Interesting idea.

What are the existing apps like for this? Why are they lacking? What's your insight?

Would this be a paid app or ad supported?

On a technical note, do you have a way to get the data on the venues? Especially cost? If you do that sounds interesting. You might start with a simpler service: Search for event venues within a certain budget.

Thanks for the response. Existing apps make you find services such as venue by yourself. Some of them allow you to send invites but most are not comprehensive. I think a platform where you can find and connect to services would take a lot of the stress out of event planning. It would be probably be a free app if you're an individual creating only a few events a year. It could charge event planning companies, and it could charge service providers such as venues to be promoted on search results. Data I am getting from the Google Places Javascript API, which I believe is free unless I charge people to use my service. Google API can be annoying at times, and I may check out Locu's API. Thanks for the idea. It fills a niche but it might be a little too simple. Worth considering though
