Reviews of Rare Affairs Event Management Inc. (Event Planner)

Christian Barden

A few weeks ago we had an amazing opportunity to collaborate and execute a one-of-a-kind event with Rare Affairs Event Management Inc. What an experience! All team members showed high levels of professionalism. Working with Laura W. was nothing but pleasure. She is a goal-oriented individual with great discipline, ability to multi-task and work under pressure. She is extremely versatile and wears many hats. She is a great event planner but she's not scared of physical work. Laura rolled her sleeves up and performed some physical tasks when it was needed, always with a smile and a positive attitude. She offers quick and adequate solutions to any problem. And that is what we call an excellent team player. We highly recommend Rare Affairs Event Management Inc. and looking forward to another unique collaboration.

We have used Rare Affairs for many business events and their service is second to none! The whole team are delightful to work with. They listen, advice and execute with a high level of professionalism. They are experts in their field and leave no stone unturned. Rare Affairs is always my first choice for event planning!

Rare Affairs has been our event management company for the last 4 years and they continue to be instrumental to the success of our annual conferences. Rare Affairs works with us in all areas of conference planning and execution, including venue research and contract negotiations, working with venues prior to and during the conferences, planning and organizing all conference-related events including AV, food & beverage and décor and managing the many service providers that help us deliver a flawless conference. This past year, Rare Affairs has worked with us on the conference budget and expenses and was also part of our core conference team. It’s my pleasure to write this review and recommend Rare Affairs.

I've worked with Rare Affairs twice as a performer, and have since agreed to stay as a regular on their roster. I've been in the entertainment industry for over 15 years and to find an event planning company as wonderful as Rare Affairs is a true... rarity. They always ensure their performers are set up with everything they need and more, so that they can deliver the absolute best quality performance. By attending each event they organize, and staying in clear communication with me, Rare Affairs makes sure that I am always set up to deliver my best performance, which aids in making the entire event a huge hit. Many event planners just want the commission and don't make the connection between satisfied performers equalling satisfied (and therefore RETURN) clients. I would highly recommend working with Rare Affairs for your next event. I promise you'll want to use them every time!

A great proactive team that ensured we ran to time, every time seamlessly through the lumps and bumps of a four day event in Vancouver. Chris & Sherryl were always on hand, one step ahead, friendly, approachable and immersed in our teams and goals to ensure we got the best out of the valuable time we had together as we pulled together people from 3 continents to set our business focus for 2025. Great people and a great event, thank you ????????!

It takes a truly dedicated and special individual to be a successful Event Manager and I can say, hands down, Laura is a true Event Manager Professional. I had the pleasure of collaberating with Laura on a recent corporate reception for a client in Toronto. Laura is a very organized, professional and positive team player. Her desire to exceed her client's expectation is evident throughout the planning and execution stages. I enjoyed our communications because she was always prepared and kept me up to date on the client's requirements, questions or feedback. While on-site, Laura had a confident calmness about her which set the tone for the talent adn the evening. The client's event was a huge success and I'm grateful for the opportunity of showcasing the talent she proposed. Thanks Laura for being a great partner!
