Are you a wedding planner or event coordinator?

Events agency of 2-10 people

The client's constant changes (menu, guests, décor) leave the quote out of date every week.

The bride changed the menu three times and now I don't even know which quote is the current one.

From wasting time to closing more sales

Before

Kept an Excel file with tabs for each supplier and sent a summary PDF that went out of date with every change.

After

Creates a unified quote with categories, updates lines when there are changes, and sends the updated version in one click.

Result: Every change is documented in a new version, the client always sees the current quote, and there's no confusion about what was agreed.

Frequently asked questions about events quotes

Can I organise the quote by categories (catering, décor, AV)?

Yes, you can create sections for each event category. The client sees the breakdown by area and the overall event total.

How do I handle menu changes or guest-count changes?

You duplicate the quote, adjust the affected lines and send a new version. The history keeps all previous versions.

Can I calculate the per-person cost of the event?

Yes, you can use the quantity to state the number of people on lines like catering, drinks or gifts, and the system calculates the total.

Guide to quoting in events

Quoting an event means coordinating multiple suppliers and services into a single coherent document: catering, AV, décor, photography, entertainment, front-of-house staff and logistics. The challenge is to present everything clearly so the client can approve, change or drop services without losing sight of the event's total cost.

Each type of event — wedding, conference, product launch, gala dinner — has specific line items. For weddings, for example, it's key to break down the price per head, separating the reception drinks, the banquet, the open bar and the cake. For corporate events, the client needs to see the cost of the venue, the technical production, the catering and the signage as independent items they can scale according to the number of attendees.

DealForge lets you organise the quote by service category, create versions for different options (menu A vs. menu B, 100 vs. 200 guests) and send everything in a professional document the client approves with electronic signature. Each change generates a new version, keeping the full history of what was agreed.
