Creating an unforgettable event takes more than great ideas. It requires coordination, communication, and a whole ecosystem of reliable partners working in sync. A turnkey event brings all of those moving parts together under one cohesive plan, eliminating the stress of managing multiple vendors on your own.
At Simply Food Trucks, we’ve built a network of trusted partners who help us offer a true turnkey solution. From décor and entertainment to technical production and waste management, our collaborators allow us to simplify the process while delivering high-quality results.
What Defines a Turnkey Event?
A turnkey event is one where the major logistical components are already assembled, coordinated, and ready for action. Instead of juggling a dozen vendors, contracts, and questions, planners receive a unified solution with simplified communication, consolidated invoicing, and one main point of contact.
In other words, you get to skip the chaotic part and head straight to the good part: delivering an exceptional experience for your attendees.
Simply Food Trucks handles the big picture while our specialized vendor partners
handle their domains of expertise. Together, we give you an event that feels effortless.
Catering and Food Service
Simply Food Trucks brings together the best of mobile dining and creative catering to offer menus that feel fresh, customizable, and genuinely fun. Food trucks give guests the freedom to move, mingle, and explore globally inspired flavors, all while accommodating vegan, vegetarian, gluten-free, and other dietary needs with ease. Our trucks can set up almost anywhere, making them ideal for venues without in-house catering, and many of our partners can transition seamlessly to indoor service with buffet spreads, plated options, or chef-attended stations. We also work with a variety of indoor-friendly carts and interactive culinary experiences, from make-your-own charcuterie boards to roaming oyster shuckers. Whether you’re planning a large gathering or an intimate celebration, our network delivers great food, flexible formats,
and engaging service that helps the meal become an experience in itself.
Entertainment and Guest Engagement
Entertainment and Music, emcees, interactive elements, and immersive experiences shape the energy of your event. We partner with entertainment specialists like SiFi Entertainment, whose high-impact performances, DJ services, and custom activations help create a memorable atmosphere from the moment guests arrive. We coordinate closely on layouts, power needs, and timing to ensure entertainment is seamlessly integrated into the event flow.
"Strong event partnerships are built on clear communication, reliability, and shared standards for quality. Working with Simply Food Trucks has always been seamless. Their team is organized, responsive, and makes it easy for us to deliver a turnkey experience for planners. When vendors operate as a unified team, the entire event feels elevated for the client." – Simon Rimmer, SiFi Entertainment
Décor, Styling, and Theming
A well-designed environment sets the tone the moment guests arrive. Through creative partners like EventScapes, we help translate brand colors, themes, and visual storytelling into décor that elevates any space. From florals and scenic elements to custom installations, décor creates cohesion across the event, from the food service areas to seating, stages, and entry points. By aligning the design with your event layout, we ensure every detail feels connected.
Furniture and Infrastructure
Comfortable, functional spaces require the right furnishings and support equipment. With partners like AFR Furniture Rental and Atlanta Party Rentals, we help source lounge seating, dining sets, bars, tents, staging, heaters, fans, and more nationwide These elements shape how guests move through a space, encouraging socializing, comfort, and engagement. Our team ensures that furnishings complement both your aesthetic and your logistical needs.
"When we collaborate, we pool our strengths, streamline efficiencies, and elevate the final outcome in ways none of us could achieve alone. 'Partnership' is one of AFR's core
values for this reason." – Qiyamah Lewis, AFR Furniture Rental
Technical Production and AV
Behind every polished event is a dependable production team managing the sound, lighting, screens, and technical infrastructure. Our collaboration with Innovent Technologies ensures presentations run smoothly, stages look professional, and environments feel intentional. Whether you’re planning a simple microphone setup or a full-scale AV production, we take care of the coordination so technical elements enhance the experience rather than complicate it.
"Our senior producers bring decades of experience to each show, which is why planners trust us to clarify the process, manage the details, and help every event feel effortless." – Matthew Nathan, Innovent Technologies
Waste Management and Sustainability
No event is complete without a solid plan for cleanup, disposal, and sustainability. We coordinate directly with Waste Management to provide trash, recycling, and compost solutions that keep your venue clean and environmentally responsible. By integrating waste planning early, we streamline load-out and help maintain a tidy, safe environment from start to finish.
Turnkey Event Solutions: Simplifying Every Aspect of Your Event
Whether your event is large or small, a turnkey approach minimizes stress and
maximizes efficiency. Instead of juggling multiple emails, invoices, and moving parts, you get a centralized partner who orchestrates everything behind the scenes.
Our vendor family shares the same commitment to reliability, creativity, and exceptional service. Together, we help you create events that feel thoughtful, well-organized, and memorable.
