Dave's Cast of Characters

If you plan a party or event in New York, the listings on this page cluster around a few ZIP codes. Code 10001 carries 62 entries, 10018 has 50, and 10036 follows with 47, so those pockets hold the most planners and vendors. Codes 10003, 10013, and 10016 each hold 30 or more. Out of 1654 total listings, 1499 include a phone number and 1379 list a website, so most give you a fast way to check availability before committing to a date.

Use the ZIP clusters as a starting point, not a final answer. Call two or three vendors in the ZIP closest to your venue and compare what they say, since the directory does not rate or rank anyone. A row marked Sponsored means that entry is a paid placement, kept distinct from the rest of the results. If you manage one of these businesses and a phone number, hours, or site link is wrong, you can claim the listing and fix it yourself, which keeps things accurate for the next person searching.
