Booking the people who make an event happen is usually done across a dozen browser tabs, three group chats and a spreadsheet nobody trusts. Eventinary puts the search next to the event itself: find a vendor by city and trade, ask them about your date, and see who has confirmed — on the same page as your guest list and your run-up checklist.
Most vendor searches start from where the host lives, which is the wrong centre for about a third of events. A wedding held in the bride’s home town, a company party two cities from the office, a christening at the grandparents’ church — in all three the useful question is who works near the venue, not near you.
So the search takes a city rather than your location. It is seeded from the event’s own location and can be typed over, which costs nothing when the two are the same and saves the whole search when they are not.
An enquiry is a question, not a claim. It reaches the vendor with your date and your event, and it leaves their calendar exactly as it was. That matters in both directions: you can approach several vendors for the same slot without committing, and a vendor cannot have their diary frozen by people who are still deciding.
The date is only held when the vendor accepts. At that moment it comes off their availability, their contact details are released to you, and the booking shows as confirmed on your event. If they are asked about the same day by someone else afterwards, the answer is already no.
Vendors choose one primary type when they list, which is what makes a search narrow enough to be useful. Browsing "everyone in Bengaluru" is rarely what you want; browsing florists in Bengaluru is.
Listing is free and takes one form: your business name, what you do, and the city you work in. You are not listed until you say so, so a half-finished profile is never what a host finds.
Your calendar stores only the days you are not available, which means an open diary needs no upkeep at all. Block a holiday when you take one; everything else is assumed free until a booking you accept takes a date out.
Search by the city your event is in and, optionally, by the type of business you need — a venue, a caterer, a photographer. Results are the vendors listed as working in that city, and you can ask any of them about your date without committing to anything.
No. An enquiry leaves their calendar untouched, so you can ask several vendors about the same day. The date is only held when a vendor accepts, and at that point it comes off their availability and their contact details are shared with you.
Fourteen business types: event venues, audio visual equipment rental, caterers, DJs, entertainers, event planners, event staffing, florists, live music, officiants, party equipment rental, photographers, transportation providers and videographers.
Yes. Cancelling releases the date back onto the vendor’s calendar and tells them it is off. The booking stays on your event as a record rather than disappearing, because the vendor turned other work down for that day.
Yes. Creating a vendor profile is free, and you choose when it goes live — a new profile is not listed until you turn it on, so hosts never find something half-written.
No. The same sign-in works for both. If you also plan your own events, one account does both jobs — being a vendor is simply having a vendor profile on the account you already have.
