Partnership + Sponsorship
Partner with Event Teams Awards
Event Teams Awards is a national recognition platform for emerging event and wedding professionals. We welcome aligned businesses and organizations that want to support recognition, opportunity, and growth across the industry.
What Event Teams Awards is
Event Teams Awards is a national recognition platform that honors emerging event and wedding professionals — planners, designers, and event teams — alongside the photographers, videographers, caterers and chefs, venues, crew, and selected supporting vendors who make exceptional work possible.
The platform exists for the people and businesses putting in the work: rising professionals building their craft, teams growing together, and industry businesses investing in the next generation. Its focus is recognition, visibility, opportunity, mentorship, connection, community, professional growth, and legacy within the event industry.
Event Teams Awards is brought to life by The Eventz Team, its parent brand.

Shared Values
Partnership aligned with our values
Partnerships are a fit when they align with what the platform stands for: Elevation, Opportunity, Recognition, Community, and Legacy. If your organization shares these values, we would like to hear from you.
What it means to partner with us
Partnering with Event Teams Awards means joining a national recognition platform and standing behind its mission — supporting emerging professionals as they are seen, celebrated, and connected across the United States.
It is a relationship, not a transaction. Partners support the platform's work in recognition, visibility, opportunity, mentorship, connection, community, and professional growth — and in return become part of the platform's story and its place in the industry.
Because the 2026 event is private and invitation-only, partnership is about supporting the platform and its mission — not about general-public admission to the event.
Why partnerships matter
Emerging professionals rarely reach recognition on their own. Partners help make that recognition possible — elevating the people and teams who have been putting in the work and giving the wider industry a way to invest in them.
Every partnership strengthens the platform's ability to recognize talent, open doors, and build a lasting legacy for the event and wedding industry — one professional, one team, and one business at a time.
