What an incredible company to work with! My name is David, and I had the pleasure of partnering with Ariana and Kylie on a large, upscale conference at the JW Marriott in Downtown Los Angeles. From start to finish, they were friendly, flexible, and consistently kept me informed of any updates or changes. The two-day event was a great success, and we captured some truly stunning photos for our client. I can't recommend this company highly enough! read more

We hired Innovate Marketing Group for the opening of our hotel, the Residence Inn Redwood City San Carlos. Amanda and her team are very detail oriented, professional, and customer focused. She brought all kinds of innovative ideas to our planning meetings, like a 360 photo booth and virtual reality glasses. Ideas for a party that I would have never thought of. Then came the day of our event. Amanda, Jacqueline, and her team planned for every little thing possible. I am an Event Specialist at the hotel and would have never thought of some of the last minute preparations that they planned for. The event was a huge success and that was hugely due to Amanda and her team. All of our guests enjoyed it and we are so thankful to Innovate Marketing Group for helping make our Grand Opening Celebration amazing! read more

See all

Innovate Marketing Group - Party & Event Planning Near Me - Pasadena, California

The entire team at IMG, led by Amanda is dynamite. We hired IMG to help us to produce AbilityFEST; a carnival inspired one-day event celebrating inclusion and looking beyond disabilities. The IMG team helped us to procure exhibitors - we had more than 40 confirmed (which was at least 10 more than we'd originally projected!) IMG team has strong task and time management tools in place, that really helped AbilityFirst stay on target with deadlines and goals. We had bi-monthly meetings and as we got a few weeks out from AbilityFEST we had weekly calls, that really helped my staff and I to stay organized all the way up until the day-of the event. Then the day-of was very stream-lined and IMG's team did a terrific job with their event logistics and each team member took on key leadership roles for the day. We will definitely hire the IMG team again, for AbilityFEST 2020. read more

As an event planner, I know how much time and energy it takes to make an event stand out and I can easily say the folks at Innovate Marketing Group go above and beyond to make their clients are happy and the guests in awe. I've attended many events and worked with Innovate Marketing Group (IMG) on some as well. Knowing from an insider perceptive on how they treat each client and event individually really makes them stand out to me. IMG truly does take care of everything and can turn a blank space into the most beautiful and flawless event. Whether the client has a vision or is starting from scratch, they can execute and deliver. They will offer themes, activation ideas and activities that someone would not normally even consider. Which is why you should always hire experts when you're planning a major event :) I think it's so important to have a close working relationship with any clients and I can tell IMG does, too. The staff is extremely friendly, responsive and reliable. I highly recommend Innovate Marketing Group to help plan your next corporate event, non-profit gala, fundraiser, holiday party, sponsorship activation or private event. You will not be disappointed! read more

I want to first start by saying Amanda is AMAZING! I would highly recommend Innovate Marketing Group's wonderful planning experience for any memorable event. My company is based in NYC but I needed to plan an inaugural business summit in Las Vegas with only 3 months for preparation. Because the event was out of state, I decided to enlist the help of a planner. After comparing several event planners' services, prices, and company cultures, we contracted Amanda without any 2nd thoughts. Throughout the planning process, she was very professional, attentive to all the details, and has been very creative with our limited budget and resources. Very early on, she created the master timeline and organized biweekly conference meetings with all the core members. Initially, we contracted her for marketing purposes, but by the end of the event, she went above and beyond and even helped us get a few new sponsors and local community partners. And this is in addition to handling all the logistical parts of the event ( caterers, flowers, AV, VIP guests services, you name it! ) I can't say enough great things about the whole experience, which would have been so much more stressful if I hadn't found Amanda and her team. And of course, we continued contracting her for the 2nd year too. We couldn't have done our events successfully without her. John Wang Asian American Business Development Center read more

From the perspective of the band, they met all our needs to do our job - umbrellas at the ready to block the moving sun, electrical outlets and extensions out and ready for us, bottled water, many other details. We recommend them unreservedly. read more

This review is well overdue, but never too late to give praise. I had an event for a non-profit at my venue back in June for roughly 450 people. I was contacted for this event by Haley, a Corporate Event Manager here, who was an absolute pleasure to work with. This was a last minute contract since the clients other venue fell through. The budget was limited so Haley reached out to work some things out with me in order for their event to still take place. Having to change gears from her original venue to mine she had a list of questions to familiarize herself with my venue. After feeling confident in representing my venue on behalf of her clients she set the clients and all the vendors up with a site visit to be better prepared for the actual event day. Once the event was here everything went smoothly because all the proper steps were coordinated perfectly beforehand by Haley. Without a great leader there is nothing, so I am thankful to have worked with someone so professional from beginning to end that I look forward to a next time. read more
