After a rise in events in 2022, vendors continue to connect with new and past clients, working to get their leads and bookings back to pre-pandemic levels. Weddings and other events hit a historic high last year, and celebrations are expected to continue to trend upward in 2023.

In our new report, we provide detailed findings from our survey of over 800 event vendors on the actions they're taking to grow their business this year. You will learn if they've connected with new clients, where they plan to advertise their business, how they will utilize reviews, and more!
