Curious about how to get started or want more information on how our venue directory works (including all of its benefits)? Here’s a crash course.
What is a venue directory?
A venue directory (sometimes referred to as an event directory, venue marketplace, or a venue listing site) is an online collection of spaces and properties that host events. Every venue directory is a bit different—some may solely focus on booking a conference room for a business event, for instance, while others may only concentrate on hotels—but the gist is that they can help you narrow down the ideal space for your event amid a sea of options.
Several event venue directories also include helpful filters and toggles that help consumers whittle down spaces by selecting the features that they’re looking for, from location to venue type. Users may also be able to browse the top spots in each city, in addition to seeing examples of real-life events that have taken place at the property.
In addition to sourcing venues, Carats & Cake’s venue directory also allows our consumers to browse top wedding and event vendors from all over the world (think planners, caterers, florists, photographers, and more), making for a holistic, streamlined venue solution for both consumers and event professionals. All of this leads couples and planners to find the ideal space to say “I do” with our wedding venue directory.
