Guide

How to use an event planner binder

Event planning for clients means many briefs, budgets, vendors and run sheets at once. An event planner binder keeps each event's details together and your own business organised around them.
  1. Take a full brief

    The client event brief records client, date, venue, guests, budget, goals and must-haves.

  2. Track client payments

    Deposits, instalments and balances with due dates and paid status.

  3. Plan the event

    Use the event overview, countdown, budget, guests, menu, shopping and decor pages.

  4. Write the run sheet

    Time, what's happening, who's responsible and which vendor, for every event.

  5. Run the business

    Project planners, meeting notes, goals and monthly income and expenses.

What to include in an event planner binder

An event planning organizer should be as useful on the day as in the planning. This one includes:

Calendar

Weekly and monthly pages

Digital vs printable event planner binder

A digital event planner binder on a tablet keeps every event in one place at site visits and on the day.

Printed run sheets on a clipboard are still the easiest thing to hand to staff and vendors.

An example week in an event planner binder

One goal, followed through a single week. The milestone and weekly actions are the kind of lines the AI goal step writes onto your month and week pages; the daily notes are what you add by hand.

Questions

Event planner binder questions

How is it different from the party planner?

The party planner is for hosting your own party. The event planner binder is for running events for clients: briefs, payments, vendors and run sheets for many events.

Does it have a Google Sheets version?

No. It's a PDF planner for tablets or print. Many planners keep a spreadsheet for totals and use the binder on event days.

Is there a free event planner binder?

You can build this event planner binder and flip through every page in your browser for free, with a watermark. The tabs and links work in the preview, so you can check the layout before you pay. The clean PDF is $12 once, or included in Pro at $49 a year for unlimited planners. There is no free download of the full planner.

Does it work with GoodNotes, Notability, Samsung Notes and e-ink tablets?

Yes. Download the iPad size for GoodNotes, Notability, Noteshelf, Xodo, Collanote or ZoomNotes; the Android size for Samsung Notes, Penly, Flexcil or Xodo; or the E-ink size for reMarkable, Kindle Scribe, Boox and Supernote. The links work in any app that follows PDF links, usually in read mode rather than pen mode. Every size is included in the price.

Can I print the event planner binder?

Yes. Choose A5, A4, US Letter or Half Letter in the builder for a printable PDF with a wider inner margin for hole punching. Printable and digital sizes come with the same purchase, so you can use the event planner binder on a tablet and print the pages you want on paper.

Is the event planner binder dated or undated?

Dated by default, starting in January 2027. You can pick any start month and year (including this month), a length from 3 months to 5 years, and Monday or Sunday weeks. Or switch to undated and write the dates in yourself, so a skipped week isn't wasted.

Does the AI fill in the event planner binder for me?

Only the goal parts, and only if you want it to. Type up to six goals and the AI writes a milestone for each month and a short action for each week onto your month and week pages, plus a motto for each month. You can edit every line before you download. Everything else, from the calendar pages to the trackers, is yours to fill in by hand. You can try it 3 times a day without an account.

How many pages is the event planner binder?

With the default settings it comes to about 191 pages. That includes 12 month pages, 53 weekly pages, the Event Clients, Party & Events, Business and Projects & Meetings pages and 20 notes pages. Switching off sections makes it shorter, and the builder shows the total as you change things.

Make it yours in about a minute.

Set your dates, device and goals, flip through the preview free, and pay only when it's right.
