Planning at a hotel?
Your venue’s AV quote isn’t your only option.
In-house AV providers often pay the venue a commission, and that cost is built into your quote. Send us the in-house AV quote and we’ll send back a line-by-line comparison within 24 hours. If we can’t save you money, we’ll tell you.
- Check before you sign. Outside-AV rights and patch fees are easiest to negotiate before the venue contract is signed.
- Net savings only. Our comparison includes patch, power and rigging fees, so the number is real.
- Honest answer. If the in-house option is the better fit for a small room, we’ll say so.

FAQ
Questions planners ask
How fast will I get a quote?
Within 2 business hours of sending the date, venue and guest count. Complex productions may need a short call first, and we'll tell you that within the same window.
Are technicians included?
Yes. Every package includes delivery, setup and strike, and every package except Speak includes a technician on site. On Speak, an on-site tech is $75/hr.
How do I book my date?
A 50% deposit holds your date. Corporate clients can move to net-15 terms after their first paid event.
Can I bring outside AV into a hotel?
Many hotels allow outside AV vendors, often with a patch or service fee. The best time to check is before you sign the venue contract. Send us the contract or the in-house AV quote and we'll tell you what applies.
Can you provide a certificate of insurance (COI)?
Yes. We carry $1M/$2M general liability and can send a COI naming your venue as additional insured, usually the same day.
