Your booking system
What is sold, invoiced, paid, and scheduled: events, contracts, deposits, booking pace, and the pipeline.
Fractional CFO for Event Venues
Know what your booked calendar means for profit and cash
Your booking system tracks events, contracts, invoices, and payments. We review that activity alongside actual costs, labor, cash, and financial results to show which events make money, where cash is headed, and what to change next. Tripleseat, QuickBooks, POS, and payroll stay right where they are.
Deep Tripleseat expertise. Other booking systems welcome.

Wedding and event venues
Profit by event type
Cash, seen months ahead
Monthly CFO guidance
Knowing what is booked is not the same as knowing what is profitable
A venue runs on three views of the same business. Most owners only ever see the first two.
Your financial records
What the business earned, spent, owns, owes, and holds in cash, after every event is delivered and paid for.
Your Venue CFO team
What each event type contributes, where cash is headed, why results changed, and what ownership should change next.
Three problems we hear every week
Every month, you should know exactly which events make money, and which quietly lose it.
The calendar is full, but the margin is unclear
Revenue is rising, yet nobody can say which event types or packages actually carry the profit.
Cash looks healthy until the trough arrives
Deposits, final payments, event dates, payroll, and taxes all move on different schedules. January doesn’t have to be a surprise.
The reports arrive, but nothing changes
Pricing, staffing, and package decisions are still made by feel, because the numbers show what happened, not what to do about it.
One accountable finance team
Managed accounting, monthly reporting, cash forecasting, and CFO guidance, built exclusively for wedding and event venues.
The Venue CFO Partnership
Monthly CFO work, with the books kept by us
Each month ends with an owner packet, a working forecast, and a decision meeting. We take responsibility for the accounting work because pricing, cash, and growth decisions need dependable numbers behind them.
- Know what each event type contributes
- See seasonal cash months ahead: deposits, payroll, taxes, the trough
- Price next season’s packages with real numbers behind them
- Leave every month with decisions, owners, and follow-through
Built for US wedding and event venues, working from the systems you already run. Deep Tripleseat and QuickBooks experience, accounting-system flexible.
The monthly rhythm
Close the books. Read the business. Decide what comes next. Close–Read–Decide runs every month of the Partnership.
Close
We finalize and verify the month's results by a set date, every month: deposits treated consistently, accounts reconciled.
Read
We read the venue's economics: cash, profit by event type, booking pace, pricing, and what changed since last month.
Decide
The owner meeting: a short decision memo, named owners, and follow-through into next month.
The investment
The Venue CFO Partnership starts at $8,500 per month; most venues land between $10,000 and $15,000.
The one-time Partnership Launch is typically equal to one month of ongoing service. Fixed pricing, published ranges. The full detail is on the pricing page.
From the practice
We show our work
Venue economics, written down: margins, cash, and the monthly numbers behind owner decisions. No gate, no pitch.
