a second source of venue inquiries

PrivateEvents.co is Sway's consumer booking service. Planners tell us the event, the date, the headcount, the budget, and the kind of evening they want. Our team reads each request, matches it to the right venue, and routes the ones that fit into the same system that already handles your advertising.

what it is

a consumer booking path, run by the same team

PrivateEvents.co starts with the event. The planner shares the brief, and our team reviews fit, availability, budget, and event type before moving the right inquiry to your venue.

Event interest rarely arrives neatly. The host wants a good room, a clear price, and a person who can guide the next step. PrivateEvents.co gives them that, and it gives your venue a second source of event inquiries.

each request comes with details you can use

You get a clear brief. The planner feels guided. Your team picks up a warmer inquiry.

questions

Fit decides it. Each request goes to the venue that makes sense for the event, budget, guest count, and tone.

Does this replace my current marketing?

Keep every channel you run. PrivateEvents.co adds one more route into the same Sway-led booking process.

Who replies to the host?

The Sway team behind your venue handles the inquiry in your venue's name, to the same standard as your advertising.
