Eventful is a New Zealand directory of event suppliers — the people you hire to make an event happen. It covers venues, catering, entertainment, hire, styling, production and more, across every region of New Zealand.

Anyone organising an event. That includes couples planning a wedding, businesses running conferences, product launches and staff functions, and people organising milestone celebrations, fundraisers and community events.

How is it different from an events calendar?

Eventful lists suppliers, not events. It is not a what's-on guide. If you are looking for a caterer, a marquee, a band or a photographer, this is the directory for that.

Eventful is in development. There are no listings on the site yet. Suppliers already listed with MyWeddingGuide will be contacted first.

How do suppliers get listed?

Early-access listings are open to New Zealand event suppliers now. Email sales@myweddingguide.co.nz or call 09 282 4781 to secure a founding listing before launch.

Eventful — New Zealand event suppliers, for every kind of event

What this is

A directory of suppliers, not a calendar of events

If you are organising something — a wedding, a conference, a product launch, a fiftieth — Eventful is where you will find the people you need to hire, in your region, with the detail you need to shortlist them properly.

Most event suppliers work across every kind of occasion. The caterer who does a wedding on Saturday does a company function on Monday. The AV crew rigging a conference rigs a gala dinner the following week. Eventful brings them together in one directory instead of splitting them across separate worlds.

For suppliers

Get in early

Founding listings are open now, before launch. Early suppliers go live on day one, get first pick of their category and region, and are the ones couples and event organisers see first.

If you supply services to events anywhere in New Zealand — venue, catering, entertainment, hire, styling, production, anything on the list above — we would like to hear from you.
