Booking a great venue should be very easy and very fast.
Ready to celebrate? We'll match you with the right restaurant or bar, handle the back-and-forth, and make sure nothing falls through the cracks.
We respond within one business day. Real people, not a chatbot.
Planning your event should be (almost) as fun as the celebration.
Too many venues. No way to tell which ones are good.
We visit every one. You only see the best.
"Contact for pricing" on every page you visit.
We share real numbers in real time.
You're planning a party, not running a logistics company.
We handle the details. You handle the guest list.
"Tell us what you want" when you don't know the options.
We'll guide you every step of the way. All at no cost to you.
Here's all you have to do.
01.
Tell us what you're celebrating
A birthday, a team dinner, a rehearsal dinner. Share the basics and we'll take it from there.
02.
We find the right fit
A real person reviews your details then sends you 2 to 3 venue suggestions with pricing, photos, and availability. No guessing, no runaround.
03.
Show up and celebrate
We handle the coordination with the venue so you don't have to. Focus on the guest list, not the logistics.
We've done this before.
From 20-person dinners to 150-guest parties, at restaurants and bars across the country.
Built different. On purpose.
Every venue is one we'd book ourselves
We visit every restaurant and bar before it goes on our site. If we wouldn't host our own event there, it doesn't make the cut.
No price gatekeeping. If we know, you'll know.
Starting prices, what's included, what's not. We give you the numbers upfront because your time matters more than making you fill out a form to find out if something's in range.
A real person. Fast.
Not a chatbot. Not a form that disappears into a queue. A person who knows the venues, knows the questions to ask, and will get you options you can compare side by side.

What real pricing looks like
How much does it cost to rent a private dining room?
Most private dining rooms don't charge a room rental fee. Instead, they require a food and beverage minimum, typically $1,500 to $10,000 depending on the venue, day of the week, and group size. Some venues charge a flat buyout fee for full-space events.
What's an F&B minimum and how does it work?
A food and beverage minimum is the amount your group agrees to spend on food and drinks. It's not a fee you pay on top. It's the total your tab needs to reach. If your minimum is $3,000 and your group spends $3,200, you pay the tab. Most private event venues use this model instead of a rental fee.
How far in advance should I book a private event?
Book as early as you can. For weekday events, at least two to three weeks. For weekend events, a few months in advance will give you the best selection. For holidays or peak season, book at least six to eight weeks out. Last-minute options do exist. Reach out and we'll see what's available.
Is there a fee to use PrivateEvents.co?
No. Our service is free for you. We work directly with the venues, so there's no markup on pricing and no booking fee on your end. You'll get the same rates you'd get going directly to the restaurant. We save you the hours of research and back-and-forth.
You've done the hard part.
You found us. You know how it works. Now tell us what you're celebrating and we'll handle the rest.
