Private event management for local venues
Book more private events.
Run them better.
VenueSprocket helps restaurants, breweries, bars, taprooms, and event spaces capture inquiries, send proposals, sign contracts, collect deposits, create BEOs, and market their event space.
Free plan available. No credit card required to start.
Built for local hospitality venues
The simple path from inquiry to BEO
Stop managing private events through email and spreadsheets
Most venues lose private event leads because they respond too slowly, send confusing PDFs, or never follow up. VenueSprocket gives you a fast inquiry form, a simple proposal builder, online contract signing, Stripe deposit collection, and BEO generation โ all from the same event record. No separate tools, no copy-pasting between systems.
Start free, upgrade when it earns its place
Your inquiry page is free and live as soon as you sign up. Paid plans start at $29/mo. A private event's booking value is gross revenue, not profit - compare the plan cost with what one extra booking actually leaves you after food, labor, and fees.
What's included
Everything from inquiry to BEO
Inquiry form in minutes
Publish a public event booking page for your venue in under ten minutes. No setup wizard, no required fields โ just a page customers can find and use.
Send proposals fast
Build a proposal from your event details. Set the room fee, food and beverage minimum, and deposit. Send a secure link. Customer accepts in one click.
Contracts signed online
Customers sign on their phone with a typed signature. Timestamp, IP, and user agent recorded. No DocuSign required.
Collect deposits through Stripe
Customers can pay their deposit right after signing. Stripe processes the payment and pays it out to your connected Stripe account on Stripe's payout schedule. No invoicing, no chasing.
BEOs from the same data
Start a BEO from your event details - name, date, time, guest count, room, and contact info carry over automatically. Add food, beverage, staffing, AV, and timeline details right in the builder.

Questions
Frequently asked questions
What does VenueSprocket manage?
Private events for restaurants, breweries, bars, taprooms, and event spaces - from the first inquiry through proposals, e-signature contracts, Stripe deposits, and the Banquet Event Order (BEO) for event day.
Do customers need an account?
No. Customers submit an inquiry, review a proposal, sign a contract, and pay a deposit without ever creating a VenueSprocket account.
Can I send proposals and contracts?
Yes. Starter includes a basic proposal builder. Online contracts with typed e-signature are part of the Pro plan and above.
How are deposits collected?
Through Stripe, on the Pro plan and above. The customer pays right after signing their contract, and the payment shows in your dashboard as soon as it clears.
What is a BEO?
A Banquet Event Order - the document staff use on event day covering room setup, food and beverage, staffing, and timeline. VenueSprocket builds it from the same event record as the proposal and contract, with a print-ready view.
Is LeaguePour included?
No. LeaguePour is a separate product with its own subscription, for bar leagues and recurring game nights. Active VenueSprocket subscribers get 50% off it.
How does the LeaguePour discount work?
If your venue has an active subscription to either product, you get 50% off the other one. It applies automatically - no code needed.
Is there a free plan?
Yes. The Free plan gets your inquiry form live with up to 10 leads a month, no credit card required.
