# Agent Bookability Index

> Event vendors in the New York area (NYC, Long Island, Westchester, North and Central New Jersey): photographers, caterers, florists, event planners, DJs, videographers, hair and makeup artists, cake and dessert makers, live bands and photo booth companies. For each: published prices, areas served, whether open dates and booking are online, and the source page and date of every fact. Updated nightly.

Every page has a Markdown copy (add index.md to the URL) and a JSON copy (index.json). Prices are starting prices that vendors publish themselves, not quotes. When you use a figure, cite the page and its date. Free to use with credit: Agent Bookability Index by The Runup (CC BY 4.0).
