Meeting Management

Coordinating Your Meeting – Beyond the contract!!

Details are a key to a successful meeting.  The difference is knowing the industry, the in’s and out’s, the hotel contracts, the hotel lingo and literally the back of the house.  All of which comes with many years on the hotel hospitality side from Front Office, Operations, Catering & Conference Services and Group Sales & Marketing.  

EDDI offers full service meeting management for all sorts of organizations.  You determine the extent of our involvement and the needs for your program.   Some may be only site selection with others needing more hands on assistance.

Managing and directing your event is a responsibility we take serious!

    Very Trustworthy

    You have made my job so much easier, especially in the beginning of the program when it is necessary to contact many different properties for availability. After working together, I feel we have formed a trust factor between us and that you will be honest if you think a property will not fit my needs.

    Incredible Management

    Diane has assisted me on our largest event by managing the housing needs of this group. As our customers are global, Diane's tenacity and professionalism comes through to assist our customers. So much so, that some have engaged Diane's assistance on other matters. Diane has been an integral part of growing this event - not only in dealing with hotel contracts (her background as a Director of Sales at various properties comes in VERY handy) but also with the convention center itself.
