Event Kings

What Event Kings does

Event Kings is a privately held, full-service event management and production company founded in 1998 by husband-and-wife team Steven and Terry Vogel and headquartered at 1010 Grand Blvd. in Deer Park, New York, with an additional service area in Palm Beach, Florida. The company operates across corporate, non-profit, and social event verticals with an event volume exceeding 200 per year and guest counts ranging from approximately 100 to 7,000+. Its service portfolio spans entertainment talent (stilt walkers, aerialists, DJs, fire dancers, themed performers), casino and lounge experiences with professional dealers, mobile cigar lounge, games and inflatables, photography and video, full catering, custom-branded specialty food items, balloon and floral decor, and virtual experiences. Vertical integration is delivered through four in-house divisions: Casino Kings (casino entertainment), King Lily Floral (floral design), Weddings by Event Kings (wedding planning), and Promo Kings (over 700,000 promotional product SKUs).

The company's core technology is operational rather than software-based: a direct-source service model that consolidates planning, entertainment, catering, decor, and logistics under one roof, supported by warehouse facilities at its Deer Park headquarters and a sales-led go-to-market motion. Notable client engagements include Nikon (20+ years of holiday and employee appreciation events), Broadridge Financial Solutions (10+ years), Fox News, KeyFood (recurring themed trade shows 2021-2024), Coca Cola, Clever Devices, Suffolk County PBA, and an unnamed hospital. Customer segments are explicitly hybrid, covering Corporate/Enterprise (primary), Non-Profit/Fundraising (primary), Social/Personal (secondary), Meetings and Conferences, and Outdoor Events.

Event Kings generates revenue through project-based professional services fees priced per event rather than via disclosed tiers or subscriptions, with all streams (event planning, entertainment, casino rentals, catering, photography, specialty food items) delivered as bundled or standalone engagements under custom quotes. Pricing is not publicly disclosed and is determined by event scope, guest count, and required services. The business is sales-led and direct, with founders personally involved in client relationships from consultation through execution. The company employs 11-50 staff including founders, full-time event planners and producers, a dedicated floral designer, a managing partner for Promo Kings, and part-time field staff and interns, with no disclosed external investors or institutional funding.
