Word Choice – What Is the Word for ‘Event Executor’?

phrase-requestword-choice

If a company runs a service as "one who arranges, holds, and executes planned events", what's the term of it? "Events executor" seems a rather grim name, "Events arranger" seems lack of fume because what the company does is more than just arrange for the event. They basically oversee the whole thing from the start (planning) to the end (cleaning up and deliver the certificates if any).

You're talking about an event manager or event planner.

From Wikipedia's article on event management (redirected from event planner):

The process of planning and coordinating the event is usually referred to as event planning and which can include budgeting, scheduling, site selection, acquiring necessary permits, coordinating transportation and parking, arranging for speakers or entertainers, arranging decor, event security, catering, coordinating with third party vendors, and emergency plans. Each event is different in its nature so process of planning & execution of each event differs on basis of type of event.

The event manager is the person who plans and executes the event, taking responsibility for the creative, technical, and logistical elements. This includes overall event design, brand building, marketing and communication strategy, audio-visual production, script writing, logistics, budgeting, negotiation, and client service.
