Reviews of The 194 Group (Event Planner)

Noreen Hamid

I’ve worked with 194 Group extensively this year, and it’s been an excellent experience at each step of the process — from concept, to planning, through to execution. Shez is a pleasure to deal with and is professional, detailed, transparent, and very collaborative in all aspects of event planning. 194 Group and their team members are reliable and very knowledgable, which makes working with them a very enjoyable experience (and takes away any worries on event day!). I’m excited to continue working with them in the future. -Noreen Hamid, Executive Producer / Director of Communications

LOOKING FOR A COMPANY TO HELP WITH YOUR TRADE SHOW BOOTH? LOOK NO FURTHER! I was hired by the company as a live artist to produce a piece for Harley Davidson's booth at the 2019 Motorcycle Show. For six weeks I had the pleasure of working with their team. The team made sure my working environment was ideal for in each of the six locations and was present through-out the tour. Beyond our collaboration I was impressed with the creativity in the initial design of the booth, how the flow of the booth was consistent in each city and especially how engaged the floor staff they hired was. I look forward to working with The 194 Group in the future.

We had a great experience working with the 194 Group. Their attention to detail and focus on understanding your needs really sets them apart from other companies that we have worked with in the past. I will be recommending their corporate event services to all of my industry contacts. Thanks again! ~ Matt

The 194 Group is always a pleasure to work with. They are one of the best, most professional, most effective event agencies I've worked with anywhere in the world. They know what the business inside out and every event that we've worked on together has been top notch. Highly recommended!

We used The 194 Group for an internal corporate event a few months ago, as they came highly recommended by colleagues in our industry. Their team was very easy to deal with and helped make our event a massive success from both a production and entertainment standpoint. Everyone from employees to clients were asking about who we used to execute our event and I would not hesitate to recommend them.

Shez and his team took care of all of the music (by the band Southbound Soul), A/V and tech for our wedding this past weekend and it was such a huge relief to have a professional team organize all of the details so we didn't have to during our special day. Thanks so much for everything guys!!

We had an excellent experience with the 194 Group. Shez was professional, prompt and a pleasure to work with. Our guests loved the music and DJ Mensa kept them dancing all night!

Having worked with 194 I can say first hand that a passionate and thorough understanding of this space is what sets them distinctly apart from the rest. When the talent is fully catered to and provided with everything they need and more to perform at the very top of their abilities, that in turn transfers directly to the client's full satisfaction and what you end up with is successful event after successful event.

I've had the pleasure of working with The 194 Group for over 10 years now. Every event is exceptionally well managed. Every last detail is taken care of & executed in the most professional manner. The 194 Group is the only group you should be booking across Canada.

We had an excellent experience booking our band with the 194 Group for the Lincoln Sessions at Toronto’s Broadview Hotel. Shez and Kelsie are lovely people and professional business operators - helpful, thoughtful timely and transparent in every regard. They also have great taste in music and entertainment ;) Excited to work with them again soon! - Damian - co-owner and bookings manager of RVRS416 Entertainment

Shez and his team helped with a big surprise party we held downtown. What an easy team to work with to make our event spectacular. The DJ kept us dancing the entire night and the team went above and beyond to help make the venue look the way we pictured. Would definitely recommend and would undoubtedly hire again. Thanks!

194 group, to this day remains one of the most effective, reliable, detail oriented & all the while engaged and passionate production facilitators I have ever had the pleasure of working with. They were flexible, adaptive, positive & punctual, assembling an incredible team across audio, visual and hospitality. I’ve experienced them as an artist & as a spectator & can say no matter the angle these guys always deliver.

It was my first time working with The 194 Group, and my experience was superb. They were extremely professional and accommodated all needs, even when I kept changing the specs. And the event was run so smoothly, the AV was set up perfectly, from the sound to the visuals. I would highly recommend them for any event.
