Table assignments and dietary notes live in a spreadsheet that breaks every time a guest swaps seats.
Use case
Nonprofit galas, run from one dashboard.
Run the event site, tables, seats, and sponsor packages, applications from sponsors and table captains, booth assignments, and event-day check-in for galas, benefit dinners, and award nights from one connected dashboard.
Who it's for
Galas, benefit dinners, and award nights.
Instead of sending attendees, vendors, sponsors, and staff through separate tools, every workflow stays attached to the same event record - so nothing falls through the cracks between your form tool, your ticket link, and your spreadsheet.
- Publish a branded event site
- Sell tables, seats, and sponsor packages
- Collect applications from sponsors and table captains
- Assign booths on the floor-plan map
- Run QR check-in at the door
The old way
What usually goes wrong.
Sponsors and table captains apply in one tool while payments happen in another.
Booth assignments get redrawn in a spreadsheet nobody else can see.
Event-day staff work from printed lists that were stale before doors opened.

FAQ
Common questions.
Can sponsors and table captains apply and pay online?
Yes. Sponsors and table captains fill out a structured application with your custom questions, and once approved they can pay booth or table fees through Stripe checkout - or you can record manual payments like cash and checks.
Does VendlyNest sell tables, seats, and sponsor packages too?
Yes - tickets, booths, sponsor packages, and add-ons all live in one commerce layer with capacity limits, sold-out protection, receipts, and QR passes.
Do we need a separate website builder?
No. Every event gets a multi-page microsite with themes, drag-and-drop content blocks, vendor and guest directories, and optional custom domains.
