Bringing a professional as early as possible to the planning phase is always better. Having someone to work with you from the start can increase the chances of everything going smoothly. After all, your hired Tasker will be focused on ensuring that the best suppliers are present and that everything goes according to plan moving forward.

It may be cliché, but a no-fail way of saving money is to work with an expert. A professional has worked with numerous suppliers and can connect you to people worth your buck. Don’t pour money down the drain by accidentally booking unsavoury food or lacklustre performances. Let a reliable Tasker handle it for you.

Numerous people do the DIY route. Fair warning, though. Organising an event requires you to have ample time, loads of patience, excellent communication skills, a quick mind, and never-ending creativity. It could be something fun for you to try, but if you don’t have the heart for it, you may be better off hiring someone to get the job done for you instead.

You can hire one no matter how intimate or simple an event is. It might help you decide if you know the number of guests and other details. Corporate gatherings like press launches, conferences, and awards nights need a team of event coordinators. In addition, having one plan for a birthday dinner with your closest friends may help you enjoy the night better.

Events with more attendees or suppliers will need a team, while just one planner can handle smaller parties. Since this can vary from one event to another, it’s best to include these details when you put up a task. Taskers who send you an offer can inform you if one person will be working on it or have a team handle all your requirements.

There are plenty of Taskers on our platform ready to make any occasion special. You can book a show director, entertainers, a cleaning crew, and even ushers! It’s also possible to send a surprise gift or even order a bouquet for the celebrant. Airtasker can connect you to nearby professionals dedicated to making your day extraordinary.

Event management involves overseeing all aspects of an event, including planning, organizing, and executing, often encompassing budgeting and marketing. Event coordination focuses on the logistical details during the event, such as scheduling, vendor management, and ensuring smooth operations on-site. Management is comprehensive, while coordination focuses on execution specifics.

Top Event Planning related questions

An event planner will plan and organise all aspects of your event, including: schedules, styling, entertainment, lighting, catering, seating, vendors, and the venue. They’ll discuss your needs and do as much as possible to minimise your stress so you can enjoy your function. 

Although there is some overlap between the two roles, event planners usually focus on pre-party tasks such as theming, venue, catering, invitations, and hiring. An event manager will make sure the event runs smoothly by overseeing the event and making sure any issues are fixed quickly.

You can hire an event planner for any special occasion, such as: weddings, corporate functions, or milestone birthday parties. In fact, they can help with any event that needs to be planned in advance.

Years of experience means your event planner will know what works and what doesn’t -  your event isn’t the time to consider trial and error. And their experience can save you significant time and money. You only need to speak with one person (the planner!) and they’ll coordinate with all vendors and suppliers. With everything taken care of, you can also enjoy yourself at your party instead of worrying about the little details.

Firstly, an event planner will meet with you to talk about your event. They will find out the look and feel you’d like and start designing your ideal party. Once you’ve agreed on themes and ideas, they’ll source vendors and suppliers to bring your vision to life. They’ll negotiate pricing so you get the best deal, plus ensure vendors know what’s expected to make the event a success. They can even book security for those bigger parties to ensure a safe environment for all partygoers.

You can expect to pay an average of $82 -$160 when you book your event planner through Airtasker. The cost of event planning may vary depending on the location, type, and size of your party, plus how much help you need. Prices are usually higher for wedding or corporate events, and you can expect to pay more for event management and any other add-ons.

What do event services include?

The right event coordinator can help take the stress out of planning, execution, and even documentation. However, hiring the wrong one will cost you time, money, and peace of mind. This isn’t just about skill or work ethic. There are plenty of different event organisers. While there is a handful who can work on every type of event, most professionals have a specific niche that they have mastered. Here are some kinds of events that Taskers can help you with:

Live shows

While guests are wowed by dazzling lights, flashy performances, and a dance-worthy playlist, there’s a lot of magic happening in the background to make sure that the equipment is inside the venue at the correct time for setup, all expenses are accounted for, and everyone in the artistic team and cast gets a bouquet of flowers on opening night.

With live shows, the terms event organiser and production manager may be used interchangeably, but they can have different tasks. For example, an event organiser can be in charge of the whole activity, including finances and paperwork, while a production manager ensures that performances are never out of cue.

Corporate events

A corporate event coordinator has a knack for bringing some pizazz to an otherwise dull company activity! From holiday parties for employees to high-stake product launches with investors, your Tasker can make sure that guests will be happy. You don’t have to worry about finding a caterer who can prepare delicious food for the whole company or bake cupcakes with your brand logo on them! Your event organiser can even help prepare the receipts for budget liquidation and accounting.

Trade shows and bazaars

Sale events can be stressful, but event and trade show coordinators can efficiently manage them. They can assign booths to your exhibitors without forgetting anyone! You’d be surprised at how much headache that can give you if it happens. Experienced events assistants can also accurately estimate how many hours and staff are needed for ingress and egress. Some Taskers can help you with booking accommodation for VIP guests, too!

Weddings and parties

Hiring a communications and events coordinator is not just for business meetings. Weddings, birthdays, and all of your life milestones should be celebrated without additional stress on you! Some Taskers specialise in family-oriented gatherings. They can ensure that aunts and uncles who get along well are at one table when arranging seating for reception or that rings are not misplaced before the ceremony.

In the digital age, a lot of us only see the picture-perfect result after, but it takes a lot of energy and skill to keep guests in any event happy throughout. Hire a professional via Airtasker, and let yourself freely enjoy the celebration.

Jordan was an absolute lifesaver at my 70’s party event! From start to finish, he was professional, efficient, and such a joy to work with. He jumped right in with a positive attitude and took care of everything with care and attention to detail. He was thorough, organized, and went above and beyond to make sure the space was left spotless. I highly recommend Jordan to anyone needing extra hands for an event—you’ll be glad you did!
