, DJs, bands, small caterers, and more. Later, we'll expand the test to event companies with more complex offerings. To apply as a tester, you must already have a comprehensive company profile on our website and be willing to dedicate time to an intake interview and feedback rounds. We'll cover the setup fee (normally €250) during the BETA phase; the fee for using the booking engine is free for companies with a premium company page. Want to help shape the future of our industry? Contact us and apply now.
