My searches

Save the vendor searches you run often so you can pick up right where you left off.

  1. Open My searches from the sidebar.
  2. The Current tab holds searches that are still open or engaged; Past holds filled, expired, and cancelled ones.
  3. Each card shows the event type, date, location, how many vendor categories you asked for, and where the search stands.
  4. Click a search to reopen it and review your matches.
  5. Click "New search" to start another one.

Saved vendors

Every vendor you bookmark lands here, ready to compare when you plan an event.

  1. Open Saved vendors from the sidebar.
  2. Search by name, or sort by most recently saved.
  3. Each card shows the vendor’s services and whether you have already inquired with them.
  4. Use the "..." menu on a card to view the profile, start an inquiry, copy a share link, or unsave.
  5. To add one, tap the heart on any vendor card or profile in Find vendors.

Find vendors

Search vendors by service, location, price.

  1. Open Find vendors from the sidebar.
  2. Describe your event in the box at the top and we fill the form in for you, or skip it and fill it in yourself.
  3. Choose how you want to search: "I’ll do the looking" gives you a ranked list to browse, or post the job and matching vendors come to you.
  4. Set the event type, the vendor categories you need, the date, and the location. Headcount, style tags, and a budget per category are optional but sharpen the match.
  5. Click "Find vendors" to see your matches, or "Post job and notify vendors" to broadcast the request.
  6. The search is saved, so you can reopen it later from My searches.

Set a budget per vendor category

Give each vendor category its own budget range instead of one number covering the whole search.

  1. Start a vendor search and pick your vendor categories first. The budget fields only appear once something is selected, one range per category.
  2. Enter a minimum, a maximum, or both for a category. A photographer and a decorator rarely share a range, which is why they are asked for separately.
  3. Leave a category blank to say you are flexible. A blank range applies no budget filter for that category rather than defaulting to zero.
  4. The ranges are saved with the search, so vendors matched for one category are never filtered against another category’s budget.
