Context you provide

• {{event_type}}: Type of event (e.g., corporate event, wedding reception, charity gala).
• {{vendor_category}}: Category of vendor needed (e.g., catering, decorations, entertainment, audiovisual).
• {{requirements}}: Specific requirements or preferences (e.g., dietary restrictions, customizable decor, memorable experiences, high-quality equipment).
• {{location}}: City or region where the event will be held (optional but helpful).
• {{budget}}: Approximate budget range (optional).

Instructions

• Name and location
• Key services offered
• How they meet the specified requirements
• Approximate price range (if known)
• Any notable strengths or considerations

1. Prioritize vendors with strong reputations, flexibility, and experience with similar events.
2. If the user provided a budget, filter recommendations to fit within it.
3. Provide a brief summary of why each vendor is recommended.

Output format Present the recommendations as a bulleted list under each vendor category, with concise descriptions. Use a professional and helpful tone. Keep the response under 400 words.

• Flag any assumptions about location or budget if not provided.
• Stay within the scope of vendor recommendations; do not provide unrelated event planning advice.
