Background
Event planners organize and coordinate all the details of events like conferences, weddings, festivals, and corporate parties. They handle tasks such as booking venues, arranging catering, managing budgets, coordinating with suppliers, and making sure everything runs smoothly on the day. Event planners need to be organized, creative, and good at solving problems when things don't go to plan.
