Since many couples had to postpone their weddings for the 2020 season due to the pandemic, this season the celebration is on and it’s the largest boom to date. This is causing venues to fill up quickly and available staff is scarce. To top it off, restaurants, bars and hotels are all experiencing a labor shortage.

Throughout the last year, the events industry has completely changed from how we knew it. In-person events are happening on a much smaller scale, travel has been restricted and venues closed down, limiting the number of corporate events. Over a year into the pandemic, we are finally starting to see some positive changes happening.

Katherine Frost is the founder and CEO of ORO, an all-in-one planning software designed to help event planners efficiently manage their events. She began her career in sales for a destination management company and later ventured into the wedding industry, where she had her own company. Through her own experience and conversations she had with other planners, she realized the need for a platform that would help with the organization and streamlining aspect of event planning. From there, she created ORO.

For the math gurus out there, percentages is an easy way to break down the budget into manageable bites.

I never thought of myself as a risk taker until I saw this question. I was 27 when I decided to start my first company, a luxury event planning company. I started working for a Destination Management Company or DMC, when I was 24 and wanted to shake up how local corporate and nonprofits were planning their events.
