Find a place for your event in San Diego, book the people who make it work, and keep the whole plan in one spot. Hoost lists real venues and local vendors with photos, packages, prices and answers to the questions you would ask anyway. Save the ones you like to your event, ask for quotes, and book when it feels right. FIND THE PLACE Browse rooftops, restaurants, private dining rooms, galleries and studios. Each listing shows photos, capacity, packages and prices where the venue publishes them, plus an FAQ with answers to common questions like parking and outside food. BUILD THE TEAM Caterers, DJs, photographers, bartenders, florists and more, in the same search. Search by date and guest count, and switch between a list, a photo grid or swiping. SAVE TO AN EVENT Tap save on any listing and pick the event it belongs to. The "Saved in" sheet shows where each place is already saved, so your shortlist for the birthday doesn't end up in the wedding. ASK SEVERAL PLACES AT ONCE Request quotes from a few venues and vendors for the same event. When they reply, compare what each quote covers and what it costs side by side. RUN IT FROM THE EVENTBOARD Your date, guest count, saved places, open requests, quotes and bookings live on one board. You can see what is waiting on a reply and what is confirmed. TALK TO THE BUSINESS Message venues and vendors directly in Hoost. Questions, changes and quotes stay in one thread, tied to your event. INVITE YOUR PEOPLE Send an invitation link. Guests can RSVP from their phone without downloading anything, and you see the guest list fill in on your event. READ THE JOURNAL Short stories about real events: who hosted, where it happened, what made it work. Good for ideas when you're still figuring out what kind of night you want. PAY SECURELY Check out by card through Stripe when a venue or vendor accepts payment in Hoost. You see the full total before you pay, and your receipt stays with the event. Prices, availability and confirmation are set by each business. Some listings have not been claimed by their owner yet; for those, Hoost passes your request along. Questions? team@hoost.it
