One + One Event

One + One Event is a corporate event agency founded in Edmonton, Alberta, in 2023. They plan and produce events that strengthen teams, recognize achievements, and create lasting impressions across Edmonton, Calgary, and beyond. Their services include authority building events, conferences, industry awards, grand openings, corporate celebrations, and team building.

The agency specializes in events for home services companies with 30 or more employees, such as HVAC, plumbing, electrical, and home renovation businesses. They also serve finance, insurance, real estate, legal firms, e-commerce, government contractors, engineering, manufacturing, automotive, and wholesale distribution industries.

Clients can request a proposal through their website to get a straight answer on whether the agency is the right fit and what the event will cost. They respond to inquiries within one business day if the event is time-sensitive.

For galas and large conferences, clients should book 10 to 16 weeks in advance to secure the right venue and vendors. For team-building events and celebrations under 100 people, a lead time of 6 to 8 weeks is usually workable.

The agency charges a planning and management fee that covers their time, while all vendor costs like catering, AV, and venue are passed through at actual cost with no hidden markups. They also offer a flat project fee structure for some events.

Team events range from $5,000 to $25,000 for 20 to 100 people, while corporate events range from $25,000 to $100,000 for 100 to 500+ attendees. Major productions for 500+ people start at $100,000 and above.

The agency operates across all of Alberta, with regular work in Calgary, Red Deer, Fort McMurray, Sherwood Park, St. Albert, and other locations. They also serve clients in Edmonton and Calgary specifically.

They provide full-service event planning which includes venue sourcing, contract negotiation, catering coordination, AV and staging production, photography, videography, and on-site management. This covers everything from the first planning meeting to the last vendor invoice.

Some reviewers praise the agency for creating meaningful experiences that bring teams together and strengthen company culture. They are noted for handling every detail so teams can focus on what matters.

The agency has a Trustburn rating of 4.4 out of 5 from 5 reviews. They have produced events like a black-tie masquerade gala at the Chateau Lacombe Hotel and a jazz gala at the Fairmont Hotel Macdonald.

They handle events from 20 to 2,000 attendees, with most work falling in the 50 to 500 range. There is no hard upper limit as they can scale for larger productions.

The agency builds contingency plans into their production for outdoor events to handle Alberta's unpredictable weather. They also manage logistics, AV production, and coordination for their events.

They offer event planning, event promotion, event production, sponsorship and partnerships, and venue and vendor coordination as core services. Content creation is also one of their six core services.
