Vendor research is the worst part of planning a reunion

You sit down on a Saturday morning, open Google, type "BBQ catering Asheville," and get 4 million results. You open the first ten. Three are wedding-only. Two have terrible photos. One is "currently not booking." Two have no prices listed. The other two require you to fill out a contact form and wait three business days.

Repeat for venue. Repeat for photographer. Repeat for tents and rentals. You haven't even started budgeting yet and you've burned a whole weekend.

Rosi short-circuits the whole process. She knows your reunion size, your region, your budget, your date - and she returns 3–5 strong candidates per category with pricing already estimated. You go from "ugh, I need a caterer" to "here are three good options" in 90 seconds.

🤖

AI-vetted shortlists

Rosi filters by your reunion's size, region, budget, and date. She rejects vendors with bad reviews or wrong scale - you get 3–5 strong matches instead of 50 random results.

💲

Pricing estimates included

Each suggestion comes with a typical price range for your headcount and region. Use it for budgeting and shortlisting - confirm the real quote with the vendor.

📌

Save & compare

Shortlist multiple vendors per category. Compare side by side: price, capacity, distance, reviews, what's included. Decide with everything in one view.

One-click 'booked' status

Mark a vendor as booked and Reunly auto-adds them as a line item in your budget with the agreed price and a link to the contract. No double-entry.

📍

Geographic match

Rosi knows where your reunion is. She finds vendors within a sensible driving distance - and notes travel fees if a vendor needs to come from farther.

How it works

1

Tell Rosi the basics

Reunion size, city or region, date, total budget, what category you need. (Rosi remembers it from your reunion plan, so usually one sentence is enough: 'find me a caterer.')

2

Get a vetted shortlist

3–5 strong candidates per category, each with pricing estimate, distance from venue, reviews, and a note on why Rosi picked them. No 4-million-result Google dumps.

3

Save, book, auto-budget

Save favorites to your shortlist. When you book one, mark it 'booked' and Reunly auto-adds it as a line item in your budget. No double-entry, ever.

The killer feature

Mark as booked → auto-added to budget

Booking a caterer used to mean: sign the contract, then remember to update your spreadsheet, then forget, then panic three months later when the numbers don't match. With Reunly, "Mark as Booked" on a vendor instantly creates a budget line item with the agreed price, the vendor's contact info, and a place to track deposit and balance due. One click. No double-entry. No forgotten line items.

The 8 vendor categories Rosi covers

Catering. BBQ, taco bars, family-style buffets, hot lunches, dessert tables. Rosi filters out wedding-only caterers and surfaces ones that handle 30–200 people comfortably with allergy options.

Venues. State park pavilions, community centers, lakefront shelters, banquet halls, family farms. Rosi checks capacity, restrooms, parking, and indoor backup for weather.

Photography. Specifically group-portrait photographers - not just wedding shooters. Drone options, online galleries, same-day previews when available.

Music / DJ. DJs for older crowds (a Frank Sinatra deep cut is a feature, not a bug), live bluegrass bands, kids' entertainment, sound system rentals if you're running it yourself.

Rentals. Tables, chairs, linens, place settings, beverage tubs, generators. Rosi sizes the order to your headcount so you don't over- or under-order.

Tents & shade. Pop-up canopies, large frame tents, sail shades, sidewalls for wind, heating/cooling for shoulder seasons.

Florists & decor. Centerpieces, welcome arrangements, signage, balloon arches if that's your vibe.

Transportation. Shuttle buses from hotels to venue, charter buses for day trips, golf carts for spread-out venues, accessible transport for elderly relatives.

Vendor Finder FAQ

How does Reunly's AI vendor finder work?

Tell Rosi your reunion size, location, budget, and what you need (caterer, photographer, venue, etc.) and she returns a vetted shortlist with pricing estimates, contact info, and notes on why each one fits. Behind the scenes Rosi pulls from public business data, reviews, and pricing benchmarks - then filters to vendors that match your scale, region, and budget band.

What kinds of vendors can Rosi help me find?

Eight categories: catering, venue, photography, music/DJ, rentals (tables, chairs, linens), tents and shade structures, florists and decor, and transportation. If your reunion needs something niche - a bouncy castle, a face painter, a sound engineer - just ask Rosi in chat and she'll search for it.

Are the vendor prices accurate?

Rosi returns pricing estimates - typical ranges based on your headcount, region, and the category. Real quotes come from the vendor directly, so use Rosi's numbers for budgeting and shortlisting, then confirm with the actual vendor before booking. She's tuned to be conservative so you don't get surprised.

Can I save and compare vendors?

Yes. Save any vendor to your shortlist for that category. Compare them side by side: pricing, capacity, distance from venue, reviews, what's included. When you decide on one, mark it as 'booked' and Reunly auto-adds it as a line item in your budget - no double-entry, no forgetting to log it.

Does Reunly take a commission from vendors?

No. Reunly never takes a commission, kickback, or referral fee from any vendor. Rosi's suggestions are based on fit for your reunion - not on who's paying us. You pay the vendor directly at their normal rate.

What if Rosi doesn't find a good fit?

Ask her to widen the search radius, adjust the budget band, or relax a constraint. If she still doesn't find a fit (rural area, niche category, holiday weekend), she'll tell you honestly and suggest alternatives - maybe a self-catered potluck instead of a caterer, or a community center instead of a private venue.
